I don't know. I only know that Bing Crosby sang it first, in The Road to Morrocco.

I always hated the ending to "Von Ryan's Express"... I wish the Chairman made the train. Trajan88
Having seen the movie only once, over thirty years ago, I only vaguely recall the final shot, but it sounds much more tragic and powerful than the book's ending.

I was talking about #54; I guess that was the Nillson. "I Can't Get Started," I recognized.
Sinatra sang Harry Nillson? That must have been that brief, lost period during the 1970s, when he also tried his hand at "Mrs. Robinson."

Just read your Sinatra post. The ping must have gotten lost among many. Great reading. Thanks.
