You Do Something to Me

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You Do Something to Me is a song written by Cole Porter. It is notable in that it was the first number in Porter's first fully integrated book-musical, Fifty Million Frenchmen. In the original production, the song was performed by Genevieve Tobin and William Gaxton (performing the rolls of Looloo Carroll and Peter Forbes, respectively) [1]. It has been revived and rerecorded many times since, notably by Howard McGillen and Susan Powell in 1991. There are two verses and two rounds of the chorus. The song has been described as "a tender prequel to Let's Do It, Let's Fall In Love, Porter's first popular song.
