The year is 1951. I am a senior in high school and in love all the time! Oft times Saturday night would find me a the top of Mulholland Drive overlooking the twinkling lights of the San Fernando Valley canoodling with my current love affair listening to Music Until Dawn, "Brought to you by American Airlines." I knew it was time to go home when they played the last song of the night at midnight, "Dream," by the Pied Pipers, still a song I love to listen to. For a little bit of time all is right with the world again. Who would have thought that many years later I would be a pilot for American Airlines?
How ironic that you should mention the music till dawn sponsored by American Airlines, and on Mulhollandn which is a whisper from where I live…I haven’t thought of that radio episode in…my God 70 years…it’s going bye way too quickly…
Does anybody know the location of a beautiful outdoor facility for dining and dancing, in the video featuring Harry James & Helen Forrest singing I Had the Craziest Dream. I feel the video is from the 1940’s or 50’s, but there is one gorgeous raven haired girl in a mini skirt…go figure!
This is just Beautiful. This was my mother's favorite Song. She passed away last year. She was 99 Years Old. I miss her and ever time I hear this song, I think of her. I still love you Mama. 😇💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Every generation has it's good and bad qualities. Because popular media tends to celebrate the worst is no reason to give up on the art today. There's great work being done by people of all ages still, you might have to search a bit more to find it though.
Oh my, what an honour! Julien Neel in person commenting in one of my videos! I'm a huge fan of your music! I invite everyone reading this to visit his channel, you won't be disappointed!
bettyafeia You tell him Betty. I've been urging him to do this song himself. Can you imagine with his four voices how this would sound?! I believe the word is Killer-a-mundo!
I was 5 y/o in '51 -----------sorry to say, I don't remember this gorgeous rendition of a classic. Just hearing it makes me sad, & miss my Dad , Mom, Brother & sister. At 76 y/o, I'm really alone, & I don't like it. But somehow, this was to be my destiny. I miss this music so bad I could cry. --------------MJL< 76 y/o
Understood. Between 2016-23, my Wife and I saw the loss of three of her siblings, and her Mom in 2019. Then she herself passed in November 2023 after being I'll for years. Now I feel abruptly alone many times.
Dream When you're feelin' blue Dream That's the thing to do Just watch the smoke rings rise in the air You'll find your share of memories there So dream When the day is through Dream And they might come true Things never are as bad as they seem So dream, dream, dream
Me son is 16 and really fond of this type of music too. But he has also a heart for Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, etc. You name it. It’s all “in the mood”!👍🏻🎶
"Dream" was my introduction to Johnny Mercer when we sang this song in high school choir, a lifetime ago. Since then, my admiration and respect for this truly great man continued to grow as I discovered more of his songs, his recordings and learned more about his remarkable life. Thank you for posting this gentle and tasteful coda to Mr. Mercer, his life and works.
@@ichinihq Alas, no; he passed in 1976 (born 1909). A quick web search will yield a comprehensive page on Mercer at Wikipedia; there are also a page for him at the Songwriters Hall of Fame (of which he was the founding president) and a dedicated Johnny Mercer website. Finally, there is a very enjoyable book, published in 1982, "Our Huckleberry Friend: The Life, Times and Lyrics of Johnny Mercer" (the title alludes to the song he wrote with frequent collaborator Henry Mancini for the film "Breakfast at Tiffany's," 1961: "Moon River" - which won an Oscar and two Grammy Awards). Cheers.
I was born in 1968 and I grew up in the 80's, but I've always loved music from the 40's. This song is so beautiful. Such great harmony. I wish this genre of music would make a comeback. I'd rather hear this kind of pop music than the so-called "pop music" that's on the radio now.
It was not my era, but I love the 40's music. It's soft, relaxing and very romantic.Unfortunately,the 40's era also had serious problems If some of these star were round today I would pay to see them. I would have loved to see Doris Day,Glenn Miller,Jo Stafford and a sober Judy Garland perform.
Nothing like close harmony. Even better when it is a capella, and preferably a Barbershop arrangement. Then the angels sing. It is amazing when 4 people sing 6 notes simultaneously.
I turned 69 years old in 2022, but way too young to remember this era. However When I started to use the internet 30 years ago I went searching for things that might interest me. I came away extremely impressed with Jo Stafford and the Pied Pied Pipers and also Louanne Hogan. I know June Hutton was in-between both ladies. I think overall the big band era was outstanding lead my Glenn Miller. It is also wonderful to hear Sinatra in the Tommy Dorsey Era. I actually had a lot of favorites from the 40's era that was not my era like Doris Day,Sinatra, Dean Martin,Perry Como,Nat King Cole,Ella Fitzgerald. and Jo Stafford.
Im only 14 but i already know i want this song played at my funeral, it just seems like a peaceful way to be remembered and i want a song that is actually able to be appreciated. Songs made today just arent suitable, although this song is far from my time its beautiful and its a shame that modern music has grown so far from this kind of music
i love this song. sounds like something youd dance to with your loved one alone with candles after enjoying a warm meal. who else is listening to this in 2021?
All children want something different than their parents, but good music and songs live on in those who appreciate such things. Look at Mozart it's not for everyone, but it lives on in those who appreciate it.
@@LJBSullivan one man can wear a suit in 2021, it will not bring me joy. One man can drive a 1941 Pontiac in emerald iridescent forest green with white walls and thin original Firestones. It will not make my hope for a better future any more realized. One person can develop the accents we had back in the 1920's to 1970's, but frankly it will not compel anything of hope in my heart, but I will be proud of that young person for doing so. You don't understand that having something isn't enough, of course you are content because you never witnessed how absolutely tear jerking beautiful the mid century era was of the 1930's, 1940's, and 1950's... it's just a distant google search when you asked about the war. It has no significance to you...but to us, it is everything, there's this warm color speaking to me just beyond my reach, then I fall on the floor of a wet cave as that mellow glowing light fades, the chords of beauty disappearing. It's everything that I want, not the cars, not the outfits, not the dialect, not the vocals, not that ingenious which is technically all of that and more,...but I want It all, everything back. My ideal is going exactly back in time, not a fake different version of it. I know how wonderful I was, racism and sexism was not a quality shared in the 1950's as much as you all think. Or guess rather.
I imagine people looking out the window and having to stay inside while watching the world outside unfold. Dreaming of what this year could have been but seeing what it actually became. It’s been a rough year for many people but I hope that you continue to stay positive and push forward.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with returning to ,the ancient paths , of beauty and wisdom , TODAYS WORLD IS WAFER THIN, A VENEER . AND HAS NO DEPTH , Virtue has left our lives , and a well assembled song like this , tells us how far from grace we've fallen , I'm 72 , and miss these gifted ones . ❤
But the beauty and magic of these lyrics, at least for a breath or two, allows us to glide across the dance floor with that special sweetheart in your arms, and become one in the moment….
Memories of driving through Malibu Canyon on a summers twilight, feeling the soft scent of the ocean breeze and seeing your smile that “lights up the night”, gives a gentle nudge to the clouds as they chase the setting sun in the distant horizon, pulling up the covers on another day…
I grew up with music like this…America’s decline from these days of old is beyond imagination. “The Greatest Generation” the hero’s and heroines of WW2 danced to these tunes dreaming of a great America…I pray that dream can be a reality again! Thank you for making this relevant to all ❤️
I found this song 8 years ago on pbs. It was one of those old music cds you can buy lol. I fell in love immediately. Curiosity is my favorite way to find music
The closest that I’ve come to this wonderful era, was at Elitch Gardens and the Broadmore resort in Colorado Springs…there high in the Rockies you could dine and dance to these romantic songs, enjoy superb dining and glide across the dance floor under a stardust sky….
I was stationed at Travis AFB, CA and almost every night I would listen to The Lucky Lager Dance Time and the announcer always played this at the close. I didn't know about happy smoke, drive-by shootings and you could walk down Market St without fear. Those kind of times have gone forever. When Jo Stafford was with the P/P they recorded it and I think that was it. No one called me DUDE. hambone
ive been looking for a live performance of this song to learn from. most tabs are incorrect or allmost close to the mark. but this has the original guitar cords being played, to a 30yr guitar player this is gold.
Wonderful talent. Pure and simple. I love that wonderful style of harmonizing during the 1930s thru the 1950s. Takes me instantly back to a better/nicer time and place.
I can’t explain it, but the lyric beauty of their soft voices and musicians, echoes feelings of summer dances with Jeannie Cox in my arms gliding across the floor….
I see swaying palm trees, tropical breezes ... my hair filled with the soft sent of the ocean as I walk along a deserted beach.. That's what music of today is missing.nostagia..
And having you in my arms as walk and feel the sand under our feet, and see the last pastel colors of pink and lavender, as the sun settles into a distant ocean….❤️🩹
I hear music like this and I can imagine a younger version of my grandma. Granny Dot I miss you so much. Everyday. When I’m blue all I can do is dream. This one is for you 💙
I'm from Spain south..... Really I love this video and song...... I can't understand but really I love it...... I know English but all English I've learnt was about college and high school..... It's some hard to learn in English specially if you are Spanish.......dont know why but allmots of my whole life I'm feeling and alone and I like listenin this songs.... I love classic movies from 50s...... Never never in my life I have been TO USA.... BUT ALWAYS WANTED CAN VISITING someday.....i love grass,,, forests country side.......trees.......and I love houses and nature with dogs..... Here on Spain all its different........... Always I have dreamed with seein certain places about USA But only its about my imagination When I'm sleeping or pictures or usin my imagination...... I don't believe never in my whole life can visiting across USA....... but all can do in. Thing DREAM DREAM.... WHEN YOU'RE FEELING BLUE...... GREETINGS FROM SPAIN!!
The older I grow, with everyone dead in the family, the more sweet relevance I attach to this magical song by the Pied Pipers…I wonder if any of the original group are still alive…how wonderfully soothing are their voices, and instantly can carry us back to a less threatening time in our lives…
MY kind of music. --------Someone can correct me if I am wrong, but I believe, this is one of the last times the original trio of men, sang together --------albeit with a new female voice, & a good one, in Louanne Hogan. In 2023, oh how we need to hear real singing in harmony, like this. RIP To All. -----------MJL, 76 y/o
Back when music was really music. I play big band music around my house especially when my grand kids are here. I want them to hear GOOD music. They seem to enjoy it (age 18 months to 15 years)

the golden era of music
The best music! What happened to the world that this type of music is gone??? Who can answer?
God ! Was I lucky to have been a part of this era.
There are more hearts stopped, when this song is played, than you might suspect…
To a heart so kind, this song enchants and leaves me in a bliss of a better yesterday.
The older I grow, with everyone dead in the family, the more sweet relevance I attach to this magical song by the Pied Pipers…I wonder if any of the original group are still alive…how wonderfully soothing are their voices, and instantly can carry us back to a less threatening time in our lives…
I think the only surviving member of the Big Band era as of 2024 is Ray Anthony from Glenn Miller Orchestra.....102 years old!
I had to pause it to get over how good this is. MAN do I wish I had people I could sing this with
MY kind of music. --------Someone can correct me if I am wrong, but I believe, this is one of the last times the original trio of men, sang together --------albeit with a new female voice, & a good one, in Louanne Hogan. In 2023, oh how we need to hear real singing in harmony, like this. RIP To All. -----------MJL, 76 y/o
NHKで放送している中井貴一のサラメシで見つけました。かなり泣けます。
故人を偲びたい時に聴いて下さい。
Back when music was really music. I play big band music around my house especially when my grand kids are here. I want them to hear GOOD music. They seem to enjoy it (age 18 months to 15 years)
That's great to hear. My dad exposed me and my brothers to this music, and I'm grateful him for it.
That's awesome! Good for you!!
Beautiful, speechless and honored to hear this song👨💼
Beautiful 💞 Feels like I miss things I haven't even experienced yet! ❤ Lovely!
