The Year of Tony Bennett

An Appreciation of the Art and Music of Tony Bennett

September 15, 2021 By Suzanne Leave a Comment

Song of the Day: Maybe This Time

The song of the day for Thursday, September 16, 2021, is “Maybe This Time.”

About This Song

“Maybe This Time” was written by John Kander and Fred Ebb in 1963. This song appeared in the film version of Cabaret. It was not written for the original Broadway production. Nor was it written especially for the film version; Kander and Ebb had written the song in 1963 for Kaye Ballard. It was therefore not eligible for consideration for an Academy Award. The song is, of course, widely associated with Liza Minnelli, who sang it in the film version of Cabaret. Tony Bennett sang the song regularly at his concerts.

About This Version

Tony Bennett first recorded “Maybe This Time” in 1972 for the album With Love. It was arranged and conducted by Robert Farnon.
