Lullaby of the leaves - Ambrose and his Orchestra

Recorded in London, 1 June 1932. Vocal by Sam Browne.

(This isn't the original label, which I've not got a photo of.)

Transferred from an original record in my collection.

{Lyrics}
Cradle me where southern skies can watch me with a million eyes,
Oh sing me to sleep,
Lullaby of the leaves
Cover me with heaven’s blue and let me dream a dream or two,
Oh sing me to sleep,
Lullaby of the leaves.
I’m breezing along, along with the breeze,
I’m hearing a song, a song thru the trees,
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh.
That pine melody caressing the shore familiar to me, I’ve heard it
before ooh ooh ooh ooh.
That’s southland, don’t I feel it in my soul,
And don’t I know I’ve reached my goal,
Oh sing me to sleep,
Lullaby of the Leaves.
(Intermisson)
{End}

This must be the track that left me drifting misplaced in time...

WHY DOES THIS VERSION GO SO FRICKN HARD THO?

[donaldtasca]

I love this song and this arrangement. I get a kick out of the cymbal taps, so common in 30s recordings. If you like this song, I suggest listening to recordings by Keeley Smith, Ella Fitzgerald, and especially Connie Evingson, who is a real treasure.

This reminds of the fact there are some people who made wonderful things, yet I’ll never meet them. 😕

[borfy]

found my new favorite rendition of this song

[not_nightshade]

Cradle me, where southern skies, can watch me with a million eyes...
Sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves...

Cover me with heavens blue, and let me dream or two...
Sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves...

Im breezing along, along with the breeze...
I'm hearing a song, a song in the trees...

A pine melody creasing the shore...
_familiar to me I heard it before_

That's southland!

Don't I feel it in my soul?
Don't I know I reached my goal?

Sing me to sleep...
Lullaby of the leaves...

Imagine being the man who posted this wondering why a lot of people are mentioning 1:45 and something about jump to awareness he must feel so confused

[UnConejo-doff]

Love so much this song with Val Rosing but is very beautiful with all vocals ❤

[mauriceschannel]

I listen to this song when it’s raining. That seems to do the trick. 🌊🌊🌊

[onesetofpajamas]

The dog looks like a painting and real at the same time. If its painted it looks very realistic. If the dog was real and alive back then im sad that its dead but death is just a part of nature's rules. It also reminds me of that one nice stray dog i met years ago i wonder how is that stray dog doing rn

[Sonicthehedgeho]

This is like a mix between C2 and F2

I love it

[Gman-Man_]

Why is no one talking about 1:24, it is a good part of the song.

[hamster]

Sudden Jump To Awareness is actually 1:45 and 1:18, merged together

[Wolfganger]

Bro I literally just rediscovered this, I’d completely *forgotten* about it, it really *brings back memories* from a couple of years ago…

[souumamiragem]

this reminds me of over the garden wall
