@DanielMcDrtcomposer good for you.

God, Chet's voice makes this song so haunting... Glad he sung the exact melody here. In different performances he often alters the melody as do other singers. I prefer it this way. Really short without any solos though.

I loved this song from the first time I heard it, but then when I heard Chet Baker, I couldn't forget his voice, and though I like the other versions, I still return to listen to him sing this song when I need to hear it.

So smooth it almost sounds like a womans voice,,,,

[DotMorson]

My favorite rendition of this song!

[lexarquette]

as smooth as his trumpet...

[vdeferens]

@AlejandraN30 Because it would have been released as a 45 single, the maximum length of each side at that time being around 2 1/2 minutes.

Not a bad singer, no. He's on pitch with a really sweet tone. His voice is not strong but then neither was Callas's. Most importantly, what makes him a good singer is his ability to put a song across, as they say.
