Undecided - Ella Fitzgerald - MP3 instrumental karaoke

The songs of the Great American Songbook represent a shared musical canon that is performed and re-interpreted by a wide array of artists. But sometimes there will be a performance that rises above the many takes on the same tune, becoming the definitive version of it. In the case of “Undecided,” a playful standard written by Sid Robin and Charlie Shavers and first published in 1938, that would be the version recorded by legendary singer Ella Fitzgerald in 1939. Featuring an energetic performance by Chick Webb and His Orchestra, the song was released by Decca Records along the B-Side “In the Groove at the Grove.” Later versions of the song would be performed by artists such as The Ames Brothers, Harry James, and Natalie Cole, but it would be Ella Fitzgerald’s Big Band version that would be brought back to prominence with its appearance on the 2015 post-apocalyptic role-playing videogame Fallout 4.
