James Ingram Ft. Patti Austin - How Do You Keep the Music Playing (1982)

Описание: “How Do You Keep the Music Playing?” is a soulful duet by James Ingram and Patti Austin, composed by Michel Legrand with lyrics by Alan and Marilyn Bergman. Originally written for the 1982 film Best Friends, the song was later released as a single in 1983 and featured on Ingram’s album It’s Your Night.

The lyrics explore the delicate balance of sustaining love over time, asking heartfelt questions like:

“How do you keep the music playing? How do you make it last?”

It’s a timeless ballad that’s been covered by legends like Tony Bennett, Barbra Streisand, and Celine Dion. If you’re in the mood for a live performance, the YouTube rendition with the Boston Pops Orchestra is especially moving.

These two collaborated on the song "Baby Come to Me" which was a huge hit. You can find that song on my channel by clicking the link here    • Patti Austin & James Ingram - Baby Come to...
