My dad sang this to me when I was a toddler....he would only change one word...from 'marry sweet Lorraine' to 'carry sweet Lorraine' -- because he would carry me around the house to get me to fall asleep. RIP Nat King Cole and dad...
My mom and dad named me after this song so I feel truly blessed because they spelled my name exactly as it is in the song. I thank God for Nat King Cole a great singer and my great parents.
My 'Sweet Lorraine', my sister , and I, shared this World for over three-quarter's of a Century together. She recently passed and is now with all those loved ones who made us who we are. Our Mom was one of ten Brothers and Sisters and Grandma was still alive. I was the first Grandchild.. once all were married, I had twenty Mom and Dads, All are gone and Sister Lorraine was last tie to a World of Love & Caring.. miss her so!.
I played this for my grandma Lorraine at her nursing home because a long time ago she was a bar tender and her boss would play this for her on the piano every time she would serve people drinks😌
Beautiful song. My Dad always sang it to me, because we were a very musical family. Anyway, I know he's in heaven still singing and I believe he's going to be singing this tune again for your "Sweet Lorraine" . Love Nat King Cole!
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever. It was my grandmas favorite. I remember listening to it on her record player with her. I miss her so much and it makes me happy to hear this. ❤
+Chuck Flowers My mom loved this song too and all Nat's music. She played his music all the time, so I too became a fan! I Love his smooth velvet voice....RIP Nat King Cole; March 17, 1919-February 15, 1965.
My father had a musician sing and play the piano to me for my birthday! He told my fiancé soon to be husband (of 40 years ) that this song is specifically for me! RIP Daddy! Miss him so much.
A client paid me 100 bucks to learn this song in Pittsburgh Pa. 1988 because Nat King Cole sung for for the troops this gent was with in WWII in the Pacific, Nat King Cole has been my mentor as a singer and pianist.
I've just heard this song played on the "repair shop". Ironically, my woodwork teacher uses to sing it to me; a bit embarrassed but special there exists a song with my name in it being the subject!! Beautiful song.
My dad sang the song to me when I was young. I thought he wrote the song for me because he was a musician he played the record for me and I told him I like him singing to me better. What can I say he was my first love!
Got over 5 of his records in a free box the other day and now i've got the Nat King Cole buzz. Also my middle name is Lorraine and i was very very excited to hear it :)
even if for chronological reasons it's absurd, it sounds like he's quoting Stolen moments. I wonder if there's the possibility that Oliver Nelson was inspired by this introduction.
I was watching a show on Netflix and the detective sang this to the cabaret owner...my granddaughter 's middle name is Lorraine. She's going to love this!
When Nat first began singing, crowds booooeed. Up until that point he was known for his very progressive and tasteful jazz recordings, on which he played piano. The boo birds came out one night and Cole, flustered, left the stage in a huff and told Quincy Jones (yes, THAT Quincy Jones) to tell the band to play some incidental music while he composed himself. Quincy said something to the effect of, "Nat, go out there and play "Sweet Lorraine" with just the rhythm section, don't sing, just play. Then, sing on the next number." Cole, somewhat skeptical did as Jones advised and the crowd went nuts!
I grew up listening to Nat Cole (Mum & Dads favourite) and I’ve always shared their love of his particular jazz style. Still makes me think of my childhood.
My Chi-town hero. I was in Grade School when he passed and it still seems strange. Something wonderful though....years later I graduated from his same High School and he was also a resident of my community and was the Classmate of John H. Johnson, Founder and Published of Ebony/Jet. I loved Mr. Cole, especially when he had a 15 minute (would you believe 15 minutes) show on Television. All the family would gather around the TV. What a man. :)
Thanks for this rendition of Sweet Lorraine with Nat King Cole doing the singing. There is at least one other version of that tune available on TH-cam in which he does the singing. You have provided the best of the two I think. My attention was called to Nat King Cole singing Sweet Lorraine while I was reading a Japanese novel; that book is 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami. TH-cam offers a 1946 recording [Metronome All Stars] of the tune with Frank Sinatra singing and Nat King Cole playing piano.
To everyone that loves this song I wish I could have met Nat King Cole. That is some treasure this world had. This world was lucky to have heard his music and his heart. He was a man of soul.
My Dad named me after this song. He loved Nat King Cole .... Only spelling it Loraine and my grandfather called me Lori and it stuck ... Hardly anyone knows my real name. BUT I love the song!
All singers have some appeal to me. But there is a certain quality to Cole's voice and style that's most compelling. I started enjoying Cole when he was still with his trio in the early 40's. There's nothing in his repertoire that I do not enjoy.
'Sweet Lorraine' is a song from All Girls Go To Heaven. It is sung by Soul Evans who finally performs in a talent show with the help of Roxanne and Akira.
I just lost my sweet Lorrayne after 45 years. God I miss her so but she’s Free of this world
🦋✨
Aye bro she’s in a better world 🙏🙏
45 Blessed Years! She will wait for you good brother!
ahhhh. an anonymous hug from a singer...Bon courage.
I lost my Sweet Lorraine after 46 years. Heartbroken.
My dad sang this to me when I was a toddler....he would only change one word...from 'marry sweet Lorraine' to 'carry sweet Lorraine' -- because he would carry me around the house to get me to fall asleep. RIP Nat King Cole and dad...
Beautiful memory to have.Oui.
Please listen to Lou Reed's She's a Wild Child.

I used to sing my three kids to sleep! (Usually Gershwin songs). That was 30 years ago.

Nat installed our name"Lorraine" into the romance dictionary
🙋🏽♀️💝💖💝
Wish I had sang this to my own Sweet Lorraine in my life while I still could have 😔❤ I'm sure she would love this song 😊🎂🐭
Best jazz intro as far as I'm concerned.

Un matrimonio di Pupi Avati splendida fiction
My mom had this Nat King Cole famous song and used to play it for me. I was named after an actress named Lorraine Day.
First time hearing this love it that was my Mom's name.
Magnifique cette chanson....
Merci "Luar Furyado"🌺 pour cet ajout Jazz so Jazz des Cliff Burwell, Mitchell Parish, interprété par le sweet Nat King Cole 💖♪ ♫ 🎸🎷 🎻🎹🎺🌺🎧🎼🎩🎩🎩

Beautiful song that my dad named me after....Lorayne.
Hola, vengo del ultimo capitulo de "El Taxidermista".
¿Alguien mas cómo yo?
I grew up listening to Nat Cole (Mum & Dads favourite) and I’ve always shared their love of his particular jazz style. Still makes me think of my childhood.
My mother used to play the Johnny Mathis version when I was probably 4. It was my favorite song. At that age I was called Rainy
Reminds me of my Dad and his Jazz LPs. Good Times.
My Chi-town hero. I was in Grade School when he passed and it still seems strange. Something wonderful though....years later I graduated from his same High School and he was also a resident of my community and was the Classmate of John H. Johnson, Founder and Published of Ebony/Jet. I loved Mr. Cole, especially when he had a 15 minute (would you believe 15 minutes) show on Television. All the family would gather around the TV. What a man. :)
I’m from Lorraine and I love this song !
Simply the best. I love this version, his voice, personality, poise, piano style, ensemble. He had it all.
RIP to nat king cole
WUAB-TV Lorain/Cleveland would play this at Sign On way back when!
a nice voice dear nat king cole, a legand of music
This is so beautiful
Thanks for this rendition of Sweet Lorraine with Nat King Cole doing the singing. There is at least one other version of that tune available on TH-cam in which he does the singing.

Great tune. Great rendition.
Fantastic sound quality. Really does the man justice! Thank you!!!!
To everyone that loves this song I wish I could have met Nat King Cole. That is some treasure this world had. This world was lucky to have heard his music and his heart. He was a man of soul.
😮😂❤
this guy's got IT in his DNA
COOOOOL !!!
I'm so sorry for your great loss. My daughter is having a baby girl in June, & is naming her Lorraine! God Rest Her Soul! GBY. 💜

My father named me after this song 🎵 59 years ago 🥰
Nat King cole sweeth Lorraine.😄
Sounds like Christmas for some reason. :)
Nat is always great at Christmas. Chestnuts by an open fire/Jack Frost nipping at your nose ..
Heck! I had to check myself - it's only mid May! 😂😂
an angel passed by
Nice song, thanks.
This is his best version!!
Oh my sweet Lorrayne C. 🫶🏻 1:11
Ahhhh!!!
My gmom making me listen to this it's pretty good...
I’m reading 1Q84
I was named after this song x
I know of a beautiful woman name Lorraine who I love very much.
Nota 1.000!!!
This song got me all fucked up in 2019.
My Dad named me after this song. He loved Nat King Cole .... Only spelling it Loraine and my grandfather called me Lori and it stuck ... Hardly anyone knows my real name. BUT I love the song!
A song with my name 🤗
All singers have some appeal to me. But there is a certain quality to Cole's voice and style that's most compelling. I started enjoying Cole when he was still with his trio in the early 40's. There's nothing in his repertoire that I do not enjoy.
My thoughts exactly ! A great singer, a great jazz piano player and above all, a great man and father. It's sad we lose the great ones early.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Check out Johnny Smith's version of this for a very excellent jazz guitar rendition of this song
'Sweet Lorraine' is a song from All Girls Go To Heaven. It is sung by Soul Evans who finally performs in a talent show with the help of Roxanne and Akira.
My parents got married to this song!
My Daddy would play this over and over....till my Mama would get pissed cuz her name wasn't Lorraine? 😉
