And...I DID find this article very interesting, Tom. And I remember that song to this day. "God Bless America". "While the storm clouds gather far across the sea. Let us swear allegiance to a land that's free. Let us all be grateful for a land so fair. As we raises our voices in a solemn prayer. God Bless America. Land that I love. Stand beside her and guide her through the night with the light from above. From the mountains to the prairies to the oceans white with foam. God Bless America. My home sweet home. God Bless America. My home sweet home." I also remember another song that Irving Berlin DIDN'T write which is a little sad but catchy. "We'll Meet Again" by Vera Lynn. "We'll meet again. Don't know where, don't know when. But I know we'll meet again some sunny day. Keep smiling through just like you always do. Till the blue skies drive the dark clouds far away. So will you please say hello to the folks that I know? Tell them I won't be long. They'll be happy to know that as you saw me go I was singing this song. We'll meet again. Don't know where, don't know when. But I know we'll meet again some sunny day." Two of the BEST post-World War II songs in America. What a time, folks. What a time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
