In the original play, a character named Billie Smith (played by Mitzi Green) sings the song to Valentine "Val" LaMar (played by Ray Heatherton). In the song, Billie pokes fun at some of Valentines characteristics, but ultimately affirms that he makes her smile and that she doesnt want him to change. And My Funny Valentine first hit the charts in 1945, performed by Hal McIntyre with vocals by Ruth Gaylor. It only appeared for one week and hit #16. The song is part of the Great American Songbook and has had many notable recordings (see talk page).
