The music was written by Victor Schertzinger, the lyrics by Johnny Mercer. The song was published in 1941. The song was one of several introduced in the movie The Fleet's In (1942). It was sung in the film by Dorothy Lamour (with harmony by Bob Eberly, and Helen O'Connell and featuring the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra).\n\nAccording to the TCM documentary Johnny Mercer: The Dream's On Me, Mercer wrote the song for Judy Garland, to express his strong infatuation with her. He gave it to her the day after she married David Rose.\n\nAustralian singer Frank Ifield recorded the song in a yodeling country-music style on 27 May 1962, and his version went to number one on the Australian Top 40 charts, as well as the UK Singles Chart, selling 1.1 million copies in the UK. It also reached number five on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and number one on the U.S. Easy Listening chart. American country singer Slim Whitman, known for his yodeling, later recorded the song in a very similar fashion. The song is now something of a country standard as well as a jazz standard.\n\nThe tune was featured as background music in the film, Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. It was also used, with slightly modified lyrics, in a Republican Party (U.S.) TV campaign commercial in 1988. In 1998s, More Tales of the City, Colin Ferguson sings part of the lyrics in a scene with Laura Linney. The song was recorded on the album, UAB SuperJazz, Featuring Ellis Marsalis (2001). Slim Whitman's recording of the song was used in a scene of Rob Zombie's 2003 horror film House of 1000 Corpses.\n\nThe Four Freshmen is an American male vocal band quartet that blends open-harmonic jazz arrangements with the big band vocal group sounds of The Modernaires (Glenn Miller), The Pied Pipers (Tommy Dorsey), and The Mel-Tones (Artie Shaw), founded in the barbershop tradition. The Four Freshmen is considered a vocal band because the singers accompany themselves on guitar, horns, bass, and drums, among other instrumental configurations.\n\nIn early 1948, brothers Ross and Don Barbour, then at Butler University's Arthur Jordan Conservatory in Indianapolis, Indiana, formed a barbershop quartet called Hal's Harmonizers. The Harmonizers also included Marvin Pruitt \u2014 soon replaced by Ross and Don's cousin Bob Flanigan \u2014 and Hal Kratzsch (1925--70), replaced in 1953 by Ken Errair. The quartet soon adopted a more jazz-oriented repertoire and renamed itself the Toppers. At first, they were influenced by Glenn Miller's The Modernaires and Mel Torm\u00e9's Mel-Tones, but soon developed their own style of improvised vocal harmony. In September 1948, the quartet went on the road as The Four Freshmen, and soon drew the admiration of jazz legends such as Dizzy Gillespie and Woody Herman.\n \nIn 1950, The Four Freshmen got a break when band leader Stan Kenton heard the quartet in Dayton, Ohio, and arranged for an audition with his label, Capitol Records, which signed The Four later that year. In 1952, they released their first hit single \"It's a Blue World\". Further hits included \"Mood Indigo\" in 1954, \"Day by Day\" in 1955, and \"Graduation Day\" in 1956.\n\nThroughout the 1950s and early 1960s, The Four Freshmen released a number of recordings, made film and television appearances, and performed in concert. The group eventually lost their mainstream following with the advent of the British pop bands of the 1960s. The group did not disband, however, even after the last original member, Bob Flanigan, retired in 1993. After his retirement Flanigan managed the group and owned the rights to The Four Freshmen name. He died on May 15, 2011 at the age of 84 from congestive heart failure. Ross Barbour died on August 20, 2011 from cancer at the age of 82.\n \nDuring its 65-year history, The Four Freshmen had twenty-three different line-ups and twenty-four different members. The 2013 Four Freshmen lineup of Brian Eichenberger (lead, bass, arranger), Stein Malvey (second voice, guitar), Curtis Calderon (third voice, trumpet, flugelhorn), and Bob Ferreira (fourth voice, drummer, soloist) was first established in 2013. They perform at upwards of 100 bookings a year. \n\nI remember you-ooh\n You're the one who made my dreams come true\n A few kisses ago\n \nI remember you-ooh\n You're the one who said \"I love you, too\"\n Yes, I do, didn'tcha know?\n \nI remember, too, a distant bell and stars that fell\n Like the rain out of the blue-ooh-ooh-ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo\n \nWhen my life is through\n And the angels ask me to recall\n The thrill of it all\n Then I will tell them I remember you-ooh\n \nI remember, too, a distant bell and stars that fell\n Just like the rain out of the blue-ooh-ooh-ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo\n \nWhen my life is through\n And the angels ask me to recall\n The thrill of it all\n Then I will tell them I remember, tell them I remember\n Tell them I remember you", "musiccaps_names": "[\"Brass instrument\", \"French horn\"]", "musiccaps_aspects": "[\"slow jazz song\", \"barbershop quartet\", \"trumpets\", \"double bass\", \"vocal harmony\", \"male voices\", \"piano\", \"slow tempo\", \"romantic song\"]", "musiccaps_author": "0", "youtube_id": "-XkbErI_7EU", "musiccaps_rowid": 59} {"video": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPA8RDzl-Ss&start=0&end=10", "youtube_link": "{\"label\":\"Swing Music\",\"href\":\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPA8RDzl-Ss&start=0&end=10\"}", "musiccaps_caption": "This swing music is an instrumental piece.
