Cole Porter
Cole Albert Porter (June 9, 1891 – October 15, 1964) was an American composer and songwriter.
Many of his songs became standards noted for their witty, urbane lyrics, and many of his scores found success on Broadway and in film.
Born to a wealthy family in Indiana, Porter defied his grandfather's wishes and took up music as a profession.
Classically trained, he was drawn to musical theatre.
After a slow start, he began to achieve success in the 1920s, and by the 1930s he was one of the major songwriters for the Broadway musical stage.
Unlike many successful Broadway composers, Porter wrote the lyrics as well as the music for his songs.
After a serious horseback riding accident in 1937, Porter was left disabled and in constant pain, but he continued to work.
His shows of the early 1940s did not contain the lasting hits of his best work of the 1920s and '30s, but in 1948 he made a triumphant comeback with his most successful musical, "Kiss Me, Kate".
It won the first Tony Award for Best Musical.
Porter's other musicals include "Fifty Million
FrenchmenDuBarry Was a LadyAnything GoesCan
-Can" and "Silk Stockings".
His numerous hit songs include "Night and DayBegin
the BeguineI Get a Kick Out of YouWell
, Did You Evah!I've Got You Under My SkinMy Heart Belongs to Daddy" and
"You're the Top".
He also composed scores for films from the 1930s to the 1950s, including "Born to Dance" (1936), which featured the song "
You'd Be So Easy to LoveRosalie" (1937), which featured "In the Still of the NightHigh Society" (1956), which included "True Love"; and "Les Girls" (1957).
Number One (John Legend song)
" Number One" is the third single released from R&B singer John Legend's album" Get Lifted".
It features Kanye West and contains a sample of the song" Let's Do It Again" by The Staple Singers.
Let's Do It, Let's Fall in Love
"Let's Do It, Let's Fall in Love" (also known as "Let's Do It (Let's Fall in Love)" or simply "Let's Do It") is a popular song written in 1928 by Cole Porter.
It was introduced in Porter's first Broadway success, the musical "Paris" (1928) by French chanteuse Irène Bordoni for whom Porter had written the musical as a starring vehicle.
Bordoni's husband and "Paris" producer Ray Goetz convinced Porter to give Broadway another try with this show.
The song was later used in the English production of "Wake Up and Dream" (1929) and was used as the title theme music in the 1933 Hollywood movie, "Grand Slam" starring Loretta Young and Paul Lukas.
In 1960 it was also included in the film version of Cole Porter's "Can-Can".
Let's Misbehave
" Let's Misbehave" is a song written by Cole Porter in 1927, originally intended for the female lead of his first major production," Paris".
It was discarded before the Broadway opening in favor of" Let's Do It, Let's Fall in Love".
However, the star of the Broadway production, Irene Bordoni, performed it for a phonograph recording which was labelled as being from the production of" Paris".
The song was a notable 1928 hit for Irving Aaronson and his Commanders.
It was included perhaps most infamously in the 1962 revival of" Anything Goes".
The song was recorded in 1927 for the Brunswick label, by Banjo Buddy( a.k.a. Harold Sandelman).
C'mon Let's Do It
" C'mon Let's Do It" is a song written by Jimmy Manzie and Glenn A. Baker and recorded by Australian band Ol' 55.
The song was released in January 1977 and peaked at number 24 on the Australian Kent Music Report, becoming the band's second top ten single.
You Do Something to Me
" 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"( 1929).
In the original production, the song was performed by Genevieve Tobin and William Gaxton, performing the roles of Looloo Carroll and Peter Forbes, respectively.
The song has been revived and rerecorded many times since, notably by Howard McGillin 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.
The song has been recorded by artists including Mario Lanza, Frank Sinatra, Marlene Dietrich, Doris Day, Sonny Rollins, Susannah McCorkle, Bryan Ferry, Sinéad O'Connor on" Red Hot+ Blue"( 1990), and Skunk Anansie.
Ella Fitzgerald, the First Lady of Song, recorded this song on both her" Cole Porter Songbook" albums and on her Pablo classic," Ella à Nice".
Bing Crosby recorded the song in 1955 for use on his radio show and it was subsequently included in the box set" The Bing Crosby CBS Radio Recordings( 1954- 56)" issued by Mosaic Records( catalog MD7- 245) in 2009.
Bette Midler's version of the song plays over the final credits of the 1991 film" Scenes from a Mall", which starred her and Woody Allen.
The song was featured in the film Introducing Dorothy Dandridge( 1999).
According to the liner notes for" It's De Lovely — The Authentic Cole Porter Collection", the line" the voodoo that you do so well" is quoted in the 1993 Salt- N- Pepa song" Shoop".
The" voodoo" line is also quoted by Hedley Lamarr( Harvey Korman) in the 1974 film" Blazing Saddles" as he exhorts his gang to attack a frontier town.
Hold Me Tight (Cold Chisel song)
" Hold Me Tight" is a 1983 song from Australian rock band Cold Chisel, and appeared on the album" Twentieth Century".
Released as double A- side single with No Sense it reached number 14 in the Australian charts.
Although the song charted, it failed to receive much radio airplay and did n't appear on any later greatest hits compilations.
Lyrically similar to the Cole Porter song Let's Do It, Let's Fall in Love, it comically lists groups that engage in sexual congress( Presidents and chauffeurs do it/ Terrorists on sofas do it/ Movie stars repeat it till it's right).
Musically, it is in the style of 1950s rock songs.
The single was released months before the release of the album" Twentieth Century".
The version that appeared on the album was slightly different from the single version, which had more reverb.
The video was directed by Chilean artist Eduardo Guelfenbein, who had also done the artwork for the album and the picture sleeves.
