"Hi-Lili, Hi Lo" from "Lili".
OK, girls and boys, back to the 50s: This classic pop tune was written in '52 (GREAT YEAR!) by Bronislau Kaper and Helen Deutsch. First recorded in '52 by Dinah Shore. Featured in a '53 Leslie Caron film and recorded by her and Mel Ferrer that same year (#30 U.S.). Covered by Richard Chamberlain (yes, as in Dr. Kildare, Father Ralph and Anjin-san!) in '63 (B-side "All I Have To Do Is Dream"), peaking at #64 US and #20 UK. Song? Film? For EXTRA, EXTRA credit, who remembers the lyrics that we sang to the song's melody during our Kindergarten graduation at Academia San Jose?
Answer: "Hi-Lili, Hi Lo". Featured in the 1953 Leslie Caron film "Lili".
