There is a new version, recently released, sung by Hugh Crane.

This is a torch song among torch songs.
On that basis - Julie London. She sings it very well and has that “look”

Ella’s the one!
It’s on her album “Clap Hands, Here Comes Charlie” and easily one of her masterpieces.

This may seem like something from left-field, but Joe Cocker on “Mad Dogs and Englishmen” (Live Tour Album) did a great cover. Leon Russell on the piano. Good Stuff. But as to your question; Julie London for sure.

Johnny B. Boehner is said to sing a good baritone version of that song to the mirror as he shaves. To hear him would leave you absolutely verklempt!

Sorry, Roost. It’s a pun.

I tend to agree. Julie London owns this song.

Definitely Julie London. Krall sounds like a sick calf dying in a thunder shower (as my uncle used to say). Whine-y. Breath-y. Sappy. Just eeeewwww
