Witchcraft

Larry DeAngelo sings “Witchcraft,” a popular song from 1957 composed by Cy Coleman with lyrics by Carolyn Leigh. It was released as a single by Frank Sinatra, and reached number twenty in the U.S., spending sixteen weeks on the charts.

Composed as an instrumental piece by Coleman for the revue Take Five, lyrics were added by Leigh, and “Witchcraft” was subsequently recorded by Sinatra in May 1957, in an arrangement by Nelson Riddle.
