Blue Skies

Story Behind The Song

I have always loved this song, and I really like the way it gets jazzed up the more it heats up...lots of fun instrumentation, lots of bounce and momentum. Perfect for a COMMERCIAL OR MOVIE....

Song Description

Starts slowly with an intro many don't know-about being "blue". Good luck comes along and changes things-they start looking up! A fun bouncy, classic, jazzy rendition with great vocals, good instrumental sound and tempo. Swing and jazz pop feel, overall sense of delight and joy. INSTRUMENTAL only available.

Lyrics

I was blue, just as blue as I could be,
And every day was a cloudy day for me,
Then good luck came a knockin at my door,
Skies were gray, but they're not gray anymore!

Blue Skies, smilin at me,
Nothing but blue skies, do I see,
Blue birds, singing a song,
Nothing but bluebirds,
All day long.

Never saw the sun, shining so bright,
Never saw things a goin so right,
Noticing the days, hurrying by,
When you're in love, my how they fly!

Those blue days, all of them gone!
Nothing but blue skies, from now on!

Great cover of a very popular jazz favorite...it felt like I was listening to a 1940's big band live...very authentic arrangement...the intro set me up...very surprised when the song kicked in...strong sections...enjoyed the trumpet and the vocal...this is a period piece and has lots of cinematic and tv uses as well as tv commercials...hopefully you'll be able to work something out with the original copyright owners for sync licensing...not sure if this is public domain or not...great job...

Great job as always!! Love the big band sound!!

Very nice jazz selection
