recorded for radio, 1962
Written by Cy Coleman and Carolyn Leigh, 1960
This song was written for Lucille Ball for the musical Wildcat, but I only know it through Louis Armstrong's perfect version. This one uses bright, metallic percussion, cymbals and probably a xylophone or one of its cousins, and an organ, as a backdrop to Clooney's brassy, expressive voice and Bing's laid-back charm. It's a fine demonstration of their talents, but they don't exactly make the song their own.
