    "Cheek to Cheek" is a song written by Irving Berlin in 1935, for the Fred Astaire/Ginger Rogers movie Top Hat (1935). In the movie, Astaire sings the song to Rogers as they dance. The song was nominated for the Best Song Academy Award for 1936, which it lost to "Lullaby of Broadway". The song spent five weeks at #1 on Your Hit Parade and was named the #1 song of 1935. Astaire's 1935 recording with the Leo Reisman Orchestra was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2000. In 2004, Astaire's version finished at No. 15 on AFI's 100 Years...100 Songs survey of top tunes in American cinema.

      Whilst I love these old movies; they're simple, and beautiful. I do think that some context is needed.
      This is a fictional, and idolized depiction of how 0.001% of the population would have lived. The majority of people were a level of poor we would struggle to imagine. Infant mortality, and sickness were major issues even in the richest of countries. Also, 1935, in four years the worst war the world has ever known was about to kick off, it was a very bad time to be a Jew in Europe... Segregation was still a thing. You can forget about gay rights, etc. Women, whilst they were beginning to gain some equality, and recognition, were still very much second class citizens in many respects (equal pay, and opportunities, weren't really a thing).
      So yes, whilst there's a lot wrong with our current world/time, let's not go imagining that the past was all roses.
