Artist: Irene Bordoni & Arthur Margetson
Author: Cole Porter
Year: 1928
In musical Paris (A Play With Songs). Cole Porter's first big theatre hit. This song replaced Let's Misbehave shortly before the première. For Irene Bordoni, a suitable follow-up to George Gershwin's Do It Again. The title part between braquets was wisely added to avoid radio boycots.
Covers:
Irving Aaronson [oldest recording, for Victor]
Frank Sinatra & Shirley McLaine [in film Can-Can]
Kim Basinger [in film Too Hot To Handle]
Alanis Morissette [in film De-Lovely]
