Posted July 10, 200619 yr Thanks to findingout for er... finding these out :P IF I RULED THE WORLD Tony Bennett Words by Leslie Bricusse/Music by Cyril Ornadel If I ruled the world, ev'ry day would be the first day of spring Every heart would have a new song to sing And we'd sing of the joy every morning would bring If I ruled the world, ev'ry man would be as free as a bird, Ev'ry voice would be a voice to be heard Take my word we would treasure each day that occurred My world would be a beautiful place Where we would weave such wonderful dreams My world would wear a smile on its face Like the man in the moon has when the moon beams If I ruled the world every man would say the world was his friend There'd be happiness that no man coud end No my friend, not if I ruled the world Every head would be held up high There'd be sunshine in everyone's sky If the day ever dawned when I ruled the world
July 10, 200619 yr Author It's very ...... american! How come Delta's name isn't there? As she didn't write it, I think. Isn't it a cover?

July 11, 200619 yr Goodrem's star turn 11jul06 DELTA Goodrem is making herself known to the right people. As she tries to break into the American market, entertainer Tony Bennett has commandeered the young starlet to contribute to his all-star duets album. Bono, Elton John, George Michael, k.d. lang, Sting and Billy Joel have also recorded tracks. Bennett has chosen to record the song If I Ruled the World with Goodrem, who will then fly home to spend time with family and work on her album. :) Edited July 11, 200619 yr by visualisedelta
July 12, 200619 yr It's a standard. Tony's original versions on "The Essential Tony Bennett" CD2 track 2. Sarah Vaughan (jazz Diva) also had a hit with it. The motivation behind the album is duet versions of songs that shaped Tony Bennett's career. So Delta was hardly likely to be asked to come up with a new song. Bennett's best known songs are "I left my heart in San Francisco" and "Rags to Riches". The duet Delta should have sung with Tony is "Just in time", the first line is- "I was lying, comfortably, face-down in the gutter" Just imagine that.lol Edited July 12, 200619 yr by findingout
