Unfortunately I’ve been getting inundated with spam comments from bots lately. So I sadly announce that I have had to add captcha to the comment form on “The Artist’s Notebook”. So if you are one of the few that leave comments on the website you will have to go through something like this:
There are few things I hate more than CAPTCHA, but this is where we are at. Sorry for any inconvenience.
You sigh, the song begins You speak and I hear violins It’s magic The stars desert the skies And rush to nestle in your eyes It’s magic
Without a golden wand Or mystic charms, Fantastic things begin When I am in your arms
When we walk hand in hand The world becomes a wonderland It’s magic How else can I explain Those rainbows when there is no rain It’s magic
Why do I tell myself These things that happen are all really true When in my heart I know The magic is my love for you It’s magic It’s magic Why do I tell myself These things that happen are all really true When in my heart I know The magic is my love for you
Songwriters: Jule Styne & Sammy Cahn
A little bit about this song:
“It’s Magic” is a popular song written by Jule Styne, with lyrics by Sammy Cahn, published in 1947. They wrote the song for Doris Day in her Warner Brothers film debut, Romance on the High Seas (retitled It’s Magic in the United Kingdom, after the song). In the autumn of 1948 Vic Damone, Tony Martin, Dick Haymes, Gordon MacRae and Sarah Vaughan all charted on Billboard magazine charts with versions of the song, but none as successfully as Day’s recording. “It’s Magic” received an Academy Award nomination for Best Song, but in March 1949 lost to “Buttons and Bows” by Jay Livingston and Ray Evans.

I picked this song because it was instrumental in a recent episode of THE BEAR. If you aren’t watching that show, you are doing television wrong.
But Thursdays are for flowers. It is time once again for another collection of tulip images from my trip to Pella.
Here are the flowertography images:
I still have a ton of pictures from my trip to Pella left to share.
