I morgen – den 14. februar – er det den hellige Valentins (visstnok halshugget den 14. februar 269) festdag. Han er skytshelgen for blant annet kjærestefolk.
Sangen My Funny Valentine, med melodi av Richard Rodgers og tekst av Lorenz Hart, er hentet fra musicalen Babes in Arms (1937). Den inngår i albumet Fairytales (1982), der Radka Toneff (1952–1982) synger med Steve Dobrogosz ved klaveret.
Sweet comic valentine
You make me smile with my heart
Your looks are laughable
Unphotographable
Yet you’re my favourite work of artIs your figure less than greek
Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak
Are you smart?But dont change a hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay little valentine stay
Each day is valentines dayIs your figure less than greek
Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak
Are you smart?But dont you change one hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay little valentine stay
Each day is valentines day
