Description

Although it has been interpreted as referring to the separation of romantic partners during wartime, Cahn said that this song actually refers to show business people who are not working on Saturday night. As well recordings by Frank Sinatra, the song has been covered by Sammy Kaye, Barry Manilow, Rosemary Clooney, Woody Herman and His Orchestra and The King Sisters. Jule Styne was an English-American song writer and composer best known for a series of Broadway musicals, including several famous frequently-revived shows that also became successful films: Gypsy, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, and Funny Girl. The name Jule is pronounced JOO-lee.
