My father was born in 1928 and passed away when he was 92. This was one of his favorite songs. It’s one of my favorites, too. I played this recording for Dad before he died. He loved it. He said that Michael did it right. And that’s good enough for me.
A cigarette that bears a lipsticks' traces An airline ticket to romantic places And still my heart has wings These foolish things remind me of you A tinkling piano in the next apartment Those stumbling words that told you what my heart meant A fairgrounds' painted swing These foolish things remind me of you I know that this was bound to be These things have haunted me For you, my dear, enchanted me The winds of March that make my heart a dancer A telephone that ring, but whose to answer? Oh, how the ghost of you clings These foolish things remind me of you The smile of Garbo And the scent of roses The waiters' whistlin' as the last bar closes The songs that Crosby sings These foolish things remind me of you Babe, these things remind me of you
Mat king Cole and Micheal’s versions are so great. For different reasons. Nat king Cole because it’s reminiscent of a different era. Micheal’s voice and band always nails it and there’s the residual class of an earlier time. But really I Micheal’s interview on graham nortons show helps put him over the top. He’s just so down to earth. And funny.
This song did not deserve to underperform. I feel after the "Blood in My Eye" era, Ja suffered multiple setbacks caused by the industry's support for 50 in wake of the pair's feud. I find it mind-numbing that the public couldn't just simply enjoy both artists and let the beef die out on its own. When you mix the public outlook with personal conflict, it's only gonna result in disaster and sadly that's what the outcome was... that and Murda Inc.'s long paper trail of legal issues.
You are so right. Not just this song or ja , but people missed out on really good music because of petty beef. That they had 0 involving in. Heck I used to be that way..
I completely agree, this song should've been a huge hit and the "mixtape" that should've been his album ...The Mirror, was arguably his most sonically in tune body of work when you play it straight through
