As I Love You - Jo Stafford

This is Jo's performance of this Jay Livingston, Ray Evans classic from @ 1955 which was later recorded by Shirley Bassey. I think this is Jo's greatest song and has a rich, warm intimate touch not captured by Shirley. Please enjoy it. I am curious to find out more about this song if anyone knows.

My goodness and this is why I put her in my top 3 favorite favorite female singers.

Unbeatable! No one comes near her. An American Treasure!

Lovely Version, Quite Beautiful in every Way!

Such a lovely song. I agree that Jo gives it a warmer feel than Shirley.

... Such greatness and real class . . . . . and so many absorb the audio garbage today, like "rap" . . . . Pitiful.

Bassey and Stafford are different singers. Bassey controls songs Stafford engages songs. Both now.
Listen to I Capricorn from Bassey.
You will understand.
