AABA song form

AABA song form was very popular in American pop and jazz music from the first half of the 20th century. It is comprised of an A section, typically 8 bars, followed by a repetition of A, often with different lyrics, followed by a contrasting B section, followed by a repeat of A.

Its typically a song with lyrics, and typically including some repeating strophic phrase that begins all the A sections. This is often the title of the song. (eg. "Somewhere Over The Rainbow", "Blue Skies")
