Rosemary Clooney Sing "They Can't Take That Away From Me"

Posted about 1 year ago


Master lyricist Ira Gershwin and his composer brother George Gershwin wrote "They Can't Take This Away From Me" for the 1937 musical film "Shall We Dance" starring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. The combined efforts of John Oddo and Matt Catingub give this beautiful song an appropriately nostalgic feel with a very eloquent performance from Rosemary Clooney, the very definition of the word of eloquence. The instrumental break swings out mightily yet never drowns out Clooney.

    Beautiful singing, song and arrangement.  She kept her voice much longer than most other singers.
