Cole, Nat King - Mona Lisa Lyrics






Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa, men have named you
You're so like the lady with the mystic smile
Is it only 'cause you're lonely they have blamed you?
For that Mona Lisa strangeness in your smile?

Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there

Are you warm, are you real, Mona Lisa?
Or just a cold and lonely lovely work of art?

Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there

Are you warm, are you real, Mona Lisa?
Or just a cold and lonely lovely work of art?

Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa

    Voz magnifica e inconfundível uma dádiva para quem as ouve. Com certeza inspirada pelos anjos de Deus. Vão-se os cantores mas suas obram ficam, e continuam aveludar e imortalizar-se pelos ouvidos nas almas de quem as ouvem, porque são obras de arte, que ajudam a enxergar a vida de outra forma.

  11. D.... M....

    The ridiculous stink of racism was so bad then, that this wonderful performer was slathered in that awful-looking makeup to lighten him up....to make him more "accceptable" to racist assholes.

    Amazing tone. I’m so fortunate to have had parents that played records like his as I grew up. Thanks for sharing.

  28. w.... w....

    What a great voice and sung simply at the piano.....now every male black singer needs all the help of a recording studio assuming that is that they can really sing.

    Mom had several of NKC's albums. She'd play them during Bridge Club. I set the tables, served, cleared, put another 4 albums on the Hi-Fi Stereo which was an important piece in the room. There were nick-nacks to be dusted & all. Thanks Mom. Love you.

  37. J.... M....

    My stage name 🤣 R.IP Silver blue lakes.

  38. J.... M....

    Everything in life has meaning just a few stuck in a trin with no meaning in their life if they are delusional. Only people who can relate to old or new music will appreciate all life old or new. It's all about understanding. 🙏

  39. J.... A....

    Idk how tf i got here but his his FACE IS SO DAMN UGLY WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH IT. UGGGH

  40. B.... D....

    He looks like he had a facelift before facelifts were available

    인생은 아름다워

  51. J.... D....

    Such style and class.

  52. B.... P....

    My sister was named for this song, I am 10 years older than her. I would rock her and sing to her. When she started Kindergarten she got kicked out for fighting...she had told the kids she had a song written for her and they didn't believe her....she has always believed everything I've told her...her 2nd Momma. Thank you Mr. Cole for singing this for her, as no one else can top you, it will always be one of my very favorites.

  53. J.... S....

    This is the most beautiful version of the song ever. Nat King Cole was an amazing talent and his talent got passed down to his equally talented daughter. God rest their beautiful souls. Thank you for your musical legacy.

  54. G.... K....

    Krasotkata :)

    G.... K....

    P.S: Have a good one!

  62. S.... G....

  63. E.... R....

    The US was ridiculous, you realize he painted his face with rice powder, so that the white elite would feel good, embarrassed by the country.

  64. c.... ....

    Great song.

  65. D.... a....

    Who played the lovely riffs on guitar? If possible in trios to quintet the other artists should be identified?!

  66. h.... t....

    Beyond and forever remembered...

  67. C.... C....

    that warms my soul

  68. M.... L....

    Velvet Voice should be his nickname :')

  69. Z.... A....

    Whos the Guitarist? I Googled and In surprised even nat himself isn't credited enough for making the song a hit

  70. J.... G....

  71. J.... S....

    That guitar boy oh boy!!!

    Nat Cole wanted to bring out the huskiness in his voice, so he would chain smoke cigarettes before a recording session. It worked! This video is from the early 1950s. If you compare it to his recordings from the late 50's and early 60's, you'll notice the difference. Yes, his vocal quality improved, but at a terrible cost. He died of cancer at a very young age though he was still recording, making movies and TV appearances. It must have been frightening to be a singer and find out that Cole was going to cover a song that you wanted to cover, because it meant that his cover would become the definitive version. In my opinion, his covers of "Smile", "Mona Lisa", "When I Fall In Love", "The Very Thought Of You", "Stardust", "There Will Never Be Another You", "Love Letters", "Ramblin' Rose", "That's All", "Route 66", " L-O-V-E", "Nature Boy" and of course, "The Christmas Song" are the best covers of all time and Cole owns them. If you're a dude who wants to romance a lady in your apartment, put on some Nat Cole, ask her for a dance, sing along softly with Nat in her ear, and she'll be yours!

  74. D.... C....

    Comme le temps passe

  75. M.... H....

    The VOICE.

  76. k.... T....

    in my humble...the best male voice ever.

  78. R.... A....

    beautiful voice , i like it.

  79. E.... W....

    The indignity this great man had to suffer, putting on makeup just to look more white for the white audience.

    E.... W....

    THAT is what you think of when you hear this GREAT Man sing & play???? Unbelievable

  80. J.... S....

    Tanta maquiagem que o maluco tá até branco, mas canta lindamente...

  81. P.... S....

    I've heard it said he didn't like his voice. If that's true he was the only one.

  82. J.... J....

  92. F.... E....

    It's a shame that such a great singer and Handsome Man had to wear that thick white makeup.

    F.... E....

    Fred Ellis I looked hard to find this comment. Thought I was the only one who noticed.

  93. D.... M....

    He sounds nice for a coloured. lol

    D.... M....

    Draco Malfoy One of the greatest singers ever and you can’t get past his skin color. Talent is Talent. Period.

  94. C.... K....

    And they called him an Uncle Tom, shame, shame on them. Music back then and today has no color, gender or prejudice. Only people do.🧐🧐❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸

  95. P.... A....

    Esa voz y esa musica son unicas en su genero, no hay comparacion. Es por eso que le hace honor a su apellido. (King).

  96. J.... M....

    I remember my lola
