Songbook: Jimmy Van Heusen

Behind some of the most beloved lyrics in pop history lie melodies written by Jimmy Van Heusen. Working with Sammy Cahn, he crafted the soaring arrangement that Frank Sinatra took to new heights on the bended-knee love song "All the Way". And when Bing Crosby asked "Would you like to swing on a star?", the perky, bobbing refrain came straight from Van Heusen's inimitable pen.
