Songs of the early 1900s were anything but the status quo in topic or style.
Excessively long titles, novelty tunes and ‘foreign themes’ permeated the piles of sheet music in the local music shops.
1916’s ‘Oh How She Could Yacki Hacki Wicki Wacki Woo (That’s Love in Honolu)’ covered a number of these quirks within one publication. This Hawaiian-tinged song evoked the mysterious ways of the South Seas islands, despite the abridging of Honolulu to ‘Honolu’.
Nonetheless, the hand lettered title of this particular piece of sheet music featured an Art Nouveau-influenced bold block letter with rounded corners. It’s now available digitally as Smooth Sailing JNL, in both regular and oblique versions.
