"Hot Voodoo" / "You Little So-and-So" (1932)
Marlene Dietrich with Nat W. Finston & His Paramount Orchestra (from the soundtrack of "Blonde Venus")
"Blonde Venus" is a 1932 American pre-Code film produced for Paramount starring Marlene Dietrich, Herbert Marshall, & Cary Grant. Dietrich performs the musical numbers, including the now-obscure "You Little So-and-So" (music and lyrics by Sam Coslow & Leo Robin) & the film’s infamous "Hot Voodoo" (music by Ralph Rainger, lyrics by Sam Coslow), which is nearly 8 minutes in length and mostly instrumental, featuring jazz trumpet & drums. Dietrich sings the lyrics toward the end of this sequence, which takes place in a nightclub.
This is such a campy song; it's no wonder I love it! It would later be performed in 1975's "The Day of The Locust" by a drag-queen! Vamp it up, kids....
