• cole porterin bu sarkisi 1956'da high societyde frank sinatra - bing crosby ikilisi tarafindan soylenmistir, ki unutulmaz bir duettir, tadindan yenmez.

    sarkinin orjinali 1940'ta "dubarry was a lady" muzikalinde yer almistir, high societynin en eglenceli sahnelerinden biri olan sarki filme aslinda bir eklemedir, cunku film boyunca crosby ve sinatra'nin beraber soyledigi bir sarki olmadigin farkedip, son dakikada porter bu eski sarkiyi yeniden yazivermistir. ne iyi yapmis, iyi ki yapmis, o ayri..

    debbie harry & iggy pop coverini bir sinatra hastasi olarak sahsen pek sevmesem de, red hot + blue isimli cole porter tribute albumunde de yer almistir 1990'da.
  • robbie williams swing when you're winning albümünde bu parçayı coverlamıştır. parçanın bu versiyonunda robbie ye jon lovitz eşlik etmiştir. sözleri ise şöyledir ;

    i have heard among this clan,
    you are called the forgotten man
    (is that what they’re saying, well did you evah!)
    (what a swell party this is)

    and have you heard the story of,
    a boy, a girl, unrequited love
    (sounds like your soap opera, tune in tomorrow) i may cry
    (what a swell party this is)

    (what frails, what frocks) what broads!
    (what furs, what rocks!) they’re bootiful.
    (why i’ve never seen such gaity) neither have i.
    (it’s all just too, too risque really)

    this french champagne
    (so good for the brain) thats what i was going to say.
    (you know you’re a brilliant fellow? ) why thank you
    (pick up jack. please don’t eat that glass my friend)

    (have you heard, about dear blanche? )
    (got run down by an avalanche) no!
    (oh don’t worry, she’s a game girl you know, got up and finished 4th)
    the kids got guts. (having a nice time? grab a line!)

    have you heard that mimsie starr
    she got pinched in the astor bar
    ...
    she got stoned.
    well, did you evah? (never!)
    what a swell party this is!

    it’s great, so grand!
    it’s wonderland!
    la da da da......

    (we sing, so rare)
    (like old camembert)
    (like baba au rhum!)
    don’t dig that kind of croning chum!

    have you heard? it’s in the stars
    next july we collide with mars.
    well, did you evah?
    what a swell party, a swell party
    a swelligant, elegant party this is!

    (i drink to your health)
    naw, lets drink to your wealth
    (you’re my bon’amie) hey, thats french
    a liberty fraternity

    have you heard? it’s in the stars
    next july we collide with mars.
    well, did you evah?
    what a swell party, a swell party
    a swelligant, elegant party this is!
