en We're trying to find the heart and soul of each of these songwriters. The through-line is going to be basically how (Porter and Gershwin) worked and what inspired them. They're two of the most popular American songwriters; we're trying to show how Gershwin, in everything he did, tried to be American: He spoke more to the common man. And even though Cole Porter was from Peru, his music reflects more of a European style, so we're going to focus on that and how different they are.

en European musicians didn't learn popular music, whereas in America we did, ... So you played in bands, you played in orchestras, you played everything.

As a pop songwriter, you can be here today and gone tomorrow. Babyface and his music have withstood the test of time. This project is a tribute to a great songwriter in the traditions of Cole Porter, Holland/Dozier and Irving Berlin. They all had the ability, through a lyric or a note, to find the common ground that unites us all, to find that something that thousands and thousands of people can feel intimately and profoundly. That is power, and that’s what these songs have. The music of Babyface goes straight to the heart.
