Subject: US pop singer Teresa Brewer dies aged 76
Written By: Philip Eno on 10/18/07 at 6:34 am
Teresa Brewer, one of the most popular US pop singers of the 1950s, has died in New York at the age of 76.
Born in Toledo, Ohio in 1931, Brewer topped the charts with such hits as Gonna Get Along Without Ya Now and Into Each Life Some Rain Must Fall.
She sang with Tony Bennett and had a burgeoning film career before scaling back her work to raise a family.
She re-emerged in the 1970s to perform with jazz greats Duke Ellington, Dizzy Gillespie and Wynton Marsalis.
Her other hits include Ricochet Romance, A Sweet Old-Fashioned Girl and Music Music Music.
Brewer died on Wednesday at her home in New Rochelle, a New York City suburb, of a neuromuscular disease, her family said.
She is survived by four daughters, four grandsons and five great-grandchildren.

Another star goes out... :(
If nothing else, she certainly was versatile...her successes ranging from the pop-froth of 'Music Music Music', verging on RnB with 'A Tear Fell' and almost-rocking out with 'Sweet Old-Fashioned Girl'...
It's her version of 'Till I Waltz Again With You' which I enjoy the most...although it was a US#1 it was never released in Britain due to no licencing outlet for her record label at that time...
RIP Teresa...

She was prolific and well loved in those early rock and roll days.
R.I.P. Teresa Brewer :\'(

Oh yes! I've been using Youtube to locate song recordings...mostly songs that I already know/like. Do they have songs that old? I'm guessing they probably do.

I vaguely know that one; I just never knew it was her that sang it. :)

That's what I thought... now that I read the title, it makes sense to me now. :)

neither did I, but the lines you mentioned above were familiar to me. I also knew that the word "music" was mentioned 3 times in succession...and now it all falls into place.
