Notes: ~ This song was included within a tribute to Bing Crosby which Perry performed

several times in live performance and on his well known television specials throughout

the 1980s.  The tribute was again featured in live performance on a 1989 PBS television

special with the Boston Pops and John Williams which included an encore performance

with Perry singing "The Wind Beneath My Wings" interspersed with Crosby and Como

video footage from their 1960 television shows where each was the guest of the other.

This PBS Special was repeated many times during the years following.

Notes: ~ the title of this song was derived from a note in Stephen Foster's

handwriting found in his pocket after his death. Popular recordings by

Bing Crosby (Decca), Dinah Shore (Columbia) and Gordon MacRae (Capitol).

The song was on "Your Hit Parade" for fifteen weeks.
