Jo Stafford gives this wonderful love song by Hoagy Carmichael & Ned Washington very special treatment - In her own inimitable way. Lyrics - Music: Hoagy Carmichael and Ned Washington Lyrics: Its not the pale moon that excites me That thrills and delights me, oh no Its just the nearness of you It isnt your sweet conversation That brings this sensation, oh no Its just the nearness of you When youre in my arms and I feel you so close to me All my wildest dreams come true I need no soft lights to enchant me If youll only grant me the right To hold you ever so tight And to feel in the night the nearness of you I take no credit for the pictures used. + Informações

When they begin the beguine it brings back the sound of music so tender it brings back a night of tropical splendor it brings back a memory ever green I'm with you once more under the stars and down by the shore an orchestras playing and even the palms seem to be swaying when they begin the beguine to live it again is past all endeavor except when that tune clutches my heart and there we are swearing to love forever and promising never never to part What moments divine what rapture serene to clouds came along to disperse the joys we had tasted and now when I hear people curse the chance that was wasted I know but too well what they mean so dont let them begin the beguine let the love that was once a fire remain an ember let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember when they begin the beguine oh yes let them begin the beguine make them play til the stars that were there before return above you till you whisper to me once more darling I love you and we suddenly know what heaven we're in when they begin the beguine. + Informações

Here is a most famous song performed by legendary jazz singer Jo Stafford who passed away recently. Jo Stafford (1917 -- 2008) had a career that spanned the late 1930's through the early 1960's. Stafford is greatly admired for the purity of her voice and was considered one of the most versatile vocalists of the era. She was also viewed as a pioneer of modern musical parody, having won a Grammy Award for Best Comedy Album in 1961 (with husband Paul Weston) for their album "Jonathan and Darlene Edwards in Paris". Originally, she wanted to become an opera singer and studied voice as a child. However, because of the economic Great Depression, she abandoned that idea and joined her sisters Christine and Pauline in a popular vocal group, "The Stafford Sisters", which performed on Los Angeles radio station KHJ. When her sisters married, the group broke up and Stafford joined a new vocal group, "The Pied Pipers". The group became very popular, working on local radio and movie soundtracks, and caught the attention of two of Tommy Dorsey's arrangers, Axel Stordahl and Paul Weston. The group backed Frank Sinatra in some of his early recordings. In 1942, the group had an argument with Dorsey and left, but in 1943 it became one of the first groups signed to Johnny Mercer's new label, Capitol Records. Capitol's music director was the same Paul Weston who had been instrumental in introducing Stafford to Dorsey. Weston and Stafford married in 1952. In 1944, Stafford left the Pied Pipers .... + Informações

Jo Stafford - Autumn in New York Autumn in New York Why does it seem so inviting Autumn in New York It spells the thrill of first-nighting Glittering crowds and shimmering clouds In canyons of steel They're making me feel - I'm home It's autumn in New York That brings the promise of new love Autumn in New York Is often mingled with pain Dreamers with empty hands They sigh for exotic lands It's autumn in New York It's good to live it again Dreamers with empty hands They sigh for exotic lands It's autumn in New York It's good to live it again Autumn in New York. + Informações
