What a nice story! 'Twould be nice if everyone had a fan such as the story-writer.

So many memories in there ... *I'll Be With You ... In Apple Blossom Time ... I'll be with you, to change your name to mine .. one day in May, I'll come and say ... happy's the bride that the sun shines on today ... then, what a won-der-ful wedding there will be ... " - but I'm actually hearing the Andrews Sisters singing it in my ear, lol.

Oh ho, *I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles ... pretty bubbles in the air ... * - that was popular just when I was a tiny tot having people blow bubbles for me to chase!

Also in the same movie, *Bud Anderson* from "Father Knows Best" was in it, as well as the wonderful Rosemary deCamp who was "Love That Bob"'s (Cummings) sister Margaret, but best remembered by me as the Yankee Doodle Dandy George M. Cohan's vaudeville mother in the Cagney movie.

Sheesh, another song I'd forgotten ... *Ev ..'ry .. little move - ment has ... a .. meaning all its own ... "

And of course, "On Moonlight Bay." *We were sailing along ... on Moonlight Bay ... we could hear the voices ringing ... they seemed to say ... you have stolen my heart ... now don't go 'way ... as we sang love's old sweet song on Moonlight Bay.*

I noted that the sequel had Russell Arms playing Jack's part -- he was my very least favorite Hit Parader - but has a bunch of fans here on FR who come out of the woodwork whenever I say that, lol.

Nice stroll down Memory Lane!
