FRANK SINATRA WAS HARD!!! - MY WAY - MY 1ST LISTEN

[@alandarnell1885]

What’s funny is that Frank was more of a REAL gangster than 99.999% of these rappers

[@darkmage212]

And yet all of his songs have so much more class then the majority of mainstream rap “songs” now a days.

This is a "final stand" song, the kind that plays when a character is facing down the villain's army and know they're not getting out alive.

[@LogicaIn]

Hell yea

[@damobeck1]

I feel this more when the battle is done and the character leaning up against the wall slowly dying. Maybe he won the fight, maybe he fought long enough for the other characters to finish the fight. Either way he begins to reflect on his life as he dies and decides, “this is a good end”

[@TheGreatDearLeaderJimPickens]

Back when you really had to sing, No auto tune. No fixing your voice up with a computer. Just you and a mic.

Who cares? Both can be done well and both can be done badly, what difference does it make

[@barry4649]

@@Marklennon using auto tune doesn’t mean you have no talent, it’s just a different style of music. If you’re using it because you can’t sing then fair enough but if you’re using it to make an experimental sound like say Travis Scott or Kanye West that obviously takes talent too

[@luke4444]

Written for Frank Sinatra by Paul Anka in 1968. Sinatra had been in showbiz for over 30 years when he recorded it and was contemplating retirement. He had ALOT of ups and downs in his public life and was known for doing it his way. After a short retirement he came back and performed until 1995. Singing this song all over the world 🎶

[@tropical9913]

Written by Paul Anka? Didn't know that. Put Your Head On My Shoulder is a classic!

[@robertphelps1574]

The song was originally a French song called Comme d’habitude then Paul Anka gave the song new English lyrics

[@neilomac]

Fun fact: David Bowie also submitted lyrics for the song that eventually became 'My Way', they were rejected, Bowie heard 'My Way', got pissed off that he missed out and took some of the underlying musical structures of 'My Way', reworked it a bit, wrote some new lyrics to the new piece and out came his own classic - Life on Mars.

[@-Manda_SKnight_BeastMoD]

@@neilomac Woah 😳 Thank you SO MUCH for telling us this!!! Wow. See! Now THIS is why I love reactions like this - not only bc of the reactor, but bc of the comments. I love learning new things and this is amazing 💙

[@ImBarelyMe]

Reminds me of the time frank was on stage and forgot the words, so he started to cry and whisper “I’m so sorry” into his microphone, then starting from the VERY very back, a man screams “ITS OK FRANK. WE LOVE YOU. WERE HERE AND WE LOVE YOU” as everyone joined in applause and lead him back into his song, absolutely beautiful

Franks version is a cover as well. This is a French chanson called Comme D'habitude written by Claude Francois and Jaques Revaux. It's about France Gall, a famous French singer. The song was very famous in Europe before Frank did his version. Paul Anka just wrote the English lyrics.

This song means so much to me-my dad passed away 2 years ago from Alzheimer’s and we played this as he passed. The strange thing was he suddenly was able to hum the song and squeeze our hands as he took his last breath. He did live his lie “his way” and was such a positive and hardworking man. He came from nothing in a town of 199 people to marrying my mom and having 4 children. He started 4 businesses that now employee thousands-so I felt like he handled his life with pride , grit and determination. He did it His WY! Love you Dad “A. Rex Johnson. Miss you more everyday!

[@CSpad]

Frank was my Grandfather's fave. (He was full blooded Italian) When he passed, we had like 40 people singing this song in his honor. Frank would also tell places that if they wouldn't serve Sammy Davis, or try to not let him use white folk facilities etc. He'd tell him, he wouldn't perform there.

[@holliswood6631]

Check out old WW2 era footage of young Frank in concert with masses of screaming, weeping teenage girls. That phenomenon started with him. They screamed for him as much or more than they did for Elvis or the Beatles. Soldiers away at War really resented him for getting their girls so excited 😄

[@Shazzadut1]

Yes. His fans were called bobbysoxers, because they wore short socks. He was huge in the 40’s, then had a real lull in his career before he took off again. I love his song ‘I’m A Fool To Want You’. He wrote it about Rita Hayworth who was a glamorous movie star he was married to. They had a tempestuous relationship. When he was recording it apparently tears streamed down his face.

This song became my morning routine. Whether I was leaving for work at 4:30am or walking across campus to my first class of the day this song just always put me in the mood to conquer my day.
