The Best Song Podcast

Bing Crosby. Frank Sinatra. Irene Cara. Celine Dion. These are some of the most famous singers who have introduced songs that have won the Academy Award for Best Original Song.

But what about the songwriters who created the music and lyrics? You might know Irving Berlin, Stevie Wonder, and Alan Menken. This podcast will introduce you to other legendary songwriters such as Sammy Cahn, Johnny Mercer, Paul Francis Webster, Ray Evans, and Jay Livingston. The stories of creating their songs are just as interesting as the songs themselves.

Settle in for this limited podcast series as creator and host Jeff Commings takes you through 90 years of movie music!
