Review by Nadira Hira

Album Review: Dreams Come Tumbling Down / Music Lessons by The Andrews Sisters Alright, let’s talk about this little slice of 1952 magic. The Andrews Sisters were already legends by the time they dropped Dreams Come Tumbling Down / Music Lessons. This one’s a Decca release, with George Cates handling the orchestration, and it’s got that classic mix of Folk, World, Country, and Pop vibes. But really, it’s all about those harmonies—those buttery-smooth vocals that just wrap around you like your favorite old sweater. The title track, “Dreams Come Tumbling Down,” is an absolute gem. It’s one of those songs that sneaks up on you. You’re not expecting much at first—it starts off simple enough—but then those harmonies kick in, and suddenly you’re hit with this wave of nostalgia for dreams you didn’t even know you had. There’s something so bittersweet about it, like watching the sunset on a summer day that felt endless… until it wasn’t. Honestly, I can’t get through it without pausing to stare out the window for a sec. Feels like it was written just for moments like that. Then there’s “Music Lessons.” Now, this one’s fun. It’s playful, kinda cheeky even, and you can tell the sisters are having a blast singing it. The lyrics are clever—not too deep, but sharp enough to make you smile. Plus, George Cates’ orchestration gives it this lively bounce that makes you wanna tap your feet or maybe even grab a partner for a quick twirl across the kitchen floor. It’s the kind of song that reminds me why people used to gather ‘round radios instead of scrolling TikTok. What strikes me most about this album is how timeless it feels. Sure, it came out in 1952, but these tracks still resonate today. Maybe it’s because life back then wasn’t so different—we’ve all got dreams that tumble down sometimes, and we could all use a bit more joy in our music lessons (literal or metaphorical). Oh, here’s a random thought to leave you with: listening to this record makes me wonder if The Andrews Sisters ever fought over who got the best harmony part. Like, did they draw straws? Flip a coin? Or was it just understood that whoever sang lead bought the doughnuts the next day? Either way, they nailed it. Cheers to that!
