It was the hit song of the 1919 Follies and became the theme song. It was also used frequently in Miss America pageants prior to 1955. Berlin believed this song was in the top 5 of the hundreds of songs he wrote.

Dr. Coil is the leader of the Bones of Cincinnatus trombone ensemble in Cincinnati, OH.
