For 1920's - 1930's music ALL THE TIME - check your internet for Loud City - Radio Dismuke
- they play 24 hrs. a day & even do the commercials. FANTASTIC STUFF !!!!

[@WillAdamsmusic]

such a gorgeous melody.

[@ianboard544]

I like this tune - the perfect foxtrot for a society party on a summer evening.

[@ftsjr]

1920-1950 was a great era in music.

[@scotnick59]

Yes: it truly was the Golden Era of Pop Music bar none

[@b5b9]

jeszcze jedna perla!

[@barbcard]

You came to me out of Bydgoszcz! Wonderful collage of cities--or are they all of Old Warsaw? Yet 1:10 looks like the Brooklyn Bridge.. Best of all, 1:30 or so; truly Hopper-esque.

@fromthesidelines That 1934 Fleischer Popeye cartoon was my first introduction
to this classic piece of music.

[@ninajey7547]

I'm pretty sure it's Django Reinhardt's version of Out of Nowere - Paris, 28.04.1937 in Manhattan Murder Mystery soundtrack, not this one.

[@guitaress1]

I love this song. Why does the singer have a funny accent--"you took my haart and found it free" what is that?

[@RaptorJesus.]

perfect music for a bit of Fallout :)

[@julianbonser]

The singer sounds rather like Jack Buchanan - a little clipped and British. The song 'Out of nowhere' was written by Johnny Green, who wrote a number of song for a show Buchanan was appearing in, so there's a strong likelihoood that the vocalist is Mr Buchanan.

[@ftsjr]

@cha5 Mine too. A very funny cartoon.

[@dick12235]

Again: Thanks.

[@vanness5]

The first one had a better soundtrack. But our war is less threatening to MY life.... yay 2009~

[@LewStone07]

Certainly not Jack Buchanan, not sure who it is though

[@BuyBenco]

I know the singer isn't Bing, but the guy tries to imitate his Irish cry when he has a long note

[@abolishgovernment]

ayo any gen z out here

[@buzzbaybear]

why do these songs always remind me of Popeye cartoons?

[@HarborGuy]

The music but you evidently have no ear for classics..
