Movie Song of the Week: “I'm Goin' Shoppin' with You”

In honor of the late Gloria Stuart, a repost of my favorite Gloria Stuart number from Gold Diggers of 1935.

I hope you all enjoy it.

Movie Song of the Week: “Lullaby of Broadway”

This probably will be the last movie song I post before Easter so it might as well be a doozy. From 1935's Gold Diggers of 1935, it's a Busby Berkeley number that aims to be the ultimate Busby Berkeley number.

The first time I saw it, I couldn't help but wax morbid and imagine it to be a vision from the afterlife. But I guess one could just as easily interpret it to be a dream sequence. After all, not too many dead people smoke cigarettes. Or do they?

Anyway, the number starts here:


And ends here:


I hope you all like it.

Movie Song of the Week: “I'm Goin' Shoppin' with You”

I couldn't find any classic movie song that referenced Mother's Day in the way that I wished so I posted this instead.

From the 1935 movie Gold Diggers of 1935, it's a song that among other things proves that Gloria Stuart really was a dish when she was Kate Winslet's age. And, oh, yes, there is at least one reference to mothers as well.
