I have an earworm today and I really should know what song it is but I don't. It's an American patriotic song, not their anthem but would be sung at similar occasions. I think it contains the words 'hearts and voices'. I have tried to google. I only know it's sung at the end of Dirty Dancing when the staff are on the stage final night before Patrick Swayze returns (doesn't seem to be on the soundtrack). Can anyone put me out of my misery?

Thank you Jno & Tigger, it is not Kellermann's Anthem but you set me on the track to find the correct answer. That was adapted for Dirty Dancing from:
"Annie Lisle" is an 1857 ballad by Boston, Massachusetts songwriter H. S. Thompson, first published by Moulton & Clark of Newburyport, Massachusetts, and later by Oliver Ditson & Co.[1] It is about the death of a young maiden, by what some have speculated to be tuberculosis, although the lyric does not explicitly mention tuberculosis, or "consumption" as it was called then. The song might have slipped into obscurity had the tune not been adopted by countless colleges, universities, and high schools worldwide as their respective alma mater songs"

I knew it wasn't just from DD because I have heard it in other films (most notably 'The Last Picture Show' which was on today, probably because of the death of Chloris Leachman.
Oh sweet baby Jesus. I'm singing it in my head now and I don't know most of the words. It's just an annoying loop of 'hearts and voice' with Kellermans thrown in for good measure.

I'm going for the wine....
I'm standing here with my hand on my heart and my hankie in the other hand.

What has he done?
