Song of the Day: I Guess I’ll Have To Change My Plan

The song of the day for Friday, October 23, 2020, is “I Guess I’ll Have To Change My Plan.”

About This Song

“I Guess I’ll Have To Change My Plan” was written by Arthur Schwartz and Howard Dietz for the 1929 revue The Little Show and was introduced by Clifton Webb. It was a featured song in the 1953 movie The Band Wagon, where it was sung by Fred Astaire and Jack Buchanan. Even though the original title was “I Guess I’ll Have to Change My Plan,” it more often is sung with Plans.

About This Version

Tony Bennett recorded “I Guess I’ll Have To Change My Plan” in 1993 for his album Steppin’ Out, which consisted of songs made famous by the great Fred Astaire. Bennett and Ralph Sharon did the arrangement.

“I Guess I’ll Have To Change My Plan,” as well as Steppin’ Out, is available from Apple Music.

And if you have a little extra time today, here’s Fred Astaire and Jack Buchanan in a very classy performance from The Band Wagon.
