much for the extremely thorough information on Stardust. It was quite
interesting to see how much time people have spent on the issue, and to
see that one single song could stir so much controversy. There now
arises another question about the composition based upon the sentence
which I put in brackets. Was Carmichael's key D major? I thought it
was D-flat major, and I have seen it written it in Db or C, but never
in D.
