| Description: |
French singer-songwriter Charles Aznavour originally wrote and recorded this in 1964 as "Hier Encore," or "Only Yesterday." Country singer Roy Clark, who had just started his long-running gig as the co-host of Hee Haw, covered the song in 1969 and landed it in the Top 10 on the country chart. Clark's additional spoken-word intro leads into a somber recollection of a wasted youth that led to a lonely adulthood: I've tried to emulate those feelings and hope you enjoy my rendition.
This song has been performed and recorded by many international stars such as Bing Crosby, Shirley Bassey, Dusty Springfield, Roy Clark, Mel Torme, Jack Jones, Lena Horne, Andy Williams, Jimmy Durante,[4] Bobby Bare, Al Martino, The Peanuts, Glen Campbell, Julio Iglesias, Eddy Mitchell, Dean Reed,[5] Johnny Mathis, Marc Almond, Patricia Kaas, Matt Monro, Lena Martell, Nora Aunor, etc., and an uptempo version by Blossom Dearie. More than 90 versions of the song were recorded before 1972.
