who wrote it don't mean a thing
It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing) It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing) is a 1931 composition by Duke Ellington, whose lyrics were written by Irving Mills. It is now accepted as a jazz standard, and jazz historian Gunther Schuller characterized it as "now legendary" and "a prophetic piece and a prophetic title."[1]
Don't Matter to Me The song contains posthumous vocals from Michael Jackson,[9] taken from part of an unreleased 1983 session between Jackson and Canadian singer-songwriter Paul Anka. "Love Never Felt So Good", released on Xscape, and "This Is It", also came from the same session; Anka is therefore credited as a songwriter on all three songs.
