SUIKERBOSSIE

Boeren 'Blue Grass'

"Sugar Bush" is a popular song composed by Fred Michel (1898-1969) in 1930.
It was translated into English (Sugar Bush) then recorded and sung by Eve Boswell in front of the Queen. Fred Michel sold the rights to Polliacs 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.

The song is based on a traditional Afrikaans song by the name of Suikerbossie.
