Paul Cezanne: "I could paint for a thousand years without stopping and I would still feel as though I knew nothing."
Edgar Degas: "Only when he no longer knows what he is doing does the painter do good things.... To draw, you must close your eyes and sing."
Georges Braque: "In art there is only one thing that counts: the bit that can’t be explained."

Indeed it is, Scot!
But here are a couple of my personal Crosby-Lang faves that didn't make the cut...
*****
"I Kiss Your Hand, Madame"
Dig Lang's sublime harmony with Bing's vocal. (BTW, that's not Venuti on violin, though a pretty good imitation... alas, I can't presently remember the guy's name...)
****
"Paradise"
Less is more! Oh, what Lang can do with just a few simple chords when the rest of the orchestra falls silent...
