JOHNNY MATHIS - 'Misty' (1959)

[media=https://youtu.be/CHz0ry_Nfs4]
There have been a lot of records about being in love over the years, but few of them capture the 'emotional space' the way this one does. There's that soaring voice, the piano, the strings....and then the words which capture the absent-mindedness, the dream-like quality of it all, and something of a sense of wonderment that all this is actually happening!. What can I say? It's a beautiful record 🥰

{@supersnipe] 🤫 there was a cover version of this by ray stevens in 1975 but he did it in a quicker tempo

@smiler2012 Yes, I remember that! Had a violin on it. It was OK but I prefer the original!
