9. I Believe In You (How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying)


Once in Love With Amy was regularly performed on TV and by amateur groups/soloists at parties, etc. There would always be someone singing it on TV or live shows. It's a song that I often heard as a little child. Was it the same in Britain? Did you always hear it and see it performed?

Have we ever included Mel Tormé in this game?

going back to Paul's question about "Once in love with Amy"--I think that Barry Manilow included it in his "Showstoppers" tour, but I cannot recall seeing anyone else perform it---the best version has to be Brook Benton !!

And yes, I believe we have had Mel Torme before--but no reason why we cannot have him again--
