Tweedle Dee, Deedle Dee. Number five. Dorothy Collins introduces a lovely ballad making it's first appearance on the survey tonight. How important can it be? How important can it be that I tasted of a lip that was long before you came to me with the wonder of your kiss? So, the story got around of an old romance and me. But it happened oh so long ago. How important can it be? Mine was a young and a foolish heart seeking love at every turn. But I have grown so much wiser now. Even foolish hearts can learn. Let the past just fade away. Why get lost in yesterday? The important thing is here and now. And our love is here to stay. Let the past just fade away. Why get lost in yesterday? The important thing is here and now. And our love is here to stay. Time for the Richard Hutt Nut extra. It's the Hit Parade Dancers, Raymond Scott and the orchestra in a dynamic version of the Hawaiian War Chant. Number seven on the survey. Giselle MacKenzie finds that it is better to give than to receive as she sings, "That's all I want from you." A little love that slowly grows and grows, not one that comes and goes. That's all I want from you. A sunny day with hopes up to the sky, a kiss and no goodbye. That's all I want from you. Don't let me down or show me that you care. Remember when you give, you also get your share. Don't let me down, I have no time to waste. Tomorrow might not come when dreamers dream too late. A little love that slowly grows and grows, not one that comes and goes. That's all I want from you. Don't let me down. Oh, show me that you care. Remember when you give, you also get your share. Don't let me down. I have no time to waste. Tomorrow might not come when dreamers dream too late. A little love that slowly grows and grows, not one that comes and goes. That's all I want from you. That's all I want from you. Now, let's go backstage and join Julia Meade. Say, Snooky, here's one for you. What takes 1 hour and lasts 6 months? Well, I could never figure figures, Julia, but something tells me the answer is Quick. Right, Snooky. Quick, the wonderful new Richard Hudnut Home Permanent, has a 10-minute waving lotion and takes just 1 hour from start to setting. Excuse me, Julia. I was completely finished with my Quick Wave in just 56 minutes. And that included everything, didn't it, Kay? Mhm. Winding, waving, and that wonderful easy one-step neutralizing. No other home permanent that fast. Quick has lanolin, too, to give your hair a healthy shine. And the exclusive Quick Wave Vitalizer locks in curls to last at least 6 months. Kay's had her Quick Wave since our show opened, and you couldn't ask for prettier, springier curls than hers. So, for a home permanent that's both quick and beautifully long-lasting, switch to Quick by Richard Hudnut. Super, regular, or gentle. Survey song number three. Here's Snooky Lanson with a rousing frontier tale that captures third place this week. The ballad of Davy Crockett. Davy, Davy Crockett, the king of the wild frontier. Born on mountain top, Tennessee, greenest state in the land of the free, raised in the woods, so he knew every tree, killed him a bar when he was only three. Davy, Davy Crockett, the king of the wild frontier. When he lost his love, his grief was gone. In his heart, he wanted to leave it all, lose himself in the forest tall. But he answered instead his country's call. Davy, Davy Crockett, choice of the whole frontier. He went off to Congress and served a spell, mixing up the government laws as well, took hold of Washington, so he could tell, patched up the in the Liberty Bell. Davy, Davy Crockett, serving his country well. When he come home, his politicking done, the big western march had just begun. So he packed up his gear and his trusty gun, and lit out a grinnin' to follow the sun. Davy, Davy Crockett, leading the pioneers. His land is biggest, his land is best. From grassy plains to the mountain crest, he's ahead of us all unbeaten the test, following his legend riding to the west. Davy, Davy Crockett, the king of the wild frontier. King of the wild frontier. Number two on the survey. It's spring housecleaning time. As Russell Arms sings the number two melody, sincerely. Sincerely. Oh, yes, sincerely. Cuz I love you so dearly. Please say you'll be mine. Sincerely. Oh, you know how I love you. I'll do anything for you. Please say you'll be mine. Oh, Lord, won't you tell me why I love that girl so? She doesn't want me, but I'll never, never, never, never let her go. Sincerely. Oh, you know how I love you. I'll do anything for you. Please say you'll be mine. Please say you'll be mine. Survey song number six. Introducing Dorothy Collins and her wonder horse, Coco Mo. Coco Mo, Coco Mo, Coco Mo, Coco Mo, Coco Mo, Coco Mo, Coco Mo. Talk to me, baby. Whisper in my ear.
