Francis Albert Sinatra (/sɪˈnɑːtrə/;
December 12, 1915 – May 14, 1998) was an American singer, actor, and producer
who was one of the most popular and influential musical artists of the 20th
century. He is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, having sold
more than 150 million records worldwide. Born in Hoboken, New Jersey, to Italian
immigrants, Sinatra began his musical career in the swing era with bandleaders Harry
James and Tommy Dorsey. Sinatra found success as a solo artist after he signed
with Columbia Records in 1943, becoming the idol of the "bobby soxers".
He released his debut album, The Voice of Frank Sinatra, in 1946. Sinatra's
professional career had stalled by the early 1950s, and he turned to Las Vegas,
where he became one of its best known residency performers as part of the Rat
Pack. His career was reborn in 1953 with the success of From Here to Eternity,
with his performance subsequently winning an Academy Award and Golden Globe
Award for Best Supporting Actor. Sinatra released several critically lauded
albums, including In the Wee Small Hours (1955), Songs for Swingin' Lovers!(1956),
Come Fly with Me (1958), Only the Lonely (1958) and Nice 'n' Easy(1960).
Sinatra left Capitol in
1960 to start his own record label, Reprise Records, and released a string of
successful albums. In 1965, he recorded the retrospective September of My Years
and starred in the Emmy-winning television special Frank Sinatra: A Man and His
Music. After releasing Sinatra at the Sands, recorded at the Sands Hotel and
Casino in Vegas with frequent collaborator Count Basie in early 1966, the
following year he recorded one of his most famous collaborations with Tom Jobim,
the album Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim. It was followed by
1968's Francis A. & Edward K. with Duke Ellington. Sinatra retired for the
first time in 1971, but came out of retirement two years later and recorded
several albums and resumed performing at Caesars Palace, and reached success in
1980 with "New York, New York". Using his Las Vegas shows as a home base, he toured both
within the United States and internationally until shortly before his death in
1998.
I'll be seeing you
In all the old familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces
All day through
In that small cafe
The park across the way
The children's carousel
And The chestnut trees
The wishing well
And I'll be seeing you
In every lovely summer's day
And everything that's bright and gay
I'll always think of you that way
I'll find you in the morning sun
And when the night is new
I'll be looking at the moon
But I'll be seeing you
I'll be seeing you
In every lovely summer's day
In everything that's bright and gay
I'll always think of you that way
I'll find you in the morning sun
And when the night is new
I'll be looking at the moon
But I'll be seeing you.
