If more people listened to this more often, the world would be a more peaceful place.

Chet covered this song many times through all his life, sometimes dense, sometimes uptempo, and sometimes even very uninspired. But this one, Belgium 1964 is the best of them all

[glennD]

I’ve already decided, this is going to be the song playing for my first dance with my future bride. Such a warm song

[charlesbarry]

His singing is an extension of his trumpet playing. Excellent.

[curtislong]

A lot of people can play music, but no one else FELT it like Chet Baker.

[RobertCooper-ebkq]

Well I’ve just had an uplifting evening crying over Chet Baker, move over Leonard Cohen, I’ve found someone new to die with. RIP beautiful man

[fattmusiek]

I adore Chet's vocal. His straight tone, the intervals and extensions he chooses to hit...This is the best version of "Time After Time, " imo, for sure. RIP Chet.

[JeannieSargent]

That flute player.. sitting there the entire song to play a single note at the end makes me giggle every time I watch this. Chet's solo here was nothing short of completely amazing.

[alexeonbel]

I will never say that Chet Baker was a phenomenal singer, but there's something about his voice that just...works. and all things considered, he actually does sing extremely well. Keeping within his vocal range and never going off tune when he hits the higher notes. He's definitely in my top 10 of jazz singers.

Lyrics according to Genius:

"Time after time
I tell myself that I'm
So lucky to be loving you
So lucky to be
The one you run to see
In the evening when the day is through

I only know what I know
The passing years will show
You've kept my love so young, so new

And time after time
You'll hear me say that I'm
So lucky to be loving you

[horn solo]

I only know what I know
The passing years will show
You've kept my love so young, so new

And time after time
You'll hear me say that I'm
So lucky to be loving you"

[norahkluis]

I cannot hear this song and not cry....of missing you my dear dear Chet! forever alive in my heart

[ninersboy]

What a gorgeous flugelhorn solo - absolute magic. Pure Chet.

[danielgauthier]

and time after time
you hear me say that I'm
so lucky to be... loving you...





nobody interprets this song better than Mr. Baker.

[ksharp]

This is one of the most beautiful performances i have ever seen and heard

[daveallen]

I am to get married 21/07 and this song is to be my first dance - what a great tribute to Chet

[Crinklechip-s]

I wish I could go back in time to see Chet. One of my all time favourite Jazz artists.

[michelepeacock]

So poignant. Nearly brings me to tears every time I listen. So good. Timeless.

[danielboisvert-couture]

The beauty of this and his lyricism are unmatched...

[martinromantico]

The best, most beautiful version of this standard. The quintessence of his trumpet playing and unique singing style. Sounds like an angel. 😊Chet was an icon of a jazz musician.

[eloiseripley]

Time after time I tell myself that I'm
So lucky to be loving you
So lucky to be
The one you run to see
In the evening when the day is through
I only know what I know
The passing years will show
You've kept my love so young, so new
And time after time
You'll hear me say that I'm
So lucky to be loving you
I only know what I know
The passing years will show
You've kept my love so young, so new
And time after time
You'll hear me say that I'm
So lucky to be loving you
