Frank Sinatra - My Way | Reaction

[@pencilnecked1579]

What makes this song so powerful is that you can hear it in his voice that he walked this walk. Despite it being written for him he made it his own through his lived experiences.

[@mclizzard2928]

So, there's a video of his last concert, when he was an old man, and this song will make your allergies act up, for sure. The whole room was full of fans who'd grown up with Frank putting their emotions on wax, and the love was palpable. His hair was silver, his suit was perfect, and his eyes were just as blue as they ever were. This was his closing number, and as he got to the bridge, his voice began to crack. I promise you, Frank NEVER cracked. But he did, and the instant love and support that came from the audience for this man was indescribable. They cheered him, and encouraged him, and he finished out the song like the legend he was. It was beautiful.

[@dina113east]

According to news outlets and his family, the song "The Best Is Yet To Come" was the last song he performed. Maybe the video shows him singing My Way, and has him exiting the stage, but it was not the last song he sang.

[@scottgeorgeff2896]

So many lives touched by this song. Ol' Blue Eyes...💙

[@johnboydTx]

He grabbed life and held on!!! Ole blue eyes has my respect 👍

[@Boatzilla2]

Good one, Van. I think you might like "It Was A Very Good Year" by Frank. Life story song. Vivid pictures.

[@tjmoore428]

There’s been few songs like this that give that feeling of soaring up into the clouds. Such beautiful lyrics too especially for the time

[@mcm0324]

Love this song! My father in law had a gorgeous voice like Sinatra's and I can still hear him singing this. We are lucky that we he recorded it and we have his voice for ever! Gorgeous song and gorgeous voice!

[@ninaflowers5878]

This is my ish! I love me some Frank Sinatra! Ole Blue Eyes! Tjis song is great!

[@carolcjh8938]

One of your best reactions. I could tell you were taking in every word from one of the greatest balladeers ever!

[@johnfiumefreddo2024]

These are the songs we listened to in the car as my father drove . We would complain .God I wish my father was still here . Thank you great song

[@mikeesain234]

Inspirational song. Elvis did a great cover of this song live. 🎶🎸✌️😎

[@jennhurl]

My Grandfather was a Big Band Leader & he sang this so beautifully! I have such amazing memories of him. Thank God for his upbringing.

[@TANTRUMGASM]

For what is a man, what has he got If not himself, then he has naught Not to say the things that he truly feels And not the words of someone who kneels The record shows I took all the blows And did it my way

[@NativeNYerChicHK]

You should do more of Sinatra; New York, New York Summer Winds Fly Me To The Moon, I Got You Under My Skin It Had To Be You And so many more. You can’t lose with any thing he’s done. He was known as Ol Blue Eyes ♥️

[@kraig7777]

Fly Me To The Moon is one of the catchiest tunes ever written!

This is the first time I've listened since my grandfathers funeral almost 20 years ago.... Still a great song.

[@cjturner370]

Always has been and Always will be a Masterpiece Especially Sung By Papa Frank Sinatra

[@TravisMeyerPhD]

and not the words of one who kneels!

[@j09j19]

Frank Sinatra was Jon Bon Jovi's great uncle. In "It's My Life", Jon Bon Jovi sings the line, "My heart is like an open highway; like Frankie said, 'I did it My Way'" Frank's family called him Frankie. Jon Bon Jovi was inspired to pursue music due to his admiration of his Uncle Frankie.

i had no idea about this, and i take huge pride for being from new jersey because of bon jovi, and then today i find out frank is also from new jersey, and now i find out theyre family. what the heck

Apparently this is false

[@juliaharvick5039]

Just wanted to say thanks for sharing great music and reactions. Always puts a smile on my face after a hard day! Thanks again !

[@bradjbourgeois73]

This song always reminds me of my favorite teacher who died weeks into my senior year of high school. My dad had an old 60's songbook and I learned it on piano and imagined myself singing it at his funeral, though it didn't happen. RIP Raymond Dornier!

[@lisaeason6874]

Van Elvis did this song too and its amazing.✝️❤

[@solitarybee3714]

Thank you for this one, I've loved it since I was a girl, listening to Sinatra on the record player or radio. Only seeing him sing live in the movies back then. His voice is inimitably his own.

[@nebidiaswift5200]

I remember my dad picking me up from hockey practice after tax season finished one year and he blasted this song the whole drive home (rewinding the tape deck each time). Now every time I get something big done I play it!

[@keithrosenthal4757]

Sinatra is one of The Greatest of All Time. Not only singing about his life but CAN LISTEN to this song close their eyes and relive their own life, tribulations and successes. A Man’s man. A Man who broke down racist barriers. One of the GOATS!!!! Long live OL Blue Eyes

[@carojayess1723]

Maybe it’s just me but this song made me weepy this morning. 🥲 beautiful song, beautiful message. Thanks for bringing it to us, Van.

[@ronniemaclaine5234]

Yeah I had tears my eyes while I was listening to it too

[@cjturner370]

I cry tears with so many emotions every time I hear this Masterpiece From Mr.Frank S.

[@jennahayes4507]

I really love this song since I heard it as child. However, when I heard Elvis' version I was blown away. So to this day I will listen to both, but Elvis is my favorite version.

[@brianhughes3312]

The problem with Elvis and I love Elvis and he no doubt ushered in something completely and entirely new in the 1950s - but unlike Sinatra, Elvis quickly stopped doing things his way. His life was under complete control by Col. Tom Parker. Elvis never left the US to tour overseas because Col. Tom Parker was afraid to fly and was in trouble with various authorities. Elvis was completely controlled by the Memphis mafia and Tom Parker. Sinatra had true power in the entertainment industry - was the sole reason Kennedy won the White House because of Sinatra’s mafia connections in Illinois. Was one of the first entertainers to put Vegas on the map long before Elvis got there. Sinatra truly did his way - way more than Elvis. All due respect to him. Elvis is one of the most influential entertainers that ever lived.

This is the Italian National Anthem... We're all a part of the same family, so you can have it too. Much love my friend.

my Sinatra song.Just amazing

[@carlspackler1431]

Brother this was great! Welcome to "The Voice". This was the song playing at my grandfather's funeral and I've made a vow. Should I know my time is coming, I want to play this song and know I did it my way. I recommend all his songs, but if you want to hear what I personally say is one of the best vocal stretches ever. React to Ol man river....the one when he is older....absolute CHILLS

[@For-The-Birds-88]

Truly a beautiful song. My late Father's favorite, mine too...Much Love 🕊❤

[@peggycstr2000]

Yes! Frank Sinatra. Must listen to Luck Be A Lady! Thanks

[@vodkarage8227]

Every man and woman should hear this song, or any other song with this message. Especially today when so many run to an authoritarian figure to resolve even the smallest issues. Freedom has a price, and that price is that you do things your way, or give it your best at the minimum.

[@susanthompson509]

We played this at my mom’s funeral. She died six years ago this month. Sinatra was her favorite singer & hope she’s listening to him now.

[@StevenCryar]

This has been played at every mobster's funeral since the day it came out

[@paulamahaffey4564]

And you know that because.......???

[@benmcgill2018]

[@MegaMan-bs3oy]

"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". Should be the first thing any man should learn growing up. That is just deep and freeing to hear.

The Elvis version is one of the songs that'll be played at my funeral

[@mrcrawdad69]

Sinatra was just an INCREDIBLE talent!!!

[@taylormoye7098]

This song also came out after he had been semi pushed out by the rock and soul singers. This put him “back” on the map. Came out a decade before I was born, but I always loved this song and fly me to the moon and that’s life are my favorites by the Chairman of the Board, old blue eyes, Frank Sinatra!❤🎶🎵🎤❤️

[@sphinx3r]

It's awesome to see reactions to older stuff like this. It helps introduce young people to something better than all that mumble autotune nonsense. Even though it came out in the 60s, it really has that classic big band swing vibe. Apparently Sinatra hated the song, coz he was worried people would see him as grandiose.

[@gh9111]

Frank was a wonderful giving man who didn’t want any praise for it. Listen to the words of the actor Richard Burton who spoke about it at an awards show.

[@georges4061]

I cant like this video more. As a ny italian who grew up on this. This is a mans anthem. It is the words n feeling of a true man at the end of his time.

Nice! Check out Roy Clark singing Yesterday When I Was Young.

[@rickgiles3633]

For me, the best line in the song is “Not to say the things that he truly feels And not the words of someone who kneels Let the record shows I took all the blows and did it my way”. Great reaction as always! Thank you.

[@zambrack66]

yes a French song and the song My Way is the English adaptation of the song As usual, composed by Jacques Revaux, Claude François and Gilles Thibaut, and originally performed, in 1967, by Claude François [1]. Adapted by Paul Anka, this version was popularized by Frank Sinatra's interpretation from 1969.

Please keep going with Frank Sinatra; he has so many songs that have that pure “Bop”: The Best Is Yet To Come Under My Skin Fly Me To The Moon Luck Be A Lady …..Try these; you’ll see 🔥🔥🔥

the guy who adapted the french version of this song is Paul Anka

[@jgates6645]

FYI- The origin of " better to die on one's feet than to live on one's knees " is generally attributed to Emiliano Zapata (1879-1919) in regards to living under Diaz's dictatorship in Mexico.

My Aunt Barbara was born in 1931.. she's long passed RIP.. but she was a teenager in the 40's and apparently Frankie was as popular as Elvis was in the 50's.. Girls were losing there minds over Frankie.. We don't really see all that. Frankie was an amazing Crooner.. Old Blue Eyes, the Chairman of the Board.. he made a difference in music also.

[@ProdigyBowlersTour]

Many Singers from that time didnt write the music they sung. Some Of the Most famous classics are actually covers Like Hound Dog By Elvis.

Something isn’t just either singer-songwriter or a cover, as many songs are original versions of songs written by others, songwriting is a profession.
