Song for the Day Blue Skies, by Irving Berlin
To me, Lennon and McCartney were, as a song-writing duo, the best thing since sliced bread. But the "sliced bread" were the great song-writers who came before.... George and Ira Gershwin, Cole Porter, Jerome Kern, Irving Berlin, Rogers and Hammerstein, Rogers and Hart... to name the best known - best known to me, anyway! What fabulous songs they all wrote. As I write, the sky is indeed blue this sunny spring morning, pick your uke up and strum along with me!
Here's my song for the day, arranged for the ukulele by ukulelemike, Mike Lynch.
Blue Skies, written in 1926 by Irving Berlin
