OH LOOK AT ME NOW - Free Jazz Leadsheet

“Oh, Look at Me Now” was composed by Joe Bushkin with lyrics by John DeVries in 1941. The song gained fame through its bright melody and upbeat swing feel, characteristic of early 1940s jazz-pop crossovers.

The first recording was by Frank Sinatra with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra, featuring a swinging rhythm section and smooth melodic phrasing. Its structure follows a 32-bar AABA form, lending itself to both vocal and instrumental interpretation.

Later recordings by Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole, and Harry James have maintained its popularity. The lyrics celebrate newfound joy and romantic elation, making it a lively and expressive standard for jazz performers.
