Clint Eastwood - Pardner - I Still See Elisa (Paint Your Wagon) (New Remastered)

“I Still See Elisa“ wurden von den Komponisten Frederick Loewe und dem Lyriker Alan Jay Lerner geschrieben. Der zweite Song im 1969er Film “Paint Your Wagon“, wird von Clint Eastwood als Pardner gesungen. Pardner räumt nach dem Lied, Ben Rumson ein, dass es keine Elisa gibt. Er hat den Namen irgendwo gesehen, mochte es und schrieb das Lied um ihn herum. Und ja, Eastwood hat das Lied wirklich gesungen. Like most of the other songs in Paint Your Wagon, “I Still See Elisa“ was written by the regular team of composer Frederick Loewe and lyricist Alan Jay Lerner. The second song in the 1969 film (the Broadway production opened in 1951), it is performed by a nostalgic Clint Eastwood as Pardner. Perhaps nostalgic is not the right word, for shortly Pardner admits to Ben Rumson that there is no Elisa, he just saw the name somewhere, liked it, and wrote the song around it. And yes, Eastwood did actually perform it.
