The voice, the phrasing - perfection. Two other "stand out" renditions of this track come to mind, Connie F.'s version, & Sinatra's. The three versions are all different takes on a classic tune. To have a preference for one rendition over the other, is feasible. To compare & say one is better than the other, seems off base. Francis does this song, in her style, as only she can do. The WB version is stunning. As for Sinatra's version, he covered the track as only Sinatra could do, his way.
I know you've heard this a thousand times but I'm here if you need me. I feel I've known you all my life (you are six years older) & I still hope that we will meet some day either walking in the rain, in my room, ok don't listen but you did & always will mean a very special person in my life...please remember that you are very special! Thank you. x
@joaoscatarino I know the film is directed by Jacques Demy; "This Michel Legrand classic" means the song, not the film. ;) Thank you for your comment.
Scott Walker has the most wonderful voice and this song really uses it to it's full advantage. I love it.
