Eydie Gormé (alternative spelling Eydie Gorme); born Edith Gormezano, 16 August 1928 is an American singer credited heavily, along with husband Steve Lawrence, with helping to keep the classic Traditional pop music repertoire alive and well. She still continues to entertain and tour with husband Steve.
Throughout her long career she has been the recipient of numerous awards, including the Grammy Award and the Emmy Award. The couple's striking union of broad ballads and breezy swing has combined with the endurance of their marriage and their comic facility to make them American institutions---even though neither of the couple, as separate performers or together, has put a single into the American Top 40 since 1963.Gormé enjoyed a few hit singles on her own, none selling bigger than 1963's "Blame it on the Bossa Nova", which was also her final foray into the Top 40 pop charts). Still, she won a Grammy Award for Best Female Vocal Performance in 1967, for her version of "If He Walked Into My Life", from the stage musical Mame. The latter made No. 5 on the Billboard magazine Easy Listening chart in 1966 despite failing to make the Billboard Hot 100. Indeed, most of Gorme's singles chart success from 1963 onward was on the Easy Listening/Adult Contemporary side, where she charted 27 singles (both solo and with her husband) from 1963 to 1979 (of which "If He Walked Into My Life" was the most successful). As a soloist, her other biggest hits during that period included "What Did I Have That I Don't Have?" from the musical On a Clear Day You Can See Forever (No. 17 Easy Listening, 1966) and "Tonight I'll Say a Prayer" (No. 45 Pop and No. 8 Easy Listening, 1969, also her last Hot 100 entry as a solo artist).
Gormé gained crossover success in the Latin music market through a series of albums she made in Spanish with the famed Trio Los Panchos. In 1964, the two acts joined forces for a collection of Spanish-language standards called Amor. Their recording of the song "Sabor a Mi" became closely identified with Gormé and has emerged as one of her signature tunes. The disc was later reissued as Canta en Espanol. In 1965, a sequel appeared called More Amor (later reissued as Cuatro Vidas). Her last album with Los Panchos was a 1966 Christmas collection, Navidad Means Christmas, later reissued as Blanca Navidad. Gormé also recorded other Spanish albums in her career, including the Grammy-nominated La Gormé (1976), a contemporary outing. The 1977 release Muy Amigos/Close Friends, a duet collection with Puerto Rican singer Danny Rivera, also received a Grammy nomination.
No Te Vayas Sin Mi
Eydie Gorme y Los Panchos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No te vayas sin mí
No me dejes así
Tan lejos, tan lejos de ti
Amor
No te vayas sin mí
Que no ves que al partir
Porque
El destino es tan cruel
No perdona el dolor
Y quiere robarme tu ser
Amor
Por favor, no te vayas sin mí
Que no puedo vivir un minuto alejado de ti
Amor
No te vayas sin mí
No me dejes así
Tan lejos, tan lejos de ti
Amor
No te vayas sin mí
Que no ves que al partir
Todito destrozas en mí
Porque
El destino es tan cruel
No perdona el dolor
Y quiere robarme tu ser
Amor
Por favor, no te vayas sin mí
Que no puedo vivir un minuto alejada de ti
Alejada de ti
Alejada de ti
This song, No Te Vayas Sin Mí, by Eydie Gorme & Los Panchos, is a beautiful and passionate plea to a lover not to leave. The lyrics are simple yet powerful, conveying the intense emotions that come with the fear of abandonment. The singer implores their lover to stay, emphasizing the pain that would come with their departure. The theme of lost love and heartbreak is well explored in this song - the singer is aware that the cruel hand of fate could take their lover away, leaving them alone and helpless.
The song also touches on the idea of fate - that sometimes things happen beyond our control, and we're helpless to prevent them. The singer acknowledges that the pain of losing their lover would be too much, and that they would be unable to carry on without them. The lyrics beautifully capture the sense of longing and desperation that comes with the fear of losing someone you love. The melody of the song is also beautiful, with the haunting guitar and the harmony of the voices blending together perfectly to create a deeply emotional and powerful ballad.
