The song name may not immediately ring a bell, but the interlocking melodies of "Heart and Soul" so often heard by dueling side-by-side pianists are unmistakable across many generations. This is perhaps the signature song (alongside "Baby, It's Cold Outside") in the prolific career of Broadway songwriter Frank Loesser. The song has been covered by dozens of performers (Dave Brubeck, Ella FitzgeraldMel Tormé) and has appeared in countless movies (American Graffiti, Big, The Godfather II) and televisions shows (Lost, Family Guy, The Simpsons)



On 11/29/95, Phish covered the song “Heart and Soul” with Béla Fleck on banjo. Clocking in at less than a minute, this relaxed and cheerful rendition was coherent and complete, though at the same time little more than a tuning and vamping interlude. 


Lyrics:

(Carmichael, Loesser)

Heart and soul, I fell in love with you
Heart and soul, the way a fool would do
Madly...
Because you held me tight
And stole a kiss in the night

Heart and soul, I begged to be adored
Lost control, and tumbled overboard
Gladly...
That magic night we kissed
There in the moon mist

Oh! but your lips were thrilling, much too thrilling
Never before were mine so strangely willing

But now I see, what one embrace can do
Look at me, it's got me loving you
Madly...
That little kiss you stole
Held all my heart and soul
