"You're Just in Love" is a classic musical duet in which one character complains of the typical "ills" that befall a person in love (such as being unable to eat or sleep), while the other responds with some common-sense advice that "You're not sick, you're just in love!"
The Muppet Show
In episode 122, the song was part of a medley of Ethel Merman's greatest hits. When Uncle Deadly sang "I hear singing and there's no one there," Ethel retorted "You would!"
Cleo Laine and The Swedish Chef later sang the complete duet in episode 216, while Cleo asked the Chef for advice about her emotions.
Other Uses
- On Fanfare, the Two-Headed Monster sang "You're Just in Love", with slightly altered lyrics such as "I keep tossing in his sleep at night - and what's more, I've lost his appetite!".
