Jule Styne（1905-1994）

「フランク・シナトラとバーバラ・ストライザンドの二人に曲を書いたというコンポーザーっているのだろうか？幸運なことだった」と、自分で書いている。

サミー・カーンとコンビを組んでシナトラのために書いた歌がたくさんある。

”Guess I'll Hang My Tears Out to Dry”、”It's Been a Long, Long Time”、”I'll Walk Alone”、”And Then You Kissed Me”、”Some Other Time”、”Come Out, Come Out, Wherever You Are”、”Buy a Piece of the Peace”、”Five Minutes More”、I've Heard That Song Before”、”What Makes the Sunset?”、”I Fall in Love Too Easily”、”I Begged Her”、”The Charm of You”、”Time After Time”、”Saturday Night (Is the Loneliest Night of the Week) ”、”I Should Care”、”It's Magic”、”Every Day I Love You”、”I'm in Love”、”Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!”など。

1964年のブロードウェイ・ミュージカル「Funny Girl」の主演女優がバーバラ・ストライザンドだった。その中で歌った”People”は、日本では雪村いづみが若い頃よく歌っていた。
