Frank SINATRA - One Note Samba (Samba De Uma Nota So)

Frank Sinatra
Reprise Recordings
(A.C. Jobim, N. Mendonca)
[Recorded February 11, 1969, Hollywod]


This is just a little samba
Built upon a single note
Other notes are bound to follow
But the root is still that note
Now this new one is the consequence of the one we've just been through
As I'm bound to be the unavoidable consequence of you



(two verse)

There's so many people who can talk and talk and talk
And just say nothing or nearly nothing
I have used up all the scale I know and at the end I've come
To nothing or nearly nothing
So I come back to my first note as I must come back to you
I will pour into that one note all the love I feel for you
Any one who wants the whole show re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do
He will find himself with no show better play the note you know.

"There's so many people Who can Talk and Talk, and Talk and just Say nothing ( ...or Nearly Nothing) "

The phaser modulation actually makes this track more original and enjoyable!!!

@zebb3000 In 1969? The only one track that I'm aware in the 1960s that had a phaser effect was Itchycoo Park-Small Faces!

the lyrics are really unnecessary

[viniceo]

this is no close to the perfection of ella fitzgerald's version. This is so weird.....5 years ago i would have said that ella's version is simply an improvised singing....today, frankie seems to white for me.....Ella fitzgerald stole my heart!!!!!!i love her so much!!!
