Thanks Ms. Allison, for keeping the old standards alive. Nobody does it better.

[@luciusbouchard3533]

I second this assertion. A big thank you for sharing these Time Capsules with us. 💜

[@Wobbz9413]

Diana Krall does it better by far! This, however, is very nice.

[@yendorcire]

That would be a great song to cover!

[@JackFlaps]

@@Wobbz9413 everyone has favorites, so what

[@johnnypee]

Wow! Thank you for two minutes and forty seconds of peace. I love how your voice just floats in the air. The guitar sounds perfect, too. Like air on a G string.I am outside listening with a gazillion peepers and crickets accompanying you. It’s perfect.

[@jeffhughes6167]

This lovely lady has a talent that only one in a million can achieve, I’m a huge fan of the restraint of her vocal control, she is simply amazing !!!!!

[@trainliker100]

She sings like she has lived through and experienced every decade going back to the 1920's. WAY more than just a wonderful voice.

[@Bmarker299]

Well said! i remain speechless. Natural grace

[@brassinpocket76]

Couldn't stop smiling. Perfect blend of your voice and Chancey's low-key electric. Thank you.

[@Tyndan]

Such a beautiful song. Julie London is criminally unknown outside of certain circles. Fantastic rendition.

[@Yesica1993]

I only knew her from my childhood watching of the 70's EMERGENCY! show. I had no idea she was a singer! I'd been recently watching the show again and decided to look her up. I couldn't believe it. I kept checking the picture and name and info to be sure it was the same person, LOL! She's amazing!

[@dang1861]

@@Yesica1993 She was married to Bobby Troup, who was Dr. Joe Early on EMERGENCY! He wrote the song Route 66.

[@dbcooper-alltimehideandsee6223]

​@@Yesica1993pretty much the same. She was part of the Jack Webb TV and jazz universe.

[@michaelwestgate2124]

I love the way you never over-sing anything and just let the song speak for itself. Beautiful. I would like to hear you sing 'The folks who live on the hill' one day!

[@mannybochamp7342]

Magnificent and sublime

[@geraldellis4875]

Dang Ms Allison! What on earth... That gave me the shakes!!! You are the definition of angelic. WELL DONE!!!

[@denisep.98]

Wow - goosebumps. Even Julie has to be a little jealous, looking down from her perch. What an amazing rendition of this classic. 💕

[@foljs5858]

Alison's voice beats Julie London

[@michaeltutty1540]

Absolutely stunning. I love to hear a musician who can sing a well known song, but make it their own while remaining true to the composer's message

[@massimochiappina5833]

Amazing voice, gorgeous guitar sound.

[@marcushaliwell7340]

Agree in part. She is a wonderful singer with superb control of pitch and delivery. Quite how she manages to sing this song with so many incidental notes in it while being accompanied by what I think is unnecessarily fussy guitar playing I do not know.Sure he’s good/clever but he could learn better when to be good/clever. As someone else remarks she doesn’t warble like many American singers who do it to show off which seems to me what his guitar playing is doing - even thought it doesn’t bring anything to the performance. This girl os one in I don’t know how many million

[@sunnysmilessunshine4060]

Thank you Allison, it's always a Beautiful day when we have a new post from you. Absolutely Lovely.

[@63sgjunior]

Beautifully done. Where have you been when the world needed more of your music? Please don't leave it so long to post more. ❤👍

[@wyattblessing7078]

She's been on tour with Josh.

[@salimufari]

& that's after her PMJ tour.

[@msapostle]

You are absolutely a fantastic singer Allison....a true gift.

[@andrelacourse]

What a lovely soft and sultry tone. What a great version of a classic. 👏👏👏

[@UncleDansVintageVinyl]

Oh, just superb! I love it that you avoided the trap of adding too many vocal tricks. Like the divine Ms. London herself, you just used tasteful, tasteful phrasing to deliver this superb song. Amen amen amen!

[@markweaver1012]

Agreed! For me, all the vocal gymnastics are like fingernails on a chalkboard -- Allison's style is bliss in comparison (is it too much to hope that her style is making a comeback?)

[@bobtaylor170]

She's a marvel. You just don't expect to find this in a young woman. I like Samara Joy, and Esperanza Spalding is her own weird delight, but Alison here not only has great taste, but yes, she doesn't do the unbearable vocal gymnastics which 99% of people today take for granted constitutes "real" singing. I'd like to believe a wider public will come to appreciate her, but I fear her ceiling is limited by the stupidity which has engulfed the population.

[@trainliker100]

Exactly. I like to call this sort of singing "honest and true." It was actually one of Frank Sinatra's secrets. He said you should sing the song as the composer wrote it.

[@bobtaylor170]

@@trainliker100 even Thelonious Monk advised, "Always play the melody!"

[@robertsmith9373]

Awesome, thank you for keeping the old easy listening music 🎶 alive. You are the best.... as is your super talented guitar 🎸 player.

Magnificent vocal Allison on this classic song. I don't believe it could be sung any better.

[@cadwalladee01]

beyootiful! Silky voice - dazzling guitar work... Lovely version!

[@aislingbooks]

My mother used to sing this song with her rich alto voice. Your cover is so lovely too. Thanks, Allison. It brought back sweet memories.

[@patrickgibson6648]

Such a nice meld of sultry and sweet. Always a pleasure to hear her sing, especially the old standards.

[@johnsinger8534]

Allison - you are so amazing !!! Love you so much !!!!

[@WS102]

Great singing as always. I love the tone of Gretsch guitars. So smooth.

[@howlinhobbit]

one of my all time favorites, and Ms London’s version is my yardstick for other versions. you managed to equal that easily, while putting your own feel into it. I swoon!

[@ParaBellum2024]

Allison never disappoints. Pure class. Are you familiar with Merle Haggard's version? The instrumentation's a bit OTT, but he sang it with conviction: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHSZmHysatCjp80.

[@howlinhobbit]

@@ParaBellum2024 - thanks! I like his work already but I’d never have guessed he’d cover this sort of tune. he just tore it up! p.s. I don’t find the instrumentation over the top. whoever produced this recording had a light touch.

[@garry-t5056]

Just perfect! Thank you Allison, it was a lovely surprise when this popped into my notifications.

[@cguzelli1]

A music producer here. Allison you embrace the essence of Julie London's original, but you make it your own. A different vocal timbre and phrasing that is so tasteful letting your version stand out with exceptional guitar playing.

Magnifiquement beau... Bravo à vous deux 👏🎸🎶

such a beautiful voice.

[@MarkGalbraithVideos]

Beautiful. Really lovely.

[@theivory1]

That is one beautiful song, and an even prettier guitar.

[@billytetlow]

Should Allison ever read these comments, I was the guy at the Robin Hoods bay gig who asked her why hadn't she recorded Cry Me a River, she told me that she had and pointed me to where I could find it, I did and wow, I now have three versions of the song, Ella Fitzgerald who sang the original, Julie London whose husband wrote it, and now Allison, all are superb and I will never be able to decide who does it best. Thanks Allison, wonderful evening with Bygones last night.

[@alicerunion]

Wow, that gave me chills ❤ Thank you both for sharing your talent and beautiful music!

[@danielbierwirth2190]

This has got to be one of the most beautiful songs You've done. I remember Julie London doing it on TV when I was very young. TV's were Black and White in those days. My parents had a number of her albums and some with her husband Bobby Troupe who was an incredible musician in his own right. I'm pretty sure we have unopened copies of them somewhere in their stuff. My Dad never bought 1 album. He always bought 2, one to open and the other went in his collection un opened. This style of music fits your singing style very well. Thanks for bringing back some wonderful memories, and sharing this beautiful song.

[@andrewowen-price4496]

I'm old enough to remember buying the original Julie London 45rpm single, I think on Decca 'black label, with brown and white stripe paper cover. Always a great song - terrific remaking by Alison and Chanceyland).For me, pure time travel :)

[@beauxjardins]

This is so beautiful! Thanks for posting!!

[@marvinwhisman3333]

I think Julie London would be very happy with your arrangement. Great job Allison, so glad you held to the original version.

[@hrperformance]

Beautiful music! ❤

[@dlanska]

Fabulous duet. Both performers did an great job. The voice and guitar are matched nicely, and much better than some prior videos when the vocalist was not separately mic'd or when the guitarist over-performed during the singing.

[@JukeboxJoeB]

That was beautiful! I've always loved this song and you did a great job singing it! I also really love your whole look!

[@spotterofgold]

Sublime. Thanks, Allison.

[@PhilosopherThom]

One of my favourite jazz numbers that strangely isn't a standard. I only know Diana Krall live in Paris and the Londen version. My former singing teacher who graduated cum laude at the Conservatorium for jazz singing didn't know the song when I brought it in. Lovely to have another good version to listen to. Kudos!

[@tjnightingale]

Love your voice. Especially how you make songs your own. So well done!

[@maurylee5239]

Allison, you are a gift. Understatement carries great weight. The truth is so bare it doesn't need additional force. Restraint that you have is wonderful. Keep up the good work.

[@michaelrobinson1905]

Beautiful Allison. You got the torch singer thing down for sure.

[@ericbell871]

As usual...Just WOW!

[@Bellerophon17]

I like that is brighter or more frivolous than the classic version - makes it sound more like a sardonic "F U" than someone resigned and talking to the bottom of their wine glass. Always reminds me of V for Vendetta too.

[@oldmanriver9909]

One of my favorite songs. Well done

[@barbarac.1857]

It's just after midnight here in the UK, and KZbin flags up a fresh offering from Allison. What a lovely way to start a new day. I knew I was going to uptick this song and soon as I saw that Allison was covering it. It's ideally suited to her voice, and she performs it with aplomb.
