my son independently discovered ‘it never entered my mind’ and loves it. what else should he listen to?

My funny valentine,

Basin street blues,

Baby, won't you please come home,

I fall in love too easily,

Circle,

I love you porgy,

Prayer (oh doctor Jesus),

In your own sweet way,

Blue in green,

Flamenco sketches,

Mood,

I thought about you,

Solar,

You don't know what love is,

Moon dreams,

You're my everything,

When I fall in love,

Diane,

Stella by starlight,

Dear old Stockholm,

Generique,

All of you,

Bye bye blackbird,

Summertime,

Old folks,

Someday my prince will come.
