From age eight he starred alongside his family in the radio and television series The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet. In 1957 he began a long and successful career as a popular recording artist. As one of the top "teen idols" of the 1950s his fame led to a motion picture role co-starring alongside John Wayne and Dean Martin in Howard Hawks's western feature film Rio Bravo(1959). He placed 53 songs on the Billboard Hot 100, and its predecessors, between 1957 and 1973, including "Poor Little Fool" in 1958, which was the first #1 song on Billboard magazine's then-newly created Hot 100 chart. He recorded 19 additional Top 10 hits and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on January 21, 1987. In 1996 Nelson was ranked #49 on TV Guide's 50 Greatest TV Stars of All Time.
Nelson began his entertainment career in 1949 playing himself in the radio sitcom series The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet. In 1952, he appeared in his first feature film, Here Come the Nelsons. In 1957, he recorded his first single, debuted as a singer on the television version of the sitcom, and released the #1 album titled Ricky. In 1958, Nelson released his first #1 single, "Poor Little Fool", and in 1959 received a Golden Globe nomination for "Most Promising Male Newcomer" after starring in Rio Bravo. A few films followed, and when the television series was cancelled in 1966, Nelson made occasional appearances as a guest star on various television programs.
Nelson and Sharon Kristin Harmon were married on April 20, 1963, and divorced in December 1982. They had four children: Tracy Kristine, twin sons Gunnar Eric and Matthew Gray, and Sam Hilliard.
A be bop baby a be bop baby a be bop baby she's the gal for me
She got plenty of rhythm got plenty of jive and when we dance we really come alive
My love for her's so tender and sweet my heart starts poundin' ev'ry time we meet
A be bop baby still in her teens just as sweet as she can be
A be bop baby in her old blue jeans is the be bop baby for me a be bop baby for me

A be bop baby a be bop baby a be bop baby she's the gal for me
I'm gonna find her tonight we're gonna have a time
I want that baby to be mine all mine
A big day's comin' for my baby and me the day she says she belongs to me
A be bop baby still in her teens just as sweet as she can be
A be bop baby in her old blue jeans is the be bop baby for me a be bop baby for me

A be bop baby a be bop baby a be bop baby she's the gal for me
I'm gonna find her tonight...

Oswald George Nelson(March 20, 1906 – June 3, 1975) was an American band leader, actor, director, and producer. He originated and starred in The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, a radio and television series with his wife Harriet and two sons David and Ricky Nelson.
Nelson started his entertainment career as a band leader. He formed and led "The Ozzie Nelson Band," and had some initial limited success. Nelson made his own "big break" in 1930, when The New York Daily Mirror ran a poll of its readers to determine their favorite band. Since he knew that news vendors got credit from the newspaper for unsold copies by returning the front page and discarding the rest of the issue, he cannily had his band's members gather hundreds of discarded newspapers and fill out ballots in their own favor. They edged out Paul Whiteman and were pronounced the winners.
Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper "I love you"
Birds singing in the sycamore tree
Dream a little dream of me

Say "Night-ie night" and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me
While I'm alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me

Stars fading but I linger on, dear
Still craving your kiss
I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear
Just saying this

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me.

Gus Kahn lived in Chicago. He began writing songs professionally at 23. His first song-writing partner was his wife, pianist and composer Grace Laboy. Soon he was writing lyrics to music by some of the biggest names in the business, Walter Donaldson, George Gershwin, Isham Jones, and Naceo Herb Brown.
"Johnny Mercer, who was one of the really other great lyric writers, used to call my father the tune hog," Gus Kahn's son, composer Donald Kahn remembers, "because my dad wrote with everybody and 'Dream a Little Dream' is a sterling example of it. My dad would get tunes from people and my mother would play the tunes for him and he would sit and grumble mostly.
"He always tried to keep his lyrics simple," the younger Kahn explains, "but he also said that young men and women do not know how to say 'I love you' to one another so we say it for them in 32 bars. "
There's considerable confusion as to when and where Fabian Andre and Wilber Schwandt wrote the music for "Dream a Little Dream of Me". They played together in a band that toured the Midwest in 1930. Schwandt once recalled that they wrote the piece during a 10-minute break at a gig in Paw Paw, Michigan. Later he said they wrote it in Milwaukee. Wherever the music was written, Donald Kahn credits the melody and, in particular, its bridge, for making the song work.
"Dream a Little Dream of Me" is a 1931 song with music by Fabian Andre and Wilbur Schwandt and lyrics by Gus Kahn. It was first recorded in February 1931 by Ozzie Nelson and also by Wayne King and His Orchestra, with vocal by Ernie Birchill. A popular standard, it has seen more than 60 other versions recorded, with one of the highest chart ratings by the Mamas & the Papas in 1968 with Cass Elliot on lead vocals.
Doris Day(born Doris Mary Ann Kappelhoff; April 3, 1922) is an American actress, singer, and animal welfare activist. After she began her career as a big band singer in 1939, her popularity increased with her first hit recording "Sentimental Journey" (1945). After leaving Les Brown & His Band of Renown to embark on a solo career, she recorded more than 650 songs from 1947 to 1967, which made her one of the most popular and acclaimed singers of the 20th century.
Day's film career began during the latter part of the Classical Hollywood Film era with the 1948 film Romance on the High Seas, and its success sparked her twenty-year career as a motion picture actress. She starred in a series of successful films, including musicals, comedies, and dramas. She played the title role in Calamity Jane(1953), and starred in Alfred Hitchcock's The Man Who Knew Too Much(1956) with James Stewart. Her most successful films were the bedroom comedies she made co-starring Rock Hudson and James Garner, such as Pillow Talk(1959) and Move Over, Darling(1963), respectively. She also co-starred in films with such leading men as Clark Gable, Cary Grant, David Niven, and Rod Taylor. After her final film in 1968, she went on to star in the CBS sitcom The Doris Day Show(1968–1973).
Day by Night was a Doris Day album released on November 11, 1957 by Columbia Records, It was released in two versions, catalog number CL-1053 (Mono) and CS-8089 (Stereo), though the stereo version was only released in 1959. It was a follow-up to her extremely successful album, Day by Day, released the previous year.
The album was combined with Day's 1956 album, Day by Day, on a compact disc, issued on November 14, 2000 by Collectables Records.

Birds singing in the sycamore tree

Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me
While I'm alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me

Stars fading but I linger on, dear
Still craving your kiss
I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear
Just saying this

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me.

C'mon

I wanna fly
Makes everything alright
Way up in the sky (Yea, yea)
Got to feel alive (hey)

Show me the place I wanna see
I'm gonna make my dreams reality
Oh take some time I don't care what they say
Go reach for the start and take it on way

Can't hold me back it's just a waste of time
Into the clouds I'm gonna climb

I wanna fly
Makes everything alright
Way up in the sky (Yea, yea)
Got to feel alive (hey)

I feel the magic when I fly I'm free
A sweet sensation just believe, believe, yeah
And when the sun is burnin' on my back
It lived always and where (?)

Can't stop me now it's just a waste of time
Into the clouds I'm gonna climb

I wanna fly
Makes everything alright
Way up in the sky (Yea, yea)
Got to feel alive (hey)

I wanna fly
Come on and fly

Makes everything alright
Way up in the sky (Yea, yea)
Got to feel alive (hey)
I wanna fly!
