Dalida_Never On Sunday (1960)

A beautiful rendition of Windmills Of Your Mind by the Hungarian jazz artist Edina.  I personally love one take wonders for their imperfections.   

The Windmill Of Your Mind

An adaptation of "Les Feuilles Mortes", originally composed by Joseph Kosma and lyrics by French surrealist poet Jacques Prévert. The (more popular)English version is called "Autumn Leaves" and is a Jazz standard made famous by, among others, Nat King Cole. 

Most Jazz fusion with Indian classical music tends to center around the Indian side, with the Jazz arrangement being an accompaniment. This is an attempt to do the reverse. The violin tries to embellish the main melody with improvisation in the Harmonic minor (Keeravani). 

Lyrics

C'est une chanson qui nous ressemble.
This song is like us.

Toi, tu m'aimais et je t'aimais
You used to love me and I used to love you

Et nous vivions tous les deux ensemble,
And we used to live together,

Toi qui m'aimais, moi qui t'aimais.
You loving me, me loving you

Mais la vie sépare ceux qui s'aiment,
But life separates lovers,

Tout doucement, sans faire de bruit
Pretty slowly, noiselessly,

Et la mer efface sur le sable
And the sea erases on the sand

les pas des amants désunis. 
The separated lovers' footprints.

ps: Please excuse the poor French pronunciation.

what it is
is what it is
and what it ain’t
don’t worry me
things I do
don’t weigh me down
what goes around
comes around
and if I have a song to sing
what I have is everything

i have a cure for the lonely silence
a tonic for the low hanging blues
i’ve got a same-old-same-old discombobulator
that sets my toes a-tappin in my shoes
i have the whole world waiting at my doorstep
and friends who love me for myself
i have a million billion galaxies above me
and tonight I’m glad I’m not somebody else

what it is
is what it is
and what it ain’t
don’t worry me
things I do
don’t weigh me down
what goes around
comes around
and if I have a song to sing
what I have is everything

i have a cure for the lonely silence
a tonic for the low hanging blues
i’ve got a same-old-same-old discombobulator
that sets my toes a-tappin in my shoes
i have the whole world waiting at my doorstep
and friends who love me for myself
i have a million billion galaxies above me
and tonight I’m glad I’m not somebody else

what it is
is what it is
and what it ain’t
don’t worry me
things I do
don’t weigh me down
what goes around
comes around
and if I have a song to sing
what I have is everything

What It Is

Yesterday, When I Was Young - Al Martino

And you know I can't smile without you
I can't smile without you
And you must know what I'm goin' through
I just can't smile without you

Some people say the happiness wave
Is somethin' that's hard to find
Into the new, leavin' the old behind me

And I feel sad when you're sad
I feel glad when you're glad
And you must know what I'm goin' through
I just can't smile without you

Englebert humperdink - how i love you(9)

Thanks for listening to my music. I'm in the music scene for more than 50 years now, played thousands of gigs and released 15 albums. Never made it to the big stage, always a musicians musician, just a nicer word for having no success. Never been into mainstream music, love people like Leonard Cohen or Tom Waits, outsiders who defined an own musicology. Like it or not, I'm always trying to deliver quality music, hopefully some people will find a couple of tracks they like to listen to again. This will make my day, thanks.
