Merry Christmas in Love
Things that tremble tingle like a bubble full of rainbows… then crack
Sizzle, sing and whisper, when the shadows lace the moonlight with black (more…)
Call It Stormy Monday (But Tuesday Is Just as Bad) T-Bone Walker
They call it stormy Monday but Tuesday’s just as bad
They call it stormy Monday but Tuesday’s just as bad
Wednesday is worse and Thursday’s also sad
The eagle flies on Friday; Saturday I go out to play
The eagle flies on Friday; Saturday I go out to play
Sunday I go to church, hmm ,
That’s when I get down on my knees and pray
I said Lord have mercy,
Oh Lord, Lord, Lord have mercy on me
Yeah Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord have mercy on me
Don’t you know I’m just trying to find my baby
Won’t somebody please send him on home to me
Oh yeah
Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me,
Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me,
Don’t you know I’m just trying to find my baby
Won’t somebody please send him on home to me
Taking a Chance On Love is available on the CD album Renee Olstead.
From Wikepedia:
“Taking a Chance on Love” is a popular song, by Vernon Duke, John Latouche, and Ted Fetter, published in 1940, which has become a standard, recorded by many artists. It was introduced in the 1940 show Cabin in the Sky, a ground-breaking Broadway musical with an all black cast, where it was performed by Ethel Waters and Dooley Wilson. The re-released Benny Goodman version featuring Helen Forrest reached #1 in 1943.
