Ooh. Forties smoky, sultry singer? I have no idea. I'm a metal head, as you well know.
The playlist you have here looks good -- a lot of Meredith Brooks. Is that a personal choice, or one demanded by the book?
Happy TT--
hehe I love Meredith Brooks! She's so angry. :-D However, she is absolutely perfect for this heroine. So I guess it's a combination of both. hehe
Oh, I can so help with this.
Fever
Near You
Little Girl Blue
I Wish I Didn't Love You So
I'll Be Seeing You (Billie Holiday's version is awesome)
Willow Weep For Me
The Bluest Kind of Blues
The Gypsy
Blue Moon
Body and Soul
Cry Me a River
Stormy Blue (again, Billie Holiday)
Smoke Gets in Your Eyes
At Last (Etta James)
Am I Blue (Billie Holiday)
He's Gone Blues (Bessie Smith)
My Old Flame (BH)
Yeah, I like Billie Holiday. I think I should stop there. I like old music and old movies.
Go to Amazon and listen to some samples by Diana Krall.
She does some old jazz songs that are really sexy.
Like: "When I Look in Your Eyes" &
"Let's Face the Music and Dance"
You need to look up the Glenn Miller songs, or some of the Big Bands.
Ditto for Dianna Krall.
The first Norah Jones CD is sort of sultry.
LOL love the list

aline
ooo
love some of those songs.
I still LOVE the mortal kombat theme song. I have the movies. And I am PROUD to say it. Although I'm still made they killed Johnny and changed actors from first movie to second.
I love avril too
Add "Stormy Weather," sung by Lena Horne. Ann has an awesome list--I was gonna say "Blue Moon" but she beat me to it. And the ultimate, "Play it, Sam. You played it for her, you can play it for me," song from Cassablanca: "As Time Goes By."
Thanks for coming to my TT!
Don't know whether she's the right era - but Nina Simone singing absolutely anything she bloody well wants too, LOL
She was the first singer to jump into my head *shrug*
Kim
"Building a Mystery" should have been the theme for my ex in college. Asshole. ;)
Thx for stopping by!
Thanks for all the suggestions! The playlist is coming along nicely!
