Someone to watch over me:  George and Ira Gershwins' iconic love request. It features a long verse or introductory section that sets the mood and subject for what will follow. ending in that plaintive request for " Someone to watch over me." Sung by elegant Ella with a marvellous arrangemnt by Nelson Riddle, it is an example of what I consider to be the greatest of all the VERVE produced songbooks and largely due to the inventive and highly varied Riddle arrangements.
