"I am Doing What I'm Doing for Love" I know exactly what you mean by Adopted ather. Any man can Father a child, but it takes a real man to be a Dad to build a boy into a man. He doesn't have to be related either. Tuckers's endition is so passionate, she and Belle Baker really know how to sell a song, and get the visceral message of the lyrics across for that emotional impact. Any one can sing a song. But it takes an artist to make the lyrics thei own & sincere.
Love to see this film. I have the Ed Kirkeby (pseud: Ed Loyd, Ted Wallace) on Okeh of this. w/Voc by Smith Ballew. I love this song. Love to find it for Karaoke, if so, I would sing it... Story of my life.
