I think its in the song "It Might As Well Be Spring", that Margy sings about three different dream men, big names in show business at the time, namely Bing Crosby, some guy named something Boyet(?) and one other. Do these men actually provide the cameo spoken voices in the song? What do they actually say? Their names are not included in the lyrics I find online.
shareI don't think it's really them. The voices are supposedly Charles Boyer and Ronald Colman. Boyer was famous for a line he never spoke "Take Me to the Casbah" from the 1938 movie 'Algiers' with Hedy Lamarr. Other Boyer impersonators use the line 'Hedy, Hedy come with me to the Casbah". Boyer had a deep and charming voice.
Ronald Colman was also famous for his voice. Don Adams used to impersonate him on 'Get Smart' once in a while. Colman was well known for the 1935 film 'A Tale Of Two Cities'. I don't remember what "Colman" actually says, but like Boyer he was ripe for impressions.
In fact one comedian in a film was using both Boyer and Colman for voice lessons.
I'm not sure about Coleman or Boyett, but it was indeed Bing Crosby doing the 3d voice, according to another website I read. IIRC it mentioned this on the dvd-extras.

Is that a rumor or did you just make that up? -Mom
It was absolutely not Bing Crosby - I always thought Dick Todd. Any experts out there...
