Une chanson: Everything old is new again

Un titre parfait pour des archives. Il s’agit d’une chanson écrite par Peter Allen et Carole Bayer Sager au début des années 70. On peut l’entendre notamment dans Que le spectacle commence (All That Jazz) de Bob Fosse et dans la comédie musicale scénique relatant la vie de Peter Allen The Boy From Oz.


Everything old is new again

When trumpets were mellow
And ev'ry gal only had one fellow
No need to remember when
'Cause ev'ry thing old is new again

(Dancin' at) Your Long Island Jazz Age parties
Waiter, bring us more Bacardis
We'll order now what they ordered then
'Cause ev'ry thing old is new again

Get out your white suit, your tap shoes and tails
Let's go backwards when all else(forward) fails
And movie stars you thought were long dead
Now are framed beside your bed

Don't throw the past away
You might need it some rainy day
Dreams can come true again
When ev'ry thing old is new again

Get out your white suit, your tap shoes and tails
Put it in backward when forward fails
But leave Greta Garbo alone
Be a movie star on your own

And don't throw the past away
You might need it some rainy day
Dreams can come true again
When ev'ry thing old is new again

I might fall in love with you again
