April In Paris
Clifford Brown; Sarah Vaughan Lyrics


I never knew the charm of spring
I never met it face to face
I never knew my heart could sing
I never missed a warm embrace

Till April in Paris, chestnuts in blossom
Holiday tables under the trees
April in Paris, this is a feeling
That no one can ever reprise
I never knew the charm of spring
I never met it face to face
I never knew my heart could sing
I never missed a warm embrace

Till April in Paris
Whom can I run to?
What have you done to my heart?

A recurring sublime melody that brings me to tears. Especially when I've had a few. Then here comes Clifford.

5:00 Listen how she sings "reprise...I never knew the charm of Spring" all in one beautifully controlled breath. Amazing!

Sally Bowles

To be honest Doris Day does the same, and others too, so maybe in the original version it said to do it like this. Of course this version is number one

Henry Tozer

This is the version that made me fall in love with this song... I've just recorded it myself and released it on my own YouTube Channel here... I come nowhere close to Sarah (or the greats of the time), but I'm doing my bit to try to bring this beautiful music - a time when music had grace and sincerity - to new generations. I'd love you to listen and let me know what you think.

Michael

One of the gems of music, Sarah.... the amtosphere on this piece is pure art

Thomas Lombardo

One of the many gems she recorded with Clifford Brown. . Glorious from beginning to end.

Donald Penegar

One of the best. Vocalist of all time Beautiful track Love sassy
.

Donald Fedosiuk

Amazing how the beginning of Clifford's solo so eerily replicates the sound of a human voice!

Jack Gedzelman

An enormously talented performer. Her singing was all soul and simply unforgetable

Jack

I'm here because of Ishiguro's book. I'm so glad i checked this song. So beautiful
