James,,
is "Something About The Way You Look Tonight" different than the song from "My Best Friends Wedding".."Just The Way You Look Tonight?" I think it's 2 different songs because I dont 'recall Elton John ever singing that one?? :? :shock: Anyhow,,,,that is one of my all-time favorite songs "Just The Way You Look Tonight' also sung at the end of "Father Of The Bride".... biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif


Pattie, it's 2 different songs.

"THE WAY YOU LOOK TONIGHT" from MY Best Friend's Wedding goes ...

Some day, when I'm awfully low,
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow
Just thinking of you...
And the way you look tonight.

Yes you're lovely
With your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft,
There is nothing for me
But to love you,
And the way you look tonight.

With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fear apart...
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
It touches my foolish heart.

Lovely ... Never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it ?
'Cause I love you ...
Just the way you look tonight.

Mm, Mm, Mm, Mm,
Just the way you look tonight.


Elton John's "SOMETHING ABOUT THE WAY YOU LOOK TONIGHT" goes ...

There was a time
I was everything and nothing all in one
When you found me
I was feeling like a cloud across the sun

I need to tell you
How you light up every second of the day
But in the moonlight
You just shine like a beacon on the bay

And I can't explain
But it's something about the way you look tonight
Takes my breath away
Its that feeling I get about you, deep inside
And I can't describe
But it's something about the way you look tonight
Takes my breath away
The way you look tonight

With a smile
You pull the deepest secrets from my heart
In all honesty
I'm speechless and I don't know where to start


Here a link to a sample of the Elton John song - http://www.amazon.com/Something-About-Way-...4015&sr=1-1

However, I'm glad that you brought up the other song, that's a GREAT song!!!!!

James

They're two different songs. I love them both, but I would LOVE to hear David do "Something About the Way You Look Tonight". GOOD suggestion, James. I know I'm a little more emotional than usual right now, but just thinking of that song makes me cry (in a happy way).

Also, I'd like to hear David sing "Dream a Little Dream of Me" as recorded by Dean Martin. That's mine and Steve's song. smile.gif (All together now everybody: AWWWWWWW) LOL :oops:


Thanks Kellie! It's OK to be emotional. :wink:

Would that the same "Dream A Little Dream Of Me" that Mama Cass recorded???


Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper "I love you"
Birds singing in the sycamore tree
Dream a little dream of me
Say "Night-ie night" and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me
While I'm alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on, dear
Still craving your kiss
I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me.


I LOVE that song! I'd also like to add "Dedicated To The One I Love" by The Mamas & The Papas to the list.

And here is a question: hasn't he sang two different songs with a similar title, one with a quasi-Hawaiian sound to it on the Gaither Hawaii video, and the Sinatra number which I KNOW he sang for us in Springfield this last August?


Well give us the titles Bill and we'll answer...Can't believe you don't have those??? tongue.gif tongue.gif :roll: :wink: :oops: tongue.gif


Fly Me To The Moon and Fly Me To The Moon, respectively.


I think the one on the Hawaiian Homing was "Over The Moon""..Or... "Beyond the Moon".... Both Frank, Tony, and Eddie Gorme recorded "Fly Me To The Moon" ...... Non as well as DP....and Fly Me to The Moon is one of Hubbys Most Favorite songs and he has listened to all versions!! tongue.gif tongue.gif tongue.gif tongue.gif

Diamond Rio sings a really pretty song called ONE MORE DAY.
[b]Love that song Wanda...I also love the Diamond Rio song "I believe"...so pretty....here are the lyrics..

Every now and then soft as breath upon my skin
I feel you come back again
And its like you havent been gone a moment from my side
Like the tears were never cried
Like the hands of time are holding you and me
And with all my heart Im sure were closer than we ever were
I dont have to hear or see, Ive got all the proof I need
There are more than angels watching over me
I believe, I believe

Chorus
That when you die your life goes on
It doesnt end here when youre gone
Every soul is filled with light
It never ends and if Im right
Our love can even reach across eternity
I believe, I believe

Forever, youre a part of me
Forever, in the heart of me
And Ill hold you even longer if I can
The people who dont see the most
Say that I believe in ghosts
And if that makes me crazy, then I am
cause I believe

There are more than angels watching over me
I believe, I believe
