This is my rendition of the song What A Difference A Day Makes.......The music for this has a similar arrangement to the Jamie Cullum version of the song. I hope the guys enjoy the video (lol). Some interesting facts about the song:

"What a Difference a Day Made" is a popular song originally written in Spanish by María Méndez Grever (María Grever), a Mexican composer, in 1934. Originally, the song was known as Cuando Vuelva A Tu Lado. The English lyrics were written by Stanley Adams, made famous by Harry Roy & his Orchestra. It was published in late 1934. The song is in the Bolero romantic style and its also known as "What a Difference a Day Makes".

This song is one of the most popular boleros of all time, and the signature recording of the song belongs to that of Dinah Washington, who won a Grammy Award in 1959 for Best Rhythm and Blues Performance with this song, and her version was also inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1998.[1] It also earned her her first top ten Pop hit, reaching #8 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Andy Russell, an Mexican-American singer, recorded the song in 1944 (Capitol #167, paired with "Don't You Notice Anything New?").

Esther Phillips's 1975 disco remake was a top-20 hit.

It was recorded by Diana Ross in 1972, but not released until thirty-four years later when her Blue album was discovered in the Motown vaults and released in 2006.

Other artists who covered the song include Sarah Vaughan, Renee Olstead, Aretha Franklin on her 1964 album, Unforgettable: A Tribute to Dinah Washington, Eydie Gorme on her 1964 album, Freddy Fender recorded a version for his 1976 LP If You're Ever In Texas, Eydie Gorme canta en español con Los Panchos, Cher perform the song in The Cher Show, Luis Miguel on his 1991 album Romance, and Jamie Cullum on his 2003 debut album, Twentysomething.

In 2007 R&B/Dance singer Deborah Cox made a remake of this song on her album Destination Moon. Also in 2007, Peter Criss covered the song on his album One for All.
