    Love how this song mentions the Glenn Miller Band. Wonder how many younger people know who he was? It was before my time too but he was an important part of American musical history.
    He was the bestselling recording artist of the early 40's.
    Bandleader & trombonist (love how the horn section came in when they mentioned him), in World War II his plane disappeared over the English Channel as he was on his way to entertain American troupes in France. Terrible tragedy but he left a great musical legacy.
    "In the Mood" is a good example. Most people would recognize it.💙

      Big on Glenn Miller my mom sang with big bands back in the day
      And sang with Nat King Cole and Billie Holiday.
      Glenn was from my state colorado.A little town Ft.Morgan colorado kinda there clam to fame.
      I'm older than you obviously.Like my kids had to endure my music.I endured my mom's and ended up having a love and appreciation for it.
      60s,70s and 80s are my favorite of course old 50s rock and blues.
      Like food,music is a uniter
      If we'd all have community potlucks sharing food and music
      Sharing our cultural differences we'd all find out how much similarity we have.
      That's how you get fusion like how Carlos Santana blended and ELO blended theirs with classical.

      What a great comment! That's so interesting about your mom. Did she get to be on any recordings?
      I had a great-aunt who danced with Rudolph Valentino, but that's about it.
      You might not be older than me. We have the same favorite musical eras. I was a child when The Beatles burst onto the world stage. Then grew up through my teens listening to all the great bands of the British Invasion, blues, Motown artists. 60's & 70's were like a musical Renaissance.
      I was always going to concerts. Saw Hendrix live 2 months before he died, got some good photos. Saw Led Zeppelin 3 times. Elvis twice. So many greats.
      Most recently, Queen in Nashville last summer. Never got to see them when Freddie was alive but Brian May & Roger Taylor are still fantastic & it was truly wonderful. All ages enjoying their music together. Magical.

    This is the right voice. This is the theme of what the song is about, the vibe you're supposed to get reminiscing about those nights with your loved one. It's not about vocal acrobatics and mindless amusement.
    The mood is supposed to be foggy like a memory, and this brassy and classy sound and vocals is what fits. It's a masterpiece.
    The other vocalist is tremendously talented, just totally missing the feel of this song. This guy, Glenn (?) is a huge part of why the original radio cut was so big and gave us images in our mind of a past love.

"Just What I Needed", "Moving In Stereo", "Let's Go", "Dangerous Type", "Bye Bye Love", "You're All I've Got Tonight, "Good Times Roll". Any or all of them would be great choices.

They made a 2nd video with Dan but they were always playing the other video on MTV when the song came out.
