I Just Found Out About Love
"I Just Found Out About Love" is a popular song composed by Jimmy McHugh, with lyrics by Harold Adamson for the short-lived musical Strip for Action. After several pre-Broadway tryouts, the show finally came to Boston in April 1956, where it "fell off the rails completely." The city authorities tried to ban it for gratuitous nudity, because of a scene involving two girls in flesh-colored body stockings who posed discreetly upstage. The show closed early and never made it to Broadway.[1]
Other songs in the musical were "Too Young to Go Steady", "Dame Crazy" and "Love Me As Though There Were No Tomorrow".
