Decent start so far, can't say I didn't enjoy either of these though but its kinda hard to dislike any of these jazz songs outside of how they fair relative to other jazz songs lol.

I certainly prefer Bessie Smithโs song over โGloomy Sundayโ. Otherwise, my ranks indicate that the 20โs is not the most ideal time period for me to find jazz favorites.

If I hadnโt known โFeverโ was from the year 1958, I would have never guessed it was that old because of its fresh sound quality.

This song's presence is largely for efficiency reasons. I used to have different and separate Sinatra and Basie songs in this set, but as I started filling in the gaps for standards, I also had to scour my brain for if I could condense some representation with collaborations. I do still love this song, of course; don't get me wrong 10

โFly Me To The Moonโ is probably one of my favorite songs to be covered on singing shows (as long as the singer has a great voice like Sinatraโs).
I hate to rank Louis Armstrong last but I prefer other songs from him that feature more of his raspy voice.

For the record, I liked this but gravitated to it the least compared to the other songs cause it didn't really grab me too much as it progressed onwards.

One of these jazz songs is an undeniable classic, but the other one is absolutely my top favorite from this jazz favorites series.
