Frank Sinatra has been called the greatest popular singer
of the century. Whether that is true, in a century that
also offers us Bing Crosby, Ella Fitzgerald and many others
is, of course, a matter of personal emotional choice and,
therefore, unknowable. What can be said is that under the
intense and fickle scrutiny of the pop marketplace for
nearly two-thirds of a century, Sinatra's music was in the
air the world breathed and fell out of fashion only long
enough for the deserters either to grow up or recognize
that what was offered in its place was almost always trash
by comparison.
Sinatra was born Dec. 12, 1915, in Hoboken, N.J., and as a
schoolboy nursed ambitions to be a journalist. The earliest
known example of Sinatra on record come from his 1935

Review about Frank Sinatra This is All I Ask | Reviewer: Cliff Hayward
------ About the song This Is All I Ask performed by Frank Sinatra
I've been a fan of Frank Sinatra for many years and own a great many of his records. However, last night I listened to David Jacobs on Radio 2 and heard Frank sing " This is All I Ask". It was the first time I'd heard it and I think it's one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard and one of Frank's truly great performances. Thank you D J for playing it.

Both lyrics are correct | Reviewer: christian
------ About the song Nancy performed by Frank Sinatra
Hate to get into a yes it is, no it isn't match, but later recordings of the song do use the lyrics posted, likely because the ladies in the first version were past their prime as actresses and liz and audrey were the new hollywood sweethearts. Frank was never past his prime though
L'amour est bleu | Reviewer: Seabee Tim
------ About the song Love Is Blue performed by Frank Sinatra
Yes, it is the same song performed by Paul Mauriat's orchestra. The song originated in France, composed by André Popp, lyrics by Pierre Cour and first performed by Vicky Leandros in French in '67, the same year Mauriat performed it. Mauriat's version topped the American charts for 5 weeks in Feb - March '68. Brian Blackburn then translated the lyrics to English, and it has since been performed by several artists including Frank Sinatra and Jeff Beck.
Not sexist. | Reviewer: kthnxbye
------ About the song Wives And Lovers performed by Frank Sinatra
It's saying that you should care enough to run a damned comb through your hair at the end of the day.
It doesn't imply in any way that it doesn't apply to the man too. After all, the housewife might take off with the pool boy if he keeps coming home looking like a slob!
The Theme song of Laura, 1940 sung by Frank Sinatra | Reviewer: Margaret
------ About the song Laura performed by Frank Sinatra
This is a beautiful song. My father would always sing it to me, when I was little. My daughter has
been watching old movies, and she told me she had watched Laura with Gene Tierney. I immediately had a flash back, and told my daughter about the song. I almost remembered the
words. It was wonderful to hear this song after all these years, brought back wonderful memories
of my father, who had a beautiful voice.
Only the Lonely, 1959 | Reviewer: No Moss
------ About the song Here's That Rainy Day performed by Frank Sinatra
Well, Sinatra wasn't the greatest voice, but he had a way with music, each song getting his distinctive and instinctive touch. He wanted the best songs, the best arrangers, the best musicians, and the best performance he could give. He was infamous among musicians for his retakes. Finally, in one session, a musician piped up when Sinatra wanted another retake, saying "Baby, you can't do it any better!" Everyone broke up, including Frank, and Frank agreed.
So little known - such a beautiful song | Reviewer: Paul Mascall
------ About the song Don't Worry 'Bout Me performed by Frank Sinatra
I first heard this song when I was given the Frank Sinatra - Count Basie Sands album. I could scarcely believe my ears. What a beautiful song - and I had never come across it before! The Sinatra Basie combination is amazing too. They don't make them like that anymore.
This Is All He Asked | Reviewer: Jack
------ About the song This Is All I Ask performed by Frank Sinatra
My father, a very good piano player, made a tape of himself to record his rendition of this lovely and sentimental tune. He did this the day before he died of a second heart attack. He had never before taken the step of recording his music. It seems clear that he wished to include this in his legacy to the family and had a premonition that his end was very near. It still brings tears to my eyes.

------ About the song Laura performed by Frank Sinatra
I too was named after this song by my father - it was his favorite. I didn't even realize there were lyrics until after I was 40 - I am blessed to be named after such a hauntingly beautiful song. I always wanted a more "popular" name - but this is what I should have. Thanks Dad!!
Frank Sinatra: best damn singer in the known Universe. | Reviewer: Julia
------ About the song You Go to My Head performed by Frank Sinatra
Nobody, but nobody, could or can deliver a song like Frank SInatra. I never heard of the guy until ten years ago and there just isn't any other male vocalist that can deliver a love song the way he did/does. I wish I had known about him earlier, like, when he was alive!! I would have loved to see him perform.
Sinatra's Harmonic Sense | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song What's New performed by Frank Sinatra
Harry Connick Jr said that it was not only Sinatra's phrasing that was so brilliant, but also his harmonic sense. After trying to sing this song i see what he means, Sinatra hits a sequence of notes that i would never even think of singing, adding to the painful angst of this incredible performance.
Regarding comment of anonymous 10/1/2007, Frank Sinatra DEFINITELY did perform this song with these lyrics. It was playing on the radio the day I found out my favorite uncle died. Loss made me cry then and the lyrics make me cry to this very day. And remember, one man's crap is another man's fertilizer.
I think this song is totally sexist, while the wife is going to all this trouble what is the husband doing.
My husband plays it in his car all the time and if I'm driving I turn it right down so I can't hear it.
I like the tune though which is also annoying as it goes round and round in my head. Infuriating!

Frank's finest hour | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Drinking Again performed by Frank Sinatra
For anyone in romantic mood, to turn down the lights and play this track followed by Danyel Gerrard's "Butterfly" gets you are well on your way to the 'making babies' part of your relationship.
These tracks are sex on vinyl.
In 1952, when I was seventeen, this song was special for my first love. Now, fifty-six years later, the lyrics still are exactly right for a gay love song recorded during a tortured era. I was astonished to see them interpreted here otherwise, since it's so obvious.
Frankie must have loved to sing this song. The emotion that he puts into it is hard to believe. Being a woman I cried at the torment she is going through. Only Sinatra could sing this song with this kind of feeling, nobody else. Thank god for records, cd's dvd's and books that feature the greatest singer of all time. Jackie
It seems to me that everytime that I write a review about Sinatra I always have to use the superlative "Perfection." This song is perfect. I can't go one day without hearing it. I have a tee-shirt that I had printed, it says, "IF IT AIN'T SINATRA, IT AINT." Bernardo
