Seventeen was the only Broadway score by the team of Kim Gannon and Walter Kent. The musical didn’t produce any popular standards, but they wrote one of the most enduring of all holiday songs with their sweet and poignant “I’ll Be Home for Christmas.”

Music: Walter Kent
Lyrics: Kim Gannon
Book: Sally Benson
