The first hit version was by The Mills Brothers in 1943 when the song reached No. 17 in the Billboard pop charts. The song has become a well-known standard, recorded by many artists. Wilder said, in an interview with Jay Nordlinger, that the song came to him in a taxi cab in Baltimore. Just the title. I spotted [the title] as I was crumpling up the envelope some days later.

You Go to My Head is a 1938 popular song composed by J. Fred Coots with lyrics by Haven Gillespie. Numerous versions of the song have been recorded, and it has since become a pop and jazz standard. Alec Wilder terms Coots' melody a minor masterpiece. According to Ted Gioia, “’You Go to my Head’ is an intricately constructed affair with plenty of harmonic movement. The song starts in a major key, but from the second bar onward, Mr. Coots seems intent on creating a feverish dream quality tending more to the minor mode. The release builds on the drama, and the final restatement holds some surprises as well. The piece would be noteworthy even if it lacked such an exquisite coda, but those last eight bars convey a sense of resigned closure to the song that fittingly matches the resolution of the lyrics.
