THERE MUST BE SOMEONE WAITING WHO FEELS THE WAY I DO
El tándem formado por el letrista Arthur Freed y el músico Nacio Herb Brown dejó a la posteridad toda una serie de canciones maravillosas que pronto se convirtieron en standards en las voces de los mejores artistas: Broadway melody, You were meant for me, Singin' in the rain, Temptation, All I do is dream of you, You are my lucky star, Broadway rhythm, Good morning o Alone. En su juventud, Judy Garland, a quien hoy recordamos especialmente, interpretó varias de ellas en sus películas. Tal es el caso de Alone, introducida por Kitty Carlisle y Allan Jones en "Una noche en la ópera" (1935), la primera producción M.G.M. que protagonizaron Los Hermanos Marx. Cinco años después Judy la cantó en "Andrés Harvey, tenorio" (Andy Hardy meets debutante, 1940) de George B. Seitz. Posteriormente fue grabada por artistas como Sarah Vaughan, Pat Boone o Dinah Washington. De entre todas las versiones conocidas de esta hermosa canción, me parece la más conmovedora la de Garland, quien nos dejó tal día como hoy en 1969.

Alone (lyrics)
Alone,
Alone with a sky of romance above.
Alone,
Alone on a night that was meant for love.
Alone with a sky of romance above.
Alone,
Alone on a night that was meant for love.
There must be someone waiting
who feels the way I do.
Whoever you are, are you, are you.
who feels the way I do.
Whoever you are, are you, are you.
Alone,
Alone on this night that we two could share.
Alone,
Alone with a kiss that could make me care.
And when you come I promiseAlone on this night that we two could share.
Alone,
Alone with a kiss that could make me care.
to be your very own!
Alone,
Alone with a heart meant for love
A...
And when you come I promise
to be your very own!
Alone,
Alone with a heart meant for you
Alone.
Siempre maravillosa!!
