Ukulele for It Had To Be You 1924

"It Had to Be You" is a popular song written by Isham Jones with lyrics by Gus Kahn, and was first published in 1924.

The song was performed by Priscilla Lane in the 1939 film The Roaring Twenties and by Danny Thomas in the 1951 film I'll See You in My Dreams. The latter film was based loosely upon the lives of Gus Kahn and his wife Grace LeBoy Kahn. It was also performed by Dooley Wilson in the 1942 film Casablanca, and by Diane Keaton in the 1977 film Annie Hall.

Hey, Ed!!! I didn't know you had made this video with this song. I love this song. It was the first one I learnt to sing (to myself, of course... I didn't want to scare people around me, at that time). Great job, Ed. I love it. Thank you very much.

I was, in effect, "reading my own press releases" when I came across this nice comment from you and it doesn't appear that I replied to. Twom months late but...thanks so much. Happy that you enjoyed it. Ed

It's a lot easier when you don't try and play melody. Thanks Michael.
