Ray Charles - Stella By Starlight Lyrics






The song a robin sings
Through years of endless springs
The murmur of a brook at even tide
That ripples by a nook where two lovers hide

A great symphonic theme
That's Stella by starlight and not a dream
Mmm, my heart and I agree
She's everything on Earth to me

(The murmur of a brook at even tide)
(That ripples by a nook where two lovers hide)

A great symphonic theme
That's Stella by starlight and not a dream
Oh, my heart and I agree
She's everything on Earth to me (on Earth to me)

  18. J.... D....

    The song a robin sings,
    Through years of endless springs,
    The murmur of a brook at evening tides.
    That ripples through a nook where two lovers hide.

    That great symphonic theme,
    That's Stella by starlight,
    And not a dream,
    My heart and I agree,
    She's everything on this earth to me.

    Sound track is the BEST

  20. L.... S....

    Shouldn't try this song,

  21. L.... S....

    NO SINGING VOICE.

  22. E.... T....

    Isso que é música curti muito saudades.

  23. C.... C....

    OHHHHH YEA MR KRABS

  24. J.... T....

    This song was going along nicely until somebody whacked me in the back of the head with a baseball bat.

  25. Z.... ....

    angelic blend of voices at the end

  26. L.... S....

    Simply, a song that will last forever in my soul

  27. P.... M....

    Some songs were meant for certain singers to sing. Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennet Ray Charles, etc. They could take any song and turn it into a masterpiece with their insight and sensitivity. Love them all for teaching us about love, and music.

  28. M.... C....

    Does someone know why the lyrics at the final part of the music are different in the version Ella Fitzgerald sings?
    Charles and Sinatra version: My heart and I aggree she´s everything on earth to me.
    Ella's version: She's all of these and more, she's everything that you'd adore

    Also there is a final extra- part in Ell's version: Have you seen Stella by starlight with moon in her hair, That's Stella by starlight raptures so rare.

    Any comment about? Thanks.

    M.... C....

    One possibility, Ella didn't want to have people speculating that she was a lesbian. So she changed it. There is nothing worse or better about sexuality differences, of course, but that would be an obvious reason, to consider changing. 
    There are other things even more important to think about in the music.
    Be sure to listen to Sarah Laugh, and then Mile Davis' incredible variations on this. 
    Others will have good recommendations as well.

  29. M.... ....

    Jeez, but Ray could mine any kind of music and shine a light on it with his own style. I've never heard this song done any better. The smooth background chorus singers against Ray's rough grace is sublime.

    M.... ....

    The man was a stylist! Willie Nelson is another.

  30. p.... ....

    I first heard this song in the movie Casino. Of course, Ray rocks it.

  31. S.... D....

    A song like this makes you feel.....ALIVE!

  32. s.... l....

    irretocavel, mais uma grande interpretação de ray charles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    楽しいですね~ グレンミラーも好きです==

  34. R.... S....

    Estas canções como as chamavamos na década de 60, mexe por dentro de meu peito e lentamente sobe ao célebro colando na alma. Uma prazerosa nostalgia domina o coração, lacrimejando... meus olhos.

    Divine! Thanks for this recording! What a classy performance!

    E o tempo que não volta! Que saudade! Quem me dera pudesse fazer o tempo voltar.

  36. R.... F....

    Ray's rough, soulful vocals juxtaposed with this lush arrangement is just fantastic.

  37. A.... A....

    linda música , composta para um filme.,que não vi.É uma pena;

  38. C.... R....

    This is not Ray Charles, but Frank Sinatra... GD

    C.... R....

  39. w.... K....

    would could bring this back!!!!

  40. M.... S....

    Casino... Great scene,

    M.... S....

    It is true! It is an unforgettable scene! It is a scene that is a statement of Scorsese's love for Sharon Stone. Sharon deserved Oscar for this film!

    M.... S....

    +Ricardo Campello true that

    M.... S....

    severely reductive for the song

  41. N.... H....

    Meu primeiro beijo !!!!..Ao som dessa fera e dessa maravilhosa música

    N.... H....

    que inveja

    N.... H....

    +Filipe Diogo Com certeza, tudo muito lindo!!.. ♥

  42. H.... M....

    Credit the tender lyric to Ned Washington who also wrote "When You Wish Upon a Star" and
    "The Nearness of You."

    H.... M....

    And whose background was circus announcer and carnival crier - great training for a jazz lyricist, it seems.

  43. A.... M....

    A song a robin sings through years of endless springs a murmur of a brook at even tide that ripples by a nook where two lovers hide. A great symphonic theme that's Stella by starlight and not a dream. Oh, my heart and I agree. She's everything on earth to me. ...

  53. W.... G....

    would love to hear Ray on his piano without all the overproduction...

    W.... G....

    thanks for the laugh...yes, it is horrible..but...Ray is in there!!

    W.... G....

    @W. Gaw ha. i aims to troll, i mean, i aims to please. glad you enjoyed my rant.
    and yes, Ray's singing here is SUBLIME, which makes it even more painful for me somehow. 

    W.... G....

    ...the thing is, we don't get any more Ray, so I  try to get past all the shite...can you imagine him in some little joint somewhere just jammin' away in the wee hours...Brilliant!

    W.... G....

    aw but i just listened to it again damn they sure f****** that up!

    W.... G....

    I would call it sugar syrup. Or maybe pancake syrup made with artificial sweetener.

  54. K.... A....

    Anyone know the song that's playing when the guys are shooting up the cop's house after they killed the guy with the sandwich in his hand?

    the one who makes me happy my wife ginger

  56. p.... l....

    Top dos mais vendidos discos em 63, Ray emplacou vários sucessos no Brasil,

  57. J.... O....

    Ray Charles singers, hand picked by Ray nice compliment to his bluesy voice.

  58. E.... ....

    Me too, and I fell in love with this song.

  59. R.... Z....

    Oh, this is sublime. I could listen to this all day. Actually, I think I will. XD

  60. L.... J....

    Or Casino, lol. (Sorry for the million posts and typos, but I'm just getting the hang of my my new iPad3.) Thank you, thank you, thank you, For uploading this version. It is genuinely difficult to put into words how I feel about this exquisite version of this gorgeous song.

  61. L.... J....

    So you win the title of,first person I ever thank for an upload. I'm only 33 but have a passion for the standards and but even I was surprised how much this version gripped me while watching the movie vasino

  62. L.... J....

    Anyway, as I was saying while Sinatra and Fitzgeralds both her flawless versions of this standard I long ago fell in love with Ray Charles' this version. This is one of a few songs I would gladly cough up a buck 50 to pay for on iTunes but they don't have it

  63. L.... J....

    Crap. Don't try to comment at 4 am after a few glasses of

  64. L.... J....

    This is one of the few songs I would go out of my way to purchase. Ella is my favorite vocalist of all time and while Sinatra isn't one of my favs (he was incredibly talented but lacks emotiona lot of the time for my taste his version of this song is impeccable.'andneasily claimsmthemtitlem

  65. w.... m....

    Yes, it is one of the most popular standards, but vocal versions seem to be outweighed by instrumental versions. This is my favourite vocal version, although I would love to hear a mix without the strings and backing vocals. Ray's voice is not as 'mannered' as some of the other vocal versions I have heard.

  66. F.... A....

    First heard this song in "Casino" when Ginger is working the room.

    F.... A....

    She could be the most charming person you ever met.

    F.... A....

    Francisco Aguilar yes very charming. She knows how to work the room
