Composed by Jule Styne and Leo Robin. Arranged by Dave Gingras and John E. Dosher. This edition: pdf. Big Band, Broadway, Film/TV, Jazz, Musical/Show, Standards. Score. 2 pages. DAVID LEE GINGRAS #1366503. Published by DAVID LEE GINGRAS (A0.1806311)."Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend" is a jazz song written for the stage musical Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1949), with music by Jule Styne and lyrics by Leo Robin. Carol Channing introduced the song in the original Broadway production, and Marilyn Monroe followed in the film version, performing it in a strapless, “now-iconic satin pink gown” in a rendition ranked by the American Film Institute the 12th best film song of the 20th century. This version features a root-based chord blocking that John and I have used in a number of our arrangements - we hope you like what we've done with this grand old show tune!
