#KaraokeCovers #KaraokeHits #KaraokeVersions “Aubrey“ is a song written and composed by David Gates, and originally recorded by the soft rock group Bread, of which Gates was the leader and primary music producer. It appeared on Bread’s 1972 album Guitar Man. The single lasted 11 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, peaking at number 15. In Canada the song reached only number 41 on the pop singles chart, but reached number 6 on the adult contemporary chart. In New Zealand, “Aubrey“ reached number 8. David Gates wrote the song after watching Breakfast at Tiffany’s starring Audrey Hepburn. Actress Aubrey Plaza is named after the song. “Aubrey“ was later recorded by Perry Como and included on his 1973 album And I Love You So. A soul-jazz interpretation of the main melody by saxophonist Grover Washington Jr. was sampled on the 1998 song “Step to My Girl“ by Oakland-based hip-hop group Souls of Mischief. This version provided inspiration in turn for the song “Step“ by American indie rock band Vampire Weekend. Source: (song) Thanks for watching!

LYRICS: And Aubrey was her name, A not so very ordinary girl or name. But who’s to blame? For a love that wouldn’t bloom For the hearts that never played in tune. Like a lovely melody that everyone can sing, Take away the words that rhyme it doesn’t mean a thing. And Aubrey was her name. We triped the light and danced together to the moon, But where was June. No it never came around. If it did it never made a sound, Maybe I was absent or was listening to fast, Catching all the words, but then the meaning going past, But God I miss the girl, And I’d go a thousand times around the world just to be Closer to her than to me. And Aubrey was her name, I never knew her, but I loved her just the same, I loved her name. Wish that I had found the way And the reasons that would make her stay. I have learned to lead a life apart from all the rest. If I can’t have the one I want, I’ll do without the best. But how I miss the girl And I’d go a million times around the world just to say She had been mine for a day.
