"Witchcraft" is a popular song from 1957 composed by Cy Coleman with lyrics by Carolyn Leigh. It was released as a single by Frank Sinatra, and reached number twenty in the U.S., spending sixteen weeks on the charts. Composed as an instrumental piece by Coleman for the revue ''Take Five'', lyrics were added by Leigh, and "Witchcraft" was subsequently recorded by Sinatra in May 1957, in an arrangement by Nelson Riddle. Elvis Presley sang this song in ''The Frank Sinatra Timex Show: Welcome Home Elvis''. ==Versions== Sinatra recorded "Witchcraft" three times in a studio setting. The first recording was in 1957, for his single release, and was later released on his compilation album ''All the Way'' (1961). Sinatra re-recorded "Witchcraft" for 1963's ''Sinatra's Sinatra'', and finally recorded it as a duet with Anita Baker for ''Duets'' (1993). "Witchcraft" has been recorded by many other artists, including Sarah Vaughan, on her 1962 album ''You're Mine You'', Ella Fitzgerald, on ''Ella Returns to Berlin'' (1961), and Bill Evans on ''Portrait in Jazz'' (1959). Another version was featured in the 1993 movie ''Hocus Pocus''. Robert Smith of The Cure recorded a version of the song for Tim Burton's ''Frankenweenie Unleashed!'', a 14-track collection of songs "inspired by" the filmmaker's latest stop-motion creation ''Frankenweenie'', released on 25 September 2012. Anthony Strong released a version of the song on his 2013 album ''Stepping Out''.
