I've heard many covers of this from singers and just instrumentals and am confused.My high school choir is doing this arrangment for the Spring Show and Im curios to find out whom the original was.
@crow66693 The two most popularly recorded versions are this one by Nat and one done by Johnny Mathis some time later which I also have posted to YouTube. I would assume that Nat's version was the "original", but some lesser artist may have recorded it prior to this....Nocaro
Heavens to Murgatroid! I had no idea the late great Nat King Cole did a version of this wonderfully romantic ballad! Absolutely beautiful! THANKS so very much for posting it! You have certainly MADE my day! :)
@billchew450 Johnny's version is also terrific but the arrangement was almost copied note for note from this one omitting Nat's opening stanza...you might want to read my notes attached to the video...thanks for the comment...Lanny (Nocaro)

@crow66693 This version is in Eb Major, the Johnny Mathis version is in Ab Major, but the original composition was written in F Major.

@violiner9391 Unless you were to write Capitol Records and request this, I would have no idea how to obtain it.

@violiner9391 Musicnotes has the lead sheet. You could work from that.

Mathis was good, but none can touch the honey of the Kings voice. Pure magic

Johnny Mathis also did a beautiful cover of this song- it's my favorite in fact.

I'd say that Johnny's version is more modern & iconic; but the Capitol sound is simply marvelous...
Pure honey...
