Sarah Vaughan with Clifford Brown
September Song
👇 🎼 👇
👄 One of the greatest of all voices. Nobody comes close to even copying her.
👄 This is one of the greatest version of September Song not only for Sarah Vaughan rendition but for Clifford Brown solo. It is epochal, this solo is one of the greatest trumpet solo in the history jazz.
👄 You're right on target. I've always felt that Clifford's solo is a perfect complement to Sarah's enchantment. Been listening to this for almost 50 years and it still makes my flesh crawl.

For it's a long, long while from May to December,
But the days grow short when you reach September.
And the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame
One hasn't got time for the waiting game.
And the days dwindle down to a precious few
September, November
And these few precious days I'll spend with you.
These golden days I'll spend With you
And these few precious days I'll spend with you.
Not January, February, June or July.... September
But the days grow short when you reach September.
And the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame
One hasn't got time for the waiting game.
And the days dwindle down to a precious few
September, November
And these few precious days I'll spend with you.
These golden days I'll spend With you
And these few precious days I'll spend with you.
Not January, February, June or July.... September
"September Song" is an American pop standard composed by Kurt Weill, with lyric by Maxwell Anderson, introduced by Walter Huston in the 1938 Broadway musical Knickerbocker Holiday.
It has since been recorded by numerous singers and instrumentalists. It was also used in the 1950 film September Affair, and for the credits in the television series May to December (a quote from the opening line of the song).
Although the song was written as an old man's lament for the passing of his youth, some of the most famous versions have been recorded by women artists. Thus Sarah Vaughan's version of 1955, and Ella Fitzgerald's with pianist Paul Smith on the 1960 Verve release. Ella Fitzgerald Sings Songs From Let No Man Write My Epitaph are both regarded as Jazz classics. Eartha Kitt and Weill's wife Lotte Lenya both recorded the song in 1957, and Jo Stafford, Patti Page as well as Anne Shelton also recorded versions during the 1950s. In 1958 Eydie Gormé included the song in her album, Love is the season and in 1989 both Lena Horne in The Men in My Life, and Julie Wilson in an album of Kurt Weill songs.
Personally this song reminds me of waking up in on an early Saturday morning just as the sun starts to pierce through the window shade slits and the flowers outside with morning dew start to open up. As one eye slightly opens up and then the other followed by a fisted hand arm stretch and yawn... then Sarah starts to sing this song... oh so beautifully!
Sarah's accompanied by Leader/Arranger: Ernie Wilkins, Clifford Brown (trumpet), Herbie Mann (flute), Paul Quinichette (tenor), Jimmy Jones (piano), Joe Benjamin (bass), and Roy Haynes (drums). Recorded in New York, December 18, 1954. (EmArcy Records)

What have the artists said about the song?
Songwriter Allee Willis remembered first hearing the intro to the song when she walked in the studio. She told NPR:
🎤As I open the door, they had just written the intro to ‘September.’ And I just thought, ‘Dear God, let this be what they want me to write!’ Cause it was obviously the happiest-sounding song in the world.
🗣
About the “bada-ya” lyrics in the chorus, she added:
🎤The, kind of, go-to phrase that Maurice used in every song he wrote was ‘ba-dee-ya,’ so right from the beginning he was singing, ‘Ba-dee-ya, say, do you remember / Ba-dee-ya, dancing in September.’ And I said, ‘We are going to change 'ba-dee-ya’ to real words, right?‘ And finally, when it was so obvious that he was not going to do it, I just said, 'What the f- does 'ba-dee-ya’ mean?‘ And he essentially said, 'Who the f- cares?’ I learned my greatest lesson ever in songwriting from him, which was never let the lyric get in the way of the groove.
🗣
What is the importance of the 21st of September?
🎤 According to songwriter Allee Willis, he initially just thought that the 21st was a number picked out of the air by Maurice White for sounding the best in the song. In 2018, however, White’s widow revealed that the 21st of September was meant to be the the due date of her and White’s son.
🗣
Lyrics Facts of the song September:
In starting of September lyrics the vocalist talks about a date in September as his place of legacy. The 21st of September made such a lot of importance in his life, that made him turn out a whole track about it. The tune has a heartfelt feeling where the vocalist discusses being enamored and finding out everything around them is the same as their feelings. Then talk about the brilliant evening, smooth breeze, clear sky, and two hearts closely knit in adoration and friendship. The couple spent the night away dancing and holding. in such an encompassing. In the subsequent refrain, the vocalist uncovers that as of now it is the long stretch of December, and he realizes that the affection they partook in September is genuine and here to stay. The melody expresses that there was a “bell ringing” while they shared this beauty of love and happiness in their lives. One could envision that the singer could be hinting at, his wedding date in this tune.
🗣
How the stars stole the night away, oh, yeah
In the chorus, we hear a few new words being sung-“Ba-dee ya.” One of the lyricists of the ‘September’, Allee Willis, made sense of what it implies in a meeting with NPR; ‘And I said, ‘We will change ‘ba-dee-ya’ to genuine words, right?’ Lastly, when it was clear to such an extent that he wouldn’t let it happen, I recently expressed out loud, ‘Whatever the f*** does ‘ba-dee-ya’ mean?’ And he said, ‘Who the f*** cares?’ And it is the most prominent conclusion ever from his songwriting, that never allows the lyrics to hinder the drill.

The leaves of brown, came tumbling down,
Remember that September, in the Rain
The sun went out just like a dying ember
That September in the rain
To every word of love I've heard you whisper
The raindrops seem to play a sweet refrain.
Though spring is here to me it's still September
That September in the rain
To every word of love I've heard you whisper
The raindrops seem to play a sweet refrain
Though spring is here to me it's still September
That September in the rain
September in the rain
