I'm sentimental, so I walk in the rain I've got some habits even I can't explain... Why try to change me now?

Nadia Sings no. 7

Link to last song

Yes, believe your eyes—it’s a Nadia Sings double feature!

This is one of my favorite jazz standards to sing, and it’s not one that I think most people will know: “You’ll Never Know” (Music by Harry Warren, lyrics by Mack Gordon)

The song was introduced in the 1943 movie “Hello, Frisco, Hello”, where it was sung by Alice Faye, eventually going on to win the 1943 Academy Award for Best Original Song.

In the 21st century, the song was featured in the 2017 film “The Shape of Water”, sung there by the legendary American opera singer, Renee Fleming.

When I first heard this song, between the lovely lyrics and beautiful melody, I immediately fell in love, and I could not believe it when I saw that it was sung by Renee Fleming, who was one of my inspirations growing up.

So I learned it as soon as I could… and have never performed it since—until now, and I think this is the proudest I’ve been of a recording.

I’ll let it speak for itself.

Again, my usual disclaimer; this was recorded in my new recording studio (my closet), using my favorite recording app, BandLab (again, you guys know the drill 🤣), and, as usual, while I put a little reverb effect on my vocal track, this is otherwise as unadulterated a track as the one I posted last time, just my voice, with no pitch correction, recorded into my iPhone.

(Headphones recommended to hear the reverb)

Maybe it's much too early in the game

Ah, but I thought I'd ask you just the same

What are you doing New Year's, New Year's eve?

Wonder whose arms will hold you good and tight

When it's exactly twelve o'clock that night

Welcoming in the New Year, New Year's Eve?

Maybe I'm crazy to suppose

I'd ever be the one you chose

Out of the thousand invitations you received

Ah, but in case I stand one little chance

Here comes the jackpot question in advance

What are you doing New Year's, New Year's Eve?

[canadachronicles]

The front garden is all abloom with daffodils, narcissi, anemones, hycinths and muscari, and the camellia is flowering gorgeously. And until today, the skies had stubbornly remained cloudless and blue! I thus could not remain in a bleak mood, especially when Spring comes with the sound of Oscar Peterson playing I Got Rhythm!

Husk to Hazbin Crew while he looks for Angel (probably. Song made me feel like he’d be singing this.)

I gotta find who’s number one

And why my angel eyes ain’t here

Pardon me, but I gotta run

That fact’s uncommonly clear

Got to find who’s now number one

And why my Angel eyes ain’t here

Excuse me while I disappear
