Other arms reach out to me Other eyes smile tenderly Still in peaceful dreams I see The road leads back to you. 𝐆𝐄𝐎𝐑𝐆𝐈𝐀 𝐎𝐍 𝐌𝐘 𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐃 / Ray Charles

Despite age the two of you bustle about; committing your duties be it work or another passion. Perhaps either of you transverse the cosmos. However, when Twilight's wings gingerly take you under its folds, the two of you melt into one like candle wax dripping down its holder. No matter what path each of you treads- you are bound no matter the state. Thus, under the duvet covers and the unspoken lullabies of the night, he presses kisses on your wrinkled eyes like gemstones while slowly caressing your furrowed hand with a gentleness only matched by the lightness of a feather and the warmth of a beating heart. It is instinctive like blinking, like drawing air into the lungs. Rest now in silence for neither of you needed to say a word, another day will come and nights of blossoming devotion will echo into eternity.

Just one look at you My heart grew tipsy in me You and you alone Bring out the Gypsy in me I love all the many charms about you Above all, I want my arms about you 𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐑𝐀𝐂𝐄𝐀𝐁𝐋𝐄 𝐘𝐎𝐔 / Judy Garland

Your limbs might not take you far now, but he'll twirl you in the air like a star and tease you until your cheeks ache from laughter. The glimmer and shine of that first date still trails behind the two of you: stardust in the wind, wings that seldom break. You two still share that hidden kiss in public and search for treasures amongst a sea of rust. Giddy and unfettered, the two of you are like birds spinning in the air; chasing each other in fits of uncontrolled laughter. Blush still brushing against your sagging cheeks and the tipsyness of a night still young, his own heart enthralled as the first time he met you. The throng can stare if they want; asking why not sit down? Would you like some help? That's fine, he'll still banter and pursue adoration as if it's not already tucked in his arms. Because despite his gradually wilting eyes and worn-out knees, he'll still bow down and press his head against your stomach, whispering, "mine."

At last My love has come along My lonely days are over And life is like a song 𝐀𝐓 𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐓 / Etta James

The two of you have mellowed over the years, lost some hair and found comfort in blue skies, the pit pat of rain and sand between your toes. Perhaps the two of you find a house in the countryside or build a home on a distant planet found in cup boards and the warmth of an oven. Perhaps you settle under the blanket of the universe; allowing your eyes to trace the sun inching down the walls of your shared home. The two of you spend your days lying languidly on the couch, days drifting into melodies spent well and arms entangled as one. He never would've thought that his heart could slow and his soul mellow like a distant breeze. His eyes drifted towards your figure, a pleasant smile reaching his lips.

me, making any playlist: it is very thematically important that judy garland and carly rae jepsen are both on this. I don't make the rules

also me: you know it's okay to just like judy garland and carly rae jepsen and they don't have to be objectively the most universally applicable artists to choose for fandom playlists, right?

me: shush. now... where does this ella fitzgerald song fit in the general narrative I'm constructing here? because obviously I need ella on here

also me: yeah, no, obviously. I think right after 'come rain or come shine' is pretty good

me: my god, we've done it again

Song of the Day - “Come Rain or Come Shine”

Today is the birthday of this fantastic song.

On March 30th, 1946, the Broadway show “St. Louis Woman” opened.

The musical’s tunes were written by Harold Arlen and Johnny Mercer and the gem of the bunch was “Come Rain or Come Shine”.

In the show, this song was delivered by Ruby Hill and Harold Nicholas, sung as a duet.

The musical didn’t do that great, but this song rose up and became one of the most popular and most-recorded jazz standards of the era…

My dad had a big swing jazz band, and for a while, the lead singer was Jane Barbe, who is legendary for also being the voice that told you what time it was …”… at the tone, the time will be…”

I would sit in on all of the rehearsals and any recording sessions in the studio, and I idolized Jane like mad… so I learned this song at age five and tried to belt it out in my room the way Jane could…

Of the hundreds of covers, I suppose, after Jane with my dad and his band, Billie Holiday would get my vote as best.

Ray Charles is pretty phenomenal with this song too.

I think Judy Garland would’ve owned this one but for having the most god-awful arrangement of it that anyone could ever devise - with really fast bongo drums…

Dinah Washington is right up there.

Just a gorgeous tune....

Your Kurt art is amazing. And i want to read your clothing analysis. Plus your list of songs for him!

Aww thank you so much! Yeah, the Kurt Fashion took over my life while I procrastinated school, but it was so fun.

As to the songs, some are specific to plots of fic I started writing, but some are ones I just think would suit his voice well, esp with a jazzier style (tbh anything sang by Judy Garland lol). I'll put the list under the cut bc it's a bit long oops

These are basically all Garland except the first:

Lollipops and Roses

Mr. Monotony (there is a deleted clip of Will and Sue doing this but who cares, Kurt would rock it)

The Man that got away

I Ain't Got Nobody

Down With Love

Old Devil Moon

Come Rain or Come Shine

Puttin on the ritz

My Intuition

Lose that Long Face

And then Broadway:

Funny Honey (from Cabaret, he'd be so good at that style)

Beggin (not really Broadway, but I saw Jersey Boys first so...)

If I Only Had a Heart (imagine him singing this in his silver suit... esp later seasons when he's mastered bottling his emotions... oof)

Happy to Keep His Dinner Warm (idk, this gives me late s5 Kurt vibes when all his friends were doing stuff and he felt behind)

Any Orpheus song from Hadestown (tbh think he'd be great in this role, once he's on Broadway)

Also think he'd do great as Jean-Michel in La Cage aux Folles, would have loved that

What's the Use of Wonderin (from Carousel)

Finishing the Hat (Sunday in the Park with George, I feel like he'd perform it well)

There's others I'm def forgetting... wish he sang more Britney and Gaga obvs... but yeah. Basically wish he got to sing more (and better? bc sometimes they gave him songs that didn't show off his talent as much as they could've)

JUDY GARLAND: 'COME RAIN OR COME SHINE'. WAS SHE LIKE THIS AT CARNEGIE HALL?

fav comments:

-Just imagine if the Carnegie Hall concert was recorded full-out on videotape like this. And this arrangement of "Come Rain.." is, at the very least, ambitious: a much faster tempo, aggressive brass and bongos, etc. And Judy doesn't just rise to the occasion, she attacks. By the 3rd minute of the song she's in full bloom: using the arms, stabbing the air for emphasis on certain notes, and on the last "shiiiiine," she surprises even herself. A stunning performance.

-She's so in command, and at home there. And her camera technique is phenomenal. Plus, she's so open to her surroundings, and so completely present, that as a viewer I get that thrilling feeling that anything could happen up there.

-This was someone who was 100% on top of her game...and then for this song notched it up to 300%.....I really don't think she thought she would be this good.  She nailed that last note....one of those rare occurences where you're already "that good," but your voice just catches that wave and rides to a crescendo that staggers....

-Just look at the shear determination in her face at 3:05 She was channeling something deep, very deep to be able to finish the song as she did.  I absolutely love the look of shock in her face as she says "oh my goodness" as if she were watching it, in awe, along with us.  Never has there been anyone better and there never will.
