The songs in the film featured Joan Merrill accompanied by Sammy Kaye and His Orchestra.[1]

"This was one of the first musicals made following U.S. entry into the war," wrote film historian Tony Thomas, who noted that three of the songs in Iceland have faded from memory. "But the song that shines from this film like a beacon is 'There Will Never Be Another You'. The melody, built on long rising and falling intervals, is one of the loveliest Warren ever wrote. For all its simplicity it is free of clichès and full of beguiling modulations. Like so many fine pieces of art, this song gives the impression of being written effortlessly. The notes follow each other with a gracious kind of logic."[2]

"There Will Never Be Another You" was published in 1942[3] and is considered a jazz standard. A 1966 Chris Montez recording of the song went to #4 on the Easy Listening chart and #33 on the Hot 100.[4]
