My Granny played the piano by ear she never had a lesson in her life. She played this song for us all the time. I had no idea what the name of it was. She left us for heaven in June 2013 95 years young. She lived at home up until 3 months before her death. I came home from work and my wife had our TV on the instrumentals channel and this song was being played on a piano I broke down but managed to see the title through the tears. I didn't know it even had words until I came upon this post. Thank you so much for posting this song.
I sand Barbershop in much the same way. I could attach a tone to a note, but I couldn't read as fluently as it'd take to get a Musicians' Union Card. Sort of like Bix Biederbecke.
There were so many wonderful harmony groups through the "Fourties Fifties and Sixties" Why their popularity waned is possibly due to the disappearance of the "Big Bands" and the style of music changed in favour of the Hard Rock Bands. Thank you for posting.

Interesting to compare this Pipers-only "Whispering" to the Sinatra-Pipers version with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra. Jo Stafford is, of course, the Pipers lead singer on the Dorsey record, which is a bit jauntier than this very fine treatment featuring June Hutton's lead voice. June was, in my opinion, the only lead singer who could have suitably replaced Jo in that great vocal quartet. Superb record!
I was born during world War 2 from parents that both served ..and played this song on there record machine untal elvis scootered in....than it was.my turn...I miss them both so much!
I was a kid when this music was played in my parents phonograph, I wish today's composers try at least imitate this beautiful music. Wishful thinking, right?
+Ian Bailey Yes Ian, but unfortunately, changed for the worse and of course that's my opinion, but never today's "ballads" will equal those from the past and "rap" is the most disgusting noise I ever heard.
+Common211 But God gave us Senses and I think that you can tell one thing from another, anyway in taste nothing is conclusive, what you like, I don't and what I like, you don't. But today's music I don't like specially Rap for me is noise with a beat.
+richard4677 Yeah i definitely get what you mean man. I just like the wordplay in the poetry which i guess isnt really "soothing" to the ears (not talking about the majority of rap on the radio) What do you think of heavy metal?
Back again in the middle of the Corona virus,in lovely Melbourne,Australia.
GOD--They sure were magnificent.

I wish this kind of harmonizing still existed. So wonderful. Makes me wish I was alive in the 50s
This is from the 40's.
Memories of when times were the happiest,and music was music.

Look for the Paul Whiteman version on TH-cam. Was also used as the basis for "Groovin' High".

WOW WOW WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amazing sounds from on of the very best vocal quartets of all time.

They had a harmony that was unmatched I remember thinking CSN was good but the Pied Pipers were unrivaled !
@take5t0ky0j
そうですね。彼らがドーシー楽団から独立後に放った大ヒットであるDream。あのスタイルはスロー曲の聴かせどころをしっかり押さえている名唱でした。あのスタイルが彼らのショウケースとなったのだと思います。
thanks for sharing love the Pied Pipers
Lovely melody and voices❤
so beautiful. I remember good old days some reason.
That is one wicked turn-around at the end (2:20). Great Stordahl arrangement, beautiful harmony.
Beautiful melody and voces ❤
have'nt heard this in 50yrs. thank you so much for posting.
Nostalgia - Thank You
My dad used to play this on the organ in our music room. How he enjoyed playing. How much I miss hearing him play. Thanks for uploading.
It was my Dad's favourite piece on the piano,came to be his theme tune. He played for nearly 80 years. I still miss him,always will.
This music brings tears and memories of my late wife but I do love love to list
Lovely song and singers. Thanks for the share.

Arranged by Axel Stordahl! He arranged most of Sinatra's earliest recordings! The Norwegian Prince of Lush Vocal Arrangements!
how perfectly lovely !
very fine-

it sounds pleasing to my ear, I'm only 27 years old. But I'm now downloading for this kind of music. Stress escape
beautiful !
I wish they were more songs like that nowadays and romance

+richard4677 Music changes, just the same as writing or cinematagrophy
+Ian Bailey Yes Ian, but unfortunately, changed for the worse and of course that's my opinion, but never today's "ballads" will equal those from the past and "rap" is the most disgusting noise I ever heard.
+richard4677 I was going to say im open minded and like all kinds of music but i guess its hard to like something you don't grow up listening to

To be perfectly honest, imagining this song at the end of a great movie would almost bring a tear to your eye...
Ethan Navarro its my dream to use their music in some of my films
terrific
Thank you, konidofine.
Beautiful..
I'm in awe listening and thinking what happen to Romance and good taste?
a wonderful group !!!!
so beautiful
@hswatnik
thanks!!
Good music
Great tune on the organ, especially the Wurlitzer electrostatic reed organ. Listen to Ken Griffin Wispering
I haven't gone away, just getting a little rusty!
Very nice.Later on Les Paul/Mary Ford did this same song
Les Paul & Mary Ford did this song to
Love this soooo, smooth, and sexy! Love April Stevens/Nino Temple's version of this also!
Lovely Tune - very evocative
Anyone know if this version is available in a collection or as a single this is the only version I've heard from them on this song.
有名な ♪Dream に似ていますね。
Am i the only teen who loves these songs?
I love these too
I think that more than rusty, is desintegrating!
