Songs about Loneliness..... — Page 2

Lonely House STREET SCENE 
Night Song  GOLDEN BOY  
By Myself  BETWEEN THE DEVIL/THE BANDWAGON 
 

Lonely House from Weill's opera "Street Scene"

Lover Come Back to Me from the Romberg operetta "The New Moon"

"Everybody’s Got a Home But Me"

Nice selection of one of the neglected songs from an R&H flop.

"Little Girl Blue" Rodgers and Hart, 1935, from the musical Jumbo

Nancy Sinatra, who has a weekly show on the Sirius channel "Siriusly Sinatra" likes to claim that her father kept many Rodgers and Hart songs from being lost and forgotten. In this one case it seems like she has a point. Written in 1935, Wikipedia lists 44 artists who have covered the song, with only one dated before 1954 when Sinatra covered it on one of his Capitol albums.

Fittingly, from her 1957 album "Alone"

Lonely Town - On The Town

Lonely Town Pas De Deux - On The Town

Lonely Town Choral - On The Town

i still recall this section bringing me to tears at the last revival.
