Don't Fence Me In (song)
"Don't Fence Me In" is a popular American song written in 1934, with music by Cole Porter and lyrics by Robert Fletcher and Cole Porter. Members of the Western Writers of America chose it as one of the Top 100 Western songs of all time. Origins Originally written in 1934 for ''Adios, Argentina,'' an unproduced 20th Century Fox film musical, "Don't Fence Me In" was based on text by Robert (Bob) Fletcher, a poet and engineer with the Department of Highways in Helena, Montana. Cole Porter, who had been asked to write a cowboy song for the 20th Century Fox musical, bought the poem from Fletcher for $250.

Always (Irving Berlin Song)
"Always" is a popular song written by Irving Berlin in 1925, as a wedding gift for his wife Ellin Mackay, whom he married in 1926, and to whom he presented the substantial royalties. Although legend (and Groucho Marx) claims Berlin wrote the song "Always" for '' The Cocoanuts'', he never meant for the song to be included in that musical, and it was not. Thematically, it serves as a sequel to Berlin's earlier song " When I Lost You," which pertained to the death of his first wife Dorothy. The song entered into the public domain on January 1, 2021. The song is an important plot element in Noël Coward's play ''Blithe Spirit''. It also features in the 1944 film '' Christmas Holiday'', in which it is sung by Deanna Durbin Edna Mae Durbin (December 4, 1921 – April 17, 2013), known professionally as Deanna Durbin, was a Canadian-born actress and singer, who moved to the USA with her family in infancy.
