Mark Steyn's American Songbook

Mark Steyn's American Songbook

Mark Steyn's writing on the great American songbook has been hailed by composers, lyricists and connoisseurs of good music, from The Tonight Show's Steve Allen to the Pet Shop Boys. The former called Broadway Babies Say Goodnight 'Mark Steyn's dazzling commentary on popular music culture', and the latter consulted it when writing their own musical. So here by popular demand is Steyn's take on some of his favorite lyrics, some of his favorite music, and what happens when you put them together to create a classic song. This volume includes essays on pop standards from The Way You Look Tonight to Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow! to I've Got You Under My Skin: the songs that get under your skin and stay.
