“Tom Traubert’s Blues” is a song by American singer-songwriter Tom Waits, featured as the opening track on his 1976 album Small Change.

Debuting in 1973, Waits earned the nickname “the drunken poet” for his distinctive raspy voice and unique phrasing.

The characters who appear in his songs are mostly nameless, ordinary people.

In this work as well, you can hear a uniquely flavorful song that gazes warmly and gently at such down-and-out folks.

As time goes byTony Bennett

Tony Bennett is a singer from the United States.

Alongside Frank Sinatra, he is a leading figure in show business and remains active on the front lines today.

On his 1970s album, The Great American Songbook—which features only American standards—you can hear As Time Goes By, the insert song from the film Casablanca.

Included on the 1985 album “Whitney Houston.” Born in 1963, a singer and actress from New Jersey.

Carried by a slow tempo with a gently flowing rhythm and a mellow, heartfelt melody line, her soulful vocals still pierce straight to the heart even now.

She was truly extraordinary.

Included on the 1988 album “Stay on These Roads.” A three-member pop band from Norway formed in 1982.

The opening intro has a suspenseful feel that might send a chill down your spine when you listen at night.

Basically, though, it’s a calm, laid-back pop song.

Into the Night is a song by American singer-songwriter Benny Mardones, released in 1980.

Counted among the classics of AOR, it became a hit again in 1989.

The original version of the song known in Japan as “Itsuka Ōjisama ga” was a piece from Disney’s animated film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

Among these, the version that became especially famous was Bill Evans’s piano performance.

Evans was a pianist who epitomized modern jazz and had a profound influence on later jazz musicians.

This work is one that draws you in, leaving you enraptured and dreamily absorbed.
