Song of the Day: The Best Is Yet To Come

The song of the day for Wednesday, November 1, 2023, is “The Best Is Yet To Come.”

About This Song

“The Best Is Yet To Come” was written in 1959 by Cy Coleman and Carolyn Leigh. Some say that the song was written for Tony Bennett; in any case, it’s strongly identified with him and he regularly sang it at all of his concerts. Other recordings include those by Peggy Lee, Frank Sinatra, and Ella Fitzgerald.
