  • I have previously uploaded Keely Smith's excellent version of "I Wish You Love," but here is another terrific version recorded by Gloria Lynne in 1963 on the Everest label, reaching #28 on the Billboard Hot 100, #10 on the Easy Listening, and #3 on Cashbox Magazine's R&B chart in 1964. It was included in the LP of the same name which is available on CD on Essential Media. The song was originally written in French by Charles Trenet and the English lyric by Albert Beach. I do not own the right to the song, audio, or images contained in this video. The sound recording is administered by IODA. No copyright infringement is intended. The purpose of this upload is for viewer enjoyment and education not for monetary gain.

    I had just heard this song on a jazz station, but couldn't remember who it was. I first guessed Dinah Washington, but then decided it was Della Reese. Wrong both times. What a gorgeous voice! And I knew nothing about Ms. Lynne, then read the Wikipedia article and was appalled to read that she, like so many others, was exploited by rotten music executives and "left penniless." What a world.

I was little but my godmother made me learn Nancy, Miss Lynn, and for some reason today this song is just in my spirit. I don’t have either one of them walking this earth. I’m telling you I thank you thank you Meme for making me learn the words to this and I think My Mom for sitting back and laughing and clapping Harlem USA family memories. They always wish me luck. I think I got it now.😢❤

    I remember hearing this beautiful recording on rock'n'roll radio in 1964, mixed in with the Beatles Stones Animals and the rest who dominated the airwaves at the time. It seems music was less segregated by genre back then -- Nancy Wilson, Theola Kilgore, Peggy Lee and so many others somehow managed to get airtime during the British invasion. To this day, I'm glad they did; they left an indelible mark on my musical tastes.

    I wish you bluebirds in the spring to give your heart a song to sing
    And then a kiss but more than this
    I wish you love
    And in July a lemonade to cool you in some leafy glade
    I wish you health and more than wealth

    So with my best, my very best, I set you free

    A cozy fire to keep you warm
