"my funny valentine" is a timeless classic and a must sing for any serious jazz singer. i think the top three renditions ever are from billie holliday, the original; chet baker, the sexiest and that of chaka khan, most powerful r&b rendition, in that order.
unfortunately those are not available on You Tube except for the chaka khan version but it does not allow embeding it here. please click here, its a great rendition:

believe it or not, here is matt damon in the movie "the talented mr. ripley"
this one is constantine of american idol which i think is a very good version:
happy valentines to all.
