Sugar Bush (song)

"Sugar Bush" is a popular song composed by Fred Michel (born in 1898) in 1930. It was translated into English then recorded and sung by Eve Boswell[1] in front of the Queen. Fred Michel sold the rights to Polliacks for a small sum of money. A version recorded as a duet by Doris Day and Frankie Laine was the best-known recording and is called the Sugarbush Polka, charting in 1952. Versions by Alma Cogan and Eve Boswell were recorded in the United Kingdom.

The song is based on a traditional South-African song by the name of Suikerbossie ("Sugar Bush" in Afrikaans).
