팝음악 팬들과 재즈/ 스탠더드 팬, 내년 그래미를 흥분시킬 올해의 화제작, 이 시대 최고의 보컬리스트들이 영원한 청년 토니 버넷과 함께 부르는 아름다운 듀엣
레이 찰스가 남긴 듀엣 앨범이 그의 디스코그래피에 마지막을 차지하는 것이어서 특별한 감회가 느껴졌다면 토니 버넷이 80세 생일을 맞이하여 발표하는 듀엣 앨범은 불로장생에 가까운 그의 음성과 열정을 확인할 수 있기 때문에 경이로움이 앞선다고 해야 할 것이다. U2의 보노, 엘튼 존, 스팅, 스티비 원더, 다이아나 크롤, 폴 매카트니, 조지 마이클, 셀린 디온, 바브라 스트라이샌드, 존 레전드, 빌리 조엘, 엘비스 코스텔로… 여기에 참여한 수많은 스타 보컬리스트들은 그와 함께 노래하며 잊지 못할 추억을 간직하게 되었다고 말한다. 그 감정은 이 앨범을 듣게 될 그의 오랜 팬들은 물론 존 레전드나 스팅, 다이아나 크롤, U2, 스티비 원더, 조지 마이클 등을 듣는 동시대의 음악 팬들에게도 유효하다. 피아니스트 빌 샬랩이 함께 한 “I LEFT MY HEART IN SAN FRANCISCO”는 올드팬들에게 감동을 안겨줄 트랙. .... ....
Smile though your heart is aching Smile even though it??쨈s breaking When there are clouds in the sky, you??쨈ll get by If you smile through your fear and sorrow Smile and maybe tomorrow You??쨈ll see the sun come shining through for you
Light up your face with gladness Hide every trace of sadness Although a tear may be ever so near That??쨈s the time you must keep on trying Smile, what??쨈s the use of crying? You??쨈ll find that life is still worthwhile If you just smile
That??쨈s the time you must keep on trying Smile, what??쨈s the use of crying? You??쨈ll find that life is still worthwhile If you just smile
The Shadow Of Your Smile (Love Theme from The Sandpiper) - Tony Bennett
One day we walked along the sand one day in early spring . . . You held a piper in your hand to mend it's broken wing Now, I'll remember many a day an' many a lonely mile The echo of a piper's song an' the shadow of a smile! The shadow of your smile when you are gone . . . will color all my dreams and light the dawn . . . Look into my eyes, my love, and see all the lovely things you are . . . you are to me! Our wistful little star was far too high . . . A teardrop kissed your lips and so did I . . . Now, when I remember spring, all the joy that love can bring . . . I will be remembering, the shadow of your smile! Now, when I remember spring, all the joy that love can bring . . . I will be remembering, the shadow of your smile!
I know I go from rags to riches If you would only you say you care And though my pocket maybe empty I'll be a millionaireMy clothes may still be torn and tattled But in my heart I'd be a king Your love is all that ever mattered It's everything, so open your arms And you open the door To every treasure that I am hoping for Hold me and kiss me and Tell me you're mine ever moreMust I forever be a beggar Whose golden dreams would not come true Or will I go from rags to riches My fate is up to you
Oh, the good life, full of fun seems to be the ideal Mm, the good life lets you hide all the sadness you feel You won't really fall in love for you can't take the chance So please be honest with yourself, don't try to fake romanceIt's the good life to be free and explore the unknown Like the heartaches when you learn you must face them alone Please remember I still want you, and in case you wonder why Well, just wake up, kiss the good life goodbye
I tried so hard, my dear, to show that you're my every dream Yet you're afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme A memory from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart?Another love before my time made your heart sad and blue And so my heart is paying now for things I didn't do In anger unkind words are said that make the teardrops start Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart?You'll never know how much it hurts to see you sit and cry You know you need and want my love yet you're afraid to try Why do you run and hide from life? To try it just ain't smart Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart?There was a time when I believed that you belonged to me But now I know your heart is shackled to a memory The more I learn to care for you, the more we drift apart Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart?
If I ruled the world, ev'ry day would be the first day of spring Every heart would have a new song to sing And we'd sing of the joy every morning would bringIf I ruled the world, ev'ry man would be as free as a bird, Ev'ry voice would be a voice to be heard Take my word we would treasure each day that occurredMy world would be a beautiful place Where we would weave such wonderful dreams My world would wear a smile on its face Like the man in the moon has when the moon beams If I ruled the world every man would say the world was his friend There'd be happiness that no man coud end No my friend, not if I ruled the world Every head would be held up high There'd be sunshine in everyone's sky If the day ever dawned when I ruled the world
Apparently not charted by anyone but still a fine songOut of the tree of life I just picked me a plum You came along and everything started to hum Still it's a real good bet the best is yet to comeThe best is yet to come and, babe, won't it be fine? You think you've seen the sun but you ain't seen it shineWait till the warm-up's underway Wait till our lips have met Wait till you see that sunshine day You ain't seen nothin' yet!The best is yet to come and, babe, won't it be fine? The best is yet to come, come the day you're mineCome the day you're mine, I'm gonna teach you to fly We're gonna taste of the wine We're gonna drain the cup dryWait till your charms are right for these arms to surround You think you've flown before but you ain't left the groundWait till you're locked in my embrace Wait till I draw you near Wait till you see that sunshine place Ain't nothin' like it here!The best is yet to come and, babe, won't it be fine The best is yet to come, come the day you're mineSPOKEN: "Ho, ho" Out of the tree of life I just picked me a plum You came alongand everything started to hum
Because of you there's a song in my heart Because of you my romance had its start Because of you the sun will shine The moon and stars will say you're mine Forever and never to part
I only live for your love and your kiss It's paradise to be near you like this Because of you my life is now worthwhile And I can smile Because of you
I only live for your love and your kiss It's paradise to be near you like this Because of you my life is now worthwhile And I can smile Because of you
Just in time, I found you just in time Before you came, my time was runnin' low I was lost, the losin' dice were tossed My s all were crossed, nowhere to go Now you're here and now I know just where I'm goin' No more doubt or fear, I found my way For love came just in time You found me just in time And changed my lonely life that lovely dayMm, I was lost, the losin' dice were tossed My s all were crossed, nowhere to go Now you're here and now I know just where I'm goin' No more doubt or fear, I found my way For love came just in time You found me just in time And changed my lonely life that lovely day
I wanna be around to pick up the pieces When somebody breaks your heart Some somebody twice as smart as IA somebody who will swear to be true As you used to do with me Who'll leave you to learn That mis'ry loves company, wait and seeI mean, I wanna be around to see how he does it When he breaks your heart to bits Let's see if the puzzle fits so fineAnd that's when I'll discover that revenge is sweet As I sit there applaudin' from a front-row seat When somebody breaks your heart Like you, like you broke mine
The loveliness of Paris seems somehow sadly gay The glory that was Rome is of another day I′ve been terribly alone and forgotten in Manhattan I′m going home to my city by the bay.
I left my heart in San Francisco High on a hill, it calls to me. To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars! The morning fog may chill the air I don′t care! My love waits there in San Francisco Above the blue and windy sea When I come home to you, San Francisco, your golden sun will shine for me!
