I just had to share Roscoe's happy face. I get to see this everyday and often he simply does the same to Tuffy, his kitty. I was wondering, are any of you old enough to remember this tune? I love it, it's really beautiful yet I can't understand a word. How about you?

I would say that I was around 10 years of age when the song played on Southern Command Network (SCN) in Panama.

I know it was a hit in the USA in 1960 but when did it air in Panama?

@rebelann Southern Command Network was the only English speaking station in the former Canal Zone for Americans living in Panama.

In what year were Americans in Panama?

Roscoe is absolutely adorable. The tune to the song is familiar, but it's in another language so I can't understand the words. I don't know why it is--I just listened to several songs and they were in English...but I think it's a happy tune.

If you're old enough you would have heard it back in the early 1960s. It's actually not all that happy, it's about heartbreak

@rebelann I will try to listen to it again. I cannot always tell by the music itself.

Roscoe is THE best, and I love his pictures. I’m not familiar with that song, but it made me smile.

Thank you. It was released in 1960, long before you were born. I keep hoping a current singer would cover this, to me it's beautiful.

@rebelann I thought for sure I would have heard it on a show or older movie.

Roscoe is certainly a cute dog. Tuffy must enjoy their interactions. I remember this song. I haven't heard it in years. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you. Yes, Tuffy loves to play with him. It is such a pretty song. I love the Japanese language but learning it is not easy

I am so happy to see Roscoe's happy face, he is such a lovely pet. I am old enough to remember this tune, I even guessed this tune right during a competition in a cafe in Key West. I was the only one to remember.

That's awesome. We have a substantial asian community here so some still remember it but back in 1960 there was a large contingent of Japanese troops with their families living on Fort Bliss and our radio stations constantly played this song back then

@rebelann This song has been translated to Italian, but the title was not changed. Claudio Villa sang this song. He was the favorite singer of my Mom, so I often heard this song.

It played on our radio stations for months and even on the oldies station in the 70s, here, because of Ft Bliss, we had a fairly large Asian community.

Roscoe looks so happy. I love that song. My daddy brought me back a jewelry box from Japan that plays that melody.
