    Harry Von Tilzer wrote the huge hit
    I'D LEAVE MY HAPPY HOME FOR YOU" in 1899 and most advanced collectors have it
    . The "hook" was it started a craze .Sooo, numerous other oooo-oooo songs that other composers hoped would make them rich followed. This is the only one that had the magic--a great tune, Harry Von Tilzer. a terrific cover and a major publisher! Similar songs with the poplar ooo=ooos didn't get too far. !Sing that chorus with those oooo, ooos In"I'd Leave My Happy Home For You", and your stuck with it all day long running around your brain. --
    The Postcard tells me it was still in the brains 10 years after when the picture postcard came out using the song title that maybe was STILL popular. I just sang it myself
