Chansons reprises : If I were a bell

If I were a bell (Si j'étais une cloche)

Chanson composée par Frank Loesser pour sa comédie musicale de 1950 Guys and Dolls. Elle sera interprétée dans cette comédie par le personnage de soeur Sarah, un rôle créé par Isabel Bigley à Broadway et immortalisé sur l'album original de la distribution.

Ce morceau devient un standard de jazz après son interprétation par Miles Davis sur l'album Relaxin' with the Miles Davis quintet (1958) paru chez Prestige. Elle deviendra emblématique de Davis et figurera sur de nombreux enregistrements. Elle sera également reprise par de nombreux musiciens de jazz et restera une incontournable des jam sessions.
