Notes: ~ listed on the album as being from the musical comedy "Murray Anderson's Almanac" this

song was interpolated in numerous motion pictures: "Springtime Johnny" in 1943, "You're My Everything"

sung by Dan Dailey in 1949, "Young Man With a Horn" sung by Doris Day in 1950, "Sunny Side of the Street"

1951 and "Starlift" sung by Jane Wyman, 1951. Mr. Como's performance is bright and lively, serving as

an up-tempo change of pace within the second "Letters" medley on this album, Side 2, including:

"You Made Me Love You" and "Like Someone In Love" and "Vaya Con Dios" all recorded

in full stereophonic sound.
