I’ve said before that iTunes’ shuffle algorythm is not to be trusted, but by now I’m truly convinced that iTunes has secret super powers that allow it to always find the right song for the right occasion. Like a Philips Mood Light Of The Future™, perfectly able to determine your mood and serve you with the fitting color value, hue and saturation.
Yesterday, iTunes served She & Him’s cover of “Gonna Get Along Without You Now” at the exact right moment. Like magic. I shared the song and got about a dozen versions of the same track in return. With you I’m sharing the oldest one, the original.
“Gonna Get Along Without Ya Now” was written by Milton Kellem, first recorded by Teresa Brewer on January 10, 1952 and released by Coral Records. And I love it!
Pssst: Skeeter Davis’ and Trini Lopez’ versions are the bee’s knees as well.

Hey! I am trying to get hold of Brenda Diergaarde and know you used to be in contact. Are you still in contact with her? I know she moved to Seattle a good few years ago and I lost contact about 2/3 years ago….. can you help? I’m sorry to hijack your blog!
