Loving this, my Grandad used to whistle this song an awful lot. Nice memory, thank you, Sandra.

Thanks Sandra. This old tune was one of the first songs I heard. My dad had an old Victrola playing 78 rpms. Think it was Bing Crosby. He had a singing group called The Rhythm Boys who w e re part of the Paul Whiteman Orch. What great musical days. You're the Queen of chord melody. 💞💞💞💞Fran

Beautiful tune and great tutorial!

I'm always so looking forward to receive the notification each thursday on my phone, that you uploaded another tutorial. I was so happy to see you did Blue Skies, one of my favorite jazz tunes! Thanks, Sandy!

good arrangement, chord voicing, tutorial & performance!

This is fantastic, you are a superb teacher thanks so much 🙏

OMG Sandra thank you so much! It was my request. Love you! Im so happy cause i love this tune and now i can finally play it to my relatives!

Sweet, just like you! Your lessons are the best YT has to offer! Love it. Would love tos en you a little hear now, but I don't know how to do it, lol.

Excellent chord changing in this performance. I have become a big fan of your lessons and learning your renditions.

Sandra Sherman, grrrrretings from the US of A! You are a treasure!

Beautiful standard and it will take me a while to get it, the chords are great. Thanks

Fancy finger work on the bridge, good on you Sandra, sounds great! I love it! 🎼🎸🏆 🙋🏻‍♂️

Very beautiful arrangement.👍👍🎸

Gahreetings!! (Always look forward to that😄). Wow, this one goes back a way (~20’s??). I always thought that bridge section reminded me of another piece, but couldn’t come up with it! Nice job, Sandra!!😄👍

what a cute song 👍🏻 new for me but already in my practicing list 😉

That`s a nice one. I know it from a tv commercial, but forgot which one.

Exelent...like always..🎼🌎🎸

Sandra, I love your You Tube channel. I recently bought that bundle with all those songs and I'm loving it. I do have a request. If ever possible, at some point, could you do a chord Melody of "I Loves You Porgy". Billie Holliday does version that's just beautiful. Your arrangements are so good, was hoping one day you'd do that song. Thanks

I didn't know this is considered a jazz standard. I love this song, is it played at jazz sessions, or is it more of a crooner song?
