Song Details from the album New Beginnings |
|||||
One day Julie brought Doug this slow song, performed by we really don’t remember who. It was a classic Hoagy Carmichael song and it wasn’t Stardust. We both really liked it and developed an arrangement that ended up being not very similar to what we’d originally heard. Julie really gives an inspired performance. It was one of those “one-take” vocal sessions that you hear about but rarely happens. Even though after a million listenings we heard a few small vocal flubs (I bet you’ll never hear them), we decided to not try and fix anything. The original captured the mood perfectly.

SkylarkLyrics:Skylark Music: Hoagy Carmichael Published: 1941
The Skylark is a bird of open farmland and heath, known throughout its range for the song of the male, which is delivered in hovering flight from heights of 50 to 100 m, when the singing bird may appear as just a dot in the sky from the ground. |
