"Let's break out the booze and have a ball..."

One of my favorite "noir bar" songs....along with "One for My Baby" by Sinatra and "The End of A Love Affair" by Chaka.

...Never heard it before. I had just spent some time wandering the halls of an insane asylum and after turning a corner, found myself in the middle of a moonlit forest. I came to a door, and when I opened it, there was someone lip-synching this song... Yeah. Strange night...

That adds to the creepy! Are you allowed to roam the halls?

From footnotes of the recording on YouTube:

quote

Leiber and Stoller were inspired to write the song from a story written by Thomas Mann in 1896 entitled "Disillusionment".
