Sinatra, Nancy - Some Velvet Morning Lyrics
Some velvet mornin' when I'm straight
I'm gonna open up your gate
And maybe tell you 'bout Phaedra
And how she gave me life
And how she made it end
Flowers growing on a hill, dragonflies and daffodils
Learn from us very much, look at us but do not touch
Phaedra is my name
Some velvet mornin' when I'm straight
I'm gonna open up your gate
And maybe tell you 'bout Phaedra
And how she gave me life
And how she made it end
Flowers are the things we know, secrets are the things we grow
Learn from us very much, look at us but do not touch
Phaedra is my name
Some velvet mornin' when I'm straight
Flowers growing on a hill
I'm gonna open up your gate
dragonflies and daffodils
And maybe tell you 'bout Phaedra
Learn from us very much
And how she gave me life
look at us but do not touch
And how she made it end

Song that
A young girl with this name was
a cashier at a convenience shop
in Arizona !
and....?
Sounds so very Lovecraftian.....with a sweet verse....
Always reminds me of listening to The late great Art Bell
Now I understand the original Phil's Spector inspiration
I would have liked to hear what Spector would have done with this song. He couldn't have done it better than Lee (the master) but his take on it would have been interesting.
Some Velvet Morning DOES deserve a full symphonic suite treatment!
WOW!!! What a song, COOL!! song from back then!!!.
Hauntingly beautiful...
Fabulous, haunting, sad and sublime.
All that 60's "Hall Verb'.. Lol!.....Wonderful!
Heard this on Minds. The intro is strange. What a contrast.
Can't help to think of Art mocking JC with this song. RIP Art
Karl & karla
Possibly be the first proto Dream pop/shoegaze song,certainly sounds like it to me.
I highly recommend this album.
Can't stop listening to this song🤗 Lee's voice is so mesmerizing 😍
these two were great together
צמד חמד עם שילוב קולות מדהים בהתאמתו בשיר זה ובאחרים מומלץ מאד להאזנות חוזרות .....
I inherited my mother's copy of this record priceless!
Haunting, nothing like them these days, such a shame...
Kenneth Pack yes there is (Brett’s Phillips and dean ware ham )(Luna)
i was a 15 at this-time-tet-at that time-i love all the great-people of that time-its in my mind
Can anyone recommend anymore songs like this?
@Arvin A *ahem* well......?
@Arvin A Please do
Dunno, maybe Ville Valo and this other woman and their Song "Summer wine".
Çok güzel dinleyin arkadaşlar
Art bell. The cowboy days of Coast to Coast AM.
Oh my Gosh its more sentimental gloomy than the Slowdive version
And it's funny to hear how the same melody sounds typically 60's here and typically 90's with Slowdive
Was playing at the Starbucks at the airport lol
channel zero
Art Bells greatest songs. RIP ART
Old old classic song.. guess who Phaedra is,.
She was a Greek goddess. I loved this song.
Morvern Callar <3
The person singing is NOT Lee hazlewood.. It's a old native American man with a super deep voice..... AKHENATEN!!!! the song is about a 👽alien and the humans grandad singing together...!
"One sunlit morning when I wake...
I'm going to open the book of faith
And maybe tell y'all about aurora
And HOW SHE GAVE US LIFE
AND HOW SHE LANDED HERE...
one sunlit morning when Iiiiiiiiiiiiii waaaaaaakkkkkkeee"...
When somebody tells you not to touch something.... You should 👂listen!
The song is called "one sunlit morning"
Great music, still don't know Phaedra is.
Is there a version where it's only him singing?
Slowdive sent me here.
unknown I heard that cover first also many years ago
Mr. Robot Gracias.
Amazing song
Oh those are the worst, you're straight all morning long and come to find out it was a velvet morning all along.
Totally relate to this song I know just how that feels.
im gonna open up your gate!!!
(12th.5.2018)
These two were the perfect musical partners for each other.
Kind of a Yin and Yang thing going on....
Ride easy, Art Bell. You will be missed. One of his favorite songs that he played between segments on his radio show
One of my all time favorites- the flip of "these boots are made for walking". but this was Lee's fave and it is his best of his compositions.

REST IN PEACE
****ART BELL *****
I heard this song On
dreamland many years ago
john k dreamland?
Rip art bell
great voice ;;;looks very much like her dad;;;
Butcher's block brought me here thanks Syfy
hauntingly beautiful..
Twas a song for droping some LSD
Thought it was about doing drugs
..
In Greek mythology, Phaedra /ˈfiːdrə, ˈfɛdrə/ (Ancient Greek: Φαίδρα, Phaidra) (or Fedra) is the daughter of Minos and Pasiphaë, wife of Theseus, sister of Ariadne, and the mother of Demophon of Athens and Acamas. Phaedra's name derives from the Greek word φαιδρός (phaidros), which meant "bright".
Thank you so much. Most people don't know that.
Italian Americans
channel zero season 3 sends me here
Some velvet morning when I am straight---
A nice eargasm from a long time ago.
i love this song
Beautiful music.
X x x
I LOVE THIS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH
What a bizarre song, this is actually my first time hearing the original, but I can totally see why Lydia lunch & that birthday party guy covered this. I got that 12" sometime way back in the mid 80s probably & didn't even realize it was a cover. The original is equally eerie, except they can actually sing lol
I found this in the bargain bin at the volunteers of America (records)
This song freaks me.
You should hear Lydia Lunch and Rowland S Howard. Brings back some child sexual abuse.
It is a hard to hear if you think about it.
me too' goosebumps
Lynchian
The great Art Bell turned me on to this one.
"East of the Rockies, you're on the line."
As security guard driving home late at night this often on coast to coast am...haunting me
Nancy made an appearance on his show one night to explain the song. Suggested Lee was probably stoned.
I'm here because of art bell. Listening to all of his 90's bumper music.
bir sesi var sanırsın israfil boruyu üflüyor, muhammade oku emri veriliyor
Why did The Verge send me here?
This was one of four LPs that my parents owned in the early 1970s. Absolutely love it .......
Lee motherfuckin Hazelwood
DatGanjaSmuggla What the fuck kind of beat is that?!
That's off the hook, Frankenstein--what kind of glass dick you been smokin' from?
Fuck you Charlie Brown.
@Alex R. The one from yo ass, bitch! :)
@David Fullam That's got potential...
What a tune, the dark voice of L. Hazlewood and the beautiful voice of N. Sinatra, awesome.
one of my favorite albums of all time 💖
Was this song about drugs?
@Fred Thomson Not sure. I think it's just a psychedelic vibe ... but there is an allusion to drinking. Hazlewood denies any reference to drugs (or any meaning) in the lyrics.
Thanks Mr. Robot... great intro... B
yes
me too got this from mr robot
Didn't say it was the pop sound of the 60's but one of many. Pop sounds to me growing up in Scotland would've been The Kinks Waterloo sunset or maybe The Tremeloes Silence is golden. Lee & Nancy had great tunes though..
sound of the sixties...
yosemite sam sound of the sixties, really? this song is much darker and stranger
yosemite sam than the pop of the sixties, I mean. obviously in other genres there was dark and strange
yosemite sam Great YT account name! Do you like Foghorn Leghorn? I do.
My mum loved this song. When someone has gone you have to hold onto things that remind you that it's all good.
William Bailey bless you and take care
Lovely song, remember this from many, many years ago.
Absolument craquante, totalement délicieuse la princesse... l'inspiration de Lee a pris un gros coup de booster avec une pépette comme ça...
heard this song first time on radio the othef day!!! im a big fan as this song is such a great mix that works so well. Beautiful voices....
Nancy and Lee made some great music. He had a very distinctive voice but blended beautifully with Nancy! I love this song! Steve
Vacilla fudge
0:19 - 1:08 1:36 - 2:19
