    Goodman is almost in tears toward the end - I feel he's remembering the first recording, done with a very young Peggy Lee a few weeks after Pearl Harbor was bombed and the U.S. entered the war.

    so wonderful, so spare, so heartfelt, and so very, very glamorous as you sang the perfect song for this occasion. one of the highlights of your singing career. it proved Benny Goodman was right to have the faith he had in you.

      Yes - restraint in music creates a space of partial silence that pulls you in - to an interior space. It's a lost value in modern performance, especially in singers.
