Happy Days are Here Again!

Billboard Magazine published a story today regarding Barbra Streisand reciting the tune "Happy Days are Here Again" in reference to the Hillary Clinton campaign. The song became affiliated with Franklin D. Roosevelt's 1932 campaign and has become attached to the Democratic Party. Originally it was not intended to be a political song. Much like Dan Emmett's "Dixie's Land," it has taken on a life of its own far beyond its original purpose. Of course Ms. Streisand was forced to change some of the lyrics as there is currently a Democrat in the White House.
