"How About You?" is a popular song composed by Burton Lane, with lyrics by Ralph Freed. It was introduced in the 1941 film Babes on Broadway by Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney.
The lyrics of the song are often changed depending on the recording artist. In its original form it is a humorous romantic duet, though rarely recorded that way. Certain lyrics, especially those with topical references, are often changed based on the time of the performance's release. For example, the line "Franklin Roosevelt's looks give me a thrill" was changed to "James Durante's looks" in a 1956 recording by Sinatra, though he did sing it in its original form when he recorded it with Tommy Dorsey in December 1941. Another example can be found in Bobby Darin's version of the song, which replaces the Roosevelt reference with a reference to "Mr. Kennedy." Darin's version changes the lyrics again near the end of the song to “Mrs. Darin," who at the time was American actress Sandra Dee. Similarly, in a shout-out to his wife on a 1964 recording, Steve Lawrence sings, “Eydie Gormé’s looks give me a thrill."
Bob Crosby, Mary Livingstone and Jack Benny sang the song as a novelty trio on a 1955 episode of Benny's TV show.
Lucille Ball and Van Johnson sang and danced to this song on an episode of I Love Lucy.
