Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps - Doris Day - MP3 instrumental karaoke

"Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps" may have journeyed from its Spanish-language roots towards an English-language classic but it's certainly retained its Cuban flavour. This shuffling showstopper about a man yearning for a woman's love was penned by Cuban songwriter Osvaldo Farres in 1947, originally under the Spanish title of "Quizas, Quizas, Quizas," and transformed into a hit that year by Puerto Rican-born singer and songwriter Bobby Capó. Doris Day made a bid for the definitive English cover version nearly twenty years later, recording the song for her 1965 album Latin for Lovers. However, "Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps" became forever burned into the collective cultural consciousness when it was featured in the classic 1992 movie Strictly Ballroom—directed and co-written by Baz Luhrmann in his feature directorial debut—soundtracking a particularly standout backstage dance scene between Scott and Fran.
