Rich Little and Kermit sing "Well Did You Evah?" as part of the closing medley for episode 204 of The Muppet Show.
"Well Did You Evah?" was written by Cole Porter, and originated in the 1939 Broadway musical DuBarry Was a Lady. It was reused in another Cole Porter musical, the 1959 film High Society, when it was realised that the film's stars, Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra, did not have a song together. The performance on The Muppet Show uses a staging reminiscent of the High Society version, and features Rich Little's impressions of both Sinatra and Crosby.
