Love song from the 30's. Was it Velia, or Delia ??greenspun.com : LUSENET : Countryside : One Thread |
At 71, I don't remember as good as I used to. Especially trying to remember a love song my Mother used to play on piano, and sing. Some of you older sharpies let me know the title and the words

Was it kind of operatic sounding? There's "Vilja" from an operetta by Franz Lehar.

Buddy, I remember a plaintive song titled "Delia" by, I think Harry Belefonte? something about "....where have you been so long..? That's the only one I can come up with. Hope this helps,..LQ

Yes, probably.Both are possibilities. Go to www.google.com and enter "Delia song" as the search phrase. Look at the possibilities, then try again with "Velia song".
Best wishes.

Delia, by Harry Bellybutton(Belefonte)..just kidding, was popular in the late 50's or early 60"s. I think!?
