Songs
Most of the songs in the movie were 1930s hits that Etting had recorded originally. Two new songs, however, were written specifically for the film: "Never Look Back", by Chilton Price, and, "I'll Never Stop Loving You", by Nicholas Brodzsky and Sammy Cahn.
The songs as they appear in the film (all sung by Doris Day except as shown):
- Ten Cents a Dance
- I'm Sitting on Top of the World (sung by Claude Stroud)
- It All Depends On You
- You Made Me Love You
- Stay On the Right Side Sister
- Everybody Loves My Baby (But My Baby Loves Nobody But Me)
- Mean To Me
- Sam, the Old Accordion Man
- Shaking the Blues Away (sung by Doris Day, danced by Doris Day and Chorus)
- I'll Never Stop Loving You
- Never Look Back
- Five Foot Two, Eyes of Blue
- At Sundown
- My Blue Heaven
- Love Me or Leave Me

Famous quotes containing the word songs:
“On a cloud I saw a child,
And he laughing said to me,
“Pipe a song about a Lamb”;
So I piped with merry chear.
“Piper pipe that song again”—
So I piped, he wept to hear.
“Drop thy pipe thy happy pipe
Sing thy songs of happy chear”;
So I sung the same again
While he wept with joy to hear.”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
“And songs climb out of the flames of the near campfires,
Pale, pastel things exquisite in their frailness
With a note or two to indicate it isn’t lost,
On them at least. The songs decorate our notion of the world
And mark its limits, like a frieze of soap-bubbles.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“People fall out of windows, trees tumble down,
Summer is changed to winter, the young grow old
The air is full of children, statues, roofs
And snow. The theatre is spinning round,
Colliding with deaf-mute churches and optical trains.
The most massive sopranos are singing songs of scales.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
