Let me tell you, when Frank is on his game, he makes you feel like you have a million dollars in your pocket. And he's on his game in this performance. He really was incredible. Every man wishes he had Frank's swagger and style and essence, and what lady wouldn't want a man like this on her arm
The song is from the movie Guys and Dolls, and so the subject of dice and luck has an overriding meaning to the song when you hear it sung in the context of the movie. Although the performance in the movie was not by Frank, and Frank brings the song to life like it never came to life before. Sinatra was the coolest dude who ever walked the planet. And he's one of the two greatest male vocalists who ever lived. Maybe the best ever. By the way, this song isn't about a girl. It's about Lady Luck...in a casino...or a dice game. Not an actual woman.
Bein a young, thin-muscular 6’6 dark Italian American male who’s attracted to African American women..I think of that phrase a lot! lol don’t be puttin ur hands through my curly black hair n then be talkin to another man to get me upset on some petty shit, be a lady ain’t no time for games amore, be a LADY wit me!! Old blue eyes, you did it again!!!
This isn't being sung to an actual woman. It's from a musical where a gambler needs to win big to save an orphanage and the guy is praying to "lady" luck to stick with him so he can.
The song is from the '55 movie, Guys & Dolls. The male leads were FS, who won the Academy Award in '53 for "Eternity" and Marlon Brando who won in '54 for On The Waterfront. Brando, great as he was, had no business in a musical and to make matters worse, Sinatra had been vying for Brando's part. There was way too much testosterone in the air and as a result these two wound up butting heads throughout the filming. Sinatra kept calling Brando "mumbles" and Marlon countered with cracks about Frank's receding hairline. He even speculated as to how Frank might confront God on the issue when the time came. This song went to Brando's character and it's arguably the best tune among many good ones in the show. I must assume that what Brando delivered was Frank Loesser, the composer's conception, vocals notwithstanding. What we have here is Sinatra's conception as dictated to arranger Billy May. The tempo, the rhythm, the big, bouncy beat - all Frank! This was his way of closing the book on the subject and proving everyone wrong about who should have played Sky Masterson. Doubters need only listen to the first couple of bars of Brando's version (having heard this) to be swayed instantaneously. Finally, gambler's blow on dice in an attempt to sway "lady luck," not an actual person, in their favor. Should they win, what would you assume crosses their minds next?
@Malachi Pelly It's pretty obvious the young lady didn't. Further, haven't you seen any of Tracey Morgan's "pretty sure" commercials? I was pretty sure there was only one legitimate candidate running for office in 2016. She didn't win. The lesson: take nothing for granted; be absolutely sure.
Wow, are you beautiful or what? I just subscribed!! Now if you like great rock and roll, check out TRIUMPH performing live in concert in Halifax Nova Scotia performing Fight the Good Fight. Rik Emmett, the guitarist and vocalist wrote this song for his aunt who was battling cancer at the time. Very positive message. Love your channel.
I used to hate my dad for listening to this. Now I wish it would come back.

Great reaction to this legend beyond compare both a poet and singer at the same time he will forever be a true legend
No one could front a big band like the Chairman of the Board. The one and only Sinatra.
Without a doubt, the g.o.a.t.
Hear in the Brazil, Sinatra is the Best of the Best!
My interpretation of this song is she’s the lucky lady because she’s with him. The original king of swag!
Best Sinatra!!!!!
Sinatras band kickin some backside too!!
The gambling reference is because sometimes it’s a gamble if your date is gonna be a lady lol.
Let's keep this night polite don't leave out of my sight

*YOU SHOULD REACT TO HIS ''WE HATE TO LEAVE'' SONG F.T. GENE KELLY!*
To me; he's talking about women, as an example; in wishing for luck in gambling and life. It's not really so much about personal love, per se.
