Bei Mir Bist Du Schön

One of the most unlikely hit songs of the 1930s — Cahn and partner Saul Chaplin adapted this Yiddish theater song by Sholom Secunda into an English-language pop smash for the Andrews Sisters in 1937. It sold over one million copies, launched the Andrews Sisters to stardom, and became one of the best-selling singles of the decade.

The song’s success was a pivotal moment for Cahn, establishing him as a major force in Tin Pan Alley at just 24 years old.
