Description

Larry DeAngelo sings “Just One of Those Things” is a popular song written by Cole Porter for the 1935 musical Jubilee.

Porter had written the score for Jubilee while on an extended sea cruise in the early part of 1935: however, in September 1935 while he was visiting a friend’s farm in Ohio with Jubilee’s librettist Moss Hart, the latter mentioned that the play’s second act required an additional song, and Porter had “Just One of Those Things” completed by the following morning (he had previously used the title for a song intended for but not featured in the 1930 musical The New Yorkers—apart from the title the two songs are distinct).
