 * Adding/correcting qvs  Cole Porter (qv) picked James Stewart (I) (qv) for the male lead  and later said he sang "Easy to Love" as well as any professional  singer. A dubbing track was prepared with baritone Jack Owens, but  it was decided that Stewarts tenor voice was perfect for the song.  In _Thats Entertainment! (1974)_ (qv), Stewart said, "The song had  become a huge hit, even my singing wouldnt hurt it."
