Zitat des Tages von Sammy Cahn:
My chutzpah was me singing to Mario Lanza. So Mario looked at me after I talk-sang 'Be My Love' for the first time; he took the lyric out of my hand as contemptuously as you can take a lyric out of someone's hand, and he sang 'Be My Love' back at me.
Do you think I'm wandering around all day thinking, 'I must write a song called 'Three Coins In The Fountain'?' Only an idiot would do that.
I must say that it's easy to write nice things about Chicago because it's that kind of town.
I'm a professional songwriter - personal attitudes have nothing to do with writing a song.
