Fitzgerald, Ella - I Can't Get Started Lyrics

Sookie brought me here.

I've been around the world in a plane
Settled revolutions in Spain
The North Pole I have charted
But can't get started with you
And at the golf course I'm under par
Metro-Goldwyn wants me to star
I've got a house and a show place
But can't get no place with you

You're so supreme
The lyrics I write of you
Dream, dream, day and night of you
Scheme just for the sight of you
Baby but what good does it do?
I've been consulted by Franklin D.
Robert Taylor has had me to tea
But now I'm broken-hearted
Can't get started with you

When first…

Rimsky-Korsakov taught Sergei Tanayev who taught Reinhold Gliere who taught Vernon Duke who moved to the USA and wrote the music to this.

MARAVILHOSA!!!!!!

This song melts my heart it’s so beautiful

Ada Tessie Srimulat

Excellent version,but that trumpet at 2:00 takes it to a whole new realm.Song written by Vernon Duke and Ira Gershwin.12 on a scale of 1 to 10.

Gilmore girls❤

Listened to few Ella's songs but yeah i'm here becoz of Gilmore girls too.

Avengers Endgame brought me here

Mr.Gallagan brought me here.

Linda música que me foi apresentada por garotas Gilmore.

I've flown around the world in a plane
I've settled revolutions in Spain
The North Pole I have charted, but I can't get
Started with you

Around the golf course I'm under par
And all the movies want me to star
I've got a house, a show place, but I get no
Place with you

You're so supreme, lyrics I write of you
Scheme, just for a sight of you
Dream, both day and night of you
And what good does it do?

In 1929 I sold short
In England I'm presented at court
But you've got me downhearted, cause I can't get
Started with you

You're so supreme, lyrics I write of you
Scheme, just for a sight of you
Dream, both day and night of you
And what good does it do?

Ella’s voice is wonderful, but this version is too slow. I prefer Billie’s rendition.

Fantastic words.

Always so classy and smooth.

Gilmore girls ♡

I've flown around the world in a plane
I've settled revolutions in Spain
The North Pole I have charted
But can't get started with you

Around the golf course I'm under par
And all the movies want me to star
I've got a house, a show place
But I get no place with you

You're so supreme, lyrics I write of you
Scheme, just for a sight of you
Dream, both day and night of you
And what good does it do?

In 1929 I sold short
In England I'm presented at court
But you've got me downhearted
'Cause I can't get started with you

You're so supreme, lyrics I write of you
Scheme, just for a sight of you
Dream, both day and night of you
And what good does it do?

In 1929 I sold short
In England I'm presented at court
But you've got me downhearted
'Cause I can't get started with you

Thank you Fernanda for posting the lyrics.... it always makes the song more enjoyable to listen to and sing along with!

Here from Gilmore girls , season 2 episode 1 “ I can’t get started “ - the perfect perfect song for this episode. Love the way they had the girls walking towards sookie’s wedding to this.

I came here from... uh .... shaving.

what genre would yall call this

It's pop but from what's called "The Great American Songbook."

wow, what a great voice!

Ella and Nelson=a match made in heaven

OH YEAH, , ,

I absolutely love when a tv show can bring people to look up the music. So many people are quick to judge that they're only listening because of the show, but I think it's amazing. I'm so grateful for all of the shows I've watched that have introduced me to great music I wouldn't have otherwise heard

Beanie Ann I agree! 💖

Another Gilmore Girls episode redirect here too - that episode 22 of season 2.

Me. too!

Gilmore Girls brought me to this❤️ Favorite song and episode❤️

I also found this song with Gilmore Girls season 2 episode 22

SAMEEEE

SAMMMMEE!!! Best episode ever💕

Yep, Sookie brought me here. Gilmore girls only have great songs!

me too!

Lilly Yon dead was about to comment that.

Wow! Number one lady.

Ella is stunning, but make no mistake, Nelson Riddle's amazingly groovy touch elevates the whole experience :-)

When I was fifteen I fell in love for the first time with a classmate of mine and the title of this song was my problem.  I could not get started as I did not know what to do with such feelings.  Good song.  Nice to hear.

Jorge Mario Rodas, same, I was 14. I'm still in love with her.

Gilmore girls brought me here I wasn't meant for this time.... this is so beautiful

Same🤗

Kristina Shiber sameeeee ❤️❤️❤️

Kristina Shiber wow Oh mein Gott me too

Ella rules!

This, my favorite. So divine.

Aaah! I just love her voice!

A WONDERFUL MIRACULOUS VOICE -

This is my favorite version of one of my favorite nostalgic standards
