About "Why Do I Love You" by Helen Carr
Helen Carr's 'Why Do I Love You' is a poised, questioning ballad from the West Coast vocal jazz songbook. The title hangs like a rhetorical sigh, and Carr's clear, unadorned tone turns uncertainty into elegance. The tension is intellectual as much as emotional—a calm query with no answer, only the ache of asking.
