Mel Torme - Dat dere

people think jay z, beyonce and kanye are cool these days...Thats because theres no one making music like this to completely obliterate their chances. He's so cool! I love started at 1:38 he just stares right into the camera, snapping, singing his heart out! Argh so cool!

Mel !!!!!!

Thanks for posting!

This man is my all time favorite male jazz singer. His rhythm & annunciation is just impeccable. His tone is not of this Earth, & his stage presence is unparalleled. He makes it seen so effortless. there is a rock solid sincerity about everything he does

No, it's an original by Bobby Timmons with lyrics written by Oscar Brown Jr.

Thank you for posting. Great tune. Great voice!

this man is a true musical genius- he starting singing and making money at age 4 - during the depression he supported his family as a kid

Oscar Brown Jr. wrote this song for the debut album "Sin and Soul." CHECK IT OUT! Oscar is THE BEST storyteller of all jazz vocalists. Brown really understands his lyrics and therefore can thoroughly utilize his voice in all aspects: pitches, timbre, rhythm ect... Check out OSCAR BROWN JR! hard to find his stuff on youtube though so look elsewhere.

i love this whole album!!

Who's the band???..just so hot....

One of my favorite Torme tunes. He's really the only one who does justice to this song. No offense to Tony Bennett or Ella, but Mel knocks this song out of the park.
