gershwin. porter. berlin. rodgers and hart. i love a good standard. there's just something about the music of the 30's and 40's that has resonated with me ever since i was a kid.
today's song is an excellent example of what i love about this genre. it is one that i had not heard previously by a pair of songwriters with whom i was not familiar but who were writing at the same time as the more well-known composers that i referred to at the beginning of this entry.
while the song may have been unknown to me before, i am definitely glad i know it now. i hope you feel the same after listening to it.
