" It's Only a Paper Moon" Fiona & Maude




Say it is only a paper moon
Sailing over a cardboard sea,
But it wouldn't be make believe
If you believed in me.

Yes, it is only a canvas sky
Hanging over a muslin tree,
But it wouldn't be make believe
If you believed in me.

Without your love,
It's a honky-tonk parade.
Without your love,
It's a melody played in a penny arcade.

It's a Barnum and Bailey world,
Just as phony as it can be,
But it wouldn't be make believe
If you believed in me.

Without your love,
It's a honky-tonk parade.
Without your love,
It's a melody played in a penny arcade.

It's a Barnum and Bailey world
Just as phony as it can be,
But it wouldn't be make believe
If you believed in me.


"It's only A Paper Moon"performed by sisters Fiona Apple and Maude Maggart (real name Amber Maggart), I think that although their voices have very different tones and ranges (Fiona's lower), this jazz standard from 1933 suits their tones very beautifully.
The song has appeared in plays, movies and TV series and has being recorded by some of the biggest names in music, including: Tony Bennett, Rosemary Clooney, Nat King Cole, Natalie Cole, Bing Crosby, Miles Davis, Sammy Davis Jr, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, Barbra Streisand and Rufus Wainwright among many more.
