[@joanbrownlie1903]

Wonderful-my mother used to sing this song when I was young, and I remember it word for word!

Fell in love with this song the first time i heard it while watching the 1941 movie The Strawberry Blonde with James Cagney and Olivia Dehavilland how just celebrated her 104th Birthday yesterday July 1, 2020.

Spent a long summer home from college in the '70s driving an ice cream truck that played this song on endless repeat. As a rocker, it drove me absolutely nuts. In hindsight, it's still not my cup of tea, but does evoke fond memories.

The first day I learned and started to LOVE this song was a few days ago during music class. Our music teacher taught us the song, and I LOVED IT! Our music teacher told us to find the beat to the so ng, and if you noticed the chorus had changed, its beat doesn't follow the regular beat. Instead of 2/4, it changes to 3/6 (I think). TRY IT OUT!

I am watching an old movie and there was a carnival scene in t and this song was playing. My mother also sang it back in the day. Brought back wonderful my memories of the good old days.

i love this song

[@harvey364]

"Strangers on a Train" made good use of this song during the murder scene.

[@jeffreydijulius4127]

Yep! Loved Kasey Rogers. Robert Walker's acting in that movie was sensational.

[@StevenCarinci]

@@jeffreydijulius4127 Sensational is an understatement. He nailed it the way Shelly Winters did in Lolita.

[@StevenCarinci]

@@jeffreydijulius4127 You mean Robert Vaughn?

[@jeffreydijulius2707]

@@StevenCarinci No, Walker. He was so sinister.

[@StevenCarinci]

@@jeffreydijulius2707 They do look alike.

Even though the dancing doesn't go with the music, it's beautiful and they make dancing on stairs look easy! Try it! I wouldn't!

[@saraheaston9876]

Have you ever noticed the similarity of the first notes of this song and the first part of the music from “Up?”

[@schemer1991]

That old movie Strangers on a train. that song Casey would waltz with a strawberry blonde was played while the carousel ride Malfunctioned in the movie in The Alfred Hitchcock movie

[@pborgia1]

Played by Guy Lombardo's Orchestra with Kenny Gardner as lead singer. Guy Lombardo's brother Carmen and other band members as backup singers. A typical cornball Lombardo style effort played well by his band. It's no wonder that he was populay for about 40 years. They should have cancelled New Years Eve after he died,.

I love how the wikipedia article describes this as pop music :P

[@justanotherbaptistjew5659]

Weckar Technically, pop is just music that is popular among the general population.

[@wachamcaulid]

it is but the "popular' part probably made much more sense back in the day

[@btrfli70583]

This reminds me of Trump and Biden...

[@Ron-kp5ow]

Jesus, isn't it enough that it's just a nice song? Fucking MAGAs

[@mariavargas4266]

Why ?

[@JayPoncedeLeon]

What movie is the dancing scene from?

[@piev5060]

original music 1895 then in the movie " the strawberry blonde " with James cagney, Olivia de Haviland and Rita Hayworth 1941

[@robertodeleon-gonzalez9844]

@@piev5060 Saw the movie's ending the other day - such a nice thing to see and hear!

[@randallulrich]

There are two different dance sequences here. The first is from "Swing Time" (1936). The second dance scene is from "Roberta" (1935).
