Magnífico! Ele sempre tinha a expressão certa para cada canção que interpretava e simplesmente viajamos com ele e sua irretocável voz! Nat pra sempre e sempre...
Great song. I looked it up because I have a video of my Uncle singing it to my Aunt just before he passed away in 1989. Between college and law school, he went to Broadway and was in the musical "Hit the Deck." The song is from that musical, or at least was in that musical in 1930 or so). I have no idea if he sang it, but he had a great voice. In 1935 or so, it was made into a movie with Frank Sinatra and Gene Kelly. Nat King Cole and his trio do a great job with it.
The bassist is Charles P. Harris from Baltimore, Md. (My uncle). He was on the "After Midnight" record. He also played with Hampton's band in the '40's.
Wikipedia said that this song was the first theme song of "The Joey Bishop Show" before they changed it to "Joey." I like it and I thought he had the theme song "Joey" from day one, he didn't.
Sometimes I'm happy, sometimes I'm blue My disposition depends on you I never mind the rain from the sky If I can find the sun in your eyes Sometimes I love you, sometimes I hate you But when I hate you, it's 'cause I love you That's how I am So what can I do? I'm happy when I'm with you Sometimes I'm happy, sometimes I'm blue My disposition depends on you I never mind the rain from the sky If I can find the sun in your eyes Sometimes I love you, sometimes I hate you But when I hate you, it's 'cause I love you That's how I am So what can I do? I'm always happy So very happy Im always happy when I'm with you
the origional song was writen and performed by a man named King Pleasure. i havnt been able to find a version of it on youtube but its easily my favorite take on this song

love this - its lovely to see nat play as well, he was so accomplished - the trio stuff is amazing...
Total Class. ! Nat can't be replaced....and what a piano player he was in addition to being a master vocalist. Thanks for posting.
What a great, great talent. A fantastic jazz piano player and even better vocalist. One of my favorites.
John Collins on guitar ! Glad he was a friend . Very tasty guitarist !
Nat influenced my vocals right up there alongside Ella. For piano, he didn't hit me as hard as Bill Evans.
My ears are melting.
2019 Love
2016 now and yes I'm still listening to this
Awesome!

Help!!! I'm melting!!! Noooo.......
Yeah, I know, but I thought I'd bring it up. Thanks for the advice though!
Joe Comfort (bass) played with Nat Cole in 1950 (My grand uncle). This video is foggy. It's hard to tell. Could be Joe.
Wikipedia is not equal or close to an encyclopedia... careful what you take from there...
HAIR, LOOKS LIKE LAKE MICHIGAN!!!!!!!!!
@WolfEchoes You are SO wrong Wikipedia is 99% correct 100% of the time....according to Wikipedia ;)
Sabbath does a better version I think. Just my opinion.
