CK & Nat King Cole

[Pelican1]

Hey. I came across this song today on my iPod and it just seemed so ironic how it stirs up such memories of the first time I met CK at the first Sunday party we had at Stonewall this past summer. While the day I met CK didn't quite go exactly like this, it really was a moment I don't think I'll ever forget. So here it is, in honor of him. I know many of you will remember this classic, probably sung by many people, but my favorites are Nat King Cole's and Natalie Cole's renditions...

 

 

That Sunday, That Summer

 

If I had to choose just one day

to live my whole life through,

it would surely be that Sunday,

the day that I met you.

 

Newborn whippoorwhils were calling from the hills.

Summer was a'coming in but fast.

Lots of daffodils were showing off their skills,

Nodding all together,

I could almost hear them whisper,

"Go on, kiss him. Go on and kiss him."

 

If I had to choose one moment

to live within my heart,

It would be that tender moment,

recalling how we started.

Darling it would be

when you smiled at me...

that way...

that sunday...

that summer......

The Unforgettable Nat King Cole

 

Pelican,

 

Here's my all time favorite Nat King Cole song. You can sing it to CK next time you see him. :-)

 

Unforgettable

 

Unforgettable

That's what you are,

Unforgettable

Tho' near or far.

 

Like a song of love that clings to me,

How the thought of you does things to me.

Never before

Has someone been more...

 

Unforgettable

In every way,

And forever more

That's how you'll stay.

 

That's why, darling, it's incredible

That someone so unforgettable

Thinks that I am

Unforgettable, too.

Unforgettable

In every way,

And forever more

That's how you'll stay.

 

That's why, darling, it's incredible

That someone so unforgettable

Thinks that I am

Unforgettable, too

Rendie,

 

I love that one, too. Only the last part doesn't apply in the real world, of course. I appreciate you taking the time to write out the whole thing so nicely...hopefully it brought good feelings to you as you did it.

 

Novice, I don't think you should be allowed to comment until you actually SHOW UP at one of the shows again, party pooper.

Yes, copy/paste is simply marvelous!!

 

Sorry, I simply couldn't resist.

 

Seriously though, I used to play NKC alot in my "younger" years. The songs were on 45's or LP's. Is my age showing yet?

 

 

enjoy

More Songs for CK

 

Another song that I just heard is "We Kiss in a Shadow" and "I have dreamed" from "The King & I". Both very much about my dreams of CK. I don't have time to write the lyrics right now, but if you know the songs... well then you know what I'm talking about.
