Etta James - My Funny Valentine Lyrics
My funny Valentine
Sweet, comic Valentine
You make me smile with my heart
Your looks are laughable
Unphotographable
Is your figure less than Greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak
Are you smart?
Don't change a hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay little Valentine, stay
And each day will be Valentine's Day
Is your figure less than Greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak
Are you smart?
Don't, please don't change a hair for me
Not if, not if you care for me
Stay little valentine, stay
And each day will be Valentine's
Every day will be, every day will be Valentine's Day

Etta James My Funny Valentine Comments
Kanye can sample anything GREAT and make it another classic of GREATEST!
IS everything Kanye does a sample, real question?
KANYE IS A GAY ASS BITCH
Happy Valentines Day everyone, from 2019;)
Gawdlee

She was the Last of the Rhythm & Blues Singers.
A REAL SINGER, not some ho' Like Beyonce' THAT YOU PIECE OF SHIT, KANYE COMMENTERS, WORSHIP !!!
Get Some Education SCUMBAGS !!!
shut up bro we can respect both
Must share this song with my Facebook family.😍😍😍
Ty😘😘😘😘😘😘
i don't like her singing voice
Etta James was one of the great singers of her time. But 'Funny Valentine' is not one of her best. Listen to her sing 'At Last' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-cbOl96RFM
To hear a magical cover of 'Funny Valentine', listen to Alice Fredenham....

Beautful version of one of my favourite standards.
holy fucc kanye
I play this song every year for myself the day after Valentine's day. Sad beautiful truth.
Kanye West doesn't have a damn thing to do with this song.
God Bless Kanye West
Fuck Kanye
Belíssima!
This gives me nostalgia thinking about how kanye was sampling this 12/13 years ago😫
Addiction😍 imo one of kanyes greatest songs
She sings it well for a bass.
I prefer Sarah Vaughan's or Johnny Mathis' version.
I performed this song sailing on a cruise around the Mediterranean with David Curtis playing the piano It was amazing experience!!!
Yeezy taught me
BEST VERSION OF THIS SONG THAT WILL EVER EXIST. AMAZING
gahdamn I'm the motherfuckin shieet (kari faux- gahdamn) :')
kanye finds the best samples man
LiL COFFiN THE BEST. Kanye may be many things, but with music, he’s an absolute genius.
Can't take that away from him. His ears are so special and unique. Unlike Puff Daddy, who would just sample any and everything that sounded good. Kanye actually took the time to "TWEAK IT" with Kanye's special sauce 🔥🔥🔥🔥😂🔥🔥🔥🔥💜💜 Daaaaammmm Yeezy Yeezy
God bless I found a track like this at this moment.
Dziękuję Etta
Yep. Brilliant.
SOME REASONS I LOVE KANYE WEST FOR THIS ONE....
+GEORGE SEMEN I DONT GET IT...THTS NOT KANYE!
+jane hyden yeah! I know but he sampled this classic, he made me know this song.
GEORGE SEMEN wow.
What do you say to that?
Magdalena Amor listen to this then Addiction by Kanye West
WHY EVERYTHING SUPPOSED TO BE BAD MAKES ME FEEL SO GOOD
MAN I TRIED TO STOP I TRIED THE BEST I COULLD BUUUUUT
@AD4F AD4F
IVE BEEN AFFECTED BYY NOT ONE, BUT ALL THREE
Grom Hellscream when i say i lived by this song let alone the album. omg life!
just sat here and cried
This is the only version...all others, are but shadows, of the real thing...
actually chet baker was the real thing.
Hands down., my favorite version of this song! <3
Kanye West- Addiction. :) damn, how did he find this sample. omg, so beautiful.
john paul You're making a fool of yourself.
What are you talking about? This is a classic song recorded by many great artists.
N ice what do you mean how did he find this people like Kanye listen to Old School grew up play music like this he has no choice but to know it that's why he's a real artist
N ice ,
j.p. most people probably searched this song after finding out this was the sample used in addiction. so that’s where the views came from
Why does this song make me feel like a piece of my heart is missing?? Like I got all teary eyed listening to this.....
+Leroy Kazama I feel the same way too. Have you heard Chaka Khan sing it?
@G MAC nah bruh, ima check it out
+G MAC Yeah Chaka killed it too
we love who we love... it sucks
with few exceptions Chet's horn is perfect for her and she is perfect.
Just found a song to play during my mom's funeral. beautifully sung.
+Marcos Calderon bless you
Marcos Calderon RIP🙏🏽
Marcos Calderon RIP to mom
Marcos Calderon keep pushing bro
kanye west
Remarkable unique version.
ohhhh my heart ♡♡♡
my very favorite version of this song..
Behold the way our fine feathered friend,
His virtue doth parade
Thou knowest not, my dim-witted friend
The picture thou hast made
Thy vacant brow, and thy tousled hair
Conceal thy good intent
Thou noble upright truthful sincere,
And slightly dopey gent
You're my funny valentine,
Sweet comic valentine,
You make me smile with my heart.
Your looks are laughable, un-photographable,
Yet, you're my favorite work of art.
Is your figure less than Greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak, are you smart?
But, don't change a hair for me.
Not if you care for me.
Stay little valentine, stay!
Each day is Valentine's Day
Is your figure less than Greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak, are you smart?
But, don't change a hair for me.
Not if you care for me.
Stay little valentine, stay!
Each day is Valentine's Day
love the trumpet in this song beautiful. first heard it when enjoying a coffee in the sun.
who was the guitar player for Time After Time? Anybody?
Wow, beautiful, great choice for a sample Ye, this song is lovely in its own way as well
To the 25 souls who felt to dislike this you have my full support. Get well soon.
awesomely elegant and resonant. Wonderful Etta James, completely natural
+Mike Parker Must Agree with you alexis, Mike Parker and Cosette. Love, Etta this is such a gentle ballad for her. RIP Etta James. Ted, sorry you hear it that way.
a little piece of my heart...
Кто искал эти слова из минуса Быба-Кстати лайк)
I'd like to hear Adele sing a cover to this! Kanye brought me to this btw since of course I wasn't born in the time when music was actualy good and there were no samples...
le wrong generation
this is boring compared to kanyes song. don't like it
dae music instantly became bad after 2000
shut up you idiot
Music has never been bad.
Amazing!!! I love Etta
+Cosette Lamonsky Must Agree with you alexis, Mike Parker and Cosette. Love, Etta this is such a gentle ballad for her. RIP Etta James. Ted, sorry you hear it that way.
She sounds stoned
wow I guess everyone hones in on how she used to drink/drug. I don't think she sounds stoned at all.
+Ted A. McElroy Must Agree with you alexis, Mike Parker and Cosette. Love, Etta this is such a gentle ballad for her. RIP Etta James. Ted, sorry you hear it that way.
I really wish I would have known about this song sooner.
Grey's Anatomy brought me here.
Etta James, Chet Baker ... The best brought me here.......
Alice brought me here too
Everyone check out Kanye West-Addiction
this song is so beautiful.Listening to it cuts me up inside.
I'm sure people would. It's just people these days are so susceptible to just listen to what the media puts on a plate for them e.g. bieber, etc.
My name is Kim Sam Soon brought me here lol
To rock, rap and ect...*
I agree; no one would know who Etta James is if it weren't for sampling and remixes. I was lucky enough to grow up listening to everything from Etta James, nat king col, and glen Cambell ton
He moved on when his heart got shot down, apparently
I agree with you 100%. A lot of the anti-sampling people don't seem to realize that younger people get interested in the sampled artists... and actually want to spend their money on their records and concerts. Anybody who thinks sampling is horrible, go ask George Clinton what he thinks. Or David Axelrod. Or get a Ouija board and ask James Brown. XD I think the answer will surprise you.
Knowing good music brought me here.
I don't think it's sad at all. It's because of people like Kanye so many of our youth who aren't familiar with legends like Etta can now be introduced to her music. Which in my opinion is a good thing.
me too & she sang this song!
I'm so sad to read "Kanye West brought me here". Etta James MUST brought all of you here! She's a LEGEND!
Wtf happened to this kanye
To bad people recognise this as a sampled hip hop beat instead of the beautiful jazz classic it is.
Gawd I miss Etta
Kanye West brought me here
My heart belongs to the blued god put them there. One day..........
Kanye picked up a jewell from the past and represented in a way that connects with hip hop youth. Brilliant.
This song is so sad. An internal fight for self love.
Never thought I'd sat this but I prefer Alice's version it was so emotional she really reminds me of Amy even the way she moves her body on stage the hand movements and head back eyes closed.
Same here Alfie :)
!!!!!!!!!
she really sang this song good,...............she did this song justice........I liked her but my love for the soul and jazz and the 30'-40'-50' and 60' brought me here
Is your figure less than greek
Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak
Are you smart?
But don't you change one hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay little valentine stay
Each day is valentines day
Me too! Fantastic singer.
Grey's Anatomy brought me here <3
kan yeezy wats gooood
Kanye brought me here
GAWD DAMN KANYE WITH THE HEAT
Love it.
AMBER HOLCOMB did it best
I wanna learn this song on guitar, but I have no idea where I could look for a tab. Anyone know where?
Not loving someone in spite of their imperfections, but loving them FOR their imperfections.
what is this song about?
"Good artists copy, great artists steal." - Pablo Picasso
Are you saying that kanye is only a good artist?
KANYE ALSO SAMPLED THROUGH THE FIRE BY SHAKACON CLASSIC SONG BTW
