Rosa Ponselle comin' thro the rye

I liked this, it was well done and strange though this may sound it was fun to listen to.

Without any doubt the most remarkable version of the song I ever heard in 45 years.

And justice to the song or not, I think it is a welcome variation ánd clever. Yes, I do appreciate this duet very much. A very gay approach and if you hear balladsinger Jo Stafford's

interpretation with full orchestra, Jo sounds almost classical and the classic diva Rosa Ponselle sounds the other way round, like singing on a fair! Funny.

But all nice and interesting, like a field of flowers.

Thanks, this up!

Isn't the other singer Rosa Ponselle's sister, Carmela Ponselle? They made a few duets together and originally appeared as a vaudeville team. A rather fanciful version of this song; but I must admit very few singers do it justice, even the Ponselles. My favorite for this song is Melba.
