Dorothy Fields
Dorothy Fields (1905-1974) was one of the great Broadway lyricists, who wrote popular songs for revues, films and shows for nearly 50 years.
The hallmarks of her work are a touching simplicity of expression and a gift for matching the rhythms of colloquial speech to music.
Dorothy Fields wrote well over 400 songs.
Her best-known standards include :
I Can’t Give You Anything But Love ??? Don’t Blame Me
On The Sunny Side Of The Street ??? A Fine Romance
I’m In The Mood For Love ??? The Way You Look Tonight
Big Spender ??? If My Friends Could See Me Now
This week’s Russell Davies show on Radio 2 was devoted to Dorothy Fields. Listen to it online until July 30th 2006.
