I wonder why Bing and Doris Day were never in a movie together? They Definetly should've been in a musical-comedy. She had a pretty voice. It would've been interesting to hear them sing a together, In fact, I don't think they ever recorded together, or sang together. Does anyone else have any thoughts on this?

Hi. I saw the show, Buddy's bakery rescue on TLC last week and in it was a featured resaraunt named Bing's bakery. this bakery had no connection to our man, Bing that im aware of, the bakery opened in 1946, I think and I beleive the original owner's first or last name was Bing. I wonder of Bing Crosby ever knew of or visited them and had one of their treats?! It made me smile and think of our man Bing...and if i ever opened up a resaurant id want to dedicate it to him.
Also I recently watched the program cupcake wars, in which a contestant makes a white Christmas cake, with a pretty white frosting and which she dedicated to Bing Crosby, the other contested made an Elvis Presley cupcake with a fried peanutbutter and banana topping/design. The Elvis cupcake won out, but my vote would've went to the white Chrismas cupcake, I think was much prettier. Nice tribute to our man and Elvis, though.

That Would've Been A Very Interestin Movie, And Very HalariousThey Were So Funny Together, And They'd Ad Lib So Much The Director Couldn't Keep Up. I LoveD Their Banter!Loved Those Road Movies.

You Know I ThinkFred Astaire Was Considered For The Role Of Phil Davis But Turned It Down Because Of A Prior Commitment.I Could Be Wrong.

I Like Some Of The Newer Songs,Ilike Alot Of Singers And bandsFrom The EightieS,Like The Police, Phil Collins And Foreigner, ButI Love Music From The 20S Through. 50. They Don T Make Singers Like Elvis And Bing Anymore. Esp Bing! I Think He Was And Is The Greatest!
