Written for the musical Sweet Charity, but recorded by her more than three months before the Original Cast. Highly unusual, Peggy made special arrangements with the show's producer to do so. Her single release coïncided with the Broadway premiere at the end of January '66.
Covers:
Helen Gallagher, Thelma Oliver & The Girls [in musical Sweet Charity, with Helen & Thelma as the escort girls of the Fandango Ballroom; choreography: Bob Fosse]
Shirley MacLaine & Chita Rivera [in film Sweet Charity]
Milly Scott & Ronnie Bierman [as Gulle Gever in NL version Sweet Charity]
Lyricist Dorothy Fields was 60 something, but still in good shape: "I don't pop my cork for ev'ry guy I see".
