Just because I absolutely love this musical number, I'll do "Y", too!
Y
You Never Looked So Beautiful!! - YouTube Actually, the lead-in number is titled "You", which is followed by the song in the ID line. Every time I watch this, I'm truly amazed how those chorines danced on those moving beds=O "The Great Ziegfeld" won the Best Picture Oscar that year. Is it any wonder?!
Z or A
EDIT: Here's another number from the film, which is a much clearer copy. I wish "You" would be this clear! Crazily, they dubbed Dennis Morgan, whose voice I prefer. This is a spectacular film, very enjoyable, with William Powell excellent as Florenz Ziegfeld. A Pretty Girl Is Like a Melody http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RvGd2S3I8M
