i remember you 

Song of the Day: i remember you, 1941, victor schertzinger; johnny mercer   #182. 

Mercer wrote these lyrics for Judy Garland just after they started a 30 year on-and-off love affair.

Yodeling versions by frank ifield 1962 and slim whitman 1966. Bjork covered the song in 1993.

Added to the With Intro project.

I uploaded the tab to Ultimate Guitar.


 

Set #8 (and Apparently #7) 

Set #8 has been added to Jaz's Jukebox, now at 120 songs. 

Apparently I neglected to post when Set #7 was added. I probably wanted to space the post out a little from the last SongOfTheDay post and then forgot about it.

The Jaz Dumoz songbook is at 179 songs. The Jaz Dumoz Other (rejects) book is at 19.
