註釋
The Man I Love, I Got Rhythm, A Foggy Day, Let's Call the Whole Thing Off, Nice Work If You Can Get It, They All Laughed, 'S Wonderful, The Man That Got Away ... make a list of Ira Gershwin's songs, and the names themselvse sound a familiar melody. The most literate and word-loving of our great lyricists, Ira Gershwin described his writing as simple, colloquial, rhymed conversational lines. Yet these simple lines were so irresistibly witty and enticing that dozens of them have made their way into the musical vernacular of the 20th century, the common memory of a song-loving culture.
