Her version of “But Not for Me” on the 3-disc Ira and George Gershwin set. Been listening to that one for 20 years now.

Cotton Tail, which has the best scat singing that I’ve ever heard.

Really hard to choose, but I think Cheek to Cheek.
Maybe “Someone To Watch Over Me.” I should leave this thread before I change my mind again.
