Happy Birthday, Irving BERLIN - Original Sheet Music: FOLLOW THE FLEET (1936) Fred ASTAIRE, Ginger ROGERS

            Belated.

Irving Berlin (1888-1989). The son of a cantor, Irving Berlin was born Israel Baline on May 11, 1888 near the Siberian border in the Russian village of Tyumen.

The RKO musicals are a tad dull plot wise, but produced some great songs from some of the era's best songwriters. This is one of Berlin's most haunting (and fatalistic) ballads and certainly relevant to its period, the Depression-Era 1930s. 

"There may be trouble ahead 
But while there's music and moonlight and love and romance 
Let's face the music and dance "
