        Well, a bauble is a small trinket. I didn't think the thing on a hat had a name. Cool.

          There's a jazz standard (that's also part of the great American songbook) called "Baubles, Bangles and Beads".

          I looked for a cover but it's one of those songs with awful covers... Sappy. Syrupy with strings. Bad bossa nova. Or even easy listening.

          Frank Sinatra's cover could be in a movie called Austin Powers Goes to Rio. He was a fantastic vocalist in his wheelhouse but his effort at bossa nova is very embarrassing. He sounds like a parody impression of himself - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWAPCgWl5J8&t=11s
