「あんた変わったねー」 そう言われたことはありませんか?

若槻千夏が変わった、整形だと、ネットでは専らのウワサですが、
多かれ少なかれ人は時とともに変わってくもんです。

Mary & The Desirables – You’re Changing(1966/01)

Dionne Warwick – Don’t Make Me Over(1962/10 hit 45 single version)
arranged and conducted by Burt Bacharach
シングル “I Smiled Yesterday” のB面。

(Debuted late ’62) 1963 Pop Chart Peaks: Cash Box 17, Music Vendor 18, Billboard 21 – R&B Chart Peak: 5
This was Dionne’s first national record hit…one of many Burt Bacharach-Hal David songs that she would introduce on record. A 35-second passage was trimmed from the original LP cut to bring this 45 release in at under three minutes.

Harry James and his Orchestra – You’ve Changed(1941)
vocal: Dick Haymes
recorded in NYC October 6, 1941

Leon Belasco and his Hotel St. Moritz Orchestra – Don’t Change(Be As You Are)(1933)
vocal: Leon Belasco

recorded in NYC September 22, 1933
A bandleader during the 1930s (he conducted the Andrews Sisters’ debut recordings), the Russian-born Belasco then shifted to an acting career, appearing in well over a hundred movies and television shows from the 1940s to 1970s, often in bit roles.

60年代初期のアイドルも中期・後期にはこんなになってますから。
この髭ズラの男はなんとあのボビー・ヴィーです。

Robert Thomas Velline – It’s All The Same(1972)
Bobby Vee

Light years removed from his teen idol days, in “It’s All The Same” we hear a much more mature and introspective singer. The final track from his mostly ignored 1972 release’Nothin’ Like A Sunny Day’. It’s actually a very good album full of country flavored songs, most written by Bobby.

Bobby Vee – I Just Can’t Help Believin’
エルビスの曲です。

本人も変わりますが世の中だって変わります。はやり廃りは世の常。
あのブライアン・ハイランドだって、こんな歌をうたってます。

Brian Hyland – Holiday For Clowns

シナトラ路線一筋かと思いきやボビー・ダーリンも
1966、7年ころはこんな感じでした。

This is from a TV special recorded 9 months before Bobby Darin’s death at age 37.
