Keep Young and Beautiful

"Keep Young and Beautiful" is a song by Al Dubin (lyrics) and Harry Warren (music), performed by Eddie Cantor and a chorus in the 1933 film Roman Scandals.[1] Annie Lennox recorded a cover of the song for her album Diva (1992).[2]

While it does not appear in the original 1980 version, the song is used in act 1 for the 2001 Broadway revival of Warren and Dubin's 42nd Street. The cast recording is performed by Mary Testa, Jonathan Freeman, and the ensemble.

The song was a favourite of Winston Churchill.[3]
