Thomas Hampson - Jeanie with the light brown hair

[davehshs]

For those interested, Thomas Hampson, Jay Ungar, and others released a CD of Stephen Foster's songs. It's a marvelous treasure, including many beautiful Foster songs that were unfamiliar to me.

It's a true story. She dumped Mr.Foster because he was an alcoholic.

great video. nevertheless i think the words should be changed to "i dream of jeanie with the light blonde hair." when i hear the words "i dream of jeanie", i think of barbara eden playing as the genie named "jeanie".

Mr. Hampson's face when he sings is sublime. He is so "there" when he sings.
