Sobre el álbum
El álbum Timepiece, de 1994, es un proyecto muy especial en la discografía de Kenny Rogers. Se trata de un disco en el que el artista rinde homenaje a la era del big band y el jazz vocal, interpretando clásicos del "Great American Songbook". Es una obra de una gran elegancia y sofisticación.
Kenny Rogers se acompaña de una orquesta de jazz para reinterpretar estándares popularizados por artistas como Frank Sinatra o Nat King Cole. De hecho, su voz rasgada se adapta sorprendentemente bien a este repertorio, aportándole un toque de calidez y cercanía.
"Timepiece" es un disco que demuestra una vez más la increíble versatilidad de un artista que nunca tuvo miedo de salir de su zona de confort. Es una joya para los amantes de la buena música, un viaje atemporal a la edad de oro de la canción popular.

- I Remember You
Letra
I remember you You're the one who made my dreams come true A few kisses go. I remember you You're the one who said "I love you too, I do" Didn't you know? I remember too A distant bell and stars that fell like rain Out of the blue. When my life is through And the angels ask me to recall The thrill of them all Then I should tell them: I remember you. When my life... - But Beautiful
Letra
Love is funny or it's sad Or it's quiet or it's mad It's a good thing or it's bad But beautiful Beautiful to take a chance And if you fall, you fall And I'm thinking I wouldn't mind at all Love is tearful or it's gay It's a problem or it's play It's a heartache either way But beautiful And I'm thinking if you were mine I'd never let you go And that would be but beautiful I know ... - When I Fall In Love
Letra
When I fall in love it will be forever Or Ill never fall in love In a restless world like this is Love is ended before its begun And too many moonlight kisses Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun When I give my heart it will be completely Or Ill never give my heart And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too Is when I fall in love with you. And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too Is when I fall in love with you. - Love Is Here To Stay
Letra
It's very clear, our love is here to stay Not for a year but ever and a day The radio and the telephone and the movies that we know May just be passing fancies and in time may go But oh, my dear, our love is here to stay Together we're going a long, long way In time the Rockies may crumble, Gibraltar may tumble They're only made of clay But our love is here to stay In time the Rockies may crumble, Gibraltar may tumble They're only made of clay But our love is here to stay - The Nearness Of You
Letra
It's not the pale moon that excites me That thrills me and delights me Oh no, it's just the nearness of you. It's not just your sweet conversation That brings the sensation Oh no, it's just the nearness of you. When you're in my arms And I hold you so close to me All my wildest dreams come true. I need no soft lights to enchant me If you only grant me the life To hold you ever so tight And to feel in the night The nearness of you... - My Funny Valentine
Letra
My funny valentine Sweet comic valentine You make me smile with my heart Your looks are laughable Unphotographable Yet youre my favourite work of art Is your figure less than greek Is your mouth a little weak When you open it to speak Are you smart? But dont change a hair for me Not if you care for me Stay little valentine stay Each day is valentines day Is your figure less than greek Is your mouth a little weak When you open it to speak Are you smart? But dont you change one hair for me Not if you care for me Stay little valentine stay Each day is valentines day - Love Is Just Around The Corner
Letra
Oh, my love is just around the corner Any cozy little corner Love is just around the corner When I'm around you And I'm a sentimental mourner And I couldn't be forlorner When you keep me in the corner Just waiting for you Now Venus de Milo was noted for her charm But strictly between us You're cuter than Venus And what's more, you've got arms So let's go cuddle in a corner Any cozy little corner Love is just around the corner When I'm around you Now Venus de Milo was noted for her charm But strictly between us You're cuter than Venus And what's more, you've got arms So let's go, cuddle in a corner Any cozy little corner Love is just around the corner When I'm around you When I'm around you, when I'm around you - Where Or When
Letra
It seems we stood and talked like this before. We looked at each other in the same way then, But I can't remember where or when. The clothes you're wearing are the clothes you wore. The smile you were smiling you were smiling then, But I can't remember where or when. Some things that happened for the first time Seem to be happening again. And so it seems that we have met before And laughed before and loved before, But who knows where or when? - My Romance
Letra
My romance doesn't have to have a moon in the sky My romance doesn't need a blue lagoon standing by No month of may, no twinkling stars No hide away, no softly guitars My romance doesn't need a castle rising in Spain Nor a dance to a constantly surprising refrain Wide awake I can make my most fantastic dreams come true My romance doesn't need a thing but you ... - In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning
Letra
In the wee small hours of the morning While the whole wide world is fast asleep You lie awake and think about the girl And never even think of counting sheep When your lonely heart has learned its lesson You'd be hers if only she would call In the wee small hours of the morning That's the time you miss her most of all When your lonely heart has learned its lesson You'd be hers if only she would call And in the wee small hours of the morning That's the time you missed her most of all - I Get Along Without You Very Well (Except Sometimes)
Letra
I get along without you very well, of course, I do Except when soft rains fall and drip from leaves Then I recall the thrill of being sheltered in your arms Of course I do, but I get along without you very well I've forgotten you just like I should, of course, I have Except to hear your name Or someones laugh that's just the same But I've forgotten you just like I should What a guy, what a fool am I? To think my breaking heart could kid the moon What's in store, should I fall once more? No it's best that I stick to my tune I get along without you very well, of course, I do Except perhaps in spring But I should never ever think of spring For that would surely break my heart in two What's in store, should I fall once more? No it's best that I stick to my tune I get along without you very well, of course, I do Except perhaps in spring But I should never ever think of spring For that would surely break my heart in two - You Are So Beautiful
Letra
You are so beautiful to me You are so beautiful to me Can't you see You're everything that I'd hoped for You're everything I need You are so beautiful to me You are so beautiful to me You are so beautiful to me Can't you see You're everything that I'd hoped for You're everything that I need You are so beautiful You are so beautiful You are so beautiful to me
