This is a REAL blast from the past, but one of my favorite WWII-era songs is the haunting "I'll Never Smile Again," written in 1939 by Canadian Ruth Lowe. Ruth was only 24 when she lost her husband and penned "I'll Never Smile Again" shortly after. The song was passed to Tommy Dorsey and recorded by a young Frankie Sinatra and the Pied Pipers in 1940. The Tommy Dorsey version, which was Sinatra's first big hit, stayed at number one for 12 weeks on Billboard, from July 27 to October 12, 1940, and was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1982.
Frankie's version gives me the chills every time I listen to it!
