About Everything'due south Coming Upward Roses

"Everything's Coming Upwards Roses" is a vocal from the 1959 Broadway musical Gypsy, with lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and music by Jule Styne. Introduced in the musical's inaugural product past Ethel Merman, "Everything's Coming Upward Roses" became ane of Merman'due south signature songs. According to Sammy Cahn, the song had its genesis in the 1947 musical High Push button Shoes, for which he was the lyricist. Cahn wrote lyrics for a song entitled Betwixt and Between to be sung past a female graphic symbol who can't decide between two men. Jule Styne, who was that musical's composer, wrote music for it, only the director decided the vocal didn't fit well into the evidence and removed information technology. When composing Gypsy, Styne decided to re-use the music for what became "Everything'south Coming Up Roses", with new lyrics by Sondheim. Information technology took Sondheim a calendar week to come up up with the title, the composer recalling: "The point was to [money] a phrase that sounded equally if it had been in the language for years but was in fact invented for the show." (The similar phrase, "come upwards smelling like roses" has in fact been in general usage since the early 20th century.) The show's director Jerome Robbins response to Sondheim's lyric was: "Everything's coming upward Rose'south what?" prompting Sondheim's assurance that "if anybody else has that confusion - everyone connected with the production, in the audition, any of your relatives - I will alter the title.""Everything'due south Coming Up Roses" is performed at the end of the first act of Gypsy past stage mother Rose, who has just learned her daughter June has eloped and in consequence left the vaudeville human action Rose has devoted her life to without a star. Rose's response to brand her other daughter Louise the object of her dubious star-making abilities. The title "Everything'due south Coming Up Roses" is a pun: Likewise "roses" representing happiness, the title is referencing the possessive "Rose's" as in Rose'southward way or "Rose" as in Rose becoming a star herself, through her daughter. Ethel Merman biographer Brian Kellow notes that while objectively "Everything'due south Coming Up Roses" seems "a large, brassy paean to the power of positive thinking...washed in the old, electrical Merman style", inside the context of the show "the song becomes a chilling analogy of blind appetite mixed with megalomania". Kellow quotes Stephen Sondheim to the upshot that while Merman's comedic prowess was "nonpareil" as showcased in Gypsy's first act she lacked the dramatic precision to be fully effective as the play grew darker; thus, Sondheim says of "Everything's Coming Up Roses": "I wrote a song of the type that [Merman] had sung all her life, like [the Annihilation Goes number] 'Blow, Gabriel, Accident', which only requires a trumpet-voiced affirmation." However Sondheim adds that Merman performed the song with an "intensity [which] came as a surprise."The emergence of "Everything'due south Coming Upwards Roses" as a Broadway anthem was evidenced by the song's melody being used to open and close the 14th Tony Awards ceremony held April 24, 1960 (ironically Gypsy took none of its viii Tony nominations). In 1974, Ethel Merman appeared in a television advertising singing new lyrics to the tune of "Everything's Coming Upward Roses" to promote the Colgate-Palmolive dishwashing liquid Vel. That same year Merman recorded "Everything's Coming Up Roses" for her album Merman Sings Merman recorded with Stanley Blackness & the London Festival Orchestra. In 1979, Merman again recorded the song for her album Ethel Merman Disco Album. In her terminal film appearance, a cameo in the 1980 film Airplane! as shell-shocked soldier Lieutenant Hurwitz who believes he is Ethel Merman, Merman sings a few bars of "Everything'south Coming Upwards Roses". more than »
