Ella Fitzgerald makes me with I was born a generation earlier. Long after Lady Gaga passes out of memory we will be tapping out toes to this song!

[moelang22]

So, I am one of those annoying people who came here because of Glee. Question for all of you who are more knowledgeable than me: is this the true original of this version of the song? I know it all started with the Wizard of Oz, but is this jazz version, the original? Thanks.

[shakasrepresent]

@moelang22 The song was originally on wizard of oz, ella covered it a few decades later

[tntoleary1]

I received a call a few weeks ago from my grandmother, telling me that my father's mother-in-law had died. All of a sudden I heard faint music in the background and it got louder and louder...

Then I recognized it, cued it up on Youtube and here we are!

[kettoshii]

Wow, this is a fun song! Are there commercial recordings available for sale, or is it an OTR rip? <3

[yall1987]

@kettoshii I just recorded it from myspace,so really i have no clue. it was on one of her cds,if you go on myspace and look this up you should be able to find it.

[OldieMusicMan]

It was on her album, Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Harold Arlen Songbook, Vol. 2 . It's a part of her highly regarded "Songbook" series.

And might I add that this is one of my all-time favorite performances of anything. So fun!

[yall1987]

thanks for telling everyone :)

[damone77]

@kettoshii Sammy sings it on "Sounds of 66" with Buddy Rich which is still available on CD!

[AMAubert]

@kettoshii Amazon has it as a CD or for download search Ella Fitzgerald Harold Arlen Songbook

[AllThatJJJJazz]
