My Funny Valentine

Sentimental old fluff that I am, I can think of no better love song to celebrate today's holiday than this tender madrigal written and sung by the late Harry Nilsson.

Hello, young lovers...this one's for you!



You're breakin' my heart
You're tearin' it apart
So fuck you.....


Harry was such a romantic....

I remember the first time I heard this song - the album had just come out and KSAN played it.

They knew what they were doing, too - it was a semi-regular on their playlist for a long time...

I actually never heard it anywhere until the Nilsson box set came out...

That's Harry's next to best song. Right after "Jump into the Fire".

If I hear "Love is in the air" one more time...

Harry had the stuff. Great melodies and words, and man he was an absolutely fearless singer! Sadly, the courage probably came from a bottle. But here is to Harry!

And Happy Valentine's to us all.
