I have a weirdly visceral distaste for "Blues in the Night" yet seem unable to bring myself to delete from my iTunes the ten versions of it I've accumulated because it feels disrespectful to Judy, Ella, etc. This is a problem.
Whistle, I'm happy to point out, does not rhyme with trestle.
Boy oh boy wait till we get to how I respond to Così fan tutte....
OTOH I'm now listening to Rosie Clooney singing "Why Shouldn't I?" and Cole Porter just rhymed "persona grata" and "data" so perhaps I should just count my blessings.
Not being able to recall off the top of my head who wrote the song, I'd've bet 20 bucks that it was a Mercer lyric.
