More Than You Know
“Love is much like a wild rose, beautiful
and calm,
but willing to draw blood in its defense.”
- Mark Overby
|
Dear Friends and Schoolmates, Before the
holiday themed Newsletters begin on Tuesday, there's still time for another
melancholy old blues number.
BONUS #1 - More Than You Know - Johnny Mathis - a definitive arrangement with a pretty slide show! BONUS #2 - More Than You Know - Mel Torme with the Marty Paich Orchestra, 1988 - Hmmm - beautiful version, but he seriously reinterpreted the lyrics, changing the entire meaning, by switching a few pronouns here and there..... BONUS #3 - More Than You Know - Jane Monheit with Jonathan Kreisberg on guitar and Joe Martin on bass, 2003 |
From
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/More_Than_You_Know_%281929_song%29: The song was
introduced in the
Broadway
musical
Great Day where it was sung by
Mayo Methot. It was also popularized on the stage and
radio by
Jane Froman.[1]
The most popular contemporary recordings[1]
were by
Helen Morgan (Victor
catalog number 22149),[1][2]
and by
Libby Holman (Brunswick
catalog number 4613).[1][3] The song was subsequently included in three
musical films:
Hit the Deck (1955), sung by
Tony Martin;
Funny Lady (1975), sung by
Barbra Streisand; and
The Fabulous Baker Boys (1989) sung by
Michelle Pfeiffer (in a memorable introductory scene for her
character). It has been recorded by many artists, including
Star Trek Next Generation's
Brent Spiner on his 1991 album
Ol' Yellow Eyes Is Back.
"More Than You Know" is a
popular
song, with music written by
Vincent Youmans and lyrics by
Billy Rose and
Edward Eliscu. The song was published in 1929.

| “Some
might say, 'What do I have to be grateful for when my world is falling
apart?' “Perhaps focusing on what we are grateful for is the wrong approach. It is difficult to develop a spirit of gratitude if our thankfulness is only proportional to the number of blessings we can count. True, it is important to frequently “count our blessings”—and anyone who has tried this knows there are many—but I don’t believe the Lord expects us to be less thankful in times of trial than in times of abundance and ease. In fact, most of the scriptural references do not speak of gratitude for things but rather suggest an overall spirit or attitude of gratitude. “It is easy to be grateful for things when life seems to be going our way. But what then of those times when what we wish for seems to be far out of reach? Could I suggest that we see gratitude as a disposition, a way of life that stands independent of our current situation? In other words, I’m suggesting that instead of being thankful for things, we focus on being thankful in our circumstances—whatever they may be.”

(27 Sept 1898 - 05 Apr 1946)
Whether you are false or true
Whether you remain or wander
I am growing fonder of you
Even though your friends forsake you
Even though you don't succeed
Wouldn't I be glad to take you
Give you the break you need
More than you know, more than you know
Girl of my heart, I love you so
Lately I find, you're on my mind
More than you know
Whether you're right, whether you're wrong
Girl of my heart, I'll string along
I need you so
Much more than you'll ever know
Loving you the way that I do
There's nothing I can do about it
Loving may be all you can give
But baby I can't live without it
Oh how I'd cry, oh how I'd cry
If you got tired, and said good-bye
More than I'd show
More than you'd ever know
