Thread Name: Origins: Anniversary Song: 'Oh how we danced...'
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Anniversary Song: 'Oh how we danced...'

There seems to be some confusion here. The Anniversary Song is set to the tune of Waves of the Danube by Ivanovici (1845-1902). The tune Over the Waves (Sombre Las Olas) written by Rosas (1868-94)was used for the song (When you are in love) It's the Loveliest Night of the Year. Both songs have their bawdy alternative lyrics!
