This song was written by Rodgers & Hammerstein for their debut 1943 musical Oklahoma! but was deleted. It was then sung by Judy Garland to be included in the their 1944 musical film Meet Me in St. Louis, but it was also cut from the movie (and the footage has been lost). It's first release was later that year on Judy Garland's November 1944 album from the movie also called Meet Me in St. Louis.
This song is also performed by the part of the Queen on certain productions of "Cinderella" - Licensing
