Always at The Carlyle (2018)

Kelli O'Hara: Self

Quotes 

• Kelli O'Hara : I grew up in Oklahoma. I wasn't singing on big stages, I was singing in people's living rooms. So, I knew that being at the Cafe Carlyle was going to feel like this small, intimate space were you can reach out and touch the people and they hear it in a different way. And, then, so, I chose to sing a song called, "Make Someone Happy" which everyone knows but I don't think people listen to it enough. The lyric is, "Fame, if you win it, Comes and goes in minute, Where's the real stuff in life to cling to, Love is the answer, Someone to love is the answer, And make them happy, And then you'll be happy too." So, I would finish my set with that song and that story. And the reason for that, is that intimate thing. The audience there, I think, really loves that kind of thing. Because, we go back to a time when things were simpler, and things were more - real, maybe, a little bit. More face-to-face. More human. And I'll always go and have me some of that if you're offering.
