Tea for Two Bossa Nova Cover

“Tea for Two“ is a 1924 song composed by Vincent Youmans, with lyrics by Irving Caesar. It was introduced in May 1924 by Phyllis Cleveland and John Barker during the Chicago pre-Broadway run of the musical No, No, Nanette. When the show finally hit Broadway on September 16, 1925, Nanette was played by Louise Groody, and her duet with Barker of “Tea for Two“ was a hit. The song went on to become the biggest success of Youmans’ career. Doris Day sang Tea for Two in the musical film with the same namn in 1950.
