Originally it was a 1945 French song ‘Les feuilles mortes’ (literally ‘The Dead Leaves’). The American songwriter Johnny Mercer wrote English lyrics in 1947 and Jo Stafford was among the first to perform the English version. This a cappella version flows beautifully and is straightforward to sing. Accompanying parts have their own counter melodies to complement the tune.
