DAYS OF MAD ROMANCE AND LOVE
Yesterdays es una canción compuesta por Jerome Kern con letra de Otto Harbach para el musical de Broadway "Roberta" (1933), donde fue estrenada por Fay Templeton. Dos años después Irene Dunne la interpretó en la traslación a la pantalla del citado musical y después se convirtió en un standard que multitud de artistas incluyeron en su repertorio. Billie Holiday la grabó por primera vez en 1939 para el sello Commodore. Sirva aquí para recordar a la extraordinaria cantante de Philadelphia en su aniversario natal.

Days I knew as happy sweet
Sequestered days
Olden days
Golden days

Then gay youth was mine
Truth was mine
Joyous free in flame and life
Then sooth was mine

Glad am I
For today I'm dreamin' of
