My Heart Belongs to Daddy

Este clásico de Cole Porter interpretado inicialmente por Mary Martin ha sido versionado por infinidad de artistas (con mayor y menor acierto, que se suele decir) a lo largo de los años, pero si se conoce en voz de alguien, es en voz de Marilyn Monroe. En este blog somos de la opinión de que las versiones valoradas como "poco acertadas" son las mejores, así que aquí tienen nuestros tres covers favoritos y el más conocido/tradicional (para que se aprecie aún más lo extraordinario de los covers bizarros seleccionados):

Marilyn Monroe - My Heart Belongs To Daddy



I used to fall in love with all those boys who maul the young cuties
But now I find I’m more inclined to keep my mind on my duties.

While tearing off a game of golf
I may make a play for the caddy
But when I do, I don’t follow through
‘cause my heart belongs to Daddy.

If I invite a boy some night
To dine on my fine finnan haddie
I just adore his asking for more
But my heart belongs to Daddy

Yes my heart belongs to Daddy
So I simply couldn’t be bad
Yes, my heart belongs to Daddy
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
So I want to warn you, laddie
Though I know you’re perfectly swell
But my heart belongs to Daddy
‘cause my Daddy he treats it so well

There was a dame that a football game
Made long for the strong undergraddie
I never dream of making the team
‘cause my heart belongs to daddy

Yes, my heart belongs to Daddy
So I simply couldn’t be bad
Yes, my heart belongs to Daddy
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
So I want to warn you, laddie
Though I know you’re perfectly swell
That my heart belongs to Daddy
‘cause my Daddy, he treats it so well
