Night And Day - Cole Porter

- Like the beat beat beat of the tom-tom
When the jungle shadows fall
Like the tick tick tock of the stately clock
As it stands against the wall
Like the drip drip drip of the raindrops
When the summer shower is through
So a voice within me keeps repeating
You, you, you
Night and day, you are the one
Only you beneath the moon or under the sun
Whether near to me, or far
It's no matter darling where you are
I think of you
Day and night, night and day, why is it so
That this longing for you follows wherever I go
In the roaring traffic's boom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you
Day and night, night and day
Under the hide of me
There's an oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me
And this torment won't be through
Until you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night, night and day
by Cole Porter
This shouldn't matter one way or the other, however I will state it anyway. I am a 60 year old African American male born and reared in Brooklyn New York my entire life to date. And this by far is one of my favorite songs of all time. And I'm by no stretch of the imagination bougie. But I been hearing different versions of this song in an assortment of movies since I was very, very young and it just does something for me. It's a profoundly beautiful song to me and it hits the heart strings. Mr. Porter I don't know anything about his politics or his views on race relations. But I do know this he was one hell of a song writer, one of the best.
I rate him as *the* best songwriter. And I'm a peely-wally sexygenarian Scotsman with a penchant for post-punk! 😺
well said, especially 'profoundly beautiful '
Music ,food,sports ,religion exist for everyone rrgardless of race or nationality
He truly was a songwriter at a time when most people either wrote lyrics or music. This guy wrote both. He’s pretty amazing
@wheresyaya6792 Thank you. I'm sorry for the late response 😁 Yes some songs just touch your soul. And can even make a demon(not me, 😆) feel all warm and tingly inside. Song like Billy Joel and Barry White's, Love you just the way you are. And the Four Tops I believe In you and me. Those songs rip open my big old heart and turn me inside out. Into undulating waves of emotion that I savior the whole day from the time I first played them. And just like Night and Day puts me to sleep with a deep, calm that lasts me the entire night through. Until I start once again at the first light of the next day 😆.
This song tells its age beautifully. Its emotion still intact, and yet so old. It speaks in expressions long gone. It comes from another time, another mind. It barely fits in todays world and that makes it somewhat eerie, but beautiful.
Yes, you've described the haunting beauty of it, of the almost eerie yet nostalgically comfortable feeling it evokes --a feeling of yearning and need and eternal attachment. Until I read your comment, I struggled to articulate the emotions it stirs. Well said!
Perfect description
One of the most beautiful songs of all time.
Amen to that !!
absolutely
Cole was such a legendary talent
This song is better then most songs today. It's really haunting and beautiful
bruh
Than*
The best song of Cole Porter for eternity...When I see Fred Astaire dancing with Ginger Rogers it's a dream...a masterpiece.
❤
People never did "write like this" . Porter was a genius, and unique.
This is clearly rag inspired, a bit more on the waltz side. This sound is actually quite common if you're familiar with the time
Kyle Coleman he was apparently inspired to write this song after visiting the Tomb of Galla Placidia in Ravenna
He sure as hell was!!
@Joseph Pattison just like this.
You are correct in 'People never did "write like this" '. He was unique as well. However, there were other musicians of the era just as talented and unique. The Gershwin brothers, for instance. Scott Joplin, for another. My memory is failing me right now, but there are others.
this song is ALWAYS rambling around in my head.. a tiny piece here and a little piece over there. It's like a puzzle and once in a while it comes to me all put together and I begin singing it. Thank you Mr. Porter.
O mesmo comigo!
Exactly..well said 👏👏👏
So beautifully said❣️
pois é .. Cole Porter chega à cabeça de todos , é só uma questão tempo ..
Speaking my mind
For decades now, I"ve listened to Little River Band's song, Reminiscing, and in the chorus, it talks about how they 'danced across the room' to "those Porter tunes..." with "Night and Day" sung by backing vocals. So it only took me about 40 years to finally play Night and Day by Cole Porter. Beautiful song. Loved it. Harkens back to a far better time.
Me too
That’s why I’m here too😊
Now that you mention it, took me about 40 years too.
lol same here! I finally had to find out what that part of the song meant and here I am. 😊
Ditto for me. I’ve been listening to LRB Reminiscing for decades and finally heard this Night and Day song.
Extremely haunting chords. Wow, I love it.
This guy is underappreciated, look at how many iconic song he has wrote
Underappreciated by whom?
I think he is very much appreciated!
He's very much appreciated!!! Hundreds and hundreds of covers of his songs. He's considered to be one of the greatest song writers of all times. He's simply adored.
Cole Porter underrated? I think he is universally appreciated and well known!?!?!?
He is very well appreciated for his talent. What is relatively unknown is his private struggle against his bone diseases for 20+ years of his life until his death.
makes me think of Mum & Dad makes me cry Good cry
F de fuerza
Therefore i like this Kind of melodys...to remember the best times in your life and you are feeling comfortable...🥰🥰🥰

(: "S" for "Strength" ... ☺
Can’t imagine be 70 and spouting rap 😂😂😂
My gram and great aunt.Also makes me cry but STILL keep listening .♡♡♡
Cole Porter was a genius songwriter. I am haunted by his music. This one is THE TOP!
RUclips áre the onne
This song will forever hold a special place in the music world
Incomparably wonderful. The vocalist is Fred Astaire.
Thank you! I was like, well, I guess he does sing.
Are you sure? I can't find this version anywhere else but here. On Spotify, the cole porter versions don't sound like this voice
This song was written in one of the stately mansions in Newport, Rhode Island. I sat in that room a couple of years ago, trying to conjure up the spirit of Cole Porter. What a wonderful experience!!
He was a musical genus and I love the music was arranged in that time.
+DennyDreadBassMan *genius
I also love this old record. Why is it so?
Cole Porter wrote it and can whowver he wands singing. Its awesome from Bing to U2 he created a classic
I have found over the years that the arrangement makes all the difference to a song.
THIS is my favorite version of this great song. Thank you!
I adore this song so much.
Night and day, you are the one
Only you beneath the moon and under the sun
Whether near me or far
It's no matter, darling, where you are
I think of you night and day, day and night
Why is it so that this longing for you
Follows wherever I go?
In the roaring traffic's boom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you night and day
Night and day, under the hide of me
There's an, oh, such a hungry yearning
Burning inside of me
And its torment won't be through
'Til you spent my life making love to you
Night and day, day and night
Night and day, under the hide of me
There's an, oh, such a hungry yearning
Burning inside of me
And its torment won't be through
'Til you let me spent my life making love to you
Day and night, night and day
In the roaring traffic's boom, in the silence of my lonely room I think of you night and day.....Beautiful....just so beautiful....
I hear ya very nice and poetic
Beautiful music. Way before my time, but Cole Porter was a genius. What more can I say.
I'm here after watching The Gay Divorce yesterday in lockdown. Have been catching up with the classics in the afternoon 👍🏼😊
The Gay Divorcee is so fabulous. The first dance sequence between Astaire and Rogers is so ... breath-taking. Ginger looks likes she is literally orgasming. Maybe she was.
I know I was.
The brilliant Cole Porter. A beautiful song. X🌹
" And that Porter tune...
Night and Day....
Made us dance across the room"
-Little River Band
Love that song too! It’s called “Reminiscing “.
Just introduced my granddaughter to this song and she gets it! An ole soul full of love 💕 genuine love.
Like the beat, beat, beat of the tom tom
When the jungle shadows fall
Like the tick, tick, tock of the stately clock
As it stands against the wall
Like the drip, drip drip of the rain drops
When the summer showers through
A voice within me keeps repeating
You, you, you
Night and day you are the one
Only you beneath the moon or under the sun
Whether near to me or far it's no matter darling
Where you are
I think of you
Day and night, night and day
Why is it so that this longing for you
Follows where ever I go
In the roaring traffic's boom, in the silence of my lonely room
I think of you
Night and day, day and night
Under the hide of me, there's an oh such a hungry yearning
Inside of me
And this torment wont be through
Till you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night, night and day

'Only you beneath the moon and under the sun, whether near to me or far, it's no matter darling where you are, I think of you night and day. Day and night, why is it so? That this longer for you follows where ever I go?' Aaaaah, so romantic. I love this song. And in The Gay Divorcee, Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers dancing to this was absolutely sensual. :D
Anything Goes, Night & Day and Love for Sale are absolutely brilliant pieces.
this longing for you
Heatherjc13 Yes, I realize this is Longing for You. I was simply pointing out that names of Cole Porter's, and that they too, are classics. : )
this is so much better than Sinatra's version or any other. It's FABULOUS!
My son, the physicist, sang Night and Day at his wedding 24 years ago. He blew them away. I was knocked out.
Who talks like this about their son - “My son, the physicist…..” LOL
@@gone.golfing A proud and appreciative father dear Earnest.
@@garymcdonald My son, the porn star, makes me very proud as well. And no A in my name - Ernest, not Earnest.
You're bragging, ;)
I'd be blown away if someone sang this to me! 😍
An absolute genius...not many as good as Cole Porter
I listened to the F. Sinatra version for years. Heard this tonight. love it!
It was suggested that we (CP) fans and researchers listen to this. I immediately got chills. I have been looking for this song ever since early last yr. I forget about it time to time bc I’m sure I could’ve found it. I heard it on a British comedy that I love “Are you being Served”
Wow this song is absolutely perfect and so was he. His big beautiful eyes 😍 I am in disbelief we weren’t taught about Cole a porter in school I mean we only live in the state he was born and raised in. Although we never stopped in Peru for anything other than gas and food. I am going to try to find his childhood home (if it’s still standing) when I go home again. Just wow
Beautiful song and danced by Fred and Ginger is like heaven. Porter is a genius
Makes me want to have lived in that era.
R MCK Me too 👍🏻
@@fredlopez7169 Me as well, if I was rich and healthy.
R MCK not sure everyone had toilet paper in the 30's
@@nicknick1974 no just News paper, if you are lucky
ChatNoir13th In the shithouse on the farm we only had a Sears and Robuck catalog, couldn’t afford toilet paper, if out in the woods, always just used leaves....
The most wonderful love song ever written
Ñ sabia q era regravação pelo U2!!! Uhuuuuuuu
This is way beyond my 26 years, but I have to say, I like this song.
That's because you are a genius , long life and prosperity , I really mean it blessing always . Peace
What an incredible talent he possessed, I never tye of his masterpieces.
There surely can't be a better male voice version than Cole Porter. Fabulous.
Astaire here
This song has been on repeat in my head lately and I have NO idea why!
This track alone seems to sum-up all the 1930's
ELE ADOROU AS LUZES DA NOITE DA BAÍA DE GUANABARA ...
I just love everything Cole Porter did musically speaking!
Earnest Jones no it's not lol
Earnest Jones this is a pop song lol
No, it isn't. It may have been recorded by some 'pop' artists in a 'pop' style, but it is closer to the 'swing band' type of music.
Sandra Cid yes
why what else did he do?
Cole Porter era un eterno romàntico
who is listening to this in the 20's, like!
new 20s baby, we here now, let's bring back some class
Welcome back to the roarin 20s!
2020s
precisely
2020 in my 20's
My favorite of all of Cole Porter's songs. Night and Day, in my view, personifies a romantic side to Porter's music with his usual sense of wit and phrasing. And the melody is something to behold, as well. It was lighter than air, so to speak. Thanks for posting this.
"In the roaring traffic's boom, in the silence of my empty room, I think of you..."
this shit SLAPS
A música mais linda de todos os tempos
Does not sound like Fred Astaire in the movie. Is this the actual voice of Porter himself? Don't think so, but these singers should always, always be identified in these posts, regardless. Also give the year and the recording label, if any, and WHERE it was recorded. It's all basic history stuff and very important for researchers and those who are listening today.
they dont write songs like this nowadays
people just don't write like this anymore .. what a lyric!
'A Rainy Day In New York' anyone?
Loved that movie!!! And the music of that movie
my inspiration as a rapper. love the placement of words
one of the most sophisticated composers of our time... I have a CD of Cole Porter actually singing his own compositions..pretty funny
Symbolically entrancing, especially Porter!
Love this song!
What a beautiful song.
Wachu know bout' this here young buck?
tonydelpilar great music is eternal.
Pasan los años aun me sigue gustando gracias cool porter
Eu amo esse disco. Escutarei até morrer.
I was at a wedding last year, and to my surprise the bride and groom played Night and Day. I immediately got my fiance up to dance. I honestly felt it was our song too. Also I have a DVD of Cole Porter. I'm going to play it all night long. An absolute genius. Xx♥️
Beautyfull!!
Love the feeling of these Words & Music !
care to join me in my suit
Ele era demais! Mas impossível não lembrar desta música cantada e dançada por Fred Astaire acompanhado de Ginger Rogers: : eles eram fantáticos!!!
Timeless beauty & style
Obviously, it is the great Fred Astaire singing, but you have it labeled as if it was Cole Porter singing.
K
Thumbs up, but give 'em a break here. At least they made clear who's the lyricist: the great Cole Porter ;-)
Thank you, Luke. This was the first recording of the song that I had ever heard. It was several years ago on the radio, and I didn't know who the singer was until I stumbled on this RUclips page today. Have had to rely on Sinatra since then until now. No offense to Frank, but I like Astaire's rendition much better.
This IS Cole Porter singing and NOT Fred Astaire!
It's written by Cole porter and sung by Fred Astaire
I lived in Lisbon, Portugal, in the 60's. There was a self-service restaurant ( not far from the American Embassy ) called "NIGHT & DAY". Their adds on the Radio always played this great song. I have admired COLE PORTER ever since.. 💖
You were so lucky to live in Lisbon in the 60's. What a wonderful place it was then. My parents took my sister and me camping by road from England to stay in Campismo de Monsanto 3 consecutive years. It was a paradise then; only the sounds of nature and glorious smells of the pine forest. I still dream about it!
And I love Cole Porter too!💖
One day I want to hear a love confession like this💕💕💕
Cole Porter's tunes, Fred and Ginger in The Gay Divorcee, it doesn't get any better.
Directly from Galla Placidia in Ravenna
He composed N&D after have seen Mausoleo di Galla Placida in Ravenna during his honeymoon
Imagine a person loving you this much - can’t even fathom
Some similitude with accords of "bossa nova", or a similar way of write music?
I've been looking for this version since I heard it on Grey Gardens!!!!
Pretty close to perfect.
Little River Band's "Reminiscing" (1978) brought me here. Lyrics: "And the Porter tune (Night and Day) made us dance across the room."
Stephanie Newbern i love that porter reference.
Stephanie Newbern, LRB brought me here, too.
I caught myself reminiscing about the song “Reminiscing.”
I'm here because of lrb's reminiscing also! I'm trying to learn everything about the song and the band.
Hola.
Un gusto.
: Una melodía preciosa , evocadora e inmortal.
Recomiendo :
"Reminiscing " - Little River Band ( 1978 )
: Esta banda australiana , impactó con esta bellísima balada , a fines de los años 70 's.
Según Graham Goble , uno de los compositores de este agrupación , dicha canción la escribió , inspirándose en el tema que presenta este video , el cual pertenece al gran Cole Porter.
Qué gran músico y compositor.
Un maestro.
Gracias por subir esta joya.
Un abrazo cordial.
Saludos desde Chile , Sudamérica.
J,'adore c'est de la MUSIQUE It come never a gain !!!
tremendo col porter
Sempre eterno
Fggg
That is a beautiful song and it has so much meaning for today and in those old days
This song is simply fantastic, it reminds me of my childhood when jazz music was the boom. I think Night and Day and Begin the Beguine are the best romantic songs ever written. And, Fred Astaire sings as superbly as he dances.
YES.;-)))
Cole Porter sings way better.
Its Fred Astaire singing.
I am a total Cole Porter freak.... and this is one of his greatest songs. It's fun to hear this early version... I am assuming this is Fred Astair singing.
I am semi-retired and deliver medications on a route that passes the cemetery in Peru, Indiana where Cole is buried. I have a friend here in Fort Wayne, Indiana who is related to Porter. I also have Hoosier connection to James Dean, as my father graduated from the same high school in Indiana that Jim attended and Jim frequently rode on the back of my father's 1940 Indian Chief motorcycle when Jim was between the ages of nine and twelve. Jim wrote a few letters to my father when he was in the merchant marine during WWII.
This is Cole Porter singing
Those were the Times were people still vad spirituality in their souls, nowadays, no GOD no JESUS no RELIGION! just more and more satanic worshiping spirituality is long gone almost the entré humanity has ALREADY sold to belzebub and list their i mortal souls ON THEIR PATH TO ETERNAL PERDITION !! NO JESUS, THEN MORE SATAN!! EITHER WE ARE WITH JESUS OF AGAINST HIM, COSEQUENTLY, ALMOST EVERY HUMAN BEINGARE ALREADY LOST ON THE WAY YO TERNAL ABYSS!!
Beautiful song❤️
A perfect relationship between Cole Porter and Fred Astaire...
Oh! Yes. This is music that will always stay.
Uma das mais belas musicas...
We don't make music like this anymore.
Jesse Winchester did! Look him up.
Is that so? I will do that! Thank you. :)
And he didn’t make music like his predecessors and so on.
Of course not. We do it better nowadays
☘️😍 Cole Porter y G. Gershwin......los más capos en la historia de la música 🇺🇸norteamericana ❗️
I compared this video with: The Essential Cole Porter, 3 disc set on CD2, 01 song is Fred Astaire - Night and Day. Yes it sounds exactly the same. Hopefully this has solved the problem!
I only heard of Cole Porter a few years and the purchase of this 3 disc set is without doubt one my best music purchases.
Lembrei da orquestra tabajara very Nice
What a song! It epitomised the 30s like no other song for me.
Have you seen midnight in Paris? awesome movie with his music!
quelle poésie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! que c est beau!!!!!!!!!!!!!! nignt and day for always cole porter R.I.P
This is a class Melodie,still used today :0) all in the name of music....its a beautiful thang!
Ella Fitzgerald did a nice a rendition but this is beautiful too
I prefer this version, but she did it great too
All of us who know something about Cole Porter know that this, and almost all his songs, were made to men. All wonderful songs. Inspired lyrics. Love, definitely, has no gender.
jrcblum . Quite. All us poufs know that. If only I had known when I was a persecuted youth. Hey ho..
And he wasn't handsome but wrote beatiful music.

Fallout 4 should make dlc with this song.
+DeeKaeKae bullshit this should of been in fallout 3, hell there's a lot of songs that should of been in fallout 3 just like the goddamn mills brothers
+Max Bielinski well thematically speaking, this song is much more appropriate for the Fallout 4 storyline.
NV had a more western feel to it though. I'd say this is more Eastern. More specifically, it feels to me like it's North Eastern-ish, being lie New York or Pennsylvania area. Although, that's just my take on it.

Also for Bioshock
Have you ever seen the Woody Allen movie "Midnight in Paris"?
Yes a great movie one of his best
