Cole’s 1952 album Unforgettable opens with its superb title track, which was composed by Irving Gordon – who wrote ‘Me, Myself And I’ for Billie Holiday – and stands as a career-defining performance among the best Nat King Cole songs. His smooth, nuanced delivery is pitch-perfect and enhanced by subtle accompaniment from an orchestra arranged by Nelson Riddle. Cole loved the tune and recorded several versions, including a sparkling two-minute take for his 1955 album Nat King Cole Sings For Two In Love. Cole’s version has featured in several movies and was the closing song in the 1993 movie Groundhog Day. As Cole said: Most songs have the same story – about love – and you’re either winning or losing.
