Because — Casey Jones Costello
Original Source: YouTube
This is me, Casey Jones Costello, singing "Because," as part of my show "Heart Songs and Musical Valentines," at The Manor House in Batavia, NY, on February 23, 2016. The song was written in 1902 by the French composer Guy d'Hardelot, which was actually a pseudonym for Helen Rhodes, with English lyrics by Edward Teschemacher.
The song was a popular parlour song at the turn of the 20th Century, and remained popular as a wedding song for decades after. It was popularized originally by Enrico Caruso, and then later by Mario Lanza, in the movie about Caruso's life, "The Great Caruso." It's always been one of my favorites as well, and I hope you enjoy my performance of it! I am accompanied on the piano by John Palocy.
