This is possibly one of the most beautiful, most haunting jazz melodies ever composed (in my humble opinion). I'm always surprised that more people don't know it and that more jazz musicians don't know it. If you don't know it, you should look out for the definitive version by Blossom Dearie.
Big fan of Fiona apple. One day I got drunk and decided to play this playlist and sleep. In my sleep this song came over and in my soporific state I started crying. I don't know why this very song was able to persuade a few tears from my otherwise hollow existence but the feeling was incomparable. I have hardly ever felt so strongly about any song. Can never forget this song. Can't ever forget about you Fiona. You are beautiful and so is your music. Thanks for your creations.
I'm so glad to see that she did these songs. I love her so much; she has such a great talent. And Cy Coleman was a great man- very funny and kind and talented, and I was happy when he joined our family. He is greatly missed by his family and friends, and it's wonderful to hear Fiona's beautiful voice doing honor to his songs.
"My Funny Valentine", "You Don't Know What Love Is", "Someone To Watch Over Me", Just a few of the songs, that are anxiously waiting for her beautiful voice and talent for jazz.
Absolutely love his cover, and Why Try to Change Me Now. So emotionally charged, beautiful, and from the heart. Makes you want to cry, rail, dance, and dream.
What impresses me is definitively her voice expression, absolutely exceptional even if not unique! Yes there is only a bounch of female singers who have this talent to can say wit the voice much more than the melody and the lyrics alone would do; in other words, deep souls who did understand truly what a song is waiting for to can express fully what the author had in heart. There are still so many songs who are waiting for the 'merciful singer' who can understand them and so few singers around who could stop to them and bring them up on the stage to the audience! It's a topic, I know!
Wow.. just wow.. Fiona Apple definitly is now my favorite artist. I have been waiting too long to listen to her, this is real Art. Love you and your music, don' stop ♥
It's really amazing... I just turned 18 and have been listening to her for the past two years. Finding those who were once my age commenting on her masterpieces of songs years and years ago really makes me feel in awe
Fiona Apple is and always will be an outstanding artist. She's one of those true unique artists that come into this world to charm our ears, and yet, are underrated. But in this world of costume dress "artists", where pretty much the glamor and beauty of music doesn't even show itself, this is where real, true, heart giving artists shine, at least we who appreciate music in all it's form can feel and see that. Fiona Apple really does make the difference and for that, I am truly grateful.
Pretending that we'll meet Each time I turn a corner, I walk a little faster Pretending life is sweet 'Cause love's around the corner, I walk a little faster Can't begin to see my future shine as yet No sign as yet, you're mine as yet Rushing to a face I can't define as yet Keep bumping into walls and taking lots of falls And even though I meet 'round each and every corner With nothing but disaster I set my chin a little higher, I hope a little longer Build a little stronger castle in the air And thinking you'll be there, I walk a little faster Can't begin to see my future shine as yet No sign as yet, you're mine as yet Rushing to a face I can't define as yet Keep bumping into walls and taking lots of falls And even though I meet 'round each and every corner With nothing but disaster I set my chin a little higher and I hope a little longer I build a little stronger castle in the air And thinking you'll be there, I walk a little faster
its like she walked inside this song and saw every street and knew just where to go and when to just pause and start again and was able to nail every note and wring every iota of meloncholy out of this wonderful work of art, her extraordinary instincts told her when to walk a little faster
This is what I'm talking about. Smooth as honey, can't get any smoother than this. LOVE IT! Thanks for posting this up :) PS: I agree with you PetruoFan. I'm a hardcore Fiona Fan and would love to see a new album come out soon!
Gr8 song!!!! If the legendary Les Paul were 2 accompany her (RIP, Les) w/ his fabulous guitar playing, I'm sure he'd be all over this adding flavors such as a painter would add color!!!! I LOVE Fiona, (She is in a class all her own!!!!)her music & really appreciate the ABSOLUTELY STUNNING/GORGEOUS PHOTOS!!!! ;-) Thanx!!!!
This is from a tribute album of Cy Coleman songs. Tony Bennett's version is probably the most popular, but it was first sung by Blossom Dearie. Fiona has two songs on the cover album (this and "Why Try to Change Me Now"), but there's many other good recordings on the album from other artists. Also, Fiona's sister is a cabaret singer, so it always seemed fitting for Fiona to sing some jazz songs eventually, especially with her voice.
MAGICAL MISTERY FIONA !!!! This Beatles title would be very much proud of you. COME ON LITTLE CHILD AND SING THIS SONG A THOUSAND OF TIMES FOR US !!!!!
Fiona, since we believe in love, we realize through this song the right way to dance in love...!!!!MAGICAL MISTERY FIONA !!!! YOU STILL LIVE AMONG US, AND WE LIKE IT!!!
Her new album The Idler Wheel is finally here! Its is so powerful and amazing, you guys need to hear it. but first check out her new music video for "Every Single Night".. its wild!
hi folks !! let´s guess...let´s guess...what a hell is going on if we believe in a such much strong CASTLE in the air...I DO. hahaha Little Fiona, all of us are walking a little faster too...Congratulations.
"Pero aunque no encontrara a la vuelta de cada esquina nada salvo un desastre, levantaré un poco más mi barbilla esperaré un poco más construiré un poco más fuerte, un castillo en el aire y pensando que estarás allí... caminaré un poco más rápido"
I am Japanese! She is the important benefactor who changed life for me. The Fiona apple is loved from the bottom of its heart.

Cuz you were drunk
I dream about dead people !
Your comment moved me. I feel the same about her music and that song in particular. I am glad I am not alone in that.
yes her music has that effect
This song moves me as well. Fiona is a great musician, her version of this amazing song by Cy Coleman is incredible.
I'm so glad to see that she did these songs. I love her so much; she has such a great talent. And Cy Coleman was a great man- very funny and kind and talented, and I was happy when he joined our family. He is greatly missed by his family and friends, and it's wonderful to hear Fiona's beautiful voice doing honor to his songs.
"My Funny Valentine", "You Don't Know What Love Is", "Someone To Watch Over Me",
Just a few of the songs, that are anxiously waiting for her beautiful voice and talent for jazz.
this song is basically getting me through life right now.
the best is yet to come :)
yeah
Amen.
Me too friend, me too.
I’m feeling your pain too! An artist with a beautiful mind hasn’t texted me in two weeks and I’m perplexed 🧐
They had a video of this with a woman dancing underwater but it's been deleted! It really was a fantastic video and so well choreographed.
Are you sure that was her?
Absolutely love his cover, and Why Try to Change Me Now. So emotionally charged, beautiful, and from the heart. Makes you want to cry, rail, dance, and dream.

Love her voice love this song such talent she has
The best thing about TH-cam is that every new generation of mature music-listeners will get to discover Fiona.
It's really amazing... I just turned 18 and have been listening to her for the past two years. Finding those who were once my age commenting on her masterpieces of songs years and years ago really makes me feel in awe
Maravilhosa. Ouvir Fiona apple cantar é um privilégio.
Im 14 and people find it odd that I like her. Her music is just something else. Very nice!
an Apple a day keeps the bad music away!
BRILLIANT 😂😂😂
Good one she's the best
awww :) the nicest thing ever is to sit by the window on a rainy afternoon listening to Fiona's voice and drinking tea...

Pretending that we'll meet
Each time I turn a corner, I walk a little faster
Pretending life is sweet
'Cause love's around the corner, I walk a little faster
Can't begin to see my future shine as yet
No sign as yet, you're mine as yet
Rushing to a face I can't define as yet
Keep bumping into walls and taking lots of falls
And even though I meet 'round each and every corner
With nothing but disaster
I set my chin a little higher, I hope a little longer
Build a little stronger castle in the air
And thinking you'll be there, I walk a little faster
Can't begin to see my future shine as yet
No sign as yet, you're mine as yet
Rushing to a face I can't define as yet
Keep bumping into walls and taking lots of falls
And even though I meet 'round each and every corner
With nothing but disaster
I set my chin a little higher and I hope a little longer
I build a little stronger castle in the air
And thinking you'll be there, I walk a little faster
When you catch but a glimpse yet he continues to give you signs, what else to do but walk a little faster...
I feel so young listening to this. Anyone else 14? I love her music, its so jazzy and beautiful. Definitely one of my new favourite artists.
Her lovely angelic voice goes so well with her song's melancholic tone, i
What a beautiful voices for this song! I too can hardly wait for her next cd.
stunning song..Love her voice!
pure jazz just beautiful blues
I love her so much!!! such a magical voice and meaningful lyrics
its like she walked inside this song and saw every street and knew just where to go and when to just pause and start again and was able to nail every note and wring every iota of meloncholy out of this wonderful work of art, her extraordinary instincts told her when to walk a little faster
She's such a great artist... I love you Fiona!
Beautiful song and voice.
This is what I'm talking about. Smooth as honey, can't get any smoother than this. LOVE IT! Thanks for posting this up :)

OK this is just fucking great. it's 7:21 on my birthday and I'm on my first cup of coffee. this just made my day.
You rock, Fiona ... love ya !!!!!!!
I heard the song in the movie Le premier jour du reste de ta vie. The song is so beautiful.
Gr8 song!!!! If the legendary Les Paul were 2 accompany her (RIP, Les) w/ his fabulous guitar playing, I'm sure he'd be all over this adding flavors such as a painter would add color!!!! I LOVE Fiona, (She is in a class all her own!!!!)her music & really appreciate the ABSOLUTELY STUNNING/GORGEOUS PHOTOS!!!! ;-) Thanx!!!!
merci pour toute cette sensiblité magnifique!
love her voice it is so beautiful
Leave it to Fiona to cover Tony Bennett. She is such a beautifully tortured soul that makes the most out of her emotions through her art. I love her.
This is from a tribute album of Cy Coleman songs. Tony Bennett's version is probably the most popular, but it was first sung by Blossom Dearie.
Fiona has two songs on the cover album (this and "Why Try to Change Me Now"), but there's many other good recordings on the album from other artists.
Also, Fiona's sister is a cabaret singer, so it always seemed fitting for Fiona to sing some jazz songs eventually, especially with her voice.
@@kruks thanks for the clarification, and the extra info.
She's phenomenal!
No, that’s Blossom Dearies
great voice!!!
MAGICAL MISTERY FIONA !!!! This Beatles title would be very much proud of you. COME ON LITTLE CHILD AND SING THIS SONG A THOUSAND OF TIMES FOR US !!!!!

22. IV 2015 - my song of the day

i love it
wonderfull song! R/H.
Sweet Beautiful Fiona😍😍😍
I can feel again!
Sounds a lot like “why try and change me now”--which is also a fabulous song!
@fryzor September 2011 I heard she's releasing her new album! Whoop!
damn i love her
she's so cool
"Pero aunque no encontrara a la vuelta de cada esquina nada salvo un desastre,
levantaré un poco más mi barbilla
esperaré un poco más
construiré un poco más fuerte, un castillo en el aire
y pensando que estarás allí...
caminaré un poco más rápido"
Nice........
@carolfaim1 NO. I think it's on the Howard Stern interview where she says she doesn't want one.
I almost feel ashamed of only finding out about her a year ago. I didn't think it possible for me to love a musician so much.
She has beautiful eyes.
MegaWhiner she has beautiful...EVERYTHING
