Professor Howdy has once again gifted the world with a mesmerizing one-hour musical treasure — this time pairing the timeless tenderness of Jimmy Durante’s unforgettable voice with breathtaking, dreamlike HD beach scenery, where soft waves ripple endlessly against golden sands. This video radiates with beauty, both visually and musically, enveloping the listener in a nostalgic embrace of romance and memory.

The song itself, “I’ll Be Seeing You,” is one of the most beloved ballads of the 20th century. Composed in 1938 by Sammy Fain (music) and Irving Kahal (lyrics), it was introduced in the Broadway musical Right This Way. Though the show closed quickly, the song outlived it by decades, rising to iconic status during World War II as soldiers and their sweethearts clung to its bittersweet promise: even when apart, love endures in cherished memories. Bing Crosby’s 1944 recording made it a best-seller, and since then, it has been performed by countless legendary voices — from Billie Holiday to Frank Sinatra — each adding their own emotional depth.

Jimmy Durante (1893–1980), the gravelly-voiced, warm-hearted “Great Schnozzola,” brings to this song a unique poignancy that only he could deliver. Known for his raspy voice, twinkling humor, and generous heart, Durante rose from vaudeville stages in the 1920s to radio stardom in the 1930s, and then to film and television fame in the mid-20th century. His ability to combine comedy with pathos made him unforgettable.

In film, he delighted audiences with his eccentric charm. One of his most memorable appearances was in the sprawling comedy epic “It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World” (1963), where his presence — even in the opening sequence — added comic gravitas and a spark of recognition for fans. His career stretched across six decades, and even in his later years, he enchanted audiences with his tender musical performances, making songs like “I’ll Be Seeing You” feel like deeply personal messages from an old friend.

Professor Howdy’s video takes Durante’s heartfelt rendition and frames it in shimmering imagery — sunlight dancing on rolling waves, vast skies painted in shades of crimson and gold, and the tranquil rhythm of the ocean that mirrors the song’s mood of wistful remembrance. The pairing of music and scenery creates a romantic, meditative atmosphere, a place where love and memory linger gently like seashells scattered across the shore.

For decades, Professor Howdy has been producing and curating works of both beauty and thought. Not only has he shared thousands of magnificent music videos — now reaching into the millions of views worldwide — but he has also engaged in wide-ranging discourse through his long-running publication Thought & Humor, shared on Blogger and Facebook, where it continues to reach hundreds of thousands of readers. He has conducted lively political and Christian discussions across the spectrum of social media — on X, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Truth Social — in a manner reminiscent of cultural commentators such as Charlie Kirk, blending wit, wisdom, and conviction with a heart to inform and inspire.

This latest upload is not only a musical performance but also a journey — through history, through song, and through the tender artistry of a bygone superstar who still touches hearts today. At over an hour in length, it allows the listener to drift serenely into a realm of nostalgia, romance, and reflection — a perfect escape for those who long for beauty, both heard and seen.

💫 In sum, Professor Howdy’s “I’ll Be Seeing You” with Jimmy Durante is a magnificent, romantic video album — eloquent, enchanting, and deeply evocative of an era when music carried the weight of love, longing, and eternal hope, while also reflecting the enduring dedication of Professor Howdy himself, a cultural voice who has been shaping conversations and sharing beauty for decades.
