OK, back to the 30's: Mexican composer Maria (Mendez) Grever wrote this pop standard in Spanish in '34. Stanley Adams added English lyrics. First recorded by Stanley Roy & His Orchestra. Dinah Washington's '59 version won her a Grammy for Best R&B Performance and was her 1st hit, peaking at #8. It was inducted into the Grammy Hall Of Fame in '98. Part of the "Casino" soundtrack ('95). Spanish and English titles?
