Some social historians claim that "G.I." Jo Stafford's lovely voice helped the Allies win World War II.

The selection is available on this compilation. Stafford died last week. Sad news, indeed. But watch this Stafford goof for a delightful pick-me-up. Wait- it gets even weirder. Stafford's last hit was a parody of "Stayin' Alive," recorded under her Darlene Edwards persona. Here's an "interesting" lip-synced version.
