- 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.

One of the most underrated singers of our time. She excels.
This is the definitive version of this classic song. That honeyed voice, that phrasing, she really knew the best way to showcase the music and lyrics. Gloria Lynne never gained the fame she deserved, but this song will always bring her to our hearts.❤
This was Gloria Lynne's song. She nailed it every time. We met and became friends. She was a wonderful person and a terrific singer.
Because she sang from her ❤️ heart
@@pensa57 Exactly!!!! I am doing a few of her songs in my show in September NYC
ABSO FUKIN LUTELY Facts 👏🏾🤎
This song tears my heart apart. I love it so much. Classic. Meaningful. Heartfelt. Duende.
Good god what a beautiful woman Gloria was. Her voice, looks, everything.
No matter who sings this song.. Gloria Lynne is always my favorite 🖤
I agree with you on that! Her voice and the music always resonated with me.
ABSO FUKIN LUTELY Facts 👏🏾🤎
My mom played this song when I was a child; I still know the words verbatim! They hit different these days as a 57 yr old!
ABSO FUKIN LUTELY Facts 👏🏾🤎
My mom used to play this every day when I was a kid I am 63 years old now and I find myself play almost on a daily basis thanks Mom r i p Magdalene Edwards Bracken Palmer
Rest in Peace🙏
This is my first time hearing about her. I love the voice!
Your mom had great taste in music>
@@whodatsuperbowlqueen5778 thank you very kindly
My Mom too, Thank God for Moms 🤎
Amazing, my sister from Whales, my fathers daughter and now my Big Sister who I met around twelve months ago, wrote a line on a card she sent me. It brought back memories of a calm and happy household FULL of music. How did my sister know, oceans apart, this was a family favorite. Amazing God of Love!
Thank you, Miss Lynne, for keeping my parents alive with your music. Forever and ever, i wish YOU love.
my mom loved this song! she has since passed...I've rediscovered the power of this beautiful jewel and it does remind of my mom
I can remember sitting on the couch would you believe we lived in Harlem? We had a pink loveseat. Don’t forget the plastic that was on it.😅 my godmother and my mom were bookings. 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.😢❤
My 96 father love Gloria Lynn, thanks for all your beautiful songs, love you dad
The voice quality -- even aside from the beauty of the song -- is remarkable. I'm glad I was there and a young man when it was popular.
My first love and we married in 1976. This is one of albums that he loved. He died in 2010. Miss him terribly. Just came across this song.You
Just discovered her today!❤
My mom loved this song and when Xmas came she had me and my brother Rick go to Woolworths and purchase a Gloria lynne album. We brought back the wrong one and she told us to go back and get the right one, "I wish you love,". Miss her so much: RIP Rita McCollins
This song I sang in my High School production. When I started my professional singing career this song was always my opening number. I am now 75 and did a recording again of this song for a reunion of that first High School performance. . This will always be a song near and Dear to my heart.
Reliving my childhood with my Beloved Mother. So perfect a memory. Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
I was lucky enough to play a set with her in Harlem, ca 1993.
My favorite version of this song. I don’t know if Gloria Lynn sang it first but I like her’s better than all the others.
I love her voice. This is my first time hearing Gloria. Why wasn't she a star? I love her voice.
Although Keely Smith was first to sing this, and she sang it good, but I agree I prefer Gloria Lynne. I believe it was Gloria who I heard this when I was 3-4 year old when my parents turned on the radio. I'm now in my 60s.
@@pecintakebenaran2147 OK, I get it!
In the Jazz community she was/is. My Mom loved her, Abbey Lincoln, Nina Simon and Nancy Wilson, and I grew up loving them as well.
@@xell5252 Thanks for the information. I just love her voice.
@@whodatsuperbowlqueen5778 lord willing, check out her song "The Folks Who Live On The Hill" or any song on this album,, "Gloria Lynne Gloria, Marty & Strings", actually, listen to anything by her, it's all great
My daddy used to listen to Gloria Lynne when I was a kid. I love this song...
Mine too
Definitely in the list of the top best songs ever written. You can play this on a banjo and it still would be beautiful.
What a great song and voice. Its just so beautiful. We need more voices like that today........
Jc Bennerman, it’s four years ago that you made this comment I’m responding to. I agree. However, this won’t be allowed to happen. It so sad. But it’s true.
Yes
Give Samara Joy a listen.
What a lovely song!
Soooo absolutely glad I found this on Instagram!!!🎶💖🎶👑✨🙏🏾✨
LOVINGLY AWESOME
This song (version) always makes me cry, its So Beautiful, sad & perfect all at once
Why haven't we heard of her!? Wow! Such a voice.
Best version of this song ever!!
I had never heard this. She has a voice I could listen to all day. RIP
I left this song on the front seat of my true loves car back in 1963 I think of him often and wish him well BB
CLASSIC!
Do you think if we could hear more wonderful love songs like this one it might be a better world. In the mean time I wish you love.
For me this song represents the quintessential signature song of Ms. Lynn ....some may argue other wise. Not only is this a beautiful song in and of itself but Ms. Lynn's masterful renditioning is for me....flawless. Perhaps it's because it was the first recording I fell in love as a kid and she happened to the one singing it....... To die and part is a less evil; but to part and live, there, there is the torment.....but I wish you love
INDEED
The Incomparable Velvet Voice of Miss Gloria Lynn!
Her is as smooth as the violins in the background All-Pro music just listen......
I love Gloria Lynne singing this song. It has haunted me since I was a young teenager. I have the 45 rpm of this yet.
That was the same with me my mother will play I'm glad there is you when I was real young I still listen to it today and the second one was I wish you love still missing you Mom but Gloria Lynne keep the memories flowing
November 23rd: Happy birthday Jazz Singer Gloria Wilson / Gloria Lynne (1929-2013)...Rhythm & Blues Foundation Pioneer Award. Thank you for sharing your gifts. RIP...Thank you for the upload, catman916. Blessings
my first true love back in 1963. this is the song that she presented to me because, we could never be. i knew it when we started, it would end. Sad day for me. Still think of her after all these years.
My first and most lasting affair of the heart ended in 1963--this song came along at just the right time to express the feelings that come with an ending that you always wish never came. Changed my life forever.
jgv007 whats the story if you dont mind ?
I left this record in my boyfriends car in 1963 he was one of the ones I could never forget and never have I wish you well.❤️
I
In
Very nice tribute. Her songs were gold, what a voice.
Pure and Beautiful voice of many voices in the genre.
I have the 45 RPM of this recording I bought at the ripe old age of 16.
What a lovely time, this is for you. Life goes on!
A Timeless, Voice, Personality, Linguist, a Word Smith. An Angel.
My Mom loves ❤ her music so much that she named me "Gloria Lynne"
I just discovered Gloria lynne,Lynne, a voice!
Sooo beautiful
Great memories from this beautiful song
sing it now, Gloria Lynne!!! The epitome of "lady jazz"
Beautiful song. and she does a superb job !
Grew up listening to this song by her and my mother, Who sang it just as beautiful as Ms.Lynne (my opinion), nevertheless Ms.Lynne's ,and Mom had their respective style"s to say the least.
Beautiful, talented, classy.
NO LIE, my mother had a passion for the old female Jazz and Blues singers: Sarah Vaughn, Nancy Wilson et al., but when I was 2 Yrs old this was her favorite song, I Wish You Love, specifically the Gloria Lynne version despite her affection for Nancy Wilson. As for the "NO LIE" part, I learned how to sing this song, start to finish, without missing a single lyric, BEFORE I COULD TALK. I was singing this song before I was talking.
Clean cut...simply beautiful
The movie U turn brought me here.....
What a amazing song.
Beautiful!
'Keely Smith as well, a fabulous singer especially on lush ballads like this one
The lyrics and music flow so smoothly!
WAYY TOO SMOOTH
Just Beautiful My favorite version of this song
My favorite version too.
FANTASTIC VOICE , SIMPLY SWEET !
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.
Smiling such a true song
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.
This rendition by Gloria Lynne is the only one I know, and the only one that counts. Back in the day, I knew an Austrian gentleman who loved it, and I taught him the lyrics. It was our private connection.
Be sure to check out Keely Smith's version which I have also uploaded, Frances. I think that you will like it as well.
@@catman916 Oh, I'm sure all the versions are wonderful, but like any tune, one connects with a particular artist and their unique rendition, as that's where the memory of the individual lies.
This makes you wonder why Gloria isn’t up there with the other great female singers. Her voice is matchless.
beautiful track
A golden Voice.
Pure quality.
For the one who want to know, this song is the english adaptation of the french music "Que reste t'il de nos amour" of Charles Trenet.
I heard this beautiful song in the 60's on WVON.
The Good Guys!
Great songstress; R.I.P., Ms. Lynne.
Beautiful song!!!
Насладилась этой версией. Полный кайф.
Wonderful song and version! Thanks for posting.
One of my unforgettable loved oldies. Her version is close enough to the version I was looking for and can't find it. But I'll still keep on looking. Thanks for this post.
If the sentiments in this song, were expressed every day on the news, it would be a better world. All news stations should be relegated to play a song before each commercial. From this era. See how people feel after hearing this song.
Exquisite
One of the best versions ever!!
I agree. Keely Smith did the original wonderful version.
Goodbye, no use leading with our chins
This is where our story ends
Never lovers, ever friends
Goodbye, let our hearts call it a day
But before you walk away
I sincerely want to say
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
I wish you love
My breaking heart and I agree that you and I could never be
So with my best, my very best, I set you free
I wish you shelter from the storm
A cozy fire to keep you warm
But most of all when snowflakes fall
I wish you love
My breaking heart and I agree that you and I could never be
So with my best, my very best, I set you free
I wish you shelter from the storm
A cozy fire to keep you warm
But most of all when snowflakes fall
I wish you love
Farwell To Miss GLoria Lynne I Love the Memory of your Worly devistatng Artistry.May your Talent Your Legacy Reign Eternally..I will Treasure Sounds of her voice Forever!
George Walker Sr and enjnm
Gloria Lynne's version of this song ranks with the best versions of I Wish You Love that I have ever heard.
Listened on the radio when this song was new...listening now..11/7/19
OMG!! An absolute beautiful voice and lovely song ❤
just the best there is. !
I'd come from school and my mom be in the kitchen as always and I'd hear this song bt Gloria Lynn. I remember this album very well. Mom's went on to her glory God bless her but sometimes l Do Remember. I'm 68 year old now. I remember Gloria.
I used to listen to this song when I was 14-15 years old. It's only now that the meaning hits home. I'm 74.. I had to end it with a much younger guy. Difficult....
One of best versions I've heard
Be sure to check out Keely Smith's version.
catman916 I think you're right. I preferred Keely Smith's!
Docemente afinada...essa canção ,que já é linda,fica mais linda ainda!!!
Great voice!
I remember her from my teen yesrs. I realize that some of the greatest singers csn be underrated because
of poor management. We loved Ms. Lynn and thought of her as one of the very best!!
So frikkin true @boomerang905 I'm a musician and I've seen it first hand. Some mediocre person will get a break and some super-talent won't. So these voices that get remembered as "the best" of a certain era are not necessarily better than someone who just was unlucky enough to have a shitty career. Sucks.
Nice. I grew up hearing the Charles Trenet version: "Que reste t'il de nos amours".
Never heard of Gloria Lynne until this very moment. I'm a tail end baby boomer and only knew this song from Barbra Streisand's 1966 recording. Regardless, Ms Lynne's version is delightful. It has a sensuous, jazzy feel that Ms Streisand's lacks BUT, that said, Streisand's take on it is still my favorite. Please don't hate me.
U should listen to Nancy Wilson's version too.
there will never be another
You have a right to opinion but Gloria happens to be the real deal not taking nothing from Barbara but I'll see Gloria gives her run for her 💰
So beautifull song to share if someone don't want to continue a love story... ♥️🙏
Gorgeous. I discovered Gloria in the 1990s. She did some very fine jazz albums for the Muse and HighNote labels at that time.
🔥 Stylist Vocalist, music 🔥
I can’t but agree with JCBannerman’s comment on this beautiful rendition.
Gloria Lynne was a great singer who often Gigged at the 'Parisian Room' Jazz Club on Washington & La Brea in Los Angeles, 'This recording hopefully will be 'Remastered' sometime in the future 'as it's a 'Gloria Lynne Classic' !!!
This should be the greatest breakup song ever. Saying , we didn’t work out but you’re something special and I wish you the absolute best…
“My breaking heart and I agree that you and I could never be, so with my best, my very best I set you free”
