"Sing Me a Love Song" is a lightweight musical comedy that features the tenor voice of James Melton and the high jinks of some good character actors. Melton plays the role of a department store owner who goes undercover to better manage his store. The staff of the store includes Zasu Pitts and Allen Jenkins. Hugh Herbert is a kleptomaniac who manages to steal from under the nose of a vigilant store manager.
The musical numbers are, perhaps, forgettable. But Melton's voice is formidable enough to play on the operatic stage. It would be perfect for the song "I'll String Along With You." And he is not a bad leading man, either.
