Let's Get Away from It All is a popular song with music by Matt Dennis and lyrics by Tom Adair, published in 1941. It is considered a standard of traditional pop music and is described as a swing number. The first recording, made in February 1941 and released as a single in April that year, was by Tommy Dorsey and His Orchestra, with a vocal refrain by Connie Haines, Frank Sinatra and The Pied Pipers. Fats Waller and His Rhythm also recorded it in 1941. The song is most associated with Frank Sinatra, who had a hit with it as a member of The Pied Pipers while in Dorsey's orchestra, and who later recorded it on his album Come Fly with Me.
Later recordings include the single by Martha Tilton and Harry Babbitt (1950), Patti Page (1958), Della Reese's album Della (1960), Louis Prima and Keely Smith's album Together (1960), and Rosemary Clooney's album Still on the Road (1994). The Supremes performed it in a medley with "The Lady Is a Tramp" in nightclubs from 1966 to 1969, and on their 1968 album Live at London's Talk of the Town.
