" They Didn't Believe Me'  This was Jerome Kern's first major success. Written , in 1914 with Herbert Reynolds for the show " The Girl From Utah" the song is quite different from earlier Kern songs which were more like European opera in polite, coventional style.  Sung by Dinah Shore . It is a most tender tribute to the qualities of the man " whose wife someday she'll be."
Even after 100 years, the song stil has something relevant to say about the longing people can have for one another.
