That song by T'Pau that you posted is a really neat song, but I thought it was a new original song, not the one Carmichael composed, but I could be wrong. I just didn't recognize any parts of it like I did with the Train version. Am I deaf? Could be.
My favorite T'Pau song has the same title and nothing else whatsoever in common with the Carmichael number. So I'd say your hearing is intact. 
Another movie that used your song briefly but amusingly was The Competition (1980)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Competition_(film)
This film introduced me to Sergei Prokofiev, long before Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan put his name in circulation. Piano Concerto No. 3 is amazing. I never became a Prokofiev expert, but it's nice to be introduced to things like that.

Okay, I'm sure there are hundreds of songs from The Great American Songbook which I don't know ...
... but when I read the thread title I was convinced you meant that wonderful melody Body and Soul.
But no, this song you promote is one I can say I have no recollection of hearing and yet, from clips I've just played by Dean Martin, Ella Fitzgerald and an unknown female singer, it is a song I should know ... and should have in my collection. I have hundreds of songs by each of those two named artists but, admittedly, my dozens of works by the wonderful Hoagy Carmichael amount to only 15 distinct titles.
Thanks, Joan, for raising this song's profile ... it's one I shall look out for now that I know of its existence.
And, yes, let's hope such songs remain with us ... unadulterated!
