  • Evening at Pops. August 14, 1988.
    The orchestra conducted by John Towner Williams.
    The song "Wind Beneath My Wings", recorded for "Today" in 1987, two years before it was a hit for Bette Midler, was meant to be somewhat autobiographical. Como also sang this song some 5 years earlier as a tribute to Como's boyhood idol, Bing Crosby.

    Perry Como represented all that was good in his singing and in his lifestyle. Never any scandal or bad publicity. Today's entertainers should take a page out his book and stop acting like spoiled children. He was one of a kind. R.I.P. Perry

    Much better rendition by Perry, of course. This is a beautifu song made even more beautiful by Perry and of course arranged and accompanied by Nick Perito on the piano. You can tell its Nicks arrangement by just listening to it. Two GREAT performers working together to make a good song even better.

    For some unfathomable reason RCA in their infinitive wisdom decided to not release this as a single, much to the chagrin of Perry. His performance of this song which is already a standard, is simply beautiful, not only Mr. Como's rendition, but the sumptuous accompaniment of the orchestra and chorus.

    It was fitting that Perry gave tribute to Bing. Early on in his career, you could hardly tell the difference between him and Bing. Of course, he found his own niche later on. You would not confuse him with Bing on this song for example. But singing like Bing was how he got his career going. There were many singers back then who tried to sound like Bing. Perry was special in that he developed his own style as times went on,

    Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
    It must have been cold there in my shadow,
    to never have sunlight on your face.
    You were content to let me shine, that's your way.
    You always walked a step behind.
    So I was the one with all the glory,
    while you were the one with all the strength.
    A beautiful face without a name for so long.
    A beautiful smile to hide the pain.
    Did you ever know that you're my hero,
    and everything I would like to be?
    I can fly higher than an eagle,
    'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
    It might have appeared to go unnoticed,
    but I've got it all here in my heart.
    I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it.
    I would be nothing without you.
    Did you ever know that you're my hero?
    You're everything I wish I could be.
    I could fly higher than an eagle,
    'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
    Did I ever tell you you're my hero?
    You're everything, everything I wish I could be.
    Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle,
    'cause you are the wind beneath my wings,
    'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
    Oh, the wind beneath my wings.
    You, you, you, you are the wind beneath my wings.
    Fly, fly, fly away. You let me fly so high.
    Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.
    Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.
    Fly, fly, fly high against the sky,
    so high I almost touch the sky.
    Thank you, thank you,
    thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings.

    You have to go deeply into the philosophical meaning of the lyrics to appreciate the message. The saying: "Behind the back of a great man, there's always a great woman" illustrates the meaning of the song. How many times We have a wife who is exactly that: ""The wind beneath our wings" that helps reach heights of success in life. We honor Mothers once a year with the MOTHER'S DAY HOLIDAY , when We should honor them everyday. Humanity depends on Mothers for the propagation of the SPECIES, how could we ever do without them? THINK ABOUT THAT VERY HARD! BYE
