History
George Gershwin wrote the music for George White's Scandals of 1924, with words by Ballard MacDonald and Buddy DeSylva, and Harms published it that year. Paul Whiteman, Marion Harris and Cliff Edwards all recorded it in 1924 and 1925.
Benny Goodman recorded it in 1936, and Lena Horne sang it in the film Broadway Rhythm in 1944.
