about

The holidays are so emotionally charged and yet, we mostly only exalt the season, leaving those who struggle with it, feeling alone and misunderstood. I wanted to embrace the many moods of the winter, and that meant that this song had to be included. I also love the origins of it, which are as strange, as they are remarkable.

Who would have thought that a song as hauntingly beautiful as this would harken to a Mr. Magoo cartoon? That's right; this song appeared in the 1962 original release of "Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol", though it was often cut from subsequent airings. The song is sung by Belle, the love interest of the young Scrooge (Magoo), as she reflects on how his love waned, as he prioritized his work over their relationship.

The song has the feel of a traditional Broadway ballad thanks to composer Jule Styne and lyricist Bob Merrill. Styne's other contribution to my "Winter Was Warm" song collection is in the WW2 era ballad "I'll Walk Alone", the 6th song on this concept album.

As a performer of vintage music, I like to take people on a joyful time-traveling journey. As you’re listening, I hope you’ll feel like you’ve been transported to the past - - maybe it’s a swank Supper Club in Manhattan, an intimate Parisian Cabaret, an elegant London Ballroom, or to Hollywood’s Golden Age - - or maybe you’ll just drift on the music, back to your own memories. ... more
