Song of the Day: Home Is The Place

The song of the day for Tuesday, October 11, 2022, is “Home Is The Place.”

About This Song

“Home Is The Place” was written by Jule Styne and Stephen Sondheim in 1960. After their collaboration on the brilliant musical Gypsy, Styne expressed an interest in continuing their work together, resulting in two songs: “Home Is The Place” and “Come Over Here.”

About This Version

Tony Bennett recorded “Home Is The Place” on April 16, 1968, for the album Yesterday I Heard The Rain. Torrie Zito wrote the arrangement.

“Home Is The Place,” as well as Yesterday I Heard The Rain is available on Apple Music.
