Performed here by Ken Hoban. "My Happiness" is a pop music standard which was initially made famous in the mid-twentieth century. An unpublished version of the melody with different lyrics was written by Borney Bergantine in 1933. The most famous version of the song, with lyrics by Betty Peterson Blasco, was published for the first time in 1948. The first known recording of this version was in December 1947 by the Marlin Sisters but the song first became a hit in May 1948 as recorded by Jon and Sondra Steele (Damon 11133) (number three) with rival versions by the Pied Pipers (Capitol 1628/15094)and an A cappella version by Ella Fitzgerald (Decca 24446) entering the charts that June reaching respectively numbers four and eight with the Marlin Sisters version (Columbia 38217) finally charting with a number 24 peak that July. A version by John Laurenz (Mercury catalog number 5144, with the flip side "Someone Cares"), entered the Billboard magazine charts on August 7, 1948 where it stayed for two weeks, peaking at number 26.
