THE GREAT AMERICAN SONGBOOK

COLE PORTER

PARIS

IRENE BORDONI: “DON’T LOOK AT ME THAT WAY”

This is the star of “Paris” singing her song from the musical with the backing of Irving Aaronson & His Commanders. It’s from 1928, and her French accent was very real. Note her operatic approach to singing, normal for an era when Broadway shows didn’t use hidden microphones for amplification. Once the song gets going, it’s pure Twenties dance band. You could imagine this on the soundtrack of “Boardwalk Empire.”

Howdy, LUV!

It was good enough evening. A friend showed up we hadn’t seen in a little while and that added a bit of fun to it.

Now catching up on the day’s news. Looks like a lot has been going on.

Was it a busy day at work to help the time go by quickly?
