So here’s the album that’s been playing in my car almost everyday now.
Some of my favorite songs from the album:
- Strangers in The Night
- New York, New York
- Love’s Been Good To Me
- Come Fly With Me
- My Kind of Town
- Girl From Ipanema
- Summer Wind
- and of course, the notorious My Way
For me, listening to Sinatra is very relaxing and soothing, especially when stuck in Jakarta traffic. His songs sometimes makes me imagine I was in one of those classy night clubs, wearing a black tuxedo, enjoying a nice dinner with friends and colleagues, while watching him sing accompanied by his big band. Sinatra’s songs stand the test of time, I’ve been listening to his songs ever since I was little (because my dad likes to sing them).
Now why am I writing about Sinatra?… No particular reason actually… hehehe… these past posts have been very light ones, and probably will be like this for some time.
Anyway, it’s still office hours and i better get back to work :P
I’ll end this post with one of Sinatra’s quotes:
Cheers.
hmmm, i loooove the 30’s era when the men look very good looking and enticing with the tux (somehow they all look mysterious) and the women look very gorgeous & sexy with blonde hair, glamour dress, lady like appearance (like the current christina aguilerra image, dont u think?), although cant imagine me with blonde hair hehehe

Frank Sinatra’s are great songs for sing a long.. I love his version of Fly Me to The Moon it’s also in the album, i think . And I love Moon River too. But, no one can sing it as beautiful as Audrey Hepburn did in Breakfast at Tiffany’s.. ;-p

dendi: fly me to the moon is a great song, but i prefer Julie London’s version of it. Very soft voice… gives a more romantic atmosphere.. hehe cleguks.
