    Strange how I was today years old when I discovered this song by Nat King Cole, and in the most random ways. I was listening to a podcast that had a guest named Mona Lisa, the host asked the guest how she got such a unique name, she responded that her father was in Paris, France when she was born. Later in her childhood, her teacher would sing Nat King Cole's Mona Lisa.

    Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa, men have named you
    You're so like the lady with the mystic smile
    Is it only 'cause you're lonely they have blamed you?
    For that Mona Lisa strangeness in your smile?
    Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?
    Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
    Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
    They just lie there and they die there
    Are you warm, are you real, Mona Lisa?
    Or just a cold and lonely lovely work of art?
    Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?
    Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
    Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
    They just lie there and they die there
    Are you warm, are you real, Mona Lisa?
    Or just a cold and lonely lovely work of art?
    Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa
    Don't mind me I'm just posting the lyrics to sing along.

    Outstanding! This morning I wanted to hear this song and found yours while searching for Nat’s. Love what you’ve done with it. Further, I had identical guitar bought in 1974, regrettably sold about 12 years ago. I loved that Guild. Thanks for good music.

    • @justindiazmusic
      @justindiazmusic  5 років тому

      So glad you enjoyed it and I am sad to hear that you no longer have the Guild but at least you got to enjoy it for a bit. :)

      as the others have said, "outstanding interpretation and performance". i have been playing guitar a year now. love it. i am a keyboardist and have played this song for over 35 yrs. picked up my Taylor 224ceK last night and learned this song. a guild D224e is actually being delivered today. this will be the first song i play on it. thanks for your inspiration Justin. 😎🎶

    • @guermeisterdoodlebug7980
      @guermeisterdoodlebug7980 2 роки тому

      I should have mentioned that one reason I love the song so much is memories of my father playing guitar and singing it beautifully in the early 1950s when I was a child.
