his signature song changed over the years many times. He did not really like the song, he thought it was too narcissistic. But he always did it for his fans. in the early days he was known for his hit song "Tim After Time." Also for in the 1950's for "Fly Me to the Moon" and a few others...toward the end of his career it was "New York, New York."
The story behind this was Paul Anka was inspired to write the song after a dinner conversation with Sinatra in Miami. Sinatra told Anka that he was retiring from show business and that the Rat Pack was over. But it was not the end. Frank Sinatra went on to record other great songs such as 'New York, New York' and gave many great live performances. He passed away in 1998. A legend, who will never be forgotten.
Not write the song. Write the lyrics. The music of the song existed allready in the original song, sung in French : "Come d' habitude" a song about how a marriage can turn to a routine.
Welcome to the Frank Sinatra rabbit hole. He recorded more songs than anyone other than Bing Crosby and Perry Como. He was an Oscar -winning actor. Had his own television series. His face and voice were known worldwide. He headed up the famous "Rat Pack" of Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, Jr., Peter Lawford and Joey Bishop. Las Vegas became famous because of Sinatra.
First off. Yes, this is a song from a man's point of view near the end of his life, so that leaves him nothing to do except for look back on that life. It's been a while since this song was recorded. But I can tell you this, as much as I liked it, based on it's impressive vocals and important lyrics, As I am now 76 years old, it becomes, at least in my eyes, an even better song. because I can now relate to it as I see my own life entering it's last act. We all look ahead during the first 3/4 of our li've. And then in the last quarter instead of looking ahead, we look back and it is something that allows us to Evaluate our life. And most evitably it is nostalgic, if nothing else.
In his very early days he was considered the "Elvis" of his time. The first pop entertainer that caused young girls to swoon. In Hollywood he was a "triple threat", he could sing, dance and act!
He was what we called a "Crooner" out of a large crowd of very talented crooners in the 40s through the 1970s and 80s. He sold millions of records worldwide. He was born in 1917 and died in 1998. He was a New Yorker before anything else and his song "New York, New Youk" was a trademark tune. Glad you discovered him. Now look up Bing Crosby, Dean Martin, Nat King Cole and Tony Bennett and you will have found the sound of my youth. Good reaction.
This is the ultimate song for a singer to master. The gentle tender and then the massive belting power. A song where you master your tone, master your control and most importantly, master your decision making as a singer.
Sinatra had a career that lasted for decades. He was a teen heartthrob singer in the 1940's, a movie star in the 1950's and had continued success both as a recording star and a movie star through to the end of the 1960's when he released this song at age 53.
This song can hit a whole lot harder when you understand the monumental life he lived in the 20th century. One of the greatest stories in the entertainment industry; and an artist who's artistry inspired Jazz greats like Miles Davis and John Coltrane. He was extraordinarily generous to those he loved and a bitter enemies to those who crossed him. His art is the best kind of manic depressiveness - and he literally hits so many more colors in his singing and his song choices than many of his contemporaries. He is like a phenomenal RADA actor who delivers Shakespeare like no other. He was STAUNCHLY against racism as he would not play in any hotels that did not allow his black musicians to stay in. He was friends with world leaders and mafia killers and kings and queens, yet grew up the son Of immigrants in Hoboken, NJ. To take a deeper dive in him like I did when I was ten years old (i am 50 now) just opens up this enormous tree of great artists he worked with like Ella Fitzgerald and Count Basie and Quincy Jones and Louis Armstrong and so so so many more. It's a real history lesson of not only great musicians but US History as well. Great post!
I have watched over 60 reaction channels going on 5 years now and you are the first one to react to Frank Sinatra. I can’t believe no one else has tried to listen to this incredible voice. Thank you for selecting this song by this artist it brought back such great memories.
I love the defiant tone of this song. It's like, "Sure, I made some mistakes and you might have your criticisms of me, but you know, I've always tried to do the right thing and I'm satisfied with the man I am and the life I've led." I think the blue of his iris has been cranked up a bit in that image, but maybe not by too much..... his nickname was "Ol' Blue Eyes" after all.
Ok my dear young lady, I just want to ´pont out my huge appreciation to you, spending your time with such a wonderful classic, and sharing that with us, thank you so much, all the best 2U!!!
when you are older like me this song means so much more. Best line "For what is a man what has he got, if not himself , then he has not...to say the things he truly feels, and not the words, of one who kneels." frank was the first real singing teen idol around 1938 through 1950..tne girls used to scream for him at concerts when he was young. Then branched out into more serious acting, and thousands of songs and orchestra arrangements. Among the top 5 most memorable male singers of the 20th century, along with Bing singers like Bing Crosby, Michael Jackson, Elvis and Nat King Cole., Tony Bennett, Dean Martin and a host of many others.
Sinatra had it all, that awesome voice, that awesome phrasing, that swagger, that confidence…etc., truly an unmatched entertainer. Bing Crosby, a wonderful singer, said it best… “ people like Sinatra come once in a lifetime, but why did he had to come in my lifetime?”
This song was sung by the little mouse in the movie Sing, at the end with all the animals singing. I feel that the movies for kids are using great music to introduce them to these fabulous artists.
Frank Sinatra was nick named Ole Blue Eyes and the Chairman of The Board. He was the leader of the Rat Pack. The other members were singers Dean Martin and Sammy Davis JR There is a Video showing Elvis after he got out of the Army on The Frank Sinatra show. Elvis and Frank Sinatra sang together. Frank Sinatra's Daughter Nancy Sinatra who sang these Boots were made for waling was more excited to see Elvis than her own dad in the show. Elvis covered My Way. he performed it in 1973 at his Hawaii TV special and in 1977 at his TV special. Elvis said he related to the song/
Frank Sinatra, aka: Chairman of The Board, ole Blue eyes. The #1 male singer of all time. Deep, deep rabbit hole of music icon and legend. In his music era, there was no auto tune or computer tricks, either in-studio recordings or live performances. just talent. He now is lead male vocalist in Heavens Choir (RIP Frank)
Italian melody with English lyrics by Paul Anka. Covered by so many singers. Joan Baez and the Gypsy Kings do a wonderful version in Spanish. I don't speak Spanish but it really moves me.
"My Way" is a song popularized in 1969 by Frank Sinatra set to the music of the French song "Comme d'habitude" composed by Jacques Revaux with lyrics by Gilles Thibaut and Claude François[1][2] and first performed in 1967 by Claude François. The English lyrics of the song were written by Paul Anka and are adapted from the original French song
Sinatra's heydey was 40's and 50's and of course the 60's moved away from big band type if music towards popular and rock. But even the boomer generation know who Sinatra was and the release of this song was well received by all. Great tune.
Never gets old this from one great great entertainer . Had it all as many here have said and will say. His way, Sinatra's Way "My Way" is for many of us true. In the end many of us do it our way. However none of us cannot sing it or perform it with the panache and feeling like Sinatra did.
I've seen videos. He recorded in a large room with the full orchestra in the room. He sat on a stool with a mic in front and they just did it. It's really pretty amazing but that's how he rolled.
The original was a French song first recorded in 1967 . Paul Anka acquired the rights to the song , and re wrote the Lyrics as well a small change to the melody . Paul Anka wrote his version specifically with Frank sinatra in mind .
The first to have an English crack was David Bowie, who wrote "Even a Fool Learns to Love" to Claude Francois’ Comme d’habitude. In response to the publisher not using his version but rather Paul's, David wrote and sang "Life on Mars".
Sinatra was a huge star in the 30s, 40s and 50s singing mostly jazz. He starred in movies and had TV specials. By the 60s with rock and roll replacing jazz as the top selling music he was viewed as ax relic of the past. He recorded this to mark his retirement. It was a huge hit, and instead of retiring it marked the beginning of a comeback. He continued to record and fill concert halls for more than another decade.
Frank Sinatra was in many ways the first true pop star. In the 30s and earlier the really famous musicians, like Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong were known for being band leaders and soloists. But Sinatra was the US music business' first true star in the modern sense. Back in the ragtime days there were also solo artists famous as individual performers, but music distribution at that point was too primitive to allow them to become stars (no radio etc.)
Frank Sinatra, aka, "Ol' Blue Eyes," "Chairman of the Board," is arguably the most importan t male pop singer of the 20th century. His career extended from the 1930s to the 1990s. Poll a hundred knowledgable working musicians and ask them what male singers belong on a Mount Rushmore of male pop singers, and you'd almost certainly get all 100 of them to name Frank Sinatra, and he might be everyone's first choide. Before there was Michael Jackson, before there was the Beatles, before there was Elvis Presley, there was Frank. The Sinatra rabbit hole is a deep one. Here are some more of his songs you should hear: "The Best Is Yet to Come," "Fly Me To the Moon" (recorded with the Count Basie Orchestra and arranged by a very young Quincy Jones), "Witchcraft," "Luck Be A Lady," "All the Way," "That's Life," "It Was A Very Good Year," "Theme from 'New York, New York'." Then there's the duet he sang with his daughter Nancy,, "Something Stupid."
I have whiplash. I watched your review of Hocus Pocus Focus, then this. It would take days for you to learn half of what there is to learn about Frank Sinatra. This is his signature song.
You should really listen to Elvis do this -- the difference is overwhelmingly amazing due to Elvis' strong emotion & passion that he put into the song th-cam.com/video/ixbcvKCl4Jch/w-d-xo.html.

A few ways a person can interpret the meaning of the song but as for Frank singing this at this time in his career it was the very top or pinnacle of his great carrer to where he had done and achieved so much in his life as a singer, actor and well respected person. Sort of as if he was saying that I cannot do much more at this point to achieve anything better than he already has. That's just my take, opinions vary.
Check out the Rat Pack with Frank Sinatra Dean Martin and Sammi Davis Jr. Huge in their day.Think you would enjoy? Hurt by Johnny Cash a deep reflection at the end of his life.

Please consider a reaction to Angelina Jordan . Start with " i put a spell on you " aged 9 th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Km5I26V3V7N0ZilA.( This is no ordinary child singer but a amazing talent .)

The sound is called Crooning. Other crooners were Bing Crosby
Dean Martin
Tony Bennett
Sammy Davis Jr etc
Nat King Cole
Another fabulous song where the singer is saying goodbye is Johnny Cash's Hurt.
This was released in 1969, he was 53.
He was born Dec 12, 1915 that would make him 53 in most of 1969.

Cant believe anyone would compare Elvis movies with those of Sinatra! Youve got to be kidding.
People laugh because I'm a little younger but love Frank Sinatra. My favorite is "Summer Wind". Check it out
Nice reaction, yes they called him Mr blue eyes.. this song is made by Paul Anka he was a singer too..
He actually was pretty good actor as well. You might check him out in an old 1954 B&W movie called "Suddenly ".
Academy Award for Best supporting Actor in "From Here to Eternity." 1954
Yes his eye color is real they call him ol blue eyes!
Frank has a lot of great songs, but my personal favorite is One For My Baby And One For The Road. Thanks for sharing this one.
He was the top singer of his generation.
My Way with Sid Vicious is a classic. Say that punkrocker who didnt want to be that guy.
legend since the 1940 s .....actor, singer.....listen also to NEW YORK NEW YORK and to STRANGERS IN THE NIGHT......legend

I loved your really thoughtful and interesting reaction. Thanks for that.

Many awesome songs from Frank , my favorite is " Thats Life" you should react to it
The greatest recording ever
Thx! I did it sideways!

Hey,Rere.
