Billy Eckstine

William Clarence Eckstine (July 8, 1914 – March 8, 1993) was an American singer of ballads and a bandleader of the swing era. Eckstine's smooth baritone and distinctive vibrato broke down barriers throughout the 1940s, first as leader of the original bop big-band, then as the first romantic black male in popular music. Eckstine's recording of "I Apologize" (MGM Pop Single, 1948) was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame Award in 1999. more »

And when I hear you call
So softly to me
I don't hear a call at all,
I hear a Rhapsody

And when your sparkling eyes
Are smiling at me
Then soft through the starlit skies,
I hear a rhapsody

My days are so blue
When you're away
My heart longs for you
So won't you stay

My darling, hold me tight
And whisper to me
Then soft through a starry night
I'll hear a rhapsody
