Astaire was the favorite singer of many composers of his day because he sang the songs exactly as written. This became "square" in the 1940s, especially with the extreme vulgarity of Sinatra and his imitators - the notes and rhythms were thrown out in favor of jazzier renditions. In later years, even Astaire succombed to this "style". I prefer my Gershwin as written. Gershwin was a genius, America's greatest composer. His music never needs "improving".

Isn't it interesting to hear the way his singing style changed over the years?
