"The Yellow Rose of Texas"

I like the Stan Freeburg version.

"The Yellow Rose of Texas"

[yorkie]

When the orchestra started to play this song at my son's wedding, (with an excellent male vocalist), my son came to my chair, bowed, took my hand, and took me out to the dance floor. I was ok, until they came to these words,

"When did he grow to be so tall?

Wasn't it yesterday, when they were small?"

That's when I lost it.

Sunrise, Sunset - from Fiddler on the Roof

Good evening Fatima~

Let me add John Williams Artificial Intellgence..most of the songs are absolutely beautiful.

Most of the James Bond movie sountracks (sean connery) - are great as well.

Earlier years: the great Rogers and Hammerstein musicals..and even earlier the great Cole Porter and George Gershwin’s music in for exmaple “King of Jazz” in Rhapsody in Blue (1930)

‘42 was a good year for movie music “White Christmas” and “As Time Goes By” from Casablanca

One of the few songs that when I hear it, takes me back to a better place and time. Saw the movie for the first time back in the late 50’s (at a local theater) while living in Kansas, of all places, as a military brat.

Thanks for the hugs. Always needed and appreciated.

Thanks... for some reason it’s the first one that came to mind when I saw the thread...I remember it from 9 1/2 weeks, LOL!
I have a terrific Roxy Music greatest hits CD that I bet I’ve had for 20 years.

"As Time Goes By” from Casablanca

"You played it for her, you can play it for me!"
Excellent film.
There definitely would've been more to comment on had I found the list of nominees instead of just the winners!

[ClearBlueSky]

I can hear the groans already, because most think it was overplayed on the airwaves- BUT- Celine Dion’s ‘ My Heart Will Go On’ from Titanic. The movie I didn’t like, the song blew me away, and still does. I am in awe of that woman’s voice. I never get tired of hearing it.
I want a serious ,powerful ballad from Celine and Josh Groban.
I’d put my stereo up so high the paint would peel from the walls!

Movie Scores (Soundtracks): Some of the best and most memorable were by Bernard Herrmann - Citizen Kane - his first, The Day The Earth Stood Still, Vertigo, North by Northwest, Psycho, Taxi Driver - his last. I have a CD of selections from his music - it’s great.

Volare from The Hollywood Knights. ;)
