...particularly loves Harold Arlen and tells us so. In this case explanation aren't needed, for his rendition of "Sleeping Bee" makes his affection abundantly clear. When Hammond sings Arlen, he lowers his voice considerably and we understand. He shows us that the last lines of the song ("A Sleeping Bee done told me/I will walk with my feet off the ground/When my one true love I has found.") are special to him. He makes them special for everyone listening as well...
