domineering partner?

The song lists three possible faults, indirectly, by referring to others that don't have these faults but won't do. These three faults are: he/she might be mean, might be cross, might try to be boss. Only one of the three faults refers to dominance, and "try to be boss" is not really dominating, it is only trying to dominate. The present article seems to suggest that the song is about dominance. From the lyrics I can't see it is.86.103.157.51 (talk) 18:17, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"With all your faults I love you still"

I have in my possession a letter dated February 11, 1904, written by a woman to her husband who has been negligent in performing any of her requests. She quotes, in quotation marks, the line "with all your faults I love you still", obviously in full expectation that he will recognize the line. Gus Kahn is credited with writing the lyrics and publishing the song It Had to be You in 1924, twenty years after both this aggrieved wife and her negligent husband would have been very familiar with the phrase from some popular source. The letter is not misdated; it is from a long series of handwritten letters exchanged between the couple when she was away trying to recuperate from tuberculosis, until she died in 1905. Kahn was 17 years old at the time of this letter. The phrase might have stuck in his unconscious memory from its original popular source – or he might have deliberately cribbed it.

First published in 1924?

Dear friends, 2 different italian books about jazz ("Livorno, dalla 'Musica Americana' al Jazz. La storia, le storie" by Maurizio Mini, journalist, and Andrea Pellegrini, jazz musician, Erasmo Edizioni, Livorno 2013, and the famous "Il Jazz in Italia" by the journalist Adriano Mazzoletti, EDT ed., 2004) tell the song was "first recorded and released in 1924 by the musician and producer from Livorno [Tuscany, Italy], Armando Di Piramo". Maybe this Armando Di Piramo published it as the first release of this song in Italy? Or was his the first release ever? What infos about the first edition of this song? What is the source about "1924"? Ciao, thanks. --Simoneschiaffino (talk) 09:06, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
