“Hurry Home” tells of love in a long marriage. With lyrics by Marilyn and Alan Bergman, the song was originally sung by Errico under the credits of the 2013 film Max Rose. This new intimate, jazz-inflected acoustic setting on the single uses a small band arranged by producer Rob Mathes, and featuring guitarist and frequent Errico sideman Ben Butler.

Legrand (composer of film scores to films Yentl, The Umbrellas of Cherbourg and The Thomas Crown Affair) first collaborated with Errico when she stared in his Broadway musical, Amour. Errico earned a Tony Award nomination for Best Actress for her performance in that show. She then recorded an album of Legrand’s music, Legrand Affair, backed by the composer conducting his own orchestral arrangements with the Brussels Philharmonic. (via Playbill.com)
