BOTM - August 2021 I only have eyes for you

[Colin the Bear]

I was pleased to be asked to host August. Last month was beautiful but challenging so I thought I'd keep it simple. I only have eyes for you. Melody by Harry Warren 1934. One of my favoirite composers.
Done to death in adverts and by function bands it surprised me that it hasn"t been BotM before.
Any way...concert C (the happy key) AABA.
There is a verse but I've decided to keep it simple and stick to the chorus...for now
Backing track and lead sheets to follow.

[Colin the Bear]

Oh yes, right. It's a sax forum innit.
I think Scott Hamilton is growing on me.
I'm off to see if I can find some mulligan.

 

[Colin the Bear]
