Treasure Girl

Treasure Girl is a 1928 American musical with a book by Fred Thompson and Vincent Lawrence, music by George Gershwin, and lyrics by Ira Gershwin. It was one of the several Gershwin shows produced by Alex A. Aarons and Vinton Freedley.

Seven songs from Treasure Girl were published by Harms Inc. in 1928: "I Don't Think I'll Fall in Love Today," "K-Ra-Zy For You," "Feeling I'm Falling," "Got a Rainbow" (also known as "I've Got a Rainbow"), "Oh, So Nice!," "What Are We Here For?", and "Where's the Boy? Here's the Girl!" The musical's best-known song, "(I've Got a) Crush on You," was first published in 1930 when it was reused in Strike Up the Band. It was not until Lee Wiley's 1939 recording that "I've Got a Crush on You" gained notable popularity. Since then, it has been recorded by a number of artists, including Frank Sinatra. "K-ra-zy for You" and "What Causes That?" were used in the 1992 musical Crazy for You. The former was used without the verse (following Bobby Short's 1973 recording), and Howard Pollack noted that the latter "went from almost complete obscurity to become the surprise hit of the show." In fact, "What Causes That?" was thought lost until its rediscovery among a large cache of musical theatre materials in Secaucus; it was first published as part of Crazy for You.
