The "What'll I do...." title is part of a line from an OLD song, around World War 2 I think, it was about a woman missing her boyfriend. Try to listen to it on You Tube - lot's of good stuff on there.
I have listened to a wide variety of songs on there, ones that I remember from years gone by. At times that prompts me to buy a CD by Gogi Grant or Percy Faith. I listen to Ernest Tubb and the Texas Playboys sing "Waltz across Texas", or anything by Vern Gosdin or Patty Montana - - now that's some old stuff. I only like music I remember the words (some of them) to; since I lost a lot of hearing anything new is unintelligeble, some of it's like that anyway I suppose.
Anyhow, that's a wrap. Have a nice day, stay cool and get some exercise.
I just looked up "What'll I do" it was written by Irving Berlin in 1924, it came back in the movie "Great Gatsby" in the 1980's, Linda Ronstadt has a great version, check it out.
