Johnnie Ray - Such a night (1954)


T'was a night mmmmm, what a night it was
It really was such a night
The moon was bright, Oh how bright it was
It really was such a night
The night was alive, with the stars above mmmm
When she kissed me, I had to fall in love

It was a kiss mmmm, what a kiss it was
It really was such a kiss
How she could kiss, Oh what a kiss it was
It really was such a kiss
Just part of her lips, could set me afire
I I I reminice, and I feel desire

I gave my heart to her in sweet surrender
How well I remember, I'll always remember

Oh that night, Oh what a night it was
It really was such a night
Came the dawn and my heart and my love
And the night was gone
But I'll never forget that kiss in the moonlight
Such a kiss oh such a night

I gave my heart to her in sweet surrender
How well I remember, I'll always remember

Oh what a night, Oh what a night it was
It really was such a night
Came the dawn and my heart and her love
And the night was gone
But I know I'll never forget her kiss in the moonlight
Such a kiss oh oh such a night

Now she's gone, gone, gone
Yes she's gone, gone, gone
Came the dawn, dawn, dawn
And the night was gone
And my heart was gone
And her love was gone
And before that morn
Oh oh oh oh such a night

The missing link between Sinatra and Presley, how he came to be the forgotten man of music I will never know, at an Elvis concert Johnnie was in the audience and Elvis introduced him as a big influence on his music, Johnnie was at one time the biggest star in the world, what happened?, I have loads of his music and I love it, maybe in the future some film maker will rediscover him and give him the respect he deserves.

tremendous...he has nothing held back! heart and soul + his physical self in this one--truly Such a Night as no other!

This is great. It's like he's retelling his date to friend.

I loved Johnny Ray, he was different at the time expressive and reminded me of Judy Garland's akwardness......loved it!

As I have said before, the link between Frankie and Elvis, a true musical revolution, unfortunally by and large, unrecognised, sorry Johnie,I still play you and get great pleasure from your renditions, RIP

cool to see this guy in action onstage - love the drama - strange how he can seem so mobile yet so stiff simultaneously. SLAM that piano lid, Johnnie! Thanks for posting this!

Wait - am I making this up, or did he sing one more refrain as a sort of "encore?"
