“EN LA QUIETUD DE LA NOCHE´´ SU EPOCA FUÉ EN LOS 50
NO EN LA EPOCA DE AMERICAN GRAFFITI.
AUNQUE SE POPULARIZO EN LOS 70 CON ESA MUY BUENA BANDA SONORA PARA EL GRAN PUBLICO QUE NO LA LLEGÓ A OIR CUANDO SE PUBLICÓ.
AMERICAN GRAFFITI ESTA CONSIDERADA ENTRE LAS 1O MEJORES PELICULAS DE ROCK & ROLL DE LA HISTORIA y ES LA UNICA QUE NO ES DE LOS 50.

In the still of the night as I remember was sung by the words, “In the still of the night, as I gaze out my
window”, etc. Where is the song with those words??? Irving Berlin was a fantastic music writer and
composer who I believe wrote this song “In the still of the night”… So you remember this ???
