Centerpiece (song)

Centerpiece is a 1958 jazz standard. It was written by Harry Edison and Jon Hendricks.[1]

The song is a love song, with the lyrics indicating that the singer feels incomplete without his lover. Each of the two verses ends with the couplet:

But nothing's any good without you
'Cause baby you're my centerpiece

Covers

Joni Mitchell incorporated the song into a medley, with her own "Harry's House", on her 1975 album The Hissing of Summer Lawns. Jazz singer Roseanna Vitro recorded the song on her 1984 debut LP, Listen Here.

gollark: It would be too annoying to write that to the necessary obfuscation standards anyway.
gollark: The potatoblob does not contain any "botnet controller" stuff.
gollark: * L843
gollark: Why would I put a "botnet controller" in there? It's in unobfuscated plaintext at... L600 or so?
