About Frank Sinatra and His Music
To say that FRANK SINATRA lived a life of ups and downs would be an understatement. Right from the beginning, he faced challenges galore - he almost died at the time of his birth, he was raised during the Great Depression, he left high school without graduating before being expelled due to his rowdy character, held differing political views during his lifetime, garnered considerable attention due to his alleged personal and professional links with organized crime, he battled with mood swings and depression, and so much more.
Yet, through all these challenges, he emerged as one of the most successful solo artists and actor, and rose to the top in the 1940s. He managed to press through the dark days of the early 1950s and triumphantly re-emerged in the mid-1950s, to his status as pop culture icon in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s.
I was introduced to Frank's soulful music fairly late in his career, but I was instantly attracted to his music style. Over the years, I've listened to many of his songs and here I list my top 5 favourites (lyrics & videos included).

#5 - My Way
Frank Sinatra My Way Lyrics
MY WAY
And now, the end is near
And so I face the final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full
I've traveled each and ev'ry highway
But more, much more than this
I did it my way
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption
I planned each charted course
Each careful step along the byway
But more, much more than this
I did it my way
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall
And did it my way
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fill; my share of losing
And now, as tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say - not in a shy way
"No, oh no not me
I did it my way"
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way
#4 - I've Got You Under My Skin
Frank Sinatra I've Got You Under My Skin Lyrics
I'VE GOT YOU UNDER MY SKIN
I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me
I've got you under my skin
I'd tried so not to give in
I said to myself this affair never will go so well
But why should I try to resist when baby I know so well
I've got you under my skin
I'd sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear
Don't you know little fool
You never can win
Use your mentality, wake up to reality
But each time that I do just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin
I would sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of the warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats how it yells in my ear
Don't you know, little fool
You never can win
Why not use your mentality
Step up, wake up to reality
But each time I do just the thought of you
Makes me stop just before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin
Yes, I've got you under my skin
#3 - Strangers In The Night
Frank Sinatra Strangers In The Night Lyrics
STRANGERS IN THE NIGHT
Strangers in the night, exchanging glances
Wond'ring in the night, what were the chances
We'd be sharing love before the night was through
Something in your eyes was so inviting
Something in your smile was so exciting
Something in my heart told me I must have you
Strangers in the night, two lonely people
We were strangers in the night
Up to the moment when we said our first hello, little did we know
Love was just a glance away, a warm embracing dance away
And ever since that night, we've been together
Lovers at first sight, in love forever
It turned out so right for strangers in the night
#2 - New York, New York
Frank Sinatra New York, New York Lyrics
NEW YORK, NEW YORK
Start spreadin' the news, I'm leavin' today
I want to be a part of it
New York, New York
These vagabond shoes, are longing to stray
Right through the very heart of it
New York, New York
I want to wake up, in a city that never sleeps
And find I'm king of the hill
Top of the heap
These little town blues, are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it
In old New York
If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere
It's up to you, New York..New York
New York...New York
I want to wake up, in a city that never sleeps
And find I'm A number one, top of the list
King of the hill, A number one....
These little town blues, are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it
In old New York
If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere
It's up to you, New York..New York New York!!!
#1 - That's Life
Frank Sinatra That's Life Lyrics
THAT'S LIFE
That's life
That's what all the people say
You're riding high in April
Shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune
When I'm back on top, back on top in June
I said that's life
And as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks
Stomping on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down
'Cause this fine old world
It keeps spinning around
I've been a puppet, a pauper,
A pirate, a poet,
A pawn and a king,
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing
Each time I find myself
Flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race
That's life
I tell you, I can't deny it
I thought of quitting baby
But my heart just ain't gonna buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
I'd jump right on a big bird
And then I'd fly
I've been a puppet, a pauper,
A pirate, a poet,
A pawn and a king,
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing
Each time I find myself laying
Flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race
That's life
That's life, and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out
But my heart won't buy it
But if there nothing shaking coming this here July
I'm going to roll myself up in a big ball
And die...
My my...
"I'm gonna live till I die."

- Frank is still the original definition of Cool. And 'New York, New York' is a timeless hit, and played at the end of every NY Yankee baseball game. Nicely done!

- Just last night I was watching Pal Joey, a great musical featuring Sinatra singing some great Rodgers and Hart songs like The Lady is a Tramp, and I Didn't Know What Time It Was. He was an amazing performer: actor and singer. This is a great tribute to him.

- Sinatra was so wonderful. I remember listening to New York, New York over and over again on the jukebox in a bar one time. It was just a friend and I in there. I switched from that song to Queen's Another One Bites The Dust constantly. Looking back, I feel sorry for the bartender! lol

- What a wonderful Frank Sinatra collection of music. I was listening to The Way You Look Tonight earlier on a new lens of mine. That song is one of the top 10 wedding songs of all time. The man could sing like a bird, and was one of the best.

- Yeah, Frank Sinatra could definitely sing like a bird ~ The Way You Look Tonight is a wonderful song and sung by many artists, I guess because it's so popular. It's definitely one of my top 10 songs from Sinatra. Good to see you around, Susie! :)
