It's a shame, the original from 1941 with Bob Eberly on vocals is better; that's one people also should know

Thanks Charles Adams! I play a lot of his stuff for my kids and they love it! Dorsey was a first-rate jazz instrumentalist, but he really excelled on ballads, many of which he wrote himself! Like, "It's the Dreamer in Me", "I Love You In Technicolor", "Any Time at All", "Two Again", "It's Anybody's Moon" and more

Jimmy was the premier alto player, of the era, but it always strikes me, when listening to him, all these years later, that much of his work still sounds contemporary! Goodman and Miller and Tommy still sound great, today, but they sound 'big band era;' Jimmy simply sounds like... jazz! I can close my eyes and imagine him, today, on a small stage, or in a club, wailing out Tangerine or Dance Ballerina or Green Dolphin Street...or I'm Glad There is You!

These are the lyrics to the song: In this world of ordinary people Extraordinary people I’m glad there is you In this world of over-rated pleasures Of under-rated treasures I’m so glad there is you I live to love, I love to live with you beside me This role so new, I’ll muddle through with you to guide me In this world where many, many play at love And hardly any stay in love I’m glad there is you More than ever, I’m glad there is you.

The preamble to the song is left out of most recordings. These are the introductory lyrics from the sheet music: "Said I, many times, love is illusion, A feeling result of confusion. With knowing smile, and blazing sigh, A cynical so-and-so was i. I felt so sure, so positive, So utterly, unchangingly certain. But I never was aware of love and you, And suddenly I realized There was love and you, And I, and I." The song was composed by Jimmy Dorsey and Paul Madeira Mertz.

I never knew about this remake, but believe it or not, this is not the original. The original was also by The Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra, but with Bob Eberly, his famous male vocalist, singing the part, from 1941, also on Decca. You should hear that version if you love this. Even better.
