Music from the First World War | Ep. 1 | Hidden History Jukebox Tunes!

In April of 1917, the United States entered World War I and pro-war songs quickly proliferated. These included sentimental, humorous, patriotic and idealistic songs that can be used to trace the developing attitudes toward the war among Americans of many ethnic backgrounds, as well as the experiences of American soldiers and those they left behind.

"It's a Long Way to Berlin, but We'll Get There!" is a World War I era song released in 1917 and this version was recorded by the American Quartet, a four-member vocal group that recorded for various companies in the United States between 1899 and 1925.
