Every Little Movement (Has a Meaning All Its Own)

"Every Little Movement (Has a Meaning All Its Own)" is a popular song. Its music was written by Karl Hoschna and its lyrics by Otto Harbach for their musical Madame Sherry, which opened on Broadway in 1910.

Since its publication, the song has become a standard, recorded by many artists, including Doris Day. Judy Garland sang it in the 1943 film Presenting Lily Mars and Peggy Cummins sang and hummed it in the 1947 film The Late George Apley, based upon the Pulitzer Prize-winning John P. Marquand novel of 1912 Boston

The song was sung in 1957 by Polly Bergen on her eponymous NBC variety show^[1] and by Ann Morgan Guilbert on an episode of The Dick Van Dyke Show called "The Gunslinger".

Marie Lloyd sang a parody of it in British music halls just before the First World War.

In Rick Besoyan's satirical 1959 musical Little Mary Sunshine, the song is parodied in the song "Every Little Nothing", which employs the same first five notes and mentions the song by name.
