A tune by fellow Indiana native Cole Porter, performed in a dressing room backstage at the NAC. Sound is not ideal -- couldn't filter out all the HVAC noise.
He continues to amaze me too. And in the dozens of his videos I've watched, no matter how complicated the material, I've never seen him use a chord chart or music. I don't know how he does it.
to me there is a huge difference between people showing on youtube how they play an instrument and then the rare true musicians that really make music - with heart, soul and even whit. just great josh. keep up with your music.
Hi, Josh. My wife & I were in the audience when you performed with Jack Everley, the NAC Pops Orchestra, N'Kenge et. al last month. Frankly, we had never heard of you before but all we could talk about in the car on the way home was your amazing talent. We are now subscribers to your UA-cam channel and huge fans. We hope you come north again sometime very soon. When you do, we'll be in the front row. Please keep the music flowing!
I was also in the audience in Ottawa when you played with the NAC Pops. Your rendition of "Graceland" was simply amazing. I have now subscribed to your channel and love whenever you upload new songs. Please come back to Ottawa!
Josh, the diversity of your talent is beyond amazing. I love your voice, Perfect every time. Love your originality, and your playing of the strings continually brings enjoyment and pleasure to my listening ears~ How does it get better than this? THANK YOU for sharing your talent with us ~
This arrangement is great. Just sat and learned it from the video. Not easy to play flawlessly from start to finish whilst singing along. Unbelievable talent.
Josh plays blues, rock, country, and even classical music. Plays 25 instruments, even writes his own songs and collaborates with also talented friends. Jesus what a life man, I wish you all the best! Found you when I was in highschool serendipitous, I'm graduated UNI now, and still listening to you!
Is there nothing you can't do? It occurred to me that almost all I have heard so far have been covers but you make them so much your own and do them such justice (and then some!!) that I am almost forgetting the originals. Thank you very much. I need to get back to work.
How fun to have your Ottawa Canada dressing room as your setting for this song. Big congrats on being asked to come back and sing the FM Pops All around the U.S. And Canada! We will be there for all of them I'm sure👏
The thing that you "get" that so few musicians seem to these days is the love of the music itself. I always get the sense that you'd play this song for fun, whether or not you had an audience. Don't ever lose that, man. Always a delight to hear you play.
I just cant get enough!! Another incredible performance Josh. you have a wonderful gift and I'm so grateful that I get to share in the watching and listening pleasure of your videos...
I sat down today and closely studied this arrangement for a hour or so. I have memorized 58 seconds thus far. I love this arrangement and I am determined to learn it all. Thanks for the awesome music Josh!
+Matheus Amorim Hey man, I took some time to tab out how I play it. Remember, this is how I worked it out so it may not be the exact same as josh but hey, that's the beauty of music. The first three chords are plucked one string at a time but I tabbed it as a stacked chord to save room. You repeat from the 65578 chord in stave 2 to get you up to around 55 seconds. www.guitartabcreator.com/tabs/whac/lets-do-it-lets-fall-love Good luck!
One of my friends sent me your Facebook page completely out of the blue today, and I was skeptical (as I always am with musical recommendations). This was the first song I listened to, and it convinced me. You are a fantastic musician, and you've just gained a fan!
I hate and love you at the same time. I hate you because I have been playing twice as long as you've been alive,and you're so much better than me. and I love for keeping these great old songs alive by showing them to generations that other wise wouldn't be aware of them. Beautifully done!
I do love listening to every song, every piece of music you post here. My evenings aren't fulfilled enough if your music isn't in the background of my late day life. Thank you so much for making something absolutely stunning and beautiful. Xx
Dude, I love this song! I listen to Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong's version all the time! This lived up to it! I love everything you do! I can't believe how you never get old! You don't use any gimmicks, quirkiness, or a repetitive style, you just play. I love that!
Well, just another reason to smile today. And thank you, now I can not get the song out of my head. If I can't sleep to night we know who's fault it is, lol Keep the songs comming
Sturmbannführer Toht Well i grew up here and I will always love it here, but the way too expensive real estate and the fact that the Chinese have overtaken the place
the whole time im watching this im shaking my head...in amazement. you're one talented artist. im putting you up there with my LEGEND list...james Taylor, Eric clapton, yes...Josh is there too!
Just watched some of your videos - what a complete guitarist /singer / musician you are ! Glad I found your channel. Thanks for the music and the smiles it brings. Bravo !
This was exactly what cole porter was trying to capture. A lot of people resist performing this with lewed inflections. However thats what this was- the front cover playboy content of the 1910s AKA Burlesque.
Great as usual! Love swing and the jazz standards and you do them so well. Anytime someone starts saying how there aren't any young people doing good music out there I point them to you.
I'm seriously so impressed. So glad I found your channel. I'm a huge Ella Fitzgerald fan, and this is a fantastic rendition of her version. And Cole Porter was a musical genius.

Good heavens, Josh. You must have more videos of EVERYTHING in multitudes of styles, instruments, EVERYTHING - and every one of them sounding so much like the originals, but always even better, unless if course, they're your own originals, and I have to look in the description to tell because they are so blasted good. You are a force to be reckoned with. You are... Well... SOMETHING ELSE!
A very pleasant surprise. I was looking for Peggy Lee's version, and just kind of stumbled across yours. Actually, I like yours better. You are definitely a star in the making, and I will be downloading all of your videos. It's been a pleasure. Thanks.
I've never seen anyone with such a staggeringly broad repertoire and wide ranging talent with so many instruments.
He plays 25 instruments!
He continues to amaze me too. And in the dozens of his videos I've watched, no matter how complicated the material, I've never seen him use a chord chart or music. I don't know how he does it.

People, this is raw talent. Clean and clear and just great.
Easily my favorite subscription. Great Job Josh!
Good thing the Finns do it or I wouldn’t be here. 😉
One of the best renditions of any song I've ever heard.

Will you share it? I want to sing this piece to my girl!
Check the replies on my original comment, there is a link to what I had figured out at the time. Hope it helps and your girl likes it!
I think the HVAC adds an authentic old time tape hiss. Great Job.
Great version, Josh, of an Ella Fitzgerald classic. Great to see young folks playing this wonderful jazz music from the 40's and 50's.
Thank you so much for posting this contagious tune, your breathing and playing are perfect your voice is right on
One of my friends sent me your Facebook page completely out of the blue today, and I was skeptical (as I always am with musical recommendations). This was the first song I listened to, and it convinced me. You are a fantastic musician, and you've just gained a fan!
2:30 is priceless. Even people on UA-cam, do it...
I cant wait to hear more from you and Larkin, you guys are amazing!
Greetings from Germany, Düsseldorf.
I've been listening this song again and again for about an hour. Thank you Josh!
Wow, one of your best Josh! Nothing too crazy, just nice and simple! A pleasure to listen to, thank you!
I hate and love you at the same time. I hate you because I have been playing twice as long as you've been alive,and you're so much better than me. and I love for keeping these great old songs alive by showing them to generations that other wise wouldn't be aware of them. Beautifully done!
I love 💕 this wonderful instrumental but everything you do I absolutely love!!!
A superb arrangement and fabulous performance in every way! You are incredible!
Josh! You are the man! Your creative pallet covers all music.
I do love listening to every song, every piece of music you post here. My evenings aren't fulfilled enough if your music isn't in the background of my late day life. Thank you so much for making something absolutely stunning and beautiful. Xx
I almost didn't watch this (just because I didn't recognize the song) but DANG THIS IS STRAIGHT UP SOO GOOD! Love your talent!
To me, one of the best covers I've ever heard. Looking forward to learning this with your tabs
Next Video please! Can't get enough from your Music and Passion.
Beautiful! Great unplugged. Love it. Thank you.

Porter was a master of language. Josh is a master musician.
Just come to Vancouver already
Haley Blais I hear that is the worst city in America.
Sturmbannführer Toht How so? I live there as well.
Tacomadome24 I heard that it is a hipster hell.
Sturmbannführer Toht Damn straight, shit here is SOOO three years ago smh... /s
Sturmbannführer Toht Well i grew up here and I will always love it here, but the way too expensive real estate and the fact that the Chinese have overtaken the place
Yes! Love this song ever since I heard it in midnight in Paris (movie). Nice job as always!
the whole time im watching this im shaking my head...in amazement. you're one talented artist. im putting you up there with my LEGEND list...james Taylor, Eric clapton, yes...Josh is there too!
Amazingly talented version of a very difficult to play song.

Amazing. I loved this song on Midnight in Paris.
A perfect rendition.
Just astounding ...
super guitar work with a really nice vocal....

Very nicely sung and played ..
This guys voice is a musical instrument on its own never mind the guitar!
This was exactly what cole porter was trying to capture. A lot of people resist performing this with lewed inflections. However thats what this was- the front cover playboy content of the 1910s AKA Burlesque.
This beats every single pop production computer-made thing from the last 25 years
Sounds great Josh.
B&W was tasteful and fun.
i keep caming back for this cover oh god
never noticed how smooth you voice was till this video! great job.
Effortless brilliance. Love your work!

LYRICS
When the little blue bird who has never said a word
Starts to sing, "Spring, spring"
When the little blue bell in the bottom of the dell
Starts to ring, "Ting, ting"
When the little blue clock in the middle of his work
Sings a song to the moon up above
It is nature that's all
Simply telling us to fall in love
And that's why birds do it
Bees do it
Even educated fleas do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love
In Spain, the best
Upper sets do it
Lithuanians and let's do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love
The dutch in old Amsterdam do it
Not to mention the fins
Folks in Siam do it
Think of Siamese twins
Some Argentines
Without means, do it
People say in Boston even beans do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love
Sponges
They say, "Do it"
Oysters down in oyster bay do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love
Cold cape cod clams
Against their wish, do it
Even lazy jellyfish, do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love
Electric eels I might add do it
Though it shocks 'em I know why ask if shad do it
Waiter bring me bring me shad roe
Come on and bring me, bring me shad roe
In shallow shoals
English soles do it
Goldfish in the privacy of bowls do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love
Now if the birds and the bees and the trees do it
The monkeys and the birds, bees do it
In, in water gates they quarrel but they do it
And if they can make up and still do it baby, how about me and you?
Hey let's do it now
Let's do it, let's fall in love
Another great job!! I agree that Larkin should be doing this with you. I look forward to seeing more.
I love this version dude!
Keep the music flowing. Inspiring gorgeous tune.
Like the retro low-fi effect.
Love and I agree with Brett. You and Larkin singing together is my favorite.
Kimberly Leal
Totally! I kept thinking the whole time "Where's Larkin?" This so should've been a duet.
+Kimberly Leal MINE TOO!!
Can't sleep. JT makes the insomnia bearable. 😊
Well I guess I'm gonna just mash this replay button for the next 10 hours.
SidHancock3 literally every josh turner video
Cole would be proud!
!! Incredible....
So sweet!
This is perfect. This boy is perfect!
Woah! Could you please do your next tutorial on this song please?

Hey Josh, saw you play this in Amsterdam.. Awesome stuff dude! Waiting for you to come back!
That intensive black-and-white close-up though.
