Oswald in the doorway: the blog of the Oswald Innocence Campaign, by Ralph Cinque

This very sweet song was written in 1928 by George Gershwin, with lyrics by his brother Ira, and they gave it to Ginger Rogers to sing in their 1930 Broadway musical Girl Crazy. Fred Astaire wasn't in it, but they hired him to choreograph the dancing that Ginger did to the song, and that was before the historic teaming of Astaire and Rogers as a dance couple. Billie Holiday's 1944 recording of the song was inducted in the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2005.  I tell you, this song gets to me every time.
