Just kidding. Alexander Ragtime Band is an old Dixieland song. I doubt it's in the soundtrack, but you can imagine that any musical soundtrack would sound equally ridiculous unless it attempted to recreate the sounds of the day, highly unlikely in today's Hollywood, and who knows what they were.

You know, Hollywood has done some great things with music. The use of opera in "Someone to Watch over me" was magnificent. So was the movie IMHO.

FYI:

That would be 'Alexander's Ragtime Band' by Irving Berlin. Copyright 1911.
