Ill be there too, but for now , this is something to remember till my last day. If anyone knows the song playing please post the name.
@56Packman... Well ... By: Jazzwayze. on 19 Jan 12, 22:29:19 @56Packman... Well said This modern nonsense results in the ridiculous practice of asking permission of the composer, or original performer? to 'cover' a song. Instead of feeling good that another artist would want to 'cover' your work, and be content with pocketing the 'performance rights' royalties.
Thanks for this post of course. Great to hear the 'man' again.
? Groovy, Packman. ... By: peetie25. on 08 Nov 11, 08:31:21 ? Groovy, Packman. Thanks for the history lesson.
This isn't "a cover ... By: 56Packman. on 07 Nov 11, 19:40:31 This isn't "a cover", that term didn't exist when this? was recorded. This song, like others from the 20s-early 50s are "standards" , which many, many singers performed. The term "cover" is a by-product of the rock-folk singer-songwriter phenomonon, the idea that the only "legitimate" version of a song is the inital version by the singer-songwriter.

Thank you so much ... By: tangfastico. on 17 Jan 10, 01:40:38 Thank you so much for? posting this! Billy was my dad's favourite male singer. He saw Mr. Eckstein live a couple of times in the 1950s and had quite a few of his songs on 78s which I have inherited! I often think of my dad and finding this brought back many happy memories! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

obama is more white ... By: OBAMAisHalfCaste. on 18 Dec 10, 20:13:03 obama is more white because he was raised by his white family and has no knowlege of any black american or african peoples struggles in life. he only knows life from a white perspective. and he also looks more caucasian? aswell.

Big Freshman fan ... By: Greenbrendamarie. on 25 Aug 11, 15:08:11 Big Freshman fan but this song has to be one of their poorest efforts. Am I off base on this? Glad? they don't do it now. Long live the freshman hope they can figure out how to appeal to the next generation.
This? is cool, but ... By: subg88. on 10 Dec 10, 22:34:40 This? is cool, but the lyrical alteration makes no sense. "Forgivin is easy/She's a woman like now and then might happen to things"?!? What the hey does that mean? Should be "it's a woman-like, now and then might happen thing." Why change it? These lyric writers knew what they're doing, that's why they were working with the likes of Hoagy Carmichael.
