My Foolish Heart - Margaret Whiting - Love songs 1949
Margaret Whiting sings My Foolish Heart in the romantic 1940s style. This songbook standard was written by Victor Young (1949) for a movie of the same name, starring Susan Hayward and Dana Andrews. The song was nominated for an Oscar.
Bing Crosby, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra... all the singing legends have recorded My Foolish Heart. It was Sinatra's very last single, recorded in 1988.
The Margaret Whiting version was recorded in 1950. It's a good example of style, tempo and expression of the time.
A great song, ready for revival by today's singers.
