  • "Midnight, The Stars And You" is a popular song written in 1934 by Harry Woods, Campbell and Connelly. Today it is likely best remembered in the version of Ray Noble and his orchestra, with singer Al Bowlly. This version was famously featured in the infamous ballroom scene of the film "The Shining", starring Jack Nicholson.
    Here, Vince Giordano and the Nighthawks give it a play at the end of the night at one of their appearances at Iguana in New York City. Vocalist Richard Herfeld joined the band spontaneously to sing the vocal chorus.

    While I was watching "The Shining," my 6-year-old daughter, who was just playing with toys and listening to the sound of the movie next to me, fell in love with this song. Since then, she has been asking me, ``Mom, search for the Shining's Midnight song on UA-cam!'' This is a really nice song. (I'm not an English speaker, so please excuse me if I write incorrect English)

      Beautiful memories with more memories in the making. Long after you're gone your daughter will think of the memories Midnight,the stars and YOU. May she have as many sweet memories at 81 as I have of Mom and Papa with Alice Fays rendition of You'll Never Know Just How Much I Miss You. The version from the film Hellow Frisco Hello. Incidentally I fell in love with this song,the singer and the Ray Noble Orchestra while visiting are old gone but not forgotten TOWER RECORDS store.

    I was taking care of an old friend with Alzheimer's for a few months. A couple of decades earlier, she was a friend of mine who was an intelligent and seemingly, very Christian woman, but, by now, had no short-term memory. As a matter of fact, she made a goldfish seem like Rain Man. You'd think this might be hard to deal with, but I found ways to entertain her for hours by playing the same songs she loved, many times over, like "Dancing Cheek to Cheek", each time seeming like a new experience for her that might have taken her back to a more meaningful time. Unfortunately for her, she kept on thinking her house she lived in for over 50 years was MY house, and, if I didn't watch her, she'd be out the door looking for the that non-existent house. Since she had no short - term memory, I felt that, if I didn't stop her, she MIGHT have ended up in the Pacific, for she was ALWAYS heading West when she got out the door. Anyway, because she kept on thinking her house my house, taking the "mi casa, su casa" to an extreme, I couldn't help but think of that scene in the movie, "The Shining", where the Jack Nicholson character was told by the character, Grady, that he was ALWAYS the caretaker, something the Nicholson character had no memory of. Because of that, I'd think of this song played at the very end of "The Shining", and I'd play it for my old friend. She loved it, and I'd play it over and over for her. As the song played, if she wasn't saying, "I'm thinking about this house", she'd ask me about MY house, which, again, was hers, and, I'd say with a with a British accent as I impersonated the Grady character from "The Shining", "You're the caretaker of this house, Miss Potter. You've ALWAYS been the caretaker, if I may be so bold." When I asked her where she thought her "REAL" house was, she would always point West. Believe it or not, there was a graveyard just some yards WEST of her house, and, she'd point to it. Looking back on it all, I'm thinking she might have been right... all that time.
