You'd be so nice to come home to - 1943
#1

One of our music site admirer's wrote to me this week. I am going to see about adding that tune to our jukebox.

 

Dec 2011

 

Were it not for the fact that I’m broke, I’d happily donate to your site. But I would at least like to tell you that it’s truly excellent, and I thank you for it. I’m recommending it to others, and who knows? – they might well enjoy it as much as I do and have a few bucks to spare.

 

Best regards,

PS. May I suggest that you add one of the greatest of all WWII songs, the 1943 “You’d Be So Nice To Come Home To”?

 

 

 

 

Written by: Cole Porter

Arranged by: Nelson Riddle

From the Album: A Swingin' Affair (1957)

From the Film: Something To Shout About (1943)

Label: Capitol Records

Recorded: November 28, 1956

You'd be so nice to come home to

You'd be so nice by the fire

While the breeze on high sang a lullaby

You'd be all that I could desire

 

Under stars chilled by the winter

Under an August moon burnin' above

You'd be so nice, you'd be paradise

To come home to and love

 

You'd be so nice to come home to

You'd be awful nice by the fire

While the breeze up on high sang a lullaby

You'd be all that I could desire

 

Under stars chilled by the winter

Under an August moon burnin' up there above

You'd be so nice, just like paradise

To come home to and love

Found the MP3 and am uploading it to the site as I type this. A nice addition!
