Orson Welles' album, I Know What It Is To Be Young, is a remarkable piece of work that showcases the legendary filmmaker's musical talent. The album comprises of 12 tracks, each one a testament to Welles' ability to blend different genres of music with his unique style.
The album opens with the title track, which is a melancholic ballad that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The track features Welles' deep, rich voice, which is accompanied by a haunting piano melody. The album then moves on to more upbeat tracks such as "My Heart's in the Highlands" and "The Happy Time," which showcase Welles' versatility as a musician.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Way You Look Tonight," which features Welles' spoken-word poetry set to a jazz-inspired instrumental. The track is a perfect example of Welles' ability to create a mood and atmosphere through his music.

Hugely influential and renown film actor/director/producer/screenwriter and all around provocateur. His voice and texts have been used in a variety of recordings.
I Know What It Is To Be Young is a must-listen for any fan of Orson Welles or anyone who appreciates good music. The album is a testament to Welles' talent as a musician, and it is a shame that he did not pursue it further.
These are quality songs, they don't come any better : beautiful melody, superb meaningful lyrics by one of the greatest actors from the golden era of Hollywood!!! I simply cannot understand how 5 people gave it the thumb down : they certainly have a heart of steel, they no nothing about good music!!! They must be following those lousy so called artists of today's generation, very sad indeed!!! Thanks for uploading it for us individuals with a heart!!!
Off.. Face’te müzik yayınlamak elbette demode oldu ama ben sadece ithaf etmek istiyorum! Başta oğluma, Ogan’ıma.. Sonra PERİ’me.. Nedense oğlumun face arkadaşı bu yürekli kızı gerçekten seviyorum! Sonra.. Serkan’ıma, Esat’ıma.. uzatmadan tüm dostlarıma ithaf etmek istiyorum. Bana inanan/seven bir dostsanız dinlemeniz maalesef zorunlu..
