The Year of Tony Bennett

An Appreciation of the Art and Music of Tony Bennett

October 10, 2021 By Suzanne Leave a Comment

Song of the Day: I’ve Got You Under My Skin

The song of the day for Monday, October 11, 2021, is “I’ve Got You Under My Skin.”

About This Song

Cole Porter wrote “I’ve Got You Under My Skin” in 1936 for the film musical Born To Dance, where it was introduced by Virginia Bruce. The song was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song, but lost to “The Way You Look Tonight.” This song has been recorded many times since it was written. Of particular note are the 1956 Frank Sinatra recording on Songs for Swinging Lovers! and Diana Krall’s live recording in Live In Paris, released in 2002.

About This Version

Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga recorded “I’ve Got You Under My Skin” for their 2021 album of Cole Porter songs, Love For Sale. Friend of this blog, Marion Evans, wrote the arrangement and conducted the big band. Evans’ first album with Tony Bennett was in 1967 for Tony Makes It Happen!
