Music Video of the Day: I’ve Got You Under My Skin by Frank Sinatra and Bono (1993, directed by Kevin Godley)


For his 1993 album Duets, Frank Sinatra teamed up with other singers to reinterpret some of his best-known songs.  For I’ve Got You Under My Skin, he teamed up with U2’s Bono and thoroughly sung him under the table.

The music video was directed by Kevin Godley, who was one of those directors who ended up working with just anyone who was anybody.  In the video, Bono looks very excited to be there.  Frank looks a little less excited.

At the same time this album came out, SNL broadcast a skit featuring Phil Hartman as Frank Sinatra, bullying all the other singers and refusing to actually record with them.  “There’s a twenty on the dresser, now get out!”

Enjoy!
