I loved this song n the early 1950's but until now have had to make do with the jazzed up version by Tony Bennett. Finding this has been a gift that I don't deserve. A wonderful arrangement and presentation.
What sets this girl apart is her gift of making it sound as if she is singing to you, and you alone. Up to now, the only other versions of this song I've heard are the ones recorded by Al Bowlly in the 30's, coincidentally another singer who had that rare gift of true intimacy. This is a wonderful rendition, and thank you for it.
Indeed.... her voice is lyrical. And yes there are still a few out there like Stacey Kent and Diana Krall... You just have to search places like YouTube and the internet and they can be found. Thank you also for sharing.
hmm...very nice singer, but the arrangement seems a bit off to me...i needed the sax solo to come in right after the first paragraph of lyrics..very nice though...
"nice" must be the worst word in our language. What does it mean? Not quite good? Try this biglerogym. You arrange the music and make it your own. Afterwards you can always 'Close Your Eyes' and think how brilliant you are. Someone will complain. Then it shall be their turn. Enjoy this. You won't here much better.
u know, on second listen to this song, the piano comes in perfectly, the song is perfect! Funny how that works...Stacey is great, we're gonna get married or somethin maybe one day! Love her voice
Good man. Not a writer, but thanks for compliment. I'm a musician (clarinet/sax). You got the piano right but don't forget Jim's sax solo. He really is a great player and also a really good guy.
This is proof that this kind of great talent still exists. Stacey Kent is a godsend to those of us that cherish this kind of music and the wonderful singers that introduced it to us so many years ago. Thanks for sharing this and I hope that we get more people exposed to what really good music should sound like. Again, thanks.
