Experience the quintessential charm of the Great American Songbook with this mid-century jazz standard, recorded by modern-day crooner, Seth MacFarlane. His 2025 recording Lush Life debuts long-lost arrangements intended for Frank Sinatra. This kickin' arrangement features tight harmonies, swingin' rhythms that sit right in the pocket, and playful lyrics about finding contentment in life's modest pleasures. Kirby includes the kind of sleek stylizations that vocal jazzers crave, plus a smokin' scat section.
