Al Bowlly Sings "It's All Forgotten Now" with Ray Noble

[earlysunsetsover2019]

me, being a hardcore fan of alternative rock and punk, i have such a soft spot for music from the 20s, 30s, 40s, i love it :)

[msmithstud]

i have a bootleg soundtrack of THE SHINING and the ballroom songs are the highlight.

[kamilla1960]

My what a lovely room! There's Nipper between the two gramophones.

[sargebehr]

Love this tune, too - someone posted on EBay an article about the Netherland Plaza Hotel in Cincinnati, OH. (perhpas this country's best xample of French Art Deco stylee - from 1931) using this tune as it's backdrop - perfect for this! Thanks for posting!

[dylanh182]

charmante soirée n'est-ce pas?

[beaubery]

Fantastic! and I adore your livingroom. wish I could flop on the floor in front of the hi-fi and listen all night.

[lindyhoppers]

Dear Sean,

playing records on your VE 10-50 it's pure HI-FI! Lucky you to own one!

Bestest,

Enrico

[StopFear]

How heard this song for the first time is in Stanley Kubrick's The Shining

[TomthatiscalledTom]

Wendy baby, darling, light of my life....I'm not gonna hurt ya....I'm just gonna bash your brains RIGHT the fuck in!

[teebeesea]

Oh, man...this is one of my three favorite Noble-Bowlly ballads...at the beginning, after the piano intro, when the saxes and violins come in...it just kills me every time. And Harry Jacobsen...my fave British dance band pianist...his fill-ins behind Al are just super...thanks for posting so others can enjoy this one!

[setpieces]

Lovely. It would only be better if you had a big 30s armchair set up to right of picture & retired to it with pipe & newspaper after putting the record on.....

[beaubery]

@setpieces now that's a lovely image.

[yedon68]

[KnockelII]

Beautiful music, Bowlly at his best, and what a nice interior with a record player from the period. Thanx!

[chevick]

Nice old phonographs...

[bowie1921]

I agree,one of the very top recordings of the 1930s.

[walrustusks]

This song is in the movie, "The Shining", also the song "Midnight, The Stars, and You"....which is very good.

[yes4albert]

I love this song.

[PulloutMap]

sorry, forgot to mention...written by Ray Noble !!

[blasdell1987]

Haha, lucky. Like you can't even find it online! =\ Well, thanks again!

[PulloutMap]

It's a pleasure, I have the original sheet music published here in the U.K. in 1934 by Campbell , Connelly & Co. Ltd., London. ref no C.C.P.855. The cover has a black and white photo of Henry Hall and says "successfully featured by The B.B.C. Dance Orchestra directed by Henry Hall" The music is for piano/voice/ukulele.

Great lyrics...and so true !

[PulloutMap]

continued from below....

then passes by. But now we realize what sadness deep in his heart each true lover finds, and now that we've been through it, We've both made up our minds....

Refrain again !

[blasdell1987]

Thanks so much! =D How did you find the lyrics? =P It's been taking me forever. lol

[PulloutMap]

continued from below (word limit!).....

...corner's turn'd and we can say : We're still in love......For you and I , and ev'ry-body must learn to give and take, We'll find like everybody it's worth it for happiness' sake. Its all forgotten now, we're happy one again , our troubles gone beyond re-call and "making up" is best of all, we're still in love......Its Love.....

Second Verse...

We used to say that lovers' quarrels were like a summer cloud in the sky, that hides th sun one moment

[w2i3l0l3]

@PulloutMap sorry, just saw this; that's awesome thx

[0FindGlory]

Can someone write down the lyrics for me to read?

[blasdell1987]

Me too! Anyone know the lyrics to this song? I can't find them! =(

[PulloutMap]

We have been such a loving couple;The Model of what lovers should be, Until the day we quarrelled ...so bitterly. And then the world seem'd full of trouble,our hearts beset by trouble and care, But now we've made it up,dear, and we can both declare......

Refrain...

It's all forgotten now, The trouble and the pain, Forgotten ev'ry word I said,Forgotten every tear you shed, We're still in love...

It's all forgiven now,we're back in lovers' lane and tho'we wander'd from our way the ...

[w2i3l0l3]

@PulloutMap Hey could you post the integrity of the lyrics please; I've had trouble finding 'em

[bustergreg19]

[yes4albert]

Hi. In case you haven't found it yet, this song is track #21on a CD called "Ray Noble and his New Mayfair Dance Orchestra with Al Bowlly, disc 3. It's on the Rathbone label. There are ten cd's in all and they include "every recording Al Bowlly made with Ray Noble in England."

[mhomer4]

To the person who commented about my original comment from two months ago, I was repeating a line from the Movie, The Shining!"

[LAtvFan]

I got it... and it made me laugh. ;)

[HarborGuy]

What year was this wonderful recording made? Beautiful Victorla... 5 - stars for both..

[1963biels]

It's great. The intervals are so "unusual

I want to sing it also ;-)

still I'll never reach such high notes

[Scroobily]

Rock on.

[mhomer4]

Weren't you the butler here? You cut your wife and kids up into little pieces then blew your brains out!

[Letsplay222]

...I don't think I remember that, sir.

[ConstanceMarkiewicz]

Love your gramophone!

Thanks for posting this lovely song.

[mawzon59]

Is this track available on CD? Anyone know where I can find Al singing 'Something to sing about'?

[gf1001]

I am not a big Al Bowlly fan BUT WOW THIS SONG IS WONDERFUL. The orchestra and Al are in perfect step, smooth as chocolate I think this is going to be one of my favourite records to. many thanks for the posting FABULOUS.

[jurek46pink]

I have found my BELOVED record here; once ...got broken.

What a day (today !).

[Bobibuck]

Great one of my fav Al Bowlly songs, regards Robin

[AeromarineAirways]

Brings me back!

[wagg20]

Poignant reminders of a past long gone.

Exquisite music!

[rudydruhy]

Takes me back...This song was featured in Stanley kubricks The Shining; in the red bathroom scene

[peacemonger1967]

I believe that song was Al's recording of "Midnight"

[peacemonger1967]

I have a copy of the same 78 record of the great Al Bowlly singing Its All Forgotten Now. I play it on a Columbia Truphonic phonograph from 1927. Sounds heavenly...

[fediya]

I'd been listening to Al Bowly and this particular song way back in the fifties on my short wave in the old USSR. The station was radio Ceylon. A lot of water under the bridge. Is there any chance I could get a copy of it? It would be greatly appreciated.

[mhomer4]

YOu can get it on Amazon and probably down loadit. If you have a problem I can send you a copy of this and Midnight, The Stars and You! Just send your email to me.

[ronnkarenmccoy]

were happy once again!!!!

[piraton26]

Thank so much for adding it, it brought tears to my eyes. I thought I was the only one who liked Al Bowlly.

[Redshift21]

Check out the Al Bowlly story here on youtube.
