I love the old fashioned things

I'm old fashioned


john coltrane


ella fitzgerald


I am not such a clever one
about the latest fads
I admit I was never one
adored by local lads

not that I ever try to be a saint
I'm the type that they classify as quaint

I'm old fashioned
I love the moonlight
I love the old fashioned things

the sound of rain
upon a window pane
the starry song that april sings

this year's fancies
are passing fancies
but sighing sighs holding hands
these my heart understands

I know I'm old fashioned
but I don't mind it
that's how I want to be
as long as you agree
to stay old fashioned with me

I'm old fashioned
but I don't mind it
that's how I want to be
as long as you agree
to stay old fashioned with me

(composed by Jerome Kern / lyrics written by Johnny Mercer)

bewitched, bothered and bewildered

ella fitzgerald (rodgers and hart)



couldn't sleep and wouldn't sleep
when love came and told me, I shouldn't sleep
bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I


Esta canción es sólo una de las muchas razones por las que creo que nunca sabré cómo darle las gracias a la persona que me enganchó a esta música…
