- This song was recorded in stereo, but mixed down to mono for the film's release. Fortunately, these stereo tracks were saved and transferred to 1/4" tape in the 1950s.
"Opera vs. Jazz" by Roger Edens (I think)
"You Are My Lucky Star" by Nacio Herb Brown and Arthur Freed
"Figaro" by Roger Edens (based on Rossini)
"Broadway Rhythm" by Nacio Herb Brown and Arthur Freed
"Lucia di Lammermoor" by Gaetano Donizetti
I've included an unused portion of the song. Also, notice that Judy misses her entrance at :35.
1:43 is the best part PERIODT 😌💅
Swing wins forever. Forever. And always.
Is that why classical has been around for nearly 500 years, and swing died out in the 1960's?
I love this 1939 MGM classic movie Babes in Arms! The legendary, adorable, very pretty, very intelligent and extremely talented Judy Garland performs this number perfectly! I can't fathom why part of this number was deleted! Everyone in this movie does a great job!
Never heard of Betty.this type of duet best with Judy and Deanna
love this musical number
Louis B Mayer never forgave himself for letting Deanna escape. Betty Jaynes was planned as a substitute, but she soon quit, without regrets, to become a home-maker with her second husband, a singer with Tommy Dorsey's band.
The first, also under contract to Metro, was the baritone Douglas McPhail, also a standby (for Nelson Eddy). He joined Jaynes in the finale of Babes in Arms. MGM dropped him in 1942 and he killed himself in 1944. Betty lived to be 97.
Jaynes had a short career in "B" musicals in the 1930's and 1940's, but gave up show business to raise a family. She was convinced to come out of retirement for an episode of "I Love Lucy," where she played part of the chorus in "The Operetta"; she's the one in short blond hair and glasses.
Liza Elliott Betty Jaynes will be the perfect Roleplay as Snow White she has a beautiful
Betty Jayne’s was married to Douglas mcphail also a singer in this movie. He committed suicide when he was thirty after Betty divorced him and took custody of their daughter
Why the preconcep against opera.?Its good tp hear both styles and on these movies they showed they could be together Liza Eliott.
Louis B. Mayer loved operatic singers - he hired them all the time and used them to dub perfectly good pop voices!
Hard to understand the words in Opera. Not sure if that's with all Singers
Most operas are in languages other than English.
Voice sorry lol
