Few people in ordinary life, of course, can muster the humor, vivacity, and emotional directness that Gershwin brought to his lyrics. His collaboration with his brother Georgeone of the summits of American popular musicproduced masterpieces that reflect, perhaps, the way people would like to talk. Someone to Watch Over Me, Nice Work If You Can Get It, They Cant Take That Away from Me, S Wonderful: these have entered the culture and become part of our common language.
