LOUIS ARMSTRONG:
WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD
Who wrote ‘What a Wonderful World’?
The song was written by Bob Thiele and George Weiss.
Thiele was a producer for ABC Records, while Weiss was a songwriter who helped create the hit version of ‘The Lion Sleeps Tonight’ among others.
What a Wonderful World’ is simply about appreciating the beauty of your surroundings.
In the song, Louis sings of seeing various events and natural wonders that make him smile, while also perhaps lamenting the passage of time, noting: “I hear babies crying, I watch them grow, they’ll learn much more than I’ll never know”.
Weiss was also said to be inspired by Armstrong’s ability to bring people of different races together.
