the best songs ever

[Eric the Green]

If Frank Sinatra is considered the greatest male singer of the 20th century, Barbara Streisand may be considered the best female. I really liked this one from late 1965.





But, it's actually a beautiful remake of a longer 1921 original by Fanny Brice





I wonder how many other great 20s songs I may discover when I get there. I have a list somewhere to look from. Somewhere....

One of the salient features of late 1965-1967 pop was a 1920s style revival. The most famous examples were "Winchester Cathedral" by the New Vaudeville Band, "Tiptoe Through the Tulips" by Tiny Tim, and "Hello, Hello" by Sopwith Camel. Mr. Rudy Vallee pronounced the revival "the greatest thing that ever happened."
