My mom once told me this was her favorite song, but couldn't remember who sang it. When watching the 5th season, Episode 4, of The Crown, they played it! However, Mom's now 100 years old and wouldn't recognize it if I played it. Doctors are giving her about a month left to live, and I wish she could hear it and remember it one last time. I'm going to play it for her anyway.

I had to hear this song as just an hour or so ago I walked through the Indiana University campus on a hot summer night, I believe part of the way along the same path Hoagy Carmichael took when this melody came into his head, and then I saw the statue of him at the piano there next to the path at 7th Street. I paused a moment and it is so real, I felt his presence. The sculpture is black and shiny and in the dark night, it almost seemed alive. He has his hands on the piano, with the hat on his head. Sometimes I think about him, about his little sister dying because the family couldn't get her proper care, and how the only fun he had in his life was playing duets on the piano with his mom. I love this man, and feel connected being here where he grew up in Bloomington, Indiana.

I so remember attending a dance after a rodeo in Pecos Texas in 1970. The band had a trumpet player. A couple, who were my parents age requested this song. I can still see the couples who went through the Great Depression and World War 2 dancing to this song. They were the only ones dancing, maybe less than 15 couples. My parents danced too. I was 18 years old at that time and I remember tearing up. Those people were so into each other and were transported to another time when they were young and in love. My parents, as I am sure all the other couples there that night, are gone now. However, I'll just bet they are still dancing together.💋

STARDUST (aka STAR DUST) and my father's famous history. It has been just 18 years since my father, Charles "Bud" Dant, left our world, and recently I was in Manhattan to hear Vince Giordano and the Nighthawks with Peter Mintun, got me thinking about Dad's fascinating early history with the famous song Stardust--certainly, one of the most beautiful and most popular songs (over 1500 recordings) ever written. Hoagy Carmichael wrote the melody in 1929, later having recorded it at the Gennett Recording Studios in Richmond, Indiana. Later lyrics were added by Mitchell Parish. But, as I have heard my own father tell this story many times and which has been recounted in Richard Sudhalter's Stardust Melody ...had it not been for my father's association with Hoagy Carmichael, Stardust may have had a different journey. So indulge me: Just before his college days, Dad went down from his hometown in Indianapolis to Bloomington to play for sorority dances at Indiana University. This was around 1925 and Hoagy was on campus at that time, playing a dance at the Kappa Sig house, his fraternity. He found out about Dad playing on campus and sent out the word for his group to come over after his dance was finished. My father picks up the story: "In front of the house, he had this big open truck, with heavy sides and on it, was the Book Nook's [the local restaurant/bar] piano... ." Hoagy says: "Get on, Bud, we're goin' for a serenade and we're gonna jam." They got rolling with Hoagy at the piano, my father on cornet. He told us about one tune he wrote in Havana, Cuba and they played a bit of that...and then he said: "Bud, here's another good tune we can jam with" "What's the title?" my father asked. "It doesn't have a title. It's just a jam tune," Hoagy said. He starts playing a tune with a medium-fast tempo. My father says "At least it starts on a four (sub-dominant) chord and that makes it a little different." They jammed the tune for 15 minutes as they rolled the truck to one sorority house after another--and they got pretty good with it. Dad continues: "I didn't think too much of it--and I don't think we were always with Hoagy. When we were playing, we couldn't hear him too much," Dad said. The night ended and everyone scattered for home, and nothing much was made or said about that night. The number they were jamming that night? A melody that shortly thereafter would become STARDUST! About three or four years later, my father was urged by Hoagy to come to Bloomington and enroll in Indiana University, and after much argument with my grand parents, Dad decided to head off to school and ended up pledging Hoagy's fraternity, Kappa Sigma even before he became a student! Hoagy Carmichael was a rare musical genus at the piano, inventing songs, playing wildly in his head but as my father said "he couldn't read or write music." As my father recounted: "He had to have me no matter what, because I was the only guy he knew that could write music....and in those days, he would take me down to the Book Nook and buy me lunch." And more often than not, he'd start talking about that song they played on the back of that flat-bed truck some years earlier. "He'd even written out a lyric of sorts," my father said. Couldn't Dant write an arrangement? Dad continued: "I said, Hoagy, I haven't played that tune since that night we first played it. I'd never played the melody before. I don't know the melody or anything. Play it for me. You know what he did? He planked out the chorus of the song, his jazz chorus, his paraphrase on the melody, but not the melody itself," my father said. Finally, my father, if only to lay the matter to rest-agreed to write an arrangement. And that arrangement was the very first time STARDUST had been written onto sheet music. Below is a photograph of Hoagy Carmichael at that very piano in the Book Nook...it was taken on a different day than that fateful day but the date was close to the 1929 date when this happened. The early early history of STARDUST is ripe with stories from many, but this, I believe, is an accurate accounting from my father, whose memory of events was accurate, as I later learned from others who told me stories I had heard.

Sadly, I had never heard of him until about 3 years ago, when I was at my mothers, and she was watching an old TV western called “Laramie”. (I had never heard of that, either). But she told me “See that man? He’s Hoagy Carmichael, and he wrote ‘Stardust’.. I had never heard of ‘Stardust’, either, and looked it up. Once I heard it, I recognized the tune from “Sleepless in Seattle”.. Anyway, I’m glad I discovered it, even 90+ years later. It’s beautiful.

I was 7 yrs in our HiSchool Band - (4 of us 6th graders were put in to fill out the ranks) When I was a Jr, at one of our football games, during 1/2 time we marched, played a couple songs and started breaking ranks and formed a star. The lights went out, people gasped, we turned on little red lights that were on our hats. We had practiced many weeks to make the straight lines to make that star.! When we finished the people stood giving us a standing ovation! In the Spring of that year we took that to State Contest in Miami, blew everyone away ( we were just a small band from a small town!) BUT we made Superior !! Its not as good as your story but…….

Hoagy Carmichael had a profound effect on me. When I was a little kid, my mom was into country music, my dad had all of these show tunes. I found Stardust one night on a record and was caught up by it. Later on, I saw To Have and Have Not on tv one night, and I loved it. I had no idea that the guy playing the piano was the same guy that wrote that beautiful song. Even later, I found out that my mother had been an extra in the movie Canyon Passage, which featured another of Hoagy's great songs, Buttermilk Sky. He will always have a special place in my heart. :) Stardust will always be the song I first fell in love with.

Years ago when I first discovered Hoagy on some of my grandfather's 78's and asked him about Hoagy he said: "When you find Hoagy and his songs it's as if you've uncovered one of music's greatest treasures. You don't want to share him with anyone else, just keep him and his glorious melodies a precious secret". Thats good advice. But today when Cole Porter, Gershwin and Irving Berlin seem to have taken root in people's memories I can hear 'I get along without you very well", or 'Georgia on my mind' or a dozen others and relish the true genius of great songwriter.

I'd never heard this version before I heard it on The Crown. I'd always thought of Nat Cole's classic recording as being the definitive version, but this is just jaw-dropping. I'm so glad I found it.

I've just found out this is the tune on my jewellery box my Nanna gave me when she died in 1983 when I was 13. It won't play anymore but the tune is stuck in my head from childhood. So poignant.

Joanne, there are folks out there that can repair your jewellery box. Take the time and the $$ to find someone to fix it, you won't regret it. My daughter had a stuffed bear that was also a music box. It accidentally went through the washing machine.. It went silent. 30+ years later I found the bear and put a new music box in it and gave it to her for Christmas. She didn't understand until I told her to wind it. You would have though I'd given her a bar of gold. Leaky eyes ensued along with stories of her falling to sleep with it playing. The way sound can evoke memories cannot be understated. Get it fixed!

I am in love with love songs. This piece of music inspired me and some friends to put on tuxes and sing them to people who were in love, or at least working on it. As a result I spent several years performing love music for an appreciative audience, and of all the hundreds of wonderful love songs we played, “Stardust” was the most requested and beloved song we ever did. Absolutely the best love song of all time. The other guys are gone now, and I treasure the memory of those great musicians and the people who came to hear us play the music they loved.

I have a blog, Sadie's Gathering, in honor of my grandmother; hope to have music on it at some point and this song will be among the first. Thank you Mr. Carmichael; and thank you Mr. MacRealt

When this song originally released as an instrumental my parents fell in love with it and when it released with lyrics *a few months later*, their love for it simply doubled. Going forward, my Dad bought every 78 and 33 1/3 done by any and all musicians/songsters so his collection was massive by the time he passed away in 1977. My nephew, who has a love of early-mid-century music, inherited the collection, having been passed down to his Mom, and it now is in a nice cabinet in Colorado. This version was probably their all-time favorite of all the recordings they had. Absolutely stellar!

Look at that picture of Hoagy at the piano, and sometimes with the toothpick or wooden match in his mouth -- tell me somewhere in his life singer-songwriter Tom Waits didn't see this picture: saying to himself -- if I combine a Louis Armstrong voice, a Beat poet's mentality with this look -- I'll have a career. I think he succeeded very well, but the original will always be Hoagy. Artists still sing his songs to this very day. Including George Harrison.

All artists build on prior art, especially today. Take Joe Cocker and Ray Charles. Like Hoagy, Tom Waits is an American Icon. It's been many years since I heard this version. What jumps out at me is how Hoagy completely revises the songbook version of the melody, something even most 'jazz' singers cannot do. 5 Stars for Hoagy.
