KARAOKE SCENE MAGAZINE ONLINE! - DonnWeinberg performs Once Upon A Time on Karaoke Showcase - Written in 1962 by Charles Strouse (music) and Lee Adams (lyrics), this song first appeared in the musical, "All American." Sinatra recorded the song in 1965. I'm singing over the original 1965 recording, with vocal elimination (MTU's Vogone program) and a 2-step digital key reduction (MTU's Keyrite program). This is a beautifully contemplative song, looking back to youthful days, and the instrumentation is gorgeous and lush. I hope you enjoy it. -- Donn

DEE I hope you don't mind me just giving my compliments honey- I don't 'critique' anyone's works. Especially yours. I remember my dad singing this to me when I was a little one, and I would sit on his lap and he looked into my eyes and sang, and I'll never forget my life, I smiled as he sang to his one and only daughter (had three older brothers and I was his baby gal), and I personally want to thank you DONN for the beautiful memories this has given me tonight. Absolutely gorgeous my friend :) Love, DEE xox
Reply: Thanks so much, Dee. The songs we heard as children bring back powerful memories as we get older, for sure.

JA.MARTINEZ Hi Donn, A thoroughly enjoyeable listen, my friend. The one thing that I would add since you've asked for a critical assessment of this performance is to work on injecting some degree of Sinatra's signature "phrasing/timing techniques" into your sings (especially, since you do so many Sinatra songs). When I sing a Sinatra song that point remains front and center in my mind as I deliver each verse. Hope you're OK with this input, as I mean no disrespect - you've got an awesome voice, which seems ideal for these type songs. Your firend, John
Reply: Thanks, John. I appreciate your willingness to comment and your comment itself.

Footelady Happy to see your safe return to SS, Donn. You surely chose a real beauty to sing for us. I see what you meant about the backing, top shelf. Your voice wove the ballad's lovely lyric story. Loved it. Irene
Reply: Thanks, Irene.

Doenjoy Hi Donn...good to see SS is back. I know this one, am most inpressed with the beauty of those lyrics. A wonderful vocal presentation. And, you're a master of vocal elimination, wish I had that skill. Cheers! Frank
Reply: Thanks, Frank.
