Movie Song of the Week: “I Can't Tell a Lie”

Just in time for the day that used to be celebrated here in the U.S. as George Washington's Birthday -- but not, alas, for Presidents' Day -- it's one of the lesser known musical numbers from the 1942 musical Holiday Inn. Any inclination to feel sorry for Bing Crosby's character should wait until after the end of the number.

Movie Song of the Week: “Happy Holidays”

Many major thanks to the Flick Filosopher for reminding me of this number from the 1942 Fred Astaire movie Holiday Inn. It might have been more appropriate if I had posted it last week but this week works fine too.

Movie Song of the Week: “Easter Parade”

From 1942's Holiday Inn, it's that song.



Plus, from 1948's Easter Parade, it's that song again.

I hope you all enjoy both versions.

Movie Song of the Week: “White Christmas”

I should post this song tomorrow but for obvious reasons, tomorrow promises to be a busy day and I'll be spending most of it away from the computer.

So, from 1942's Holiday Inn, a song that really needs no introduction.
