Yankee Doodle Dandy

Last night we watched an enjoyable movie called "Yankee Doodle Dandy". It's based on the life of George M. Cohan, a good old Irish American who became big in Brodway. He wrote numerous plays some of which he starred in. This movie is full of songs you will be singing over and over again to yourself, especially the song "Over There". It was written for the American soldiers of WWI.
"Send the warning, the Yanks are coming...and we won't come back 'till it's over over there!"

My family also enjoyed this video. My Daddy stayed awake throughout the entire presentation!(He usually always dozes off...But Dad did say to us when we were talking, that he liked "Yankee Doodle Dandy".
