Overview of ‘Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree (With Anyone Else But Me)<\/h2>\n

The song, “Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree (With Anyone Else But Me),” is a classic recording by the American trio, The Andrews Sisters. Penned by Lew Brown, Charlie Tobias and Sam H. Stept in 1942 and first recorded by The Glenn Miller Orchestra, it was later performed by The Andrews Sisters. This up tempo jive-style classic has a catchy chorus and is still enjoyed by old and young audiences alike.<\/p>\n

Written during WWII, the song’s catchy chorus was said to have been used as a coded message to fighter pilots, warning them not to be too trusting of strangers during wartime. A frequent request by servicemen during the 1940s, the music was composed to reflect a carefree-style of popular music from that era.<\/p>\n

Notable Versions<\/h2>\n

In the years after it was released, the song gained recognition throughout the world and versions by several artists, including Louis Jordan and The Beatles, were well received. The Andrews Sisters’ oldie recording has been featured in several films, including “Forrest Gump”, “Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit”, and “The Three Amigos”. <\/p>\n
