Fascination - Jane Morgan

[UncleOafie]

I could waltz all night long, to this lovely elegant music! The use of violin and accordian are mezmerising, and Jane Morgan sings this beautifully! It truly is Fascination!

[fntavora]

Interpretação soberba deste fabuloso e inolvidável tema musical de ontem, de hoje e de sempre!

[ipfarms]

jane morgan....fascination,its an angel voice !

[XXSIXPENCE]

What an absolutely fabulous voice! Beautiful, romantic song - always reminds me of the film 'Love in the afternoon' with Audrey Hepburn, Maurice Chevalier and Gary Cooper. This music was central to the story and always makes me smile to hear it.

[tunesmith09]

Doesn't matter that I practiced the "box step" to this with my best friend's gal in her garage... just don't tell anyone, please...thanks...Tunesmith

[terrysawbo]

reminds me of my mum,beautiful.

[caguicci]

There were only two lps in my house growing up in Yucatan, and this was one of them. Infancy is destiny.

[is1531]

J.M.- She deserved more acclaim,so did Jaye P Morgan.

[JoeClawsy]

Outstanding voice.

[heliumguy1]

what a beautiful tune! my mother, she died of lung cancer, loved the french version by diane dufresne. every time i hear this song, it brings back memories of a wonderful person i loved and admired from the bottom of my heart. r.i.p, dear mother.

[mtuyina]

who can dislike this? seriously?

[hymer46]

ONLY DISCOVED JANE MORGAN a few weeks ago,what a great voice,this song and jane in music will live forever

[bbcisrubbish]

The whole recording is a thing of great beauty. The romance is shiver making.

[mimimishima]

It's like this song automatically plays when you fall in love... with a cheesy romantic dialogue and rose petals falling around you and the one you laid your eyes on...

[kroyka]

like floating on a pink cloud.

[sharon07430]

[bellini7verdi]

MUCHAS VECES NO SE NI COMO CATALOGAR LAS DISTINTAS BELLEZAS QUE EL SER HUMANO PUEDE OFRECER.....POR ESO ME QUEDO PASMADO ESCUCHANDO ES VOZ....COMO PARA NADAR ETERNAMENTE.....

[ilser73]

[loc463]

This was my mothers favorite song

[SmackMyBertha]

@loc463 was? Sorry

[alain451]

Magnifique, il est dommage que les paroles soit si courtes.

Quelle jolie voix romantique.

merci au post.

[lovingoregon]

this song makes me sad and happy,first i missed my brother,second i remember the best time of my life in oregon

[Doro7431]

Just to clarify. This is originally a French song, just like My Way, and countless other famous songs. Beautifully interpreted.

[GSilverWorld]

Does anyone have Jane's "Something Old, New, Borrowed, Blue"? I'm wondering if it's the same as Elvis' Something Blue.

[GSMusicMoments]

@GSilverWorld Well it seems she didn't record that song. See rateyourmusic(com).

[sormlengic]

"Fascinação" é a versão em português, de Louzada.

[wolfofpaso]

As a lonely solder far from home, I would enter a bar, order a drink and play Morgan, captivated by her voice, made the rigors of the war (korean) worth it.

[tron2102]

My Dad loved her music. He was a WW2 Vet in the 94th division. I didn't like hearing her every Sunday morning, but now that he is gone I can still hear Jane sing, and it brings back memories of my Dad. Thank you Jane , my dad loved you and I guess I do too.

[MavsFan1982]

Damn, this was immortalized in "The Next Karate Kid"--the karate waltz. This is so peaceful and relaxing to listen to.

[SaFanFan]

Ma mère chantait cette chanson à mes deux frérôts. Elle m'a confié un grand secret...elle avait eu une aventure alors qu'elle était mariée avec mon père et ce, durant la deuxième guerre mondiale. Mon père ne l'a jamais su et naturellement j'ai gardé son secret et c'est à ce moment que j'ai compris pourquoi elle aimait tant et chantait cette chanson comme berceuse à mes deux petits frères. Mes parents ont eu une très belle vie ensemble. Ce n'était qu'une fascination....

[Alandix]

This song is as fascinating as Jane's voice is riveting. Notice you can understand each word as if it meant to be heard. That is talent that has lately been lost in pop singers. Words used to be a big part of the song. Jane rocks on this one. Thanks!

[emb1st]

she had nine buttons on her nightgown, but she could only fasten eight.....

love this singer and song....remember dancing at the fire hall with the dj spinning the discs. then they game me a bill haley album and i gave it to someone else because i wasn't a fan. now i wish i had it back: bill haley rocks

[bingcro]

dinah shores version beats this into fits no comparison

[Sugarbehr1967]

One of the most memorable times i heard this song was on 'Days of our Lives' when one character played this song for his lady love from a music box..and this music played in the background..irresistable..

[mauvetys]

Une ancienne chanson, mais si douce au coeur!

[alain451]

Romantisme...Les larmes me coule lorsque j' entends cette mélodie..

Qui peux encore se fasciner devant de telles merveilles, comme j aimerai partager une telle émotion....

merci à votre post..

[davpier59]

Yes, this is definitely the hit version...there were others at the time like Dinah Shore's...(yawn)...Jane did a show for UNICEF on DEC. 10 and of course this was in her act. She looked like a million...go to Google and type in JANE MORGAN-UNICEF

[SaFanFan]

@davpier59 I went on the site you mentioned and it's true that she is georgous. Would you believe she was going to be 89 when it was taped! I just hope I'll be half alive as she is on that video. Thanks for the info.

[fairgirl7]

THIS was Jane Morgan's song. PERIOD. No artist captured the beauty of the words with the beauty of Jane Morgan's voice. Bravo Ms.Morgan!

[rogharm]

@fairgirl7 A G R E E you are correct!!!!!*******ROGHARM

[alain451]

Les paroles en Français sont magnifique

" je l ai rencontré simplement mais je n ai rien fais pour chercher à lui plaire "

le Paris romantique.......

merci au post, very good voice.

[richierich291266]

Delightful. Prefer it even to Nat King Cole's version.

[thechinadesk]

Dear richierrich,

I agree. Nat King Cole took some liberties with the tempo that unfortunately did not enhance the strength of the melodic line.

Nat King Cole's version is not "bad." But it is not as good as Jane Morgan's.

If he had not taken those liberties, it would be as good as Jane Morgan's, in my personal opinion.

[defundthewar]

Whether it was a dramatic scene or one that ended with a pie in the face, whenever there was a television sketch with a man and woman in a French restaurant, candle-light, attentive waiter, this song was always played in the background.

[MrKaliom]

@defundthewar Funny you should mention that pie in the face thing- I just discovered Jane Morgan today, having mistaken one of her songs for Anita Bruyant's!

[defundthewar]

@MrKaliom Glad you discovered her, better late than never. I mean Jane, not Anita... and if anyone ever deserved a pie in the face...

[9860313]

This was one of my Mother's favorite songs...thanks so much for posting it!

[hnicky]

how beautiful.. !!

[franklindavid]

Her voice is a fascination to me!! great talent.

[TheRedGrant]

I disagree, I listened to the French version, I think Jane Morgan version has both better composition and better voice.

[thechinadesk]

Unquestionably the best rendition of this song in English.

This was the version I heard while growing up in the 50s.

But I must say the original French lyrics are still preferable.

Especially French coloratura soprano Mado Robin's version, also posted on YouTube.

[emb1st]

she had nine buttons on her nightgown, but she could only fasten eight.

this was a hit when elvis was in his heyday....and jane got a top 10 out of it...

[mixedchick3769]

im in love with this song..or fascinated.

[franklindavid]

What a lovely voice, this song is timeless.

[teebeesea]

It's impossible to listen to any other record of this pretty song and not think of Ms. Morgan's perfect version!

[zeekwolfe]

This is the definitive version of "Fascination."

[davpier59]

This song is great and well posted by 65yb74. No one can sing this song better than Jane Morgan!

[TRAINIAC19]

Agreed!!!!

[wvuparty05]

i would have to say nat king cole did amazing job with this song
