"Sugar Bush" is a popular song composed by Fred Michel in 1930. It was translated into English by Josef Marais.[1] Michel sold the rights to Polliacks for a small sum of money.[2] The song is based on a traditional South-African song, "Suikerbossie" ("Sugar Bush" in Afrikaans).
A version recorded as a duet by Doris Day and Frankie Laine was the best-known recording, and appeared on the first UK Singles Chart in November 1952, peaking at number 8 in a total chart run of eight weeks.[3] A version by South African singer Eve Boswell[4] was also recorded in the United Kingdom.
