About Cry Me a River

"Cry Me a River" stands as a landmark torch song that launched Julie London's career in 1955. The song's origin story involves Arthur Hamilton, London's former classmate who composed it initially for Ella Fitzgerald. Through an interesting twist of fate and the intervention of London's then-husband Jack Webb (famous for creating and starring in "Dragnet"), the song found its perfect interpreter. The recording's brilliance lies in its deceptive simplicity. .
