Patti Page – Changing Partners
Succesul Artistei Patti Page la inceputul erei rock and rol se datoareaza si faptului ca in cantecele pop a introdus elemente de stil specifice genului country.
Versiunea cantaretei Patti Page a piesei “Changing partners” este cea mai cunoscuta desi in acelasi an, 1953, alti 3 artisti de top Dinah Shore, Kay Starr si Bing Crosby realizau inregistrari ale aceleiasi piese.
We were waltzin’ together to a dreamy melody
When they called out “Change partners”
And you waltzed away from me
Now my arms feel so empty as I gaze around the floor
And I’ll keep on changing partners
Till I hold you once more
Though we danced for one moment and too soon we had to part
In that wonderful moment somethin’ happened to my heart
So I’ll keep changing partners till you’re in my arms and then
Oh, my darlin’ I will never change partners again
Though we danced for one moment and too soon we had to part
In that wonderful moment somethin’ happened to my heart
So I’ll keep changing partners till you’re in my arms and then
Oh, my darlin’ I will never change partners again
Patti Page – How Much Is That Doggie In The Window
Patti Page (Clara Ann Fowler) este una din putinii artisti de muzica pop care au avut succes in a doua jumatate a anilor 1950, cand rock and roll-ul era cel mai popular stil de muzica. De asemenea Patti Page este cantareata (femeia) cu cele mai mari vanzari a anilor 1950. “(How much is the) doggie in the window” a fost lansat in decembrie 1952, ajungand in anul urmator pe primul loc in topurile americane, iar un cover al acestei piese, in interpretarea solistei Liza Rita, ocupa aceeasi pozitie in clasamentele muzicale din Marea Britanie in 1953. Patti Page – o voce calda, o prezenta fermecatoare, cu o eleganta care ar putea fi luata drept standard.
Melodia este foarte frumos impodobita, pe langa latratul eroului principal ar mai fi de remarcat cum a fost decorat fiecare sfarsit de vers al ultimei strofe, pentru fiecare animal sunetul fiind altul.
How much is that doggie in the window? [Arf, arf]
The one with the waggly tail
How much is that doggie in the window? [Arf, arf]
I do hope that doggie’s for sale
I must take a trip to California
And leave my poor sweet heart alone
If he has a dog he won’t be lonesome
And the doggie will have a good home
How much is that doggie in the window? [Arf, arf]
The one with the waggly tail
How much is that doggie in the window? [Arf, arf]
I do hope that doggie’s for sale
I read in the paper there are robbers [Waf, waf]
With flash lights that shine in the dark
My love needs a doggie to protect him
And scare them away with one bark
I don’t want a bunny or a kitty
I don’t want a parrot that talks
I don’t want a bowl of little fishies
You can’t take a goldfish for a walk
How much is that doggie in the window? [Arf, arf]
The one with the waggly tail
How much is that doggie in the window? [Arf, arf]
I do hope that doggie’s for sale
Patti Page – The Tennessee Waltz
I was dancin’ with my darlin’
To the Tennessee Waltz
When an old friend I happened to see
I introduced her to my loved one,
And while they were dancing,
My friend stole my sweetheart from me
I remember the night,
And the Tennessee Waltz
Now I know just how much I have lost
Yes, I lost my little darlin’
The night they were playing
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
I was dancin’ with my darlin’
To the Tennessee Waltz
When an old friend I happened to see
I introduced her to my loved one,
And while they were dancing,
My friend stole my sweetheart from me
I remember the night,
And the Tennessee Waltz
Now I know just how much I have lost
Yes, I lost my little darlin’
The night they were playing
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
