\"Golden Earrings\" is a song composed by Victor Young, with lyrics by Ray Evans and Jay Livingston, and introduced by Murvyn Vye in the 1947 Paramount film Golden Earrings.\n

It was a hit on the both sides of Atlantic as recorded by Peggy Lee.\n

Composition

Reviewing Dinah Shore's version in October 1947, Billboard described \"Golden Earrings\" as a \"dreamy gypsy melody\".\n

As Philip Furia notes in his book American Song Lyricists, 1920-1960, \"the melody of [the song]\", \"cast in the minor mode, and with altered second and seventh scale degrees\", \"has all the stereotypical markers of one intended to sound 'Jewish,' 'oriental,' or otherwise non-Western.\"\n
