Song of the Day: This Time the Dream’s on Me

The song of the day for Saturday, August 24, 2019, is “This Time the Dream’s on Me.”

About This Song

“This Time the Dream’s on Me” was written in 1941 by Harold Arlen and Johnny Mercer for the 1941 film musical, Blues in the Night which also featured the title song. Blues in the Night is a somewhat film noir musical about a down-on-their-luck band that plays blues music.

About This Version

Tony Bennett recorded “This Time the Dream’s on Me” in 1960 for his album Tony Bennett Sings A String Of Harold Arlen. The entire album was arranged and conducted by Glenn Osser.

“This Time the Dream’s on Me,” as well as Tony Bennett Sings A String Of Harold Arlen, is available from iTunes.
