I first heard this song in the movie Green Mile.
Cheek to Cheek is one of my favourite Jazz number. Ella’s silk smooth voice and Irving’s song writing genius make this the most romantic number.
The very ’in the moment’ song. With one simple idea of dancing cheek to cheek it communicates so much, no chaff
Just check the lyrics:
Heaven, I?m in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we?re out together dancing cheek to cheek
Irving Berlins another famous song (I presume most of you must have heard in the movie Chicago) is ’’There’s No Business Like Show Business, ’’...he has composed more than 1000 song....amazing lyricist..another number of his became so popular that it threatened to replace the American national anthem.
Now this is what I call genius, comming from someone who never learned to read or write music.
His dancing cheek to cheek speaks directly to your soul.
