Loo Ra Loo Ral" (That's an Irish Lullaby) from Going My Way, a film
that earned him an Oscar, "The Road to Morocco" and "Moonlight Becomes
You" from The Road to Morocco, and "Accentuate the Positive," from
Here Comes the Waves. Also present are Crosby favorites such as "Count
Your Blessings Instead of Sheep" and "Brother Can You Spare a Dime?,"
and, of course, "White Christmas," from Holiday Inn.
