If you love beautiful music, please subscribe. Music from the early 1900's up to the 1950's. In the playlists section, you will find many of the songs I've posted grouped by year of recording.
A NOTE ABOUT CHART STATISTICS: Before the 1940's, official music charts detailing the top selling records did not exist. However, music trade publications would include notices from record companies mentioning popular records, and other information that could be used to estimate a recording's popularity. As a result, modern researchers (in particular, Joel Whitburn in his Pop Memories book)have worked hard in combing through data of record sales, notices concerning popularity, and other historical artifacts from music publications to discern where the records of pre-1940 would have likely charted if official charts had existed. I feel it is interesting and important to use this data in my descriptions to give the listener a feel for how popular the songs, artists and recordings of the time were.

The Four Aces - I'm Yours (1952)
Charted at #17 on Billboard's Records Most Played by Disk Jockeys chart in 1952. The Four Aces cut a very good version of "I'm Yours" but the competition was too great, and this record didn't fare as well as the releases by Eddie Fisher and Don Cornell, which both charted at #3 in Billboard. A fourth recording, by Toni Arden, charted at #24. Original Billboard review: "The Aces, sparked by lead singer Al Alberts, do a strong job on the lovely new ballad, "I'm Yours"."
Written by Robert Mellin.
B-side is "I Understand".

This is among the best songs of Pat Boone.
All thumbs up...!!!
Some songs never go away. So sweet and innocent 😍
I remember this as the opening theme for The House of Warren radio show with Earl Warren on CFRB radio in Toronto.
The B-sharps did a fine cover of this.

And oh how her life was changed. A second chance for true love and oh the waves it has created! There are so many confessions coming!
Why did people stop singing nice songs.
omg she still compels me , vaseline intensive care xxxx Yes very much a beautiful Lady oh my .........
Lmao this is just the 1910s version of dating a guy who isn't good for you.
Beautiful classic symphony orchestra music and arrangement by David Rose. It was released as an MGM 45-rpm and 78-rpm single in 1955, and on David Rose's 1957 album "Music From Motion Pictures" on MGM Records, although sadly not recorded in Stereo.
To this day and Forever no one, nobody, will ever compare with Bing Crosby.
Here for Mr. Gilmore ❤
I was 16, and this song had something real about it ?? Don't remember too many things from that long ago, but something stuck with me .....
When we were a proper country. I miss America! Life, liberty, victory, what happened to those? It will be ours again.
This song makes me want to build a family.. a legacy... to be the father I never had..
This fit right in with the emerging rock and roll scene that was ever so prevalent in 1956.
A wonderful singer on a lovely song.
What a great voice on this amazing song.
This music was the best still listening
Lola loves this song 😊
Tony asking junior what you want a piggy back or something brought me here 😂 😂 😂

American pop 1981
Someone actually sent me this song recently - without realizing that this is one of my favorite songs and singers ❤ Peace
👍👍👍
I got this record in '55 from a friend of Dads', who changed records on jukeboxes. I still have it. It is my favorite version. I got lot of the current hits of '54, '55 and '56 that way. I still have most of them in my extensive collection of over 70 years.
I guess this was the most popular vocal version, at the time that Roger Williams had the #1 instrumental version..
Had her own tv show-"My Little Margie"
People knew how to have a good time back then 😂😂❤❤!!
Born in 2003 and enjoying the music of the greats🙏
I love his every single song!
This tune was the centerpiece of Girls in Prison (1994). Good John Watersish trash flick.
I was 13 when this song was released. I remember hearing it on my tiny 6 transistor AM radio.
I remember, I was in 8th.grade, my older sister would play this song...
Just heard this on a local radio show. Shazam was stymied! A real standout. Has that element to it that makes it really speak in 2024.
Sounds a lot like Nat King Cole and same style. I had this '45 in 1960, anyone remember the flip side ?
Soft Beautiful Voice..
Their harmony is so smooth. I yearn for those times again. The world was so much better.
