“I’ve Got You Under My Skin” (1956) Sinatra’s interpretation of this Cole Porter classic is nothing short of masterful. The song’s infectious rhythm and Sinatra’s passionate delivery make it a standout in his extensive catalog.”I’ve Got You Under My Skin” is a song written by American composer Cole Porter in 1936. It was introduced that year in the Eleanor Powell musical film Born to Dance in which it was performed by Virginia Bruce. It was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song that year but lost out to “The Way You Look Tonight” . Popular recordings in 1936 were by Ray Noble and his Orchestra (vocal by Al Bowlly) and by Hal Kemp and his Orchestra (vocal by Skinnay Ennis). The song has subsequently been recorded by hundreds of artists. It became a signature song for Frank Sinatra, and, in 1966, became a top-10 hit for The Four Seasons. Swedish singer-songwriter Neneh Cherry had a European hit with her reworking of the song for the 1990 Red Hot + Blue charity album.
