    Wow! One can hear Miss Fitzgerald's love for music here. She's trying to tell us something without lecturing, without recrimination, just a map of how to live. I hear this as a recording of a concerned 'modern' school teacher; I had a few of those and I hope I am better for it. Live life with SWING! (But stay in control)

      Pure art. I love swing (and rag-time too, actually), but nobody has been able to sing like Ms. Fitzgerald then or since imho. Lady Gaga's hot and has a nice voice, but she's a pale imitation in comparison (no offense, Lady Gaga--I'll still marry you. xP)

    This isn't swinging - this is bop. It don't mean a sop if it ain't got that bop. Technical brilliance for its own sake leaves me cold.

      Omg, lol. She has an older recording at a more "appropriate" and stylistically correct tempo. This reminds me of college and having to interpret a renaissance fermata over a baroque fermata. 😭

      BTW, how, technically, do they make the speed change without changing the pitch? If you speed up a record the frequency naturally increases. Must be a digital compression or expansion thing happening, where the same pitch is stretched or compressed. When I use 1.25x speed the speaker doesn't sound like Alvin!

    Nah, it ain't the melody and it ain't the music
    There's something else that makes this tune complete
    Yes, it don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing
    Well, it don't mean a thing, all you got to do is sing
    It makes no difference if it's sweet or hot
    Just give that rhythm everything you got
    Yes, it don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing
    It don't mean a thing, don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing, boy

    ain't got that swing
    Ничуть не важно, если амплитуда не та,
    It don't mean a thing, all you got to do is sing
    Это сущий пустяк. Всё, что нужно делать, - это петь.
    It makes no difference if it's sweet or hot
    Какая разница, сладко или горячо,
    Just give that rhythm everything you've got
    Просто отдай этому ритму всё, что у тебя есть.
    Oh, it don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing
    Не имеет значения, если не хватает живости и драйва,
    It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing
    Не важно, если не достаёт размаха,
    Don't mean a thing, all you got to do is sing
    Это сущий пустяк. Всё, что нужно делать, - это петь.
    It makes no difference if it's sweet or hot
    Какая разница, сладко или горячо,
    Just give that rhythm everything you got
    Просто отдай этому ритму всё, что у тебя есть.
