Ella never relased "They Can't Take That Away from Me" as a single, it is on several albums, however. Gareth E Kegg (talk) 21:06, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There is a best album of 1947 listed on the besteveralbum website and this is not mentioned here. Is there a reason? I am not an expert but someone? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gmarthews (talk • contribs) 05:40, 21 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Though some years ago: This is kind of a compilation album (sources give 1947/1949/1950 as release dates), obviously with some of her songs of the 1930s. That‘s why I think it‘s not really relevant. But shouldn’t the box The Pablo Years all albums of her Pablo time were published on be included in “Boxes“? All the best from Germany --5lkdl (talk) 20:09, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"My Heart Belongs to Daddy"

What is the title of this song in which she sings this line?
When did she first sing it?

It must have been between 1930 and 1959.

Ella Fitzgerald - My Heart Belongs To Daddy.
This is sung in a good, cute mood.

According to

Published: 1939-02-17
I would like to mention that she sang the word "duty" with-out a "y" between the "d" and the "u".

2nd:
From 1954, (age: approximately 37)
as part of the studio album "Songs in a Mellow Mood".
This is sung: very slow and in a jazzy style.

missing Santa Claus

Where is Ella's 'Santa Claus Got Stuck (In My Chimney)'? Apparently [1] this suggestive song was kept hidden by her and her lawyers, to protect her reputation - but it's out and about now, and should be noted here. Onanoff (talk) 17:03, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
