Billie Holiday - You Go To My Head (Jazz 'Round Midnight)
You go to my head
And you linger like a haunting refrain
And I find you spinning round in my brain
Like the bubbles in a glass of champagne
You go to my head
Like a sip of sparkling burgundy brew
And I find the very mention of you
Like the kicker in a julep or two
The thrill of the thought
That you might give a thought to my plea
Casts a spell over me
Still I say to myself "Get a hold of yourself"
Can't you see that it never can be
You go to my head
With a smile that makes my temperature rise
Like a summer with a thousand Julys
You intoxicate my soul with your eyes
Though I'm certain that this heart of mine
Hasn't a ghost of a chance in this crazy romance
You go to my head
You go to my head
Though I'm certain that this heart of mine
Hasn't a ghost of a chance in this crazy romance
You go to my head
You go to my head

Hauntingly beautiful from Billies' phrasing to the stunning arrangement!
She says it all though...
'right and wrong don't matter when you're with me sweet'

I love that she sings behind the behind a little. Frank Sinatra does that too. Jascha Heifetz sometimes does that in his music as well. It sounds absolutely beautiful. Good observation!

Such a sad song. Back in the day that's what women were expected to do when their slimy "can't-keep-it-in-their-pants" husbands cheated. Oh well, still gorgeous song. No one else can sing this quite the same. She sung slightly behind the beat which gave the songs she sung such sadness and depth. Poor Billie, she had such a hard life :(
