Apologies for anyone trying to access this song a little earlier. I noticed it was distorting so I lowered the volume and reloaded to youtube. Thanks for your patience.

I adore this song, I have very strong memories of 1975, and this song is one of them, although, sadly I don’t think I was in love at the time it was released :)

…”Moonglow” is a 1934 popular song with music by Will Hudson and Irving Mills and words by Eddie DeLange. It was first recorded by the Dorsey Brothers Orchestra and Ethel Waters in 1934, and has been recorded many times since. … source Wikipedia

I wanted to sing the Doris Day one, it’s really gorgeous, but I could only source Rod Stewart… it’s a little less romantic and more upbeat.

EAW Cuckoo’s & Covers Challenge/Showcase Thingy CV

LoveSong – The Cure (Piano)

EAW Cuckoo’s & Covers Challenge/Showcase Thingy CV: April 14 – April 21

Theme Post a song that’s a cover (a song sung by someone other than the original artist).

I found this gorgeous piano piece when scoring the net for covers
- under instrumental, on YouTube, the original poster does not say who
it is that plays! I do not claim any copyright, it remains with the
originating artists – I sing as a tribute to The Cure and the player of
the piano! :D This is very different from the original, peppy number.
Wonderful how a tempo can completely change the emotion and pull of a
song.

EDITED: I contacted the person who had this piece of music
on their website and they did not know where it came from – I am
currently trying to gain approval on this as I really believe in
supporting the originating artists…

I would direct you to The Cure’s Website: http://www.thecure.com/default.aspx

I have been a fan of Robert Smith for many years, early teens! Remember
watching on TOTPs :D I love his style and his interpretation of
music… one of my very favourite songs, is ‘Friday’s I’m In Love’ -
along with ‘Love Cats’… I love the more moodier side too, but these
two songs in particular I have found have always lifted my mood right
up, and I used to look forward to Friday’s because it was a Friday
song!

He has some very strong words about ‘Free Music’ here
and I agree with the need to support artists – please do browse the
online store: http://www.thecure.com/discography/

I am singing it for our new friendly challenge which anyone is invited to
come and join us -running until 21st June, 2009 – Cuckoos & Covers

http://www.sing-share.com/SMF/index.p…

UPDATE:
15th April, 2009 – this recording is currently seeking retrospective
approval… the original artist of the song Lovesong is The Cure…
please support this artist and their work. This song is a tribute only
and seeks no monetary benefit for the singer, CerebralJam.
