    Stars shining bright above you
    Night breezes seem to whisper "I love you"
    Birds singing in the sycamore tree
    Dream a little dream of me
    Say "Night-ie night" and kiss me
    Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me
    While I'm alone and blue as can be
    Dream a little dream of me
    Stars fading but I linger on, dear
    Still craving your kiss
    I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear
    Just saying this
    Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
    Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
    But in your dreams whatever they be
    Dream a little dream of me

    boy, this is great, especially after hearing Max Raabe's cover. He puts on a more classically crooner voice, but it's so nice to hear this oldfashioned...it's not really NYC voice, is it? New Jersey, maybe, or edging into PA. That fancy, silly "bleu" knocks me out.

      Laurel and Hardy recorded their films in Spanish - many can be viewed - there is a 1931 Spanish version of Dracula - that also can be viewed - as to your question - I do not know - but I feel you are correct alone with Spain - also a number, but by no means all, just a few - films shot in Hollywood in the 1930s had French versions

      Hello. I think the Spanish translation of the song title was for export of the recording to Cuba, which was probably a better market than Mexico back in the day. There’s many popular 78s from that era with the translated titles included but the renditions are in English.

Though Bing recorded many "dream" songs in his early years -- Wrap Your Troubles In Dreams; Did You Ever See A Dream Walking; A Man And His Dream, etc. -- he didn't take on this one until '57, on _Bing With A Beat_ -- a superb Dixie treatment, too, I'd say: ua-cam.com/video/QWTphX_9uYw/v-deo.html
