George Gershwin was now a real composer. The rest of his life was an unbroken record of success. He wrote song after song. His ideas were so endless that he was not even troubled when he once lost some music he had been writing. "There is plenty more where that came from," he said.
George Gershwin had his first big hit in 1919, when he was 21 years old. It was a song called "Swanee." A popular entertainer, Al Jolson, sang the song. "Swanee" was made into one of the first musical recordings. George Gershwin was suddenly famous. Here is Al Jolson singing what became his trademark song, "Swanee."George Gershwin 现在已经是一名真正的作曲家。之后他的人生达到最顶峰。他作了一首又一首的曲子。思路像源源不断的泉水奔流而至，所以在一次曲子丢失中他仍十分淡定。他说道：“脑子里还有一堆曲子到来呢。”
George Gershwin 在1919年12岁的时候通过《斯万尼》大获成功。表演者Al Jolson演唱了这首曲子。《斯万尼》之后成为了第一首录制的歌曲。 George Gershwin也因此一举成名。接下来是Al Jolson演唱的其标志性歌曲《斯万尼》。
