Then we have the films that SHOULD HAVE BEEN. Nothing more likely than the role of Nellie Forbush in the movie version of SOUTH PACIFIC. The writers of the show wanted Doris for the part. But Marty Melcher (again!) would not allow her to do it unless she was offered 2 million dollars for the part (a...

That page has been changed to: http://www.songsandmemories.com
The Jukebox is still there. (It is also on DorisDayMagic.com, the site that stole most of its info from songs and memories).

Two others to keep an eye on: CRUELLA is being released in May, 2021. The Trailer for this movie features Doris' wonderful rendering of "Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps" from her Latin For Lovers album. Also, the popular Netflix series, "Man in the High Castle" features a lot of Doris music in the backgro...

Thanks, Johnny. I am glad you are enjoying the book. It was a real pleasure for me to write it. I sent it to Doris and her managers first for their approval and got the ok before it was published. And you should also know that all profits from the sale of the book go directly to the Doris Day Animal...

Now available on Amazon; just bought a copy (even though I have all the originals in other collections). I understand that this new cd has been modified with the orchestra of Les Brown, Jr. I will let you know.

According to an article on the web today, the record will be released on Nov. 29, along with a digital single recording of "I'm in the Mood for Love", from the album. Let's hope both will be gigantic hits. It is being released by Hindsight Records, but currently, that website is down, and I can find...

Too Often, Doris does not get her honest due. We all know that. Such is the case with her music. One great example: "Again" (1949) and "Que Sera" (1956), while undoubted gigantic hits, never made it to #1 on the charts. (On the jukebox, of course, but not on the charts. Some folks forget that very o...

Ah...it depends, for me, on whether or not the list is DORIS DAY ONLY or ALL MUSICALS. For Doris Day Only, my tops would be: 1. Love Me or Leave Me 2. The Pajama Game 3. Jumbo/On Moonlight Bay (tie) 4. My Dream is Yours 5. Calamity Jane/ Romance (tie) FOR ALL TIME, MY TOPS WOULD BE: 1. Love Me or Le...

Keep your eyes pealed. Les Brown, Jr. is working on a brand new enhanced collection of Songs by Doris with the Page Cavanaugh Trio, sung in 1952 but never released. Should be a prize for Doris Collectors.

thanks for the help, folks. We got up to 85. We need 130. By the way, April 1, 2, 3 and 4 are ALL DAY WITH DORIS DAY in honor of her birthday week. Tune in! http://www.radionomy.com/en/radio/songb ... ries/index

hope you like it and will listen...

Probably more than 2 refusals in the years passed. If it isn't about DDAF, it no longer interests our DD.

however...if you would like to hear how DD might have sung the song, listen to the version by Liza Minelli

Just realized this great song by Doris with Buddy Clark was not on youtube...so I rectified the problem.

QUESTIONS FOR DORIS: 1. yOU HAVE SAID a lot about your costars in the movies. How about a few words for some of your costars on recrords: Buddy Clark, Johnnie Ray, Robert Goulet, Guy Mitchell, Frankie Laine, Donald O'Connor??? 2. Regarding songs you never recorded...How in the world did you miss the...

tHOSE who have done any research at all on Doris music know that Barney Rapp supposedly named her after a song she sang in the late 30's called DAY AFTER DAY (NOT to be confused with her hit, DAY BY DAY, with Les Brown). It is a known fact that Doris never recorded the song but she has referred to i...

none ever listed nor can any be found.

and how about this one..another of my favorites!

still waiting to hear. But keep an eye out for the new AMERICAN DORIS DAY WEBSITE DEBUTING SOMETIME IN FEB OR MARCH....You will find LOTS of rare recordings there!!!

In the US 1 888 887 2034 Overseas I think you start with 001, then the number TOLL FREE LINE TO CALL DORIS: Tell us who you are and where you are from. Then, let Doris know how much she means to you and how much you think of her activities through the years. And, of course, wish her a 90th Happy Bir...
