Saturday Music Post - As Time Goes By
"As Time Goes By" is immediately recognizable from Dooley Wilson's 1942 performance in Casablanca, but Herman Hupfeld actually wrote it in 1931 for the forgettable Broadway musical Everybody's Welcome. It was first recorded by Rudy Vallee in 1931, and of course covered many times since then. The American Film Institute voted it the number two movie song of the twentieth century ("Over the Rainbow" was first).

As Time Goes By" truly captures the essence of nostalgia, much like the classic gameplay of Papa's Pizzeria, where every order brings back fond memories. It's fascinating how a song from a Broadway musical can achieve such timelessness, similar to how games can evoke cherished moments. The legacy of Dooley Wilson's performance is remarkable, and it's interesting to see how music and gaming both create lasting impressions on our hearts.

"Thanks for sharing this lovely piece! 'As Time Goes By' is truly timeless and continues to evoke a sense of nostalgia and emotion no matter how many times I hear it. It’s amazing how music can transcend generations and still carry the same weight and meaning. The way you tied this song to broader reflections on time and memory really struck a chord with me. I look forward to reading more of your Saturday music posts!"
