I don't know if these contain what you're looking for, but it's worth a shot. Good luck.

Cassp,

Are you sure it isn't Donkey Serenade?

There's a song in the air,
But the fair senorita
Doesn't seem to care
For the song in the air.
So I'll sing to the mule
If you're sure she won't think that I am just a fool
Serenading a mule.

Amigo mio, does she not have a dainty bray?
She listens carefully to each little word we play.
La bella senorita?
Si, si, mi muchachito,
She'd love to sing it too if only she knew the way.
But try as she may,
In her voice there's a flaw!
And all that the lady can say Is "e-e-aw!"
Senorita donkey sita, not so fleet as a mosquito,
But so sweet like my Chiquita,
You're the one for me.

There's a light in her eye,
Tho' she may try to hide it,
She cannot deny,
There's a light in her eye.
Oh! the charm of her smile
So beguiles all who see her
That they'd ride a mile
For the charm of her smile.

Amigo mio, is she listenin' to my song?
No, no, mi muchachito, how could you be so wrong?
La bella senorita?
Si, si, la senorita,
She loves to sing it to me
If only she knew all the words,

Her face is a dream
Like an angel I saw!
But all that my darlin' can scream
Is: "e-e-aw!"
Senorita donkey sita, not so fleet as a mosquito,
But so sweet like my Chiquita,
You're the one for me.

I checked all the musicrobot.com search results and it's not there. And, it's not the Donkey Serenade either. Come on, someone has to have it somewhere, somehow.

... this is the best I could do ...

You might also try posting this on the 'technics' page ... they come up with some pretty obscure music ...

Here are the lyrics to the SERENADE I think I'm looking for:

Serenade
Our love is the serenade
A song the heavens made and angels played
When first we kissed
We touched and I became devine my love
Because of you the stars that shine my love
Their mine my love

Serenade
Our love is the serenade
A song of sweet desire
No ordinary choir could quite resist
I have known the magic of
A theme that cannot take
Our serenade of love.

I seem to remember him singing this.....

OH LOVE THIS IS MY SONG
A SERENADE FOR YOU
AND MY LOVE CAN NOT BE WRONG
AND MY LOVE IS STRONG FOR YOU

I CARE NOT WHAT THE WORLD MAY SAY
I LOVE YOU MORE AND MORE EACH DAY

SO LOVE THIS IS MY SONG
MY SERENADE OF LOVE FOR YOU

I may be wrong, it's been many many years I hope this helps.....
TR

This one, "This is my Song", was written by the great Charlie Chaplin. Petuala Clark had a big hit with it.
One of my all-time favorites.

Thank You....I thought that I remember Mario singing it...HE was one of my favorites....

Some clips of Mario Lanza singing:

Cassp,

Are you certain that "Serenade" is the title?

I believe that "SERENADE" is the title song from the film "SERENADE".....
TR

Mario Lanza recorded a song titled Serenade on the LP "The Student Prince-The Desert Song". I have an mp3 copy (3.6MB) and can email if you wish. Please let me know.

Once again, this is the song -
Serenade
Words by Sammy Cahn, music by Nicholas Brodszky
Serenade (Mario Lanza), 1956



All my research tells me THIS IS THE ONE. I even think I heard a sound clip of it on one site, but I can't find a full audio version or any type of music for it. A lead sheet would be great. HELP!!!

CASSP....I have spent most of yesterday and part of this morning searching every possible website for this song and no luck..
is this the correct title...I've checked under Sammy Chan, Mario Lanza, even through the movie sites...we must have the wrong song title.....
TR

Tony ... this link goes to a site where the sheet music can be D/L ...
http://www.freehandmusic.com/ProductDetail.aspx?PRODID=112042

The site shows that song is from the movie "The Student Prince" and Mario Lanza did the lead male vocals which were lip-synched by the male lead in the movie ...

Granted, I do not recall the song (although I do remember seeing the movie), so I am taking the web sites word for it ... the lyric and music credits are different from Cass' ...

Thanks all for your dedicated help. Our good friend Cousin Ken frfom Australia sent me an mp3 of the version I'm looking for this morning. Now all I need is a lead sheet or something. Otherwise, I'll see what i can glean from the recording.

OK, now does anyone want to help me find Patsy Cline's - If I Could See the World? It came out in 1958, but never made the top charts.

Was the link I posted for the sheet music not the right song?
t.

chords and lyrics ... correct name might be "Through the Eyes of a Child"

Sorry Tony, but that is the Student Prince version. Mine has lyrics by Sammy Cahn, music by Nicholas Brodsky.

Ok Cassp....You didn't have to get mad...
hehehehehe....

I guess I should have realized that from your first post ...
... but usually people only have to repeat themselves once for me to get the message ... ...
t.

I really don't know how that happened. I'm sorry, the software won't usually let that happen, but I guess it did. I was having text sizing issues when I did that and that's how it probably happened. I KNEW I'd get get it for that mistake. HaHa on me.

Now Tony, you really hit the nail on the head with Through the Eyes of a Child. That's it. THANKS! I only saw the title the other way around and never thought to look for the EYES part.
Thanks
