Description

Sammy Cahn earned the first of five consecutive Academy Award nominations in 1948, working with longtime collaborator Jule Styne for Doris Day's film debut Romance on the High Seas. Leo Robin, already an Academy Award winner, had two songs nominated that year, but the hot young songwriters Jay Livingston and Ray Evans were making a statement with a hit song for Bob Hope.
Host Jeff Commings is ready to tell all the stories about these songwriters and the nominated songs they wrote on this episode of The Best Song Podcast.
