I'm in the middle of a "brain-fog!" I can only vaguely recall the "Longines" program! I'm originally from the NYC area. Was this program based there also? I, too was just a kid when I 1st saw this. As for the "hotter" part, I'm in your corner! Peggy could elicit a more erotic response just by being, than could Madonna and Janet Jackson by having "wardrobe malfunctions!" Bravo YOU! I'm happy to hear from you!
Sorry for the delay in responding. I'm elated that you have enjoyed this so much. Ms. Lee was amazing here! She had it all; beauty, sex-appeal and one hell of an interesting voice! Thanks again!
Peggy hadda FIGHT to get her record company to RELEASE this SURREAL arrangement. Luckily she WON! However, I notice in this film they ADDED a "final" note to the bizarre OPEN ending on said record.
I'm so ashamed! This is from "The Jazz Singer." It's from 1952. Even now in the process of updating the information. I'm hoping your message was as much a query, as a compliment? Either way, best wishes and thanks for your comment!
I forgot to note that the arrangement was entirely her idea, transcribed by Gordon Jenkins. Before this, "Lover" had always been a quiet waltz. Peggy was multi-talented.
OMG! My head is spinning. I LOVE this woman! I just read a great biography of her called "Fever - the Life and Music of Miss Peggy Lee" byPeter Richmond - highly recommended. An amazing story about an amazing woman.
Whoever the fools are who gave this a thumbs down need to have their hearing checked because they are literally tone deaf. Peggy's pitch, tone and modulation are a revelation. A brilliant musical genius at her absolute pinnacle!
Thanks so much snaaptaker! Leave it to me to neglect the finer points! Sorry about that, but thank you for having remedied the situation! Best wishes, varadero
I gotta plead the 5th on Dusty Springfield; I don't know much about her. Will look here on YT! As for being sick in the head, think we're both members of said club. Will see you at the next meeting. Best to you, and thanks for writing!
