Blame It on My Youth (Lied)

Oscar Levant (1945)

Blame It on My Youth ist ein Song, der 1934 von dem US-amerikanischen Komponisten Oscar Levant komponiert wurde.[1] Der Liedtext[2] stammt von dem US-amerikanischen Songwriter Edward Heyman. Die erste Aufnahme des Songs erfolgte ebenfalls 1934 durch Freddy Martin and His Orchestra.[3] Seit seinem Debüt wurde der Song von zahlreichen Künstlern interpretiert und hat sich zu einem Jazzstandard entwickelt.

Hintergrund

Oscar Levant, der Komponist des Songs, hat zwischen 1929 und 1948 zahlreiche populäre Lieder komponiert. Blame It on My Youth war einer seiner bekanntesten und erfolgreichsten Lieder. Außerdem hat er die Musik für mehr als zwanzig Filme geschrieben. Levant war aber nicht nur Komponist, sondern hat sich auch als Konzertpianist und Schauspieler einen Namen gemacht.

Edward Heyman war Songwriter in der Tin Pan Alley und Musical-Librettist für den Broadway. Außer Blame It on My Youth war er Liedtexter bei den Liedern Out of Nowhere (1931), Rain, Rain, Go Away (1932), I Cover the Waterfront (1933), I Wanna Be Loved (1933), Easy Come, Easy Go (1934), They Say (1938), Strange Love (1946) und When I Fall in Love (1952). Außerdem war er einer der Songtexter des bekannten Jazzstandards Body and Soul (1930).[4]

Freddy Martin (1943)

Blame It on My Youth wurde erstmals am 25. Oktober von Freddy Martin and His Orchestra aufgenommen und von Brunswick Records als Single veröffentlicht.[3] Der US-Amerikaner Freddy Martin war Tenorsaxophonist und einer der erfolgreichsten Bandleader der Tanzband-Ära. Seinen Durchbruch hatte er Mitte der 1930er Jahre, nicht zuletzt durch Hits wie Blame It on My Youth.

Entwicklung zum Jazzstandard

Der Song wurde nach der Erstveröffentlichung zunächst von einigen anderen Bigbands, wie zum Beispiel Jan Garber and His Orchestra (1934) gecovert. Mitte der 1950er Jahre nahm die Interpretation des Songs durch Jazzmusiker Fahrt auf. So erschienen beispielsweise Aufnahmen des Songs von Ann Gilbert und dem Elliot Lawrence Orchestra (1956), von Frank Sinatra (1957), von Nat King Cole (1957) und von Rosemary Clooney (1958). Seit Anfang der 1960er Jahre ist der Song ein gerne gespielter Jazzstandard.[3]

According to the tradition of the Physiologus and medieval bestiaries, the aspidochelone is a fabled sea creature, variously described as a large whale or vast sea turtle, and a giant sea monster with huge spines on the ridge of its back. No matter what form it is, it is always described as being so huge that it is often mistaken for an island and appears to be rocky with crevices and valleys with trees and greenery and having sand dunes all over it. The name aspidochelone appears to be a com...
