Golden Earrings - Single

by Deanne Matley

/

about

Barbette Records is excited to announce its third release of 2021. Deanne Matley's Upcoming Newest Single. "Golden Earrings" is a classic tune from 1947 written by Victor Young (music) and Ray Evans/Jay Livingston (lyrics).  

Initially performed by Murvyn Vye in the 1947 romantic spy film of the same name, "Golden Earrings" tells the story of the jewelry's mystical qualities. This haunting Gypsy Jazz song claims that if you wear golden earrings, love will come to you. The song has been covered by Great Artists such as Peggy Lee (who scored a hit in 1947), Bobby Darin (1964) and even Willie Nelson (1983).

Montreal legend George Doxas recorded Deanne's original arrangement at Boutique de Son, Montreal, QC with Andrea Petrity on piano, Adrian Vedady on upright bass, and Jim Doxas on drums. With a hint of “Radar Love,” this tune is seductive, swings hard, and is sure to cast a spell of desire on its listeners.

lyrics

There's a story the gypsies know is true
That when your love wears golden earrings,
He belongs to you.

An old love story that's known to very few,
But if you wear those golden earrings,
Love will come to you.

By the burning fire, they will glow with ev'ry coal.
You will hear desire whisper low inside your soul.

So be my gypsy;
Make love your guiding light,
And let this pair of golden earrings
Cast their spell tonight.
