High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! "Something's Gotta Give" is a popular song with words and music by Johnny Mercer in 1954. It was published in 1955. It was written for and first performed by Fred Astaire in the 1955 musical film Daddy Long Legs. The song playfully uses the irresistible force paradox - which asks, in physics, what happens when an irresistible force meets an immovable object - as a metaphor for a relationship between a vivacious woman and an older, world-weary man. The man, it is implied, will give in to temptation and kiss the woman. The song's lyrics echo the plot of Daddy Long Legs, in which a reserved man in his 50s (Astaire) falls in love with a woman in her early 20s (Leslie Caron). The biggest-selling version was recorded by The McGuire Sisters, reaching #5 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1955 (see 1955 in music). Sammy Davis, Jr. had a popular competing version out the same year which also made the Top 10 on the Billboard pop chart, peaking at #9. The following year Mel Torme released a version on his Sings Fred Astaire album.
