Today, we want to spend some time diving deep into one of George Gershwin’s best love songs, with matching magical lyrics by Ira. It was never conceived of as a lush song, but later orchestrators turned it into one. We have three versions to show you the original, the 1957 remake and the 1959 Ella Fitzgerald/Nelson Riddle version.

First, here is Adele Astaire and Bernard Clifton, with George Gershwin at the piano in 1927.
