CINDY-ELLA (or I Gotta Shoe) is a British musical from the 1960s that existed both as a TV special and a subsequent stage production. In a quaint and dated way, it offered a retelling of Cinderella using jazzy arrangements of spirituals. Though most of the score consists of pre-existing songs with modified lyrics, it did boast a few original numbers, like this infectious ditty "Look on Me with a Loving Eye". One of these days I'll write more about this show, but for now, enjoy.
"Look On Me with a Loving Eye," by Caryl Brahms nad Ned Sherrin, performed by Cleo Laine (!) and Cy Grant
