He's English! Watch the eyes.

  1. Thanks
    and, you know, I wouldn't be at all surprised if that's what I sound like when I speak. He certainly sings in my key.

  2. My first thought was, "It's so you!" and how right I was.

  3. I love Al Bowly! Here he is in 1934 with Ray Noble's Orchestra singing The Very Thought of You.
    I have no idea what the scenes from The Phantom of the Opera have to do with the song.

  4. Counterlight, thanks for the video. I don't get the Phantom business, either. I love Al Bowlly, too, although I must say that the hand gestures and the eye-batting crack me up. Your recording is from the year of my birth.
