'Give My Regards to Broadway' is a song written by George M. Cohan for his musical play Little Johnny Jones which debuted in 1904 in New York.
Cohan, playing the title character, sings this song as his friend is about to sail to America, looking for evidence aboard ship that will clear his name for allegedly throwing the English Derby. He is sure he'll become a star at Broadway, therefore signing off with: 'Give my regards to Broadway.' [1]
Recordings[edit]
The sentimental song has been recorded many times. It was featured prominently in a solo song-and-dance sequence done by James Cagney in his Oscar-winning performance in the 1942 film about Cohan's life, Yankee Doodle Dandy. It was also performed by Al Jolson.
Bing Crosby included the song in a medley on his album Join Bing and Sing Along (1959)
In 1999, National Public Radio included this song in the 'NPR 100,' in which NPR's music editors sought to compile the one hundred most important American musical works of the 20th century.
The song was included in the 1968 musical George M!, which was based on Cohan's life. Tony Award-winning actor Joel Grey played Cohan in the original Broadway cast and performed the song for the soundtrack.
One of its earliest recordings was by Billy Murray. His recording's short instrumental interludes contain the two closing lines of the chorus to The Yankee Doodle Boy, which was the other famous song from Little Johnny Jones:
Verse 1
- Did you ever see two Yankees part upon a foreign shore
- When the good ship's just about to start for Old New York once more?
- With a tear-dimmed eye they say goodbye, they're friends without a doubt;
- When the man on the pier shouts loud and clear, as the ship strikes out...
Verse 2
- Say hello to dear old Coney Isle, if there you chance to be,
- When you're at the Waldorf[2] have a 'smile'[3] and charge it up to me;
- Mention my name ev'ry place you go, as 'round the town you roam;
- Wish you'd call on my gal, now remember, old pal, when you get back home...
Chorus
- Give my regards to Broadway, remember me to Herald Square,
- Tell all the gang at Forty-Second Street, that I will soon be there;
- Whisper of how I'm yearning to mingle with the old time throng;
- Give my regards to old Broadway and say that I'll be there ere long.
