I've Got You Under My Skin


"I've Got You Under My Skin" by Frank Sinatra is typically performed in the key of C major. This classic jazz standard was written by Cole Porter in 1936 for the musical "Born to Dance." Sinatra's rendition, released in 1956, became one of his signature songs. The song is a passionate declaration of love, with lyrics that vividly describe the feeling of being deeply enamored with someone. Sinatra's smooth vocals combined with the lush orchestration create a timeless and romantic atmosphere. "I've Got You Under My Skin" has since been covered by numerous artists and remains a beloved classic in the American songbook.
