As this is a Sunday MOrning, and the fact that I included a soft Jazz rendition of 'S Wonderful, I have decided that I will include the Music of Jazz as part of my Music Interlude for today... To commence this Morning's Interlude, I present Guitarist John Mayer and Trumpeter, Chris Botti with "In The Wee Small Hours" a stellar music arrangement that will soothe away the stresses that you may be in for any number of reasons... I wish you all a wonderful Sunday, my Brothers and Sisters...
LYRICS:
"In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning"
In the wee small hours of the morning,
While the whole wide world is fast asleep,
You lie awake and think about the girl
And never, ever think of counting sheep.
When your lonely heart has learned its lesson,
You'd be hers if only she would call,
In the wee small hours of the morning,
That's the time you miss her most of all.
[Musical interlude]
When your lonely heart has learned its lesson,
You'd be hers if only she would call,
In the wee small hours of the morning,
That's the time you miss her most of all.
Writer(s): Bob Hilliard, David A. Mann

Song facts "Written by David Mann and Bob Hilliard, this song was first introduced as the title track of Frank Sinatra's melancholy album In the Wee Small Hours in an arrangement by Nelson Riddle.
The album of torch songs about loneliness and heartache, drawn from Sinatra's personal struggles with his divorce from his first wife, Nancy, and his troubled marriage to actress Ava Gardner, is considered to be one of the first concept albums. Charles Pignone, Senior Vice President of Frank Sinatra Enterprises, explained the crooner's thought process behind his series of concept albums in a Songfacts interview: "He had envisioned that instead of people just making singles, to do a whole album thematically so it would hold people's attention. It's all changed now because everything is digital or on an iPod, and people shuffle it. You have to remember what a revolutionary concept - pardon the pun - it was because I think Frank felt that when people would drop that needle down, there's 15 or 18 or 20 minutes on one side, and it's pretty jarring if you're all over the place with a ballad, then a tempo song. He really came up with the idea of doing these concept albums where they thematically, musically and orchestrally would fit together, and a lot of work went into that."
