Un sólo ser, una sola voz polifónica, ojalá estas jóvenes sean el augurio de una humanidad en que cada cual cante su propia melodia y armonice con la totalidad

[@Quimancho]

Escucho esta canción varias veces al año y siento un temblor en el alma de puro amor por tanta belleza en una canción. Como un solo ser I listen to this song several times a year and I feel a tremor in my soul of pure love for so much beauty in a song. As one being

[@clarinetics5213]

@@raymondortiz1844 unfortunately the arrangement (sold under sheet music plus) is not the one they sing - any idea where to get the "original"?

[@nita3120]

Those silk shiny stockings that I wear when I'm with you I wear cause you told me that you dig that crazy hue Do we think of romance, when we go to a dance? Oh no! You take a glance - at those shiny stockings Then came along some chick with great big stockings too When you changed your mind about me, why I never knew I guess I'll have to find, a new, a new kind A guy who digs my shiny stockings too! (Half rest, then Basie piano lead - measured.)(Piano/reed section call and response.) (Basie piano/brass repeat call and response. Reeds join in. Crescendo, then diminuendo.) (Thad Jones muted trumpet lead- moderate soft.)(Muted trumpet/reeds call and response.) (Muted trumpet/brass repeat call and response. Reeds join. Crescendo.) (Explosive drum solo, half rest, and then big band explodes.) Shiny stockings! Shiny stocking (Band jams! Then diminuendo.) Then came along some chick with great big stockings too When you changed your mind about me, why I never knew I guess I'll have to find, a new, a new kind A guy who digs my shiny stockings too!

[@JoeDennisMusic]

[@susannalink7680]

[@T_Burd_75]

Beautiful voices...but wouldn't it have made sense to sing about shiny stockings while wearing shiny stockings?

[@vova47]

They may not swing like Basie band but are much easier on the eye. That finger snapping is annoying though....
