I discovered the song on an annette hanshaw album. I waa surprised, I thought

this was a 50's song.

Per wikipedia, it was the central love theme of movies in 1949 & 1954.

Annette Hanshaw recorded it in 1934. She does the intro after the 2 verses,

bridge, and verse.

Bettie Boop was modeled after Annette Hanshaw.
