<< Americans in Paris
Harold Arlen >>

Ladies and Gents! Here comes our Gershwin week.

@Wikipedia : The Man I Love is a popular standard, with music by George Gershwin and lyrics by his brother Ira. Originally part of the 1927 score for the Gershwin antiwar musical satire Strike Up the Band, the song was removed from the 1930 version of the show, and, as with many standards of the era, has become more famous as an independent popular song than as one from a Broadway musical

@TJazzStandards.com : : Despite such endless setbacks, the homeless composition had become popular in London and Paris as Lady Mountbatten, a Gershwin friend, had returned to Europe with a copy of the sheet music.

@Shine : I did have this special guy at one time that I thought I loved. I know that was love but it was crazy love, that obsessive stuff. He tried to kill me and he ended up hanging himself in front of me.

@Noir of the Week : The Man I Love (the movie) may not even be a true noir, every character in this story has a clear control over their fate and by each’s own choice decides to go down an unhappy road, no fate or bad luck comes into play for these individuals.

@BellaOnline : In her book Getting Through to the Man You Love: The No-Nonsense, No-Nagging Guide for Women, relationship expert Michele Weiner-Davis, advises women to be strategic instead of emotional when dealing with men.

@Yedda : : The man i love with all my heart just told me that he cant be with me cause he will eventually fall out of love with me and i am ten weeks pregnant. (who is the dad?)

@DearCupid : Do I tell the man I love that I’m not divorced? He thinks that I was engaged but broke it off and moved out and now live with my parents.

to be continued… probably
