“Quizás, Quizás, Quizás” performed by Ibrahim Ferrer and Omara Portuondo.
Like most people I know, I first came across this song in Wong Kar Wai’s movie, In the Mood for Love.
Although the choice of Nat King Cole’s version in this movie is masterful, I’ve lately been rummaging the internet for different versions. This certainly caught my attention.
Their harmonies are wonderful, but I prefer a little more oomph in the song’s performance. I love Doris Day’s version the most, but I also really enjoy Lila Downs’ take on it, as well as Celia Cruz’s.
