Autumn leaves by Yves Montand

This is a complete version, with the first part (kind of verse for american people), by Yves Montand, one of the best french singers, who created the song (not exactly, there was another version before, but which didn't do the tremendous hit of Montand's one).
Since the lyrics are a poem of Jacques Prévert, if you sing the song in french, it's a nonsense not to sing both parts.
I felt anyone would know all that. Enjoy !
(Oh ! I don't have any idea who is the vibist...)

TOTM - Autumn Leaves - A few inspiring versions

Our next TOTM is Autumn Leaves. Here is one of my favorite versions. Do you know who Eva Cassidy is? Man check her out, she is pretty heavy. More of a blues singer, but wow, she gives me chills. She died very young and in her prime. I'm a huge Eva Cassidy fan and this is my most favorite versions of Autumn Leaves.

We won't use this to study, but I just figured I'd post it.
