Here's To Life - Joe Williams & Shirley Horn

[@thorntonwilliams3851]

It rarely gets better than what Joe gives here

[@shaun_rambaran]

The serenity of Shirley's final note and the way it disappears into the strings; so beautiful.

[@edwardmallon8679]

Anyone not moved by this masterpiece has no soul

[@teapartier5584]

Agree. Fills my eyes with tears.

[@donalddenison8896]

Everyone should listen to the lyrics of this great song and try to make the words part of their window on their life.

[@thorntonwilliams3851]

My sentiment exactly

[@redmartinize]

What a song! They make it sound so easy (that's why they are who they are). This is the song to listen to, but more importantly...to breathe to.

[@johnhorner7510]

Lots of feeling from Joe and Shirley! It's GREAT, VERY MUSICAL!! I wish the whole world would love their music! I hope they're NEVER FORGOTTEN. HERE'S TO LIFE FOR ALL OF US!!

[@stevesmith6685]

What a great song, sung by a great singer. One of my top ten, top five singers of the 20th century or any century. And Shirley Horn... God bless her for a great song and being a great musician!

As I was growing up back in the day , there were crooners and there were singers, Mr. Joe Williams was a great singer nuf sed.

[@KitCotter]

Yes, many have covered this song, & well, but when Shirley sang it we realised whose song it was… makes me tear-up still, & I've heard it soo many times. Credit to Johnny Mandel's great arrangements, too.

[@MJLeger-yj1ww]

Very true -- nicely said, "Kit Cotter." Shirley's version is best of anyone.

[@bstz44]

I love him - beyond words. I love the way he delivers a song

[@teapartier5584]

First time hearing this version - absolutely beautiful.

[@davidjewell3227]

Un -blooming -believable wow what a song...I had heard Shirley Horne before but this one song certainly spells how we should live, restful, relaxing yet challenged..the best song I have heard in years and,.. I was a rock drummer but love this music..

[@MJLeger-yj1ww]

This was Shirley Horn's signature song, and it fits, she always had a pleasant expression on her face, which betrayed how much she enjoyed performing, and she must have been a wonderful person. This is a nice version by Joe also, but Shirley does it best of anyone. Joe changes the lyrics a bit, but it's still nice.

[@dimuccio2]

TWO of the greats..

[@trendy188]

M's Shirley Horn another great singer.

[@teapartier5584]

Hearing this song makes me jealous I was not her close friend.

[@gracewilford9556]

Have always loved 💘 Joe Williams

[@Haljoyceful]

Wow, when singing was called true singing. Beautiful, it's like a Disney World moment❤️

[@JazzPublicist]

Artie Butler wrote this song for Joe Williams. Shirley asked Joe if she could record it an, of course, Joe said yes. Her's came out first. But I love Joe's version best. Love Shirley's also, just a great song.

[@steves1588]

2 of my favorites. How Beautiful.

[@wrendor9465]

Mr. Joe Williams ♡

[@analistasenior6047]

Voz bonita do Joe Williams...💎

[@JazzPublicist]

This song was written for Joe and gave Shirley permission to record it first because of record company complications. Joe was leaving Verve to go another co. Great friendship.

[@thorntonwilliams3851]

Shirley's version is top class. Too bad they didn't do this as a duet!

[@peacefull778]

This sounds great check out Mary Wilson version of this Just as Beautiful

[@Fnafbonnie1153]

Im a eagle

[@RonaldCharlesEpstein]

I never knew that it was recorded as a duet.

[@btinsley1]

it wasn't recorded as a duet. this is Joe's version...then shirley's version.

[@lindaperkins4521]

WEIRD combination - i hoped for a duet or some kind of combination. this is not.
