This song is an American classic written by Rodgers & Hart in 1940. I played all the instruments and Rosie sang the song for me. She did an amazing job!. I recorded it over 5 years ago so my equipment wasn't great then and my playing wasn't that great either but Rosie really breathed new life into it! Go visit her channel on YouTube, you won't be disappointed! Here the link to Rosie's channel - https://on.soundcloud.com/hyJW6
My wonderful wife Ana played the piano in the intro. I posted an instrumental rendition on SoundCloud with all electric guitars as well. The song that you hear during the end credits is one of my latest songs called "Grateful" written for a dear friend and Charlie will be singing that one soon. I know this is not my best work but it is a hard song to play and sing! Lady Gaga and Ella Fitzgerald have done awesome covers of it. If you want to see Rita Hayworth lip-sync to it watch the movie "Pal Joey" with Frank Sinatra, he also sings several Rodgers & Hart tunes in the film. The video took me a while to put together and it follows the song pretty well, I recently had to remix everything for this new release. I hope everyone enjoys it. It's a Blast from the Past!

“BEWITCHED, BOTHERED, & BEWILDERED”
HE'S A FOOL AND DON'T I KNOW IT,
BUT A FOOL CAN HAVE HIS CHARMS,
I'M IN LOVE AND DON'T I SHOW IT,
LIKE A BABE IN ARMS,
LOVE'S THE SAME OLD SAD SENSATION,
LATELY I'VE NOT SLEPT A WINK,
SINCE THIS HALF-PINT IMITATION,
PUT ME ON THE BLINK,
I'M WILD AGAIN, BEGUILED AGAIN,
A SIMPERING, WHIMPERING CHILD AGAIN,
BEWITCHED, BOTHERED, AND BEWILDERED AM I,
I COULDN'T SLEEP, AND WOULDN'T SLEEP,
WHEN LOVE CAME AND TOLD ME I SHOULDN'T SLEEP,
BEWITCHED, BOTHERED, AND BEWILDERED AM I,
LOST MY HEART, BUT WHAT OF IT?
HE IS COLD, I AGREE,
HE CAN LAUGH, BUT I LOVE IT,
ALTHOUGH THE LAUGH'S ON ME,
I'LL SING TO HIM, EACH SPRING TO HIM,
AND LONG FOR THE DAY WHEN I'LL CLING TO HIM,
BEWITCHED, BOTHERED, AND BEWILDERED AM I,
LOST MY HEART, BUT WHAT OF IT?
HE IS COLD, I AGREE,
HE CAN LAUGH, BUT I LOVE IT,
ALTHOUGH THE LAUGH'S ON ME,
I'LL SING TO HIM, EACH SPRING TO HIM,
AND LONG FOR THE DAY WHEN I'LL CLING TO HIM,
BEWITCHED, BOTHERED, AND BEWILDERED AM I.
