Andrew Lloyd Webber: The Queen's favourite songs are Miss Otis Regrets and People Will Say We're In Love

The Queen's favourite songs include Miss Otis Regrets and People Will Say We're In Love, Andrew Lloyd Webber has said.

The musical impresario recently co-wrote Sing, the Queen's Diamond Jubilee song, with Gary Barlow.

He told the Radio Times how the Queen "loved" the small birthday celebration he held for her at his house where some of her favourite tunes, including Miss Otis Regrets and People Will Say We're In Love, were played.

Miss Otis Regrets was written about a woman who shoots "her lover down" in 1934 by Cole Porter.

People Will Say We're In Love is a show tune from the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical Oklahoma!
