Al Jolson, Are you lonesome tonight? (1927).

Copied by that young feller, um, Mr Presley.

The saddest song I know, Kermit's Rainbow Connection.

Yep, you got me to go grab the Elvis CD. "Are You Lonesome Tonight?"

Grab the Jolson track, it's better than the King.

I cried like a baby when I saw a clip of Henson's memorial where they sang that.

Lil

What makes the song so sad is that it is the song of someone disillusioned with love, but it is treated as a happy song.

"is this the sweet song which called the young sailers" is an obvious reference to the Sirens and the Lorelei who lured seamen to their destruction on the shoals.

"Rainbows are visions, but only illusions"

"Have you been half asleep and have you heard voices.."


It is a lovely piece of melancholy, a little like Puddle of Mudd's "She Fucking Hates Me". If you've not heard this one, it's addictive.

Ben Taylor (son of James and Carly Simon), Another Run Around the Sun

Good stuff!

I've heard both. I love Kenny Loggins' version of Rainbow Connection. BTW most honorable #1 son was almost names Lorelei Lee.
