I was born in 1960 and think that this is one of the best song ever made. Makes me remember Mom and Dad.
Originally "Moonlight Serenade" was titled "Weep for the Moon" which lyrics (just as beutiful) were...
Weep for the moon, for the moon has no reason to glow now.
Weep for the rose, for the rose has no reason to grow now.
The river won’t flow now,
As I lay me down to weep.
You went away, and the break in my heart isn’t mending.
You went away, and I know there is no happy ending.
There’s no use pretending,
As I lay me down to weep.
When you were mine, the world was mine,
And fate constantly smiled.
Now in its place I have to face,
A pillow of tears, all through the years...
Though you are gone, I still pray that the sun shines above you.
Time marches on, yet I know that I always will love you.
I‘ll keep dreaming of you,
As I lay me down to weep."
Glenn Miller (1904-1944) was a celebrated American musician and arranger, considered one of the pioneers of swing jazz. Born into a musical family in Wisconsin, Miller began playing the trombone at a young age. After playing in several local orchestras, he formed his own orchestra in 1937, which quickly became a national phenomenon thanks to its innovative musical style and energetic performances. Miller was among the first to incorporate elements of classical music and pop into swing jazz, creating a distinctive and catchy sound. Among his most famous songs are "In the Mood", "Moonlight Serenade" and "String of Pearls". His orchestra recorded numerous successful albums and toured sold-out shows in the United States and Europe. Miller tragically disappeared in 1944 during a flight to England, leaving a huge void in the American music scene.
