Pausing creates silence, silence creates anticipation, and anticipation is the ultimate aphrodisiac.

Wow. I guess when you sound great from the jump and are this much in love this is what can happen....

hi chewy-chew-chew here to lend a helping hand in declaring that peggy lee is one ripe tomato!!!!!!!! that record is that all there is-- is that tragic story true and really happened, or is it just part of the song. her early 78s are good too but what really gets me is that latin a la lee and the later stuff

It's a Lieber & Stoller song, that much I do know. Go figure that.

Peggy really related to the mood and the feel of that song, but I don't think it was for any personal historical reasons. I don't think that the songwriters were writing real incidents either.

I think Peggy is one of the very best American singers there was.

No, but "The Saga of Jenny" is all true.

Very nice indeed. I liked the pianist, too. Wonder who he was. Sounded a bit like Nat Cole.

My favourite Peggy Lee is "If you go", from about 1961, very intimately arranged by Quincy Jones. She does some unusual songs.
