"Say it With Music" 1938 voc: Ethel Merman, with Alfred Newman Orch.
"Soft Lights and Sweet Music" 1932 Lud Gluskin Orch. recorded in Paris

"Say it With Music" is Alfred Newman's 1938 reinterpretation of the Whiteman sound of 1921. As a story point for the movie, the song advances the period to a more sophisticated and elegant delivery of dance music, making Ragtime passe. It's interesting to compare the Whiteman 1921 recording of the song with this soundtrack piece -- the tempo is identical, but the 20th Century Fox chart is glamourized in typical Hollywood fashion. The old fogie fox-trot sound was made palatable for the Swing generation. ....and, of course, the outcome has a dreamlike musical sweetness crossing the boundaries of 17 years.
