Who sang the song 'The Moon is in Tears' that Betty Davis lip sync's too?

I've watched many of Ms. Davis's films and in the very few she does act a singing role it's quite obvious the singer is not her. I thought whoever sang 'The Moon is in Tears' in Kid Galahad came the closest to matching BD's husky voice.

Sorry, I forgot to look in the Soundtrack section where I would have seen that Virginia Verrill voice dubbed Betty Davis preformance:

The Moon Is in Tears Tonight
(1937) (uncredited); Music by M.K. Jerome; Lyrics by Jack Scholl; Performed by Bette Davis, voice dubbed by Virginia Verrill.
