  • Lush Life ist ein von Billy Strayhorn geschriebener Jazzstandard, mit dem er 1938 bei Duke Ellington vorspielte. Der ursprüngliche Titel, Life is lonely, wurde im Laufe der Zeit nach der Textzeile I live a lush life in Lush Life umbenannt. Erst 1948 wurde die Ballade veröffentlicht. (de)

  • Lush Life è uno standard jazz composto da Billy Strayhorn nel 1933 all'età di 18 anni. È uno dei quaranta standard più conosciuti, e fu uno dei motivi che, nel 1938, spinsero Duke Ellington ad assumere Strayhorn. È anche, assieme a Take the A Train, una delle sue composizioni più famose. (it)
  • Lush Life is een jazzstandard, geschreven door componist Billy Strayhorn (1933-1938). Hij componeerde zowel de muziek als de tekst. In 1938 speelde hij het nummer voor aan bigbandleider Duke Ellington, die hem daarop aannam in zijn orkest. Het nummer beschrijft de gevoelens over het nachtleven na een gestrande affaire, met jazz en cocktails en in het gezelschap van trieste meisjes die er slecht uitzien. Strayhorn schreef het grootste deel van het lied toen hij 16 was. Het zou zijn handelsmerk worden. (nl)
