That Was Yesterday (Donna Fargo song) : ウィキペディア英語版 | That Was Yesterday (Donna Fargo song)
"That Was Yesterday" is a song written and recorded by American country music singer Donna Fargo. It was released in April 1977 as the first single from the album ''Fargo Country''. The song became her sixth and final No. 1 song on the ''Billboard magazine'' Hot Country Singles chart. ==Background== When she first tried cutting "That Was Yesterday," Fargo was dissatisfied with the finished product - she had claimed the song sounded too much like Patsy Cline, and instead she (Fargo) was more of a writer/interpreter, she told Patsi Cox of ''Country Soung Roundup'' magazine.〔"The Billboard Book of Number One Country Hits" (Billboard Books, Watson-Guptill Publications, New York, 1991, ISBN 0-82-307553-2), p. 196.〕 But since Warner Bros. Records had already committed to the track, she decided to take a copy of the session tape home and attempt to come up with a better product. At first, she had written some prose, envisioning alternating between the existing vocal track and a speaking part. But nobody liked that either. Then, she decided to recite the lyrics from start to finish, with a chorus backing her. That version worked, and it was released as a single.〔 The finished product, styled in the country pop vein, reflects on a relationship that had just ended. The narrator speaks about the many good times and positive attributes of her now-ex. She then tries to point at what caused the relationship to fail and that all those good times shared together are now a thing of the past, but then admits she still has a positive outlook for both of their futures.
