Song of the Day: Then Was Then and Now is Now

The song of the day for Friday, March 19, 2021, is “Then Was Then and Now is Now.”

About This Song

“Then Was Then and Now is Now” was written in 1964 by Cy Coleman and Peggy Lee (or as I call her Miss Peggy Lee). She released it on an album of the same name in 1965.

About This Version

Tony Bennett recorded “Then Was Then and Now is Now” in 1965 for If I Ruled The World: Songs For The Jet Set. Don Costa did the very fine arrangement.
