"You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness." is and always will be one of my all time favorite lyrics.

[@ctfddftba]

I love that she isn't just singing the original melody to a jazzier track. She's actually made it fit the 'time period' of the song, unlike some of the others

Yes, because she sings flat

[@danielr3738]

@@elenikiroy than you don't get the meaning of "flat"...

[@iromosushi6291]

@@danielr3738 I think they mean flat as in the musical symbol? Like she used more flat notes than the normal ones (I forgot the proper term, haven't revise my music theory in ages) and flat notes are so rarely used in this frequency in a full song so it gives a new sensation.

[@kendallspear9912]

@@iromosushi6291 minor notes?

[@RavenclawNimbus]

@@elenikiroy I have a pretty good ear for flat singing, and I’m pretty sure she isn’t flat. I think it may be her style, and it just seems like she’s singing flat, when in reality she’s just using a jazzy style.

[@collisciouscollie5286]

Cold grey eyes met bright blue ones amidst a sea of strangers. A lifetime ago, he would’ve run to her without hesitation, a smile on his face and a greeting on his tongue. But this time, he would only turn away as if he’d never seen her. “Isn’t she your lover?” The girl at his side asked. “No. She’s just somebody I used to know.” He replied. And the two parted ways for the last time, as strangers, just as they had been when they first met.

[@laurinh.3021]

Where s that from ?

[@maryg2658]

*slow claps*

[@marcelinacastleberry8858]

it feels weird because most 40's songs had an upbeat feel to combat the war tensions and to hear some of the more negative words and more sad beat felt odd based on the time period....

[@113-M]

There is truth in that, but the generation that went though the second world war also survived the Great Depression and Prohibition. Those were really tough times, and America (even the world) was forever changed. Heck, there are historical analysts who pointed out how America was unprepared to fight the Axis Powers. There are a host of other examples: the Dust Bowl, poverty, diseases, etc. So, these melancholy words shows another side to the times.

[@beforethemast3678]

This is definitely inspired by Benny Goodman’s “Why Don’t You Do Right”

[@atom-o-tronic3505]

This is more of a Noir, night club song. Fits right into that theme.

[@bocrux]

Agreed, I think the cheery performance is a bit off-putting.

[@jasonjoyce7835]

Definitely not true. This is a "torch" style song. They were very popular back in the 30s/40s.

[@colinaskey3733]

This sounds like a detective series where the main character is being seduced in a bar while having memories of his deceased wife that wanted him not to get too involved in his job and seek divorce.

[@sofirvalle]

why did this reminded me of aaron hotchner from criminal minds omg-

[@zuzannawitt2197]

[@s3renity690]

Zuzanna Witt what's not original from them?

[@zuzannawitt2197]

S3RENITY I simply meant that I felt sometimes that previous covers are different, without a specific plan for them, maybe like made for only for the audience, to check another Thursday. I haven't heard here anything like this before.

[@chariskoulousis6938]

GreenGlassScarab the irony is that this song used to be my favourite one but i had never had the curiosity of checking more songs of him

[@WilliamHasMelted]

The drops of rain fell to the floor of the night club as I entered. The place was called "The Lonley Sailor," and looked like any other place where the lowest of the low would be. So naturally, I got right in. I suppose the dim lights and the cigar snoke were to convince all the drug dealers and murders that they were somehow hidden from God, but then again, I don't think the big man would appreciated my past. My lead was telling me that I could find some dirt on my suspect by asking some questions to his lady friend who sang at this fine establishment, one Miss Hannah Gill. He warned me about Miss Gill. He told me that she carried a small pistol in her purse, but what was more dangerous was her sharp tounge. She could have you yelling for info one second and then handing over the dead to your home the next. He warned me that she had some unfavorable connections. People she had owed were always after anyone who did so much as look in her direction. Lastly, he warned me. Under no circumstances could I fall in love with her. But after sitting down at the bar, getting the smoke from the lungs of the bartender out of my face and ordering a stiff drink, I realized something that my lead hadn't warned me about her. Her voice. If it wasn't for the undeniable fact that she was right there, I woulda swore an angel had appeared in the bar and was working for tips as a singer. I knew the words she was singing must have had some meaning, but all I could hear was the range she had on her. Every high and low drew me closer and closer. I'm afraid I'd have to tell my lead I disobeyed his advice.

This makes me feel like I need to be wearing a long black trench coat finishing up a glass of scotch at my favorite dive bar and then putting on my hat, adjusting the coat against the weather, exiting the bar into the cold rain, and walking down the street while my own voice over informs the audience about my worries about solving this case before I get myself killed and how sad I am about the love of my life leaving me, all in black and white

[@bruna7721]

Now and then I think of when we were together Like when you said you felt so happy you could die Told myself that you were right for me But felt so lonely in your company But that was love and it's an ache I still remember You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness Like resignation to the end, always the end So when we found that we could not make sense Well, you said that we would still be friends But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over But you didn't have to cut me off Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing And I don't even need your love But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough No, you didn't have to stoop so low Have your friends collect your records and then change your number I guess that I don't need that though Now you're just somebody that I used to know Now you're just somebody that I used to know Now you're just somebody that I used to know Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over But had me believing it was always something that I'd done But I don't wanna live that way, reading into every word you say You said that you could let it go And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know But you didn't have to cut me off Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing And I don't even need your love But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough No, you didn't have to stoop so low Have your friends collect your records and then change your number I guess that I don't need that though Now you're just somebody that I used to know Somebody, I used to know Somebody, now you're just somebody that I used to know Somebody, I used to know Somebody, now you're just somebody that I used to know I used to know That I used to know I used to know Somebody

I’ll continue what Anon E. Mousse wrote somewhere in the comments. The dame tutted her lips, watching him take a draw of his cigarette. “You do the same.” He glanced up at her curiously, in which she trailed her fingertips along his desk to his couch, never sitting next to him. “You remind me of somebody I used to know.” Taking out her purse, she took a picture and slid it towards him. “Tell me if you know them.”
