Don't you find the beginning of the theme of this series extremely similar to that of "Lady Sings The Blues" by Billie Holiday"? Here we are in American cinema. Limit plagiarism, no?

The title of Billie Holiday appeared 1 year earlier in 1956 (than the initial version in 1957). Surprised?

No. Why would I?

To say I missed it when it came out, and yet it had a music win in 2015, I must have fallen victim to my aversion to ceremonies and self-rewarding professions. The good singers / singers, there is a plethora. But the singer-songwriters do not run the streets, and there we have a pearl. I love the influences of other genres in French song, like here and there discreetly oriental.
Indila. Last Dance.

and even. Love Story.

and we put it back. Turn in the void.

Easy-listening and simplistic lyrics tonight, we don't take our heads off.

We start with Pink Martini:

In the same line but less recent interpretation, Rosemary Clooney, Sway:

With the simple stuff, we know we've hooked up with the extreme right, so we're going to put a few pairs of buttocks on these rednecks, it'll make them happy.
Andy Williams, Music to Watch Girls By:

Lots of easy listening come to us from South America via the Americans, and there we get it from Sonora Santanera (Mexico), less known, "Où est-tu Yolande":

The gnangnan without the bossa nova, something is missing. "The Shadow of Your Smile", by Astrud Gilberto:

Dripping Apotheosis, Tony Bennett, Strangers in Paradise:

Well, it's unbearable, I'm going to have to do a rock cure now...
