This week’s episode of Three Tune Tuesday delves into the profound impact of World War I on music, highlighting how songs served as a source of comfort, camaraderie, and emotional expression for both soldiers and those on the home front. We explore the spirited farewell of “Goodbye Broadway, Hello France” performed by the American Quartet and Billy Murray, the poignant longing of “Roses of Picardy” by the Atlantic Dance Orchestra, and the humorous yet heartfelt sentiments of “Oh, How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning” performed by Arthur Fields. These songs provide a rich musical tapestry that reflects the resilience and spirit of a generation shaped by the trials of war.
