Benson, George - How Do You Keep The Music Playing Lyrics
How do you keep the music playing?
How do you make it last?
How do you keep the song from fading too fast?
How do you lose yourself to someone?
And never lose your ways
And since we're always changing
How can it be the same?
And tell me how year after year
You're sure your heart will fall apart
Each time you hear his name
I know the way I feel for you
It's now or never
The more I love the more that i'm afraid
That in your eyes I may not see forever...
Forever
If we can be the best of lovers
Yet be the best of friends
If we can try with everyday to make it better as it grows
With any luck, then I suppose
The music never ends
I know the way I feel for you
It's now or never!
(How do you keep the music playing?)
The more I love the more that I'm afraid
(How do you make it last)
That in your eyes I may not see forever
Forever
(How do you keep the song from fading, keep the song from
fading too fast)
If we can be the best of lovers
Yet be the best of friends
If we can try with everyday to make it better as it grows
With any luck, then I suppose
The music never ends

Nice.....never heard this version.
60s, 70s; 80s - Writers/Arrangers/Performers: The very best in so many areas of musical expression. My generation had it all; and then...(???) Happy New Year anyway - 1/2019
Oh my, I never tire of listening to this beautiful version of this wonderful song 🎶🎵🎼
I like this version better than James Ingram and Patti Austin.
I'm a big fan of both Legrand (the composer) and Benson, but too much brass to my ear.
+ipa nema IMHO it is hard to imagine any classical jazz theme without any brass ;)
+Theodore Tolstoy if you compare it to the Legrand's original or even Ingram-Austin version, it sounds better.:) Again Imho :) But if we compare for instance to Misty, then the lead theme by sax is amazing.:)
+ipa nema You're right but I suspect you prefer lyrical(R&B) to Jazzy version. I also like Ingram+Austin's performance but I prefer exactly Jazzy version and the brass instruments make it more "spicy".
By the way my favorite Legrand's theme is best(imho) performed by Leslie Kendall:

This is the best version without a doubt...so very beautiful, romantic and sexy.
Thanks. First time I am hearing of Carmen Bradford! Found another icon!
Selon moi la meilleure version EVER de cette chanson!

@mj0037 That is correct. Carmen Bradford is a much slept on singer.
That is not Patti Austin. It is Carmen Bradford.
best version
sing it very nicely, is a wonderful poslouvhat you're the best in the world
i like the sone with james engram better.
@TheLmizelle Is that her now or before, if it is then I never remember her being so thin. but she does look good.
That arrangement blows me out!
The tenor ws my Pop.....
Benson's a great singer but man he sings high.
I am glad we all have our fav but the most popular make or the one that sold the best is mosy likely the best Patti and james are hard to top
the female voice on this track is Carmen Bradford, not Patti Austin. See album "Big Boss Band". George Benson & Count Basie Orchestra
