    I'm 15 and listen to Mr. Sinatra all of the time. My friends call me grandma and won't listen to it with me, but they want me to listen to WAP with them. I'm called grandma because I have a hearing aid, need reading glasses, love old music and movies, and eating hard candy. My friends don't make fun of me for listening to Frank, but they think it's weird. A song or movie, no matter the age, is still a song or movie because people worked hard time make it a reality, whether it be 80 years old, 30, 15, or even a month old it's still a work or art. People my age tend to forget that. Frank Sinatra is one of the greats, along with Bing Crosby, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr, Cab Calloway, Elvis, The Beatles, Freddie Mercury, David Bowie, Michael Jackson, and Prince. I love each and every one of them, and will never stop, no matter how strange people think it is.

    Perfect song for that point in the movie where Frank apparently lost the affection of Doris Day. The unbeatable combination of songsmith Cole Porter, vocalist extraordinaire Frank Sinatra, orchestrator Nelson Riddle with an appropriately minimalist arrangement and accompanist Bill Miller makes the tune come alive and worthy of our undivided attention.

    Whenever Frankie boy was bad and vile,which he was frequently, those misgivings about his character were just blown away when he opened his mouth and sang and enraptured your soul.Whatever nastiness still exists surrounding his name,that music in his soul has got to have come from God.He is surely and irrevocably missed.

    • @cruiseguitar
      @cruiseguitar 4 роки тому +3

      Great comment and I agree completely- it’s like he was the purest , most genuine version of Sinatra ( even that name has magic in it) when he sang. He just had a real hard time matching the beauty of that version with his ‘everyday living’ version- that was tortured, contradictory, vindictive, petty,.. alternatively he could be generous to a fault, very loyal, ( until you wronged him) charming as all get out, and very loving. Certainly, a complicated individual. And to me, the greatest ballad AND swing jazz/pop male vocalist of all time. NOBODY could interpret the Great American Songbook like Frank, he practically made it his own!

      I kinda get how you feel. I was a little disappointed too when I found out. I read it in one of Nancy's postings on the Sinatra website so, they weren't hiding it. Perhaps the industry people knew it long before we all did. Just another one of Hollywood's illusions. Anyhow, Bill worked for Frank for over 50 years so, it may not have bothered him. It was kind of his job so to speak.

    The irony of this performance in the movie "Young at Heart" is that Sinatra plays a loser named Barney who can't seem to catch a break, and yet he's so good here that his talent is unmistakable and seemingly "can't miss."

    • @somefavs
      @somefavs  9 місяців тому

      @samludu5916 Actually, not so ironic. There is a common misconception that all excellence is recognized by the world. It is not. I'll never forget Al Jarreau's Grammy acceptance speech in 1979. After being around since 1961, he understood the long hard road for a musician before getting acknowledged (if ever). In his acceptance speech, he acknowledged that fact and accepted the Grammy for all those who, though talented, had NOT been and, may NEVER be recognized or acknowledged. I always appreciated that about him.

    Not a big deal, but Nelson Riddle - despite what the descriptions says - had nothing to do with this arrangement.

    • @somefavs
      @somefavs  6 років тому +3

      You got me going on that one. So, I went on a search and came up with some interesting info. First of all, my inclusion of Nelson Riddle as a collaborator came from his arrangement of this song on the "Swing Easy" album 1953. Although, in the movie, it was more of a stripped down version so, I may have gone overboard in assuming Nelson's involvement in this arrangement too so, I will remove that in the details. But, here is what's interesting and, I'm glad I found this information out in my search. The musical conductor in this film never got credited. His name is: Ray Heindorf. Something about a new ruling that came down at the time that he didn't agree with which resulted in him not being credited AT ALL.
      I want to thank you for calling me on this. I hate giving incorrect information about anything plus, I got to give at least some credit (by putting his name in the title now) to a guy that should have gotten it 64 years ago.
      Much appreciated,
      Annette

      Well, Annette, thank you for not thinking I was being a know-it-all jerk with a Bachelor's Degree - in Sinatra-ology!
      You're on the mark as far as the chronology goes: "Swing Easy" 1953; "Young at Heart" 1954. I would've assumed Riddle, but something sounded off. So, if MY name was Hendorf and I'd done the score but was to be given a as "Music SUPERVISOR and conducted by" by credit, I would've gotten annoyed as that would imply I hadn't written or arranged any of the music.
      I looked up Hendorf and, wow, he did a lot of substantial things for a fella who isn't a well-known.
      So, this is how we learn things. Have a swell week, Annette - wherever you're having it. :)

      Heh heh. Funny. No. I'm always glad to be corrected...well, in these days I am. Better than believing and passing on bogus information.
      Looks like you found the same article I did about Ray and his not being credited. That kind of thing bugs me...that people can make contributions and, sometimes huge ones and not get acknowledged. Always give me a kick to put their names out there where they belong.
      Take care my friend and, thanks for your well wishes.

    I love this so much I mashed it up with the album version: ua-cam.com/video/kpVc0MOArWs/v-deo.html

      I just watched your mash up. Couldn't have been easy. Nice work. Skillful playing on your part.

    Ok. .. Wait for it. There's bound to be some wacko nimrod dingbat that's gonna say Sinatra stinks. I've come to the conclusion that those characters were not breast fed when they were infants. .. Permanently irritable.
