I'm behind in writing about this, but after I listened to the first disc of
On Air - Live at the BBC, Volume 2, I realized something about "Beautiful Dreamer." The syllables of "anywhere" in the line "Since I met you, baby, that girl ain't a-anywhere" are all sung to different pitches (I think it's A E D the first time and - with a melisma - A E D E the second), musically giving a sense of breadth.
