The Year of Tony Bennett

An Appreciation of the Art and Music of Tony Bennett

June 10, 2019 By Suzanne Leave a Comment

Song of the Day: Time To Smile

The song of the day for Tuesday, June 11, 2019, is “Time To Smile.”

About This Song

“Time To Smile” was written in 1966 by Geoffrey Clarkson and Johnny Mercer. This song had long been thought lost and was only discovered in 2004; Bennett’s recording on The Art of Romance was the song’s debut.

About This Version

Tony Bennett recorded “Time To Smile” in 2004 for The Art of Romance. The arrangement is by Jorge Callandrelli and features Phil Woods on saxophone. Not only do I adore this album, I think the photograph of Mr. Bennett on the cover of the album is fantastic!
