@lford1130 hey let's call it bossa nova ;) and yeah its beautiful...i also adore this version, clearly above all others...its is warm and soothing as a fireplace in a cold winter evening
I was about 14 years old ... she was the first girl I thought about night and day ... I played that LP over and over, wrote down the lyrics so she knew ... wow, she ran a mile!
Although I have been a fan of ETBG, Tracy Thorn can't do this song justice. Don't take this wrong, I love her voice, but this song demands a more dramatic presence and a greater range. I would like to have heard Patsy Cline or Roy Orbison sing it before they passed or k d lang...but who am I to say? hell, I can't carry a tune in a bucket.
I'm a huge Cole Porter fan, and I just read that they had covered it, so I just had to see how much they'd messed it up. But actually I'm pleasantly surprised. This is really different, but it actually works quite nicely, i think.
Night and day, you are the one Only you beneath the moon or under the sun Whether near to me, or far Its no matter darling where you are I think of you Day and night, night and day, why is it so That this longing for you follows wherever I go In the roaring traffics boom In the silence of my lonely room I think of you
Seems like it was 1986, or early '87 when I heard this, in Steve Beckett's apartment that he was moving out of. Not for sure on the year. Heavy experimental era for me, greatly affecting my memory! Anyway, thanks for posting it! Been wanting to hear it for years. It's what really got me interested in finger style jazz guitar. I remembered the album cover as soon as it flashed on the screen. Still have a few cells left!
I like what EBTG did with Corcovado, but this is not doing it for me. Maybe try Frank Sinatra if you want to hear this song. Or even Bobby Short (probably not on YouTube, but I haven't searched).
Fantastic! All these years being a huge EBTG fan: I've always desired to listen to this Cole Porter cover and I've never found it: thank you for posting it...kisses

Frank Sinatra, The Temptations, Ella Fitzgerald---fabulous versions. But I think this is my favorite; I'm a fan of Brazilian jazz, though.

Yes, and 20-some years later they remade "Corcovado." They are masters at recreating that kind of music.
