Details

Description

Though initially thought of by Gold as a simple “throwaway thing” when he wrote it for his LP “All This And Heaven Too,” over the decades the song has been covered by many recording artists, used in commercials, and heard in various television programs (see the song’s Wikipedia page). Most notably, it served as theme song for “The Golden Girls” as sung by Cynthia Fee: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xx6lzd8jItQ
