Nat King Cole - When Sunny Gets Blue Lyrics

Sunny really get blue if cannot find anyone to compare to NAT .!!!!!!@

A voice of pure silk.

One of my all time favorite albums. When I was a little girl, I used to try to imitate Nat King Cole's smooth as silk voice..."What does it matter if you're rich or your poor......Love is Thing" Gorgeous lyrics

The best l have heard.

My mom used to sing this to me at bedtime. Now I sing it for my own son <3

Why aren’t there millions of views? 😕

This was one of the "aphrodisiac songs" that Johnny Mathis recorded when I was in high school ('60-'63), but I have to say that I prefer "The King's" version much more. No one, that I know of, has had a voice or his stylings to match since he passed. Thanks, and RIP, Nat.

If you love this song, then you believe in love. I first heard Nat's version of "When Sunny Gets Blue" on an ordinary afternoon in 1967 when I was 12 years old. It has always stayed with me. It's perfect.

Par Excellence ! The strings ! Nat King Cole . The Song !!!.... The arranger,

Nat King Cole.....Part of America's Song Book......For the ages.........

Heavens to Murgatroid !   What a wonderfully lush version of a truly classic tune !   Nat is exquisite as always !  THANK YOU so much for uploading this marvelous "blast from the past" for us to enjoy !   CHEERS !!     :-)

Timeless , Perfection..............the late,
Mr.Nat King Cole 💖❤🎵🎼🎤🎶

Obviously I LOVE this song!
~~Sunny Reed

A friend of mine used to say: Nat´s pronunciation is SO clear that even if you do not know a word of English, you get to understand everything he is saying.....

Antonio Silva That's so cool

There was a song By Nat King Cole that I heard once almost 20 years ago "MAYBE IT'S BECAUSE I LOVE YOU TOO MUCH". Thanks to You Tube, I got the title and listened to the song.

What can I say...Nat is where it is at. Unforgettable.

It doesn't get better than this .

perfect

One of the most reassuring voices of all time!

this why they called him the king

Looky here Bippy, there's only one King. Got it?

@Terence Boris ...The media did that.

Compare all of today's digital cut-patch editing, auto-tune and the like with the Capitol all-in-one take with full orchestra and vocalist before LIVE mikes in a single mono mix...Capitol Studios wins EVERY TIME!! Listen to the luscious, full mono track that puts much stereo to shame!

I met Jack Segal at his cousins wedding at the Beverly Hilton la 1992

my favourite version

THAT'S "THE KING FOREVER AND EVER.

"Nat" urally such beautiful listening...easy - any one care to dance close?

Charles Lentz Like what you did with the name!

Quite amazing that this classic from Marvin Fisher and Jack Segal is as good now as when they created it in 1946.
The best music,such as this, never seems to sound outdated.

The king was smooth!

The strings flow like liquid gold...timeless...I've hit Replay several times. Thanks for the post, jazzysclassicjazz

サニーって名前なのか太陽なのか
どちらにしても落ち込むのは良くないさ
明日は明日の風が吹くってさ♪

Something grand to be said also about the arrangement. This, I think, more than any other is the version I remember most. Playing on our record player with the lights turned down. Johnny Mathis "Chances Are"
(He also did a noteworthy cover of this song) . Nat was a top recording artist and was given the best musicians to play, arrange and compose. Listen to the strings (for example) on the 2nd verse, where he says "winds that set the trees to swaying". That shows creativity and use of the instruments beyong notes and rhythem. The engineers and producers really showed thear craft and made this song one that has stood up for so many years as the standard. Now Kenny Rankin does an amazing takeoff (also a favorite) in his jazz rendition, but you have to know the original to see and appreciate where he takes lisence with the music

+nakedhombre7 Thanks for the K. Rankin props. I also like Mel Torme's version. Spare (it's just self-accompanied on piano), but he was an expressive vocalist. I get on a kick for this song and 'Round Midnight every so often and I'm amazed at what people are able to do with these two tunes.

um Johnny Mathis didn't cover it He was the ORIGINAL recording, Nat came after only by a few months or so tho

nakedhombre7 This is my favorite Nat KC album. The orchestration behind the voice is perfect.

isso é musica de qualidade, maravilhoso.

Beautiful..easy... every word understood. Nat was a master...thank you  

Grown folks pop music

Why do artists like this one have to die so young?    Why?    When I think of the shitty people padding around the Earth, walking between the raindrops, living forever, and this guy, and Otis, and Buddy, and Jimi, and Freddie, and Jim, Randy, Valens, Janis, Keith, and Eddie, and Whitney, and Amy, Lennon, Sadat, Belushi, ......

@shuroom57 Only the good die young. Maybe the kind of beauty they brought, shared and left here was needed somewhere else.

Sunny is a pegasus. :P

BEAUTIFUL....Thanks for posting this lovely share.

My pleasure Maureen! ♫♫ ʝαʑ ♫♫

Each and Every word completely distinct and understandable - Not like too much of today's music - Just a great talent and very hard to believe that he has been gone just about 50 years now.  They just don't make them like the Great Nat King Cole anymore.  We may never ever see the likes of him again.

One of the greatest!

This song is so very special to me. My mother sang it to me from the time I was born until her last day with me. I have carried on the tradition with my 3 daughters. It is part of my soul and I pray they will rock and sing to their children as well.

Thank you jazz, bless you, nice to here again just bought the cd of Nats  "Love Is The Thing"  I think was his best album

My Pleasure!  You purchased a gem :)  jaz

Blu and exile made me look this beautiful song up :)

72 here. been lovin' NKC since my 20s.

I started listening to jazz and really appreciating it when I was about 18. Played guitar in the High School Jazz Band.

Is there anyone, anything in today's throw away society that can compare with these classics? This was a from a slower time in our lives, people cared about each other etc etc., thank you for this great music to take us back.

MERAVIGLIOSO .....

Hey, I'm quite interested, what age group of people like this kind of music?

jacob cummings all ages 💟🎶🎵

muito bom

thumbs up if blu sent you here?

Very Nice！

plain sweet and just Nat. really like this song!

Don't make them or sing them like this anymore. Lyrics, melody, diction,par excellence

Every graceful song is this!

Personally more a fan of the Johnny Mathis version. Quite a bit more smooth. But NKC killed it as well.

We just started playing this in my jazz band. Such a beautiful song tho!

this was my father's favorite song on his favorite album. thank you, more than words can say for sharing it.
it brought my lovely father back to me......

Kathy Kutler So glad you enjoyed 😊

A FAVORITE! LOVE IT!

Now this is music! Do you hear those violins!? YES! Its as if people have forgotten that most of the orchestra exists. And Nat, my god, If ive ever heard another voice as smooth as his, Ill eat my hat!

Well said and well put ! I could not agree more !

Blu and Exile

ok... Frank Ifield for me!

Johnny Mathis also did this song. My parents both had wedding bands in the late 60's and 70's, and they played this tune. I whistle it still after all these years.

@TOMBANCROFT Thank You so much Tom for sharing! Appreciate your research :)))

@jazzysclassicjazz Further investigation reveals that this song was recorded by Capitol in December 1956 and it was recorded on mono as well as three track stereo. Perhaps this could account for the two different versions which exist. This version is of course the three track stereo one.

TOMBANCROFT Thank You 🌷 💟 for all the great information

Somewhere out there is a recording of this song with a simpler backing. This version with the beautiful string arrangement by Gordon Jenkins is the most popular. It is possible that the earlier one was an out-take from one of his TV shows, which are ofetn found on cut price compilations.

@TOMBANCROFT You have an great ear to detect this...Is the one you are familiar with on yt?

I have a version on a budget label compilation album released here in the UK. I have dug the album out and played the track for the first time in years. It sounds really different from the version on "Love Is The Thing" album (which was stereo). It is a mono recording and listening closely, it seems to be slightly speeded up. I now think it is the same version which was recorded in 1956, but it has been doctored and sounds older.

@TOMBANCROFT Do you know what album that is from? Was it with the King Cole Trio?

This was the second version of this recorded by Nat. His first version was recorded in his younger days. Both are superb.

@3muimui ;o) My pleasure

Glad to find back this beautiful song again! Thank you Carmen!

3muimui My Pleasure 😋🎶🎼💟🌷😊
