DORIS DAY - SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY

SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY

DORIS DAY

COMPOSERS: BUD GREEN; LES BROWN AND BEN HOMER

THE LOVE ALBUM/2006

LABEL: FEINERY

GENRE: POP

YEAR: 2000

The first domestic release of this album, recorded by Miss Day in 1967, right before she commenced production on the 1968 MGM comedy, "Where Were You When the Lights Went Out?" is cause for celebration. Intended as the beginning of a new phase of her recording career after decades of recording for Columbia where she was, for a while, their top-selling female artist, it is a collection that truly befits its title as "The Love Album".

Romantic, dreamy, tender, special and those are barely a handful of adjectives that could be used to describe this exquisite collection given the special Doris Day touch.

Gonna take a sentimental journey

Gonna set my heart at ease

Gonna make a sentimental journey

To renew old memories

Got my bag, got my reservation

Spent each dime I could afford

Like a child in wild anticipation

Long to hear that "All aboard"

Seven, that's the time we leave, at seven

I'll be waitin' up for heaven

Countin' every mile of railroad track

That takes me back

Never thought my heart could be so yearny

Why did I decide to roam?

Gotta take that sentimental journey

Sentimental journey home

Sentimental journey!
