The very thought of you makes my heart sing Like an April breeze on the wings of spring And you appear in all your splendor My one and only love The shadow's fall and spreads their mystique charms In
I think this is a GREAT version of the classic song.... I guess you have to be a musician to really appreciate that yes? Paul has always loved the old classics and did many with the beatles and wings that he wrote in that style whichi is a testament to him considering the time he did it back in the 1970's. A FABULOUS song and dvd that everyone should have in their collection. so please, just appreciate the beauty of the song and the musicianship not too mention pauls great vocal. peace
Bella interpretación de este romántico Beatle!!! Su voz es tan cálida y al cerrar los ojos es como estar en los 50' .....como en las películas... bailando apasionadamente, suavemente...y llevarlo a la vida real un placer.Me enamoró.
AMAZING AND AWESOME VIDEO WITH MANY GREATS . THE VIDEO WAS EVEN BETTER SEEING THE ARTISTS IMAGE AS WELL AS THE SOUND [ESPECIALLY DIANA KRALL WITH PAUL MCCARTNEY .
Produced by Tommy LiPuma, Recorded by Al Schmitt. This team produced and recorded all of Diana's sessions until Tommy and Al died. It was Tommy's idea to use Diana as the pianist. That's the "Sinatra mic" he's singing into. The entire CD was recorded live in the studio.
Sir you and the general public are tone deaf and probably can not carry a tune in a bucket. That's why they cannot see any difference in this artist and other artist compared to real vocalist who sing in tune without any gadgets other than the aid of a microphone for example Ray Charles and Frank Sinatra. The tone deaf teeny boppers made many a celebrity rich and famous especially in more recent years.
Gosh, what an idiot you are. Macca was highly respected and covered by many great jazz artists from Ella to Frank Sinatra to Grant Green to Brad Mehldau. Are those tone deaf? Miles Davis invited Paul McCartney to play with him. Was he also tone deaf? Check your ears first.
Sinatra has a great version of this. I read somewhere one of Paul's ambitions before the Beatles became famous was to write a song Sinatra would record. I know Sinatra covered George Harrison, not sure if ever McCartney.
I fear this isn't the greatest vehicle for the great, amazing Paul McCartney, or Macca as he's called. Maybe when he was younger, but his voice has to strain a bit too much -- the song requires sublime relaxation. check out Johnny Hartman singing this with John Coltrane.
The woman in the piano is Diana Krall!!! It was preferable she was who was singing!! The better version of this song is that Laura Cole performed with Cris Botti with his trumpet. But this song is also for be performed by Diana Krall perfectly.
Just because the performer's name is McCartney doesn't mean he knocks this out of the park. He doesn't - this ain't his thing, and the emperor has no clothes. Listen to Hartman or Sinatra cover this. On a positive note, let's be grateful it wasn't Krall singing, which might have been even worse.
Together with Lennon, McCartney's was the voice of the sixties - a great rock n roll shouter and pop balladeer BUT he is not a jazz singer as this embarrassingly out of tune rendering proves. Jazz requires a musical sophistication that was way above this Scouser's ability. Yeah, yeah, yeah...
Willie Otoole, I'm a jazz nut. I played tenor sax many years in New Orleans. I now play as a One Man Band entertaining with an arranger keyboard and I do vocals. I'm maybe an average musician or a tad above average. I can't sing this tune any better than Paul here, so I don't sing it. I stick with what I can do and Paul should do likewise. I found out years ago for the most part the public is tone deaf. Most of them can not sing do re me fa so la te do in tune in any key. Thus we have rich and famous out of tune singers who need pitch correction gadgets today. It's really depressing to real musicians with an ear! Sir, are you a musician or are you the one in thousands of the general public who can hear when a person sings out of tune. I'd really like to know. Thanks for reading my comment.
no sophistication in jazz...jazz is life , jazz is the street, a music from the heart...i don't find Paul's effort good, but it's not appalling. Not lousier than if a jazz singer tried to sing "Get back" or " Hi, hi, hi"... Music would be sad if every musician sticked to his comfort zone...
