Here I am singing a wonderful song, in tribute to Dean Martin, and some of his good friends. A song originally written as "¿Quién será?" in 1953 by Mexican composer, and bandleader, Pablo Beltrán Ruiz. In 1954, Norman Gimbel provided the English lyrics for the version that became a huge hit for Dean Martin that same year. Many other singers have sung this song over the years, with Julie London's (whose brilliant arrangement by Ernie Freeman I'm using here, only having increased the tempo, and lowered it's key), Rosemary Clooney's, and Michael Bublé's versions being perhaps the three most popular, after Dean's.
Along with the song, this tribute also includes a video mashup of movie clips of Dean, and his friends in some zany action. All credits for the film clips used are shown at the end of the video.
Dean Martin's version of "Sway", can be found on the Capitol CD, "Dean Martin - Capitol Collectors Series".
Julie London's version can be found on the Liberty Records CD, "Julie London - Latin In a Satin Mood", which was originally released in 1963.
I hope you'll enjoy my version of this classic song, and tribute to the "King Of Cool", and his pallies!
Greg :)
P.S.: A special thank you goes out to Tim of timboytx on YouTube, for requesting this song. Check out his channel! He's a wonderful singer, and ukulele player. :))

This is a beautifully sung rendition, Greg! The room that I'm listening to you in actually began to....sway. If it was not the hypnotic effects of your wonderful singing, perhaps I am simply off my meds?
Nah, it's YOU, man! Bravo!!!
