TENDERLY published in 1946 with music by Walter Lloyd Gross (1909-1967) and lyrics by Jack Lawrence. It became a jazz standard. "Tenderly" has been recorded by many artists (70 at last count!), but perhaps the best-known version was by ROSEMARY CLOONEY. Clooney's recorded version reached only #17 on the Billboard magazine pop charts in early 1952, but IS MORE POPULAR THAN THE CHART DATA WOULD SUGGEST, as is evidenced by the fact that Tenderly served as the theme song for Clooney's 1956-1957 TV variety show. Randolph E. "Randy" Brooks (1919-1967), trumpeter and leader of the top rated Randy Brooks Band, may be best known for their rendition of Tenderly as a most requested song of 1947. (Information from Wikipedia.) --LYRICS-- The evening breeze caressed the trees tenderly The trembling trees embraced the breeze tenderly Then you and I came wandering by And lost in a sigh were we The shore was kissed by sea and mist tenderly I can't forget how two hearts met breathlessly Your arms opened wide and closed me inside You took my lips, you took my love so tenderly

Je ne sais pas pour vous, mais moi j'aime particulièrement écouter ces standards américains. Ca vous ensoleille n'importe quelle journée morose et quelconque ...

As nice as this version is, one cannot know or appreciate the full beauty or possibilities for this composition until one hears the haunting version of Tenderly by Randy Brooks His Orchestra, a sound that will never leave anyone who has heard it in full.
