Ambrose & his Orchestra (4) & Cole Porter - My heart belongs to daddy

"My heart belongs to daddy" was composed by Cole Porter for the 1938 musical "Leave it to me". The original singer was stage star Mary Martin but it has since been performed by many famous singers such as Julie London and Eartha Kitt... Perhaps the best known version today is Marilyn Monroe's rendition in "Let's make love".

This version by Bert Ambrose and his orchestra is a very hot and sensual one, especially in the second part of the song... The record unfortunately is quite worn out, so my advice is to hook your computer up to a good sound system, turn up the volume and move away your furniture : let youself be swept away by this great rendition....

The video is a tribute to some "bad women" of the silver screen (maybe the title,of this video should have been "Ambrose & the loose women")... It shows Joan Crawford in "Rain" (1932), Kay Francis in "Mandalay" (1934), Hedy Lamarr in "Algiers" (1938), Greta Garbo and Erich von Stroheim in "As you desire me" (1932), Mae West, and Rita Hayworth in "Gilda".... Of course others could have been inlcuded but I choose some of my favourite scenes.

Danke Hendrik, ich mag besonders die Klarinetten... finde das ganze sehr verführerisch

[Organgrinder1010]

"Flower Drum Song" was where I first heard this tune. I had no idea it had such a heritage! Thanks! I love to play it on theatre organs!

Even in this recording, to me unusual indeed for him, Ambrose is the best! And a nice video! Thank a lot!

Kay Francis as Spot White is outrageously sexy but with no vulgarity thanks to her unique looks

[Tenderness6]

Who's your daddy?

..Even better than the recording itself (I think), is the film to it! Especially in the end, when the music and the dancer are 100% synchronic! That's fun! Well done! *****

Joan Crawford est juste incroyable. En parfait harmonie avec l'ambiance de la chanson! Merci
