Cry Me a River by Julie London

“5 years or more back from now, I watched "V for Vendetta". The best reminder I have of it isn't even the 'Ideas are bulletproof' quote, It's this beautiful, elegant and smooth version to "Cry me a river", that V also used to listen over and over again...”

5 years or more back from now, I watched "V for Vendetta". The best reminder I have of it isn't even the 'Ideas are bulletproof' quote, It's this beautiful, elegant and smooth version to "Cry me a river", that V also used to listen over and over again...

"Told me you were through with me and now you say you love me. Well, just to prove you do, Come on and cry me a river, cry me a river I cried a river over you..."

The "love is too plebeian" line kills me every single time.

When I was a young child (remember black and white television?), one of my favorite shows was "Emergency" with my hero "Dixie" (female hero's,( true heros) in those days were few and far between, I had Dixie and Uhura.) I grew up wanting to be a nurse ( I am, thank you Julie) and dreamed of space. In my early twenties I found out that not only did Dixie act, she is one hell of a singer. She, in my humble opinion, has no equal in this song (sorry Ella, I love you). Her smoky, sensual voice, is perfect for any evening by the fire or sitting on the deck, glass of wine hand; she just sets the tone with her "come hither voice". I posted an interview from Life Magazine with her, such a humble, regal women., Also check out the movie "The Girl can't Help it" for her singing this song http://www.nytimes.com/2001/01/07/magazine/the-lives-they-lived-01-07-01-julie-london-b-1926-the-echo-chamber.html   23

Was introduced to this song many years ago when I was working as a roadie on a Marie Wilson tour - keep coming back to it when it's chill out time.   2
