Leo (F.) Reisman (October 11, 1897 – December 18, 1961) was an American violinist and bandleader in the 1920s and 1930s. Born and reared in Boston, he was of Jewish ancestry; from German immigrants who immigrated to the United States in the 19th century. Reisman studied violin as a young man, and formed his own band in 1919. He became famous for having over 80 hits on the popular charts during his career. Jerome Kern called Reisman's orchestra "The String Quartet of Dance Bands". more »

What is this thing called love,
This funny thing called love?
Just who can solve its mystery? 
Why should it make a fool of me?

I saw you there one wonderful day.
You took my heart and you threw it away.

Now I ask the Lord in heaven above,
"What is this thing called love?"
