Look for the silver lining
Whenever a cloud appears in the blue
Remember, somewhere the sun is shining
And so the right thing to do is make it shine for you
A heart, full of joy and gladness
Will always banish sadness and strife
So always look for the silver lining
And try to find the sunny side of life
So always look for the silver lining
And try to find the sunny side of life
my sister lived downstairs from Chet Baker in San Francisco when he was just starting out playing in the S.F. Clubs..- Bea had a huge crush on him,and they dated for awhile..
I love this rendition of "look for the silver lining' by Chet ~ very sweet and the words are even more important for us to remember today.. judith
Yeah, man!
Russ Freeman is my late father, really and truly. I used to love watching him practice on his baby grand piano in the den. How could he make his fingers do that incredible playing?
I might be a bit prejudiced, but I think my Dad had the most distinctive touch on the piano of all the West Coast Bebop keyboard players. Plus, he was an outstanding composer, which he started up again in the later years of his life.
Thank you SO much for posting this video, kbddd!
What a beautiful voice he had.
I think his voice itself is wonderful instrument.

For me, it's kind of similar with "fly me to the moon"
I love the rendition of this upbeat song by Chet Baker. I remember first hearing this in the middle 1950's, and going out and purchasing a 78 rpm record of it, which I still own.
TCM-Me too. I didn't know who he was so I emailed TCM and asked who was that "cool" singer. His style reminded me a bit of Bobby Troupe. They emailed me back and told me it was Chet Baker and now there is a goldmine of his music on Yputube and it is so great.
storms come into life,
inner light dims,keep alight,
sun returns,light on!
'As I wash my dishes, I'll be following a plan
Til I see the brightness in every pot and pan
I am sure this point of view will ease the daily grind
So I'll keep repeating in my mind:
Look for the silver lining
Whenever a cloud appears in the blue
Remember, somewhere the sun is shining
And so the right thing to do is make it shine for you
A heart, full of joy and gladness
Will always banish sadness and strife
So always look for the silver lining
And try to find the sunny side of life
So always look for the silver lining
And try to find the sunny side of life...'

I can't express what I feel when Chet Baker sings. His inimitable voice is instantly recognizable and yet every time I can't prevent myself from getting the goosebumps... Look for the silver lining and you will find the sunny side of life... Beautiful... Thanks for the upload.
Absolutely PERFECT. What a shame he didn't live much longer. I first heard this version in L.A. Confidential. Then I bought a couple of his compilations and was stunned by his talent.
