The piece performed by the "little orchestra" Pink Martini featuring vocalist Storm Large is a sultry, jazz-influenced cover of a classic 1946 song.

The song was originally written by Doris Fisher and Allan Roberts for the 1946 film noir classic Gilda , where it was famously lip-synced by Rita Hayworth . amado_mio_pink_martini_ft_storm_large
