Η “θεϊκή” Sarah Vaughan (1959), οι πολυφωνιστές χωρίς σύνορα The King’s Singers (1991), σε συνεργασία με το μεγάλο George Shearing, και το κουαρτέτο του John Coltrane (1962 – McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garison, Elvin Jones), ξεκινώντας από διαφορετικές αφετηρίες …συγκλίνουν σε κοινή κατεύθυνση, παίρνοντας κι εμάς μαζί τους : Out of this world. Το κομμάτι γράφτηκε από τους Harold Allen, Johnny Mercer, μουσική και στίχοι αντίστοιχα, το 1944. 🔴 🔴 The “Divine” Sarah Vaughan (1959), the borderless polyphonists The King’s Singers (1991) in collaboration with the great George Shearing, and The John Coltrane Quartet (1962 – McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, Elvin Jones), setting out from different starting points… converge in a common direction, taking us along with them: Out of This World. The piece was written by Harold Arlen and Johnny Mercer, music and lyrics respectively, in 1944.



You’re clear out of this world
When I’m looking at you
I hear out of this world
The music that no mortal ever knew
You’re right out of a book
The fairy tale I read when I was five
No armored knight out of a book
was more enchanted by a Loralei then I
After waiting so long
for the right time
After reaching so long for a star
All at once from long and lonely night time
And despite time, here you are
I cry, “Out of this world”
If you said we were through
So let me fly out of this world
And spend the next eternity or two with you
