It was first recorded on May 10, 1960, by Dean Martin in a swinging big band jazz arrangement conducted by Nelson Riddle. Martin performed the song in the 1960 heist film Ocean's 11 in an alternate arrangement featuring vibraphonist Red Norvo and his quartet. BackgroundVan Heusen and Cahn wrote the song specifically for the 1960 film Ocean's 11, though it was initially referred to press as "Ain't That a Kick in the Seat".[1] Dean Martin's single was released before the film, which premiered on August 10, 1960. ReceptionDespite being listed on the "Very Strong Sales Potential" list in Billboard's "Reviews of This Week's Singles",[2] Dean Martin's initial release failed to chart.[3][4] However, the song has become strongly associated with Martin and—despite never technically being a "hit" in terms of sales or radio play—has been released on many Dean Martin "greatest hits" albums, such as The Essential Dean Martin, Greatest Hits (Capitol),[5] and Greatest Hits (EMI),[6] as well as many swing and easy listening compilations.[7] Contributing to this association is his performance of the song in Ocean's Eleven, which is considered the "quintessential" Rat Pack film.[8] References1. ^{{cite news|last1=Zhito|first1=Lee|title=On the Soundtrack|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=BR8EAAAAMBAJ&lpg=PA33&d&pg=PA33#v=onepage&f=false|accessdate=19 February 2018|work=Billboard|issue=Vol. 72, No. 5|publisher=Nielsen Business Media, Inc.|date=1 February 1960|page=33|language=en}} 2. ^{{cite news|title=Reviews of This Week's Singles|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=yR8EAAAAMBAJ&lpg=PA11&vq=dean&dq&pg=PA45#v=onepage&q=dean&f=false|accessdate=19 February 2018|work=Billboard|publisher=Nielsen Business Media, Inc.|date=25 July 1960|pages=45|language=en}} 3. ^[https://www.billboard.com/archive/charts/1960 Billboard Archive Search, 1960] 4. ^{{cite news|title=Show Music|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=IDcJAQAAMAAJ&d&focus=searchwithinvolume&q=%22ain%27t+that+a+kick%22|accessdate=19 February 2018|issue=Vol 7|publisher=Max O.
