La pianista y cantante norteamericana Blossom Dearie, esposa del músico de jazz belga Bobby Jaspar (ver la entrada anterior), nos dejó unas interpretaciones personales que han sobrevivido al tiempo manteniéndose "modernas", como esta preciosa I Walk A little Faster, grabada en 1957, en uno de sus discos más completos. La acompañaban el bajista Ray Brown, el batería Jo Jones y el guitarrista Herb Ellis, un gran grupo para un disco que hacía de la sencillez su virtud principal. ¡Disfrútalo!
I Walk a Little Faster (Carolyn Leigh / Cy Coleman)
Pretending that we'll meet
Each time I turn a corner
I walk a little faster
Pretending life is sweet
'Cause love's around the corner
I walk a little faster
Can't begin to see my future shine as yet
No sign as yet
You're mine as yet
Rushing to a face I can't define as yet
Keep bumping into walls
Taking lots of falls
And even though I meet
'Round each and every corner
With nothing but disaster
I set my chin a little higher
I hope a little longer
Build a little stronger castle in the air
And thinking you'll be there
I walk a little faster
Can't begin to see my future shine as yet
No sign as yet
You're mine as yet
Rushing to a face I can't define as yet
Keep bumping into walls
And taking lots of falls
But even though I meet
'round each and every corner
With nothing but disaster
I set my chin a little higher
And I hope a little longer
I build a little stronger castle in the air
And thinking you'll be there
I walk a little faster
