Miles, thank you for reintroducing me to a new/old tenor....James Melton. The song is the beautiful "September in the Rain" , introduced in the film "Melody for Two" (1937), with music by Harry Warren and lyrics by Al Dubin. The original singer was James Melton who used to help his parents grow melons and raise hogs in Florida and was encouraged to pursue music by his high school teacher who heard his voice...The first movie you were referring to was "Stars Over Broadway"(1935)...Dinah Washington had a hit version of the song in 1961. It has also been covered by various artists including Jo Stafford, Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, Frankie Laine, Dakota Staton, Sarah Vaughn, Doris Day,Julie London, Jeri Southern, The Platters, and even Marty Robbins....Having heard most of those and, recently, Melton's version, I think the latter is more sentimental. Now I have to get some of his songs. I hope he has a CD other than the Living Era release. Here's Melton's version of the song:....http://youtu.be/HM61325M1bM Dinah Washington:....http://youtu.be/OvB6rrnzDM8 Jo Stafford:....http://youtu.be/AsU7dGT2Ixs Frank Sinatra:.....http://youtu.be/FE38CtZmVbw

Here are part of the lyrics to the theme song of an epic movie that didn't quite make it. For one thing, the lead was too old for the role... "Oh what empty things are the dreams of kings When love's all that's worth dreaming of..."

I'm glad you had fun searching for the answer. I hope it made the time you spent worthwhile...I don't think it matters how obscure a song or a movie is as long as one gives good clues. I think the clues have to be subtle, just like in a mystery story, and not generic like some hints that I see....Then it makes the answer more meaningful... Now aren't you glad you learned a new song ? Here's the video from You Tube: By the way, "When You Wish Upon A Star" made Ukulele Ike famous. The second song I was referring to was "Did You Ever See An Elephant Fly?" from Dumbo...

"I Can't Give You Anything but Love, Baby" Music by Jimmy McHugh Lyrics by Dorothy Fields Published 1928 Language English Original artist Adelaide Hall Recorded by Many artists; see #Recorded Versions "I Can't Give You Anything but Love" is an American popular song and jazz standard by Jimmy McHugh (music) and Dorothy Fields (lyrics). It was introduced by Adelaide Hall at Les Ambassadeurs Club in New York in January 1928 in Lew Leslie's Blackbird Revue, which opened on Broadway later that year as the highly successful Lew Leslie's Blackbirds of 1928 (518 performances), wherein it was performed by Adelaide Hall, Aida Ward and Willard McLean. Some controversy surrounds the song's authorship. Andy Razaf biographer Harry Singer offers circumstantial evidence that suggests Fats Waller might have sold the melody to McHugh in 1926 and that the lyrics were by Andy Razaf.[1] Alternatively, Philip Furia has pointed out that Fields' verse is almost identical to the end of the second verse of Lorenz Hart's and Richard Rodgers' song "Where's That Rainbow?" from Peggy-Ann, the 1926 musical comedy with book by Fields' brother Herbert and produced by their father Lew:[2] My luck will vary surely, That's purely a curse. My luck has changed--it's gotten From rotten to worse. "I Can't Give You Anything but Love" was the hit of Blackbirds of 1928, was McHugh and Fields's first hit, and has been covered extensively by subsequent popular artists and jazz musicians. In the 1931 short film The Birthday Party, the song is performed as a duet between Mickey and Minnie Mouse. Lena Horne performed this song in the movie "Stormy Weather". It was featured in the screwball comedy Bringing Up Baby (1938) in a scene where quirky heiress Susan Vance (Katharine Hepburn) and befuddled paleontologist Dr. David Huxley (Cary Grant) attempt to coax a surly leopard named Baby off the roof of a house by singing "I can't give you anything but love, Baby". It is also used in film version of The Green Mile. In the 1940 film Seven Sinners, the song is performed by the character Bijou Blanche, portrayed by Marlene Dietrich. The song is also featured in the 2006 Tony-awarding winning Broadway play Jersey Boys. The song is sung by the strip-club MC in John Cassavetes' 1976 film The Killing of a Chinese Bookie. The song is played during the 2004 movie 'The Aviator.' * Judy Holliday sings this while playing cards in the film "Born Yesterday".
