Happy New Year’s Greetings & June in January #BoTB showdown

2017-hny-message

Hello, Kittens & Dawgs! Here it is another January. A brand new year for a fresh beginning. With the cold winds blowing I thought it nice to think about warm weather…it’s June in January because I’m in love.  Yep, I’m in love with the same feller for a very long time.  From the 1934 movie, “Here Is My Heart”, Bing Crosby first performed June in January (song reference only).

June in January

Lyricists: Leo Robin & Ralph Rainger

It’s June in January
Because I’m in love
It always is spring in my heart
With you in my arms

The snow is just white blossoms
That fall from above
And here is the reason, my dear
Your magical charms

The night is cold
The trees are bare
But I can feel the scent of roses in the air
It’s June in January
Because I’m in love
But only because I’m in love with you

But I can feel the scent of roses in the air
It’s June in January
Because I’m in love
But only because I’m in love with you

There was only been a couple of dozen covers of Crosby’s original.  I found two I rather liked and it’s gonna be a hard pick for me.  How about you?

Contender #1, I present the soft, seductive sound of a real Calendar Girl, Julie London.

Contender # 2 is the classic smooth vocals of a very likable fellow, Dean Martin.

I loved Dean-O’s variety shows from the 70s and do recognize Julie London from the 70s TV series, Emergency?

Whose touch did you like, the girl or the boy’s… vocally speaking of course?

Ok, here’s the drill. Voting is open to everyone visiting. There is NO wrong vote, except if you DON’T vote. You can start by telling me in comments which artist you like best and why (optional).

Which artist is your favorite, Julie or Dean-O?

The fun continues with more epic battles underway and I invite you to visit the official manager of BoTB, Stephen for the update list of players.   I’ll share the results of this battle in my January 9th Mewsic Moves Me post. Speaking of which, I hope you’ll decide to dance with me and Monday’s Music Mewsic Moves Me crew.

This is Curious as a Cathy saying, “Happy New Year!” and just let me saying I’m looking forward to another marvelous year with you my good friends! 😉
