Summertime (The Gershwin Version)

Recommended Posts

(George Gershwin cover)

 

Summertime
& the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
& the cotton, the cotton is high

Oh, your daddy, he's rich
& your ma, she's good lookin'
So hush, little baby
Don't you cry

One of these mornings
You're going to rise up singing
You gonna spread your wings
& take, and take to the sky
Until that morning
Ain't nothing can harm you
With daddy and mammy standing by

Standing by
Standing by, little baby
Standing by

We've been duped. We're not getting this album ?

Ironically enough, the day you posted this was from two days before she took that picture outside of capitol records :giggle: you manifested! x

I actually really like this cover. It's not my favorite one she's ever done, but I think she sounds great on it. And the video is so sweet :heart:

I think this is one of the weaker things she ever done, but glad we got a cute video. I just find her singing weirdly flat and corny and am confused as to why she didn’t use her gorgeous jazz vocals a la honeymoon & the other woman/the good life instead…

Omg well to each their own, it’s one of my favs she’s ever done but I know a fair amount of ppl don’t care for it 

The biggest turn off for me is how it opens. It's such an ugly start to a song. And then later in the song the vocals sound unpolished unlike the rest of the album.
