Tangerine was composed by Victor Schertzinger, with lyrics by Johnny Mercer. It was first introduced in the 1942 film The Fleet’s In. I Remember You was also written for this film by Schertzinger and Mercer. This a beautifull tune, and as for every Great American Songbook piece, its highly recommended to check out the lyrics. It’s “jam session” key is commonly F major.
