Â My Way (song) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sinatra duetted the song with two performers before his death: Luciano Pavarotti (released on the album Sinatra 80th: Live In Concert) and Willie Nelson (recorded for the Duets series in the mid-1990s but not released until 2005 in the Collector's Edition Set).
It became the signature song for Frank Sinatra, even though Sinatra himself did not rate the song highly.
Written in 1968 and released on the album of the same name in 1969, the lyrics of "My Way" tell the story of a man who is nearing death, and introspectively looks back at his life whilst fictionally speaking to a friend who is sitting next to him.

Â A Bag Of Popcorn And A Dream, Arranged by Fred Barton

Walter Willison enlisted me for our next Wright and Forrest album, Friends In Paradise, which, similar to the Frank Sinatra duets, was conceived to use rare archival recordings of Wright and Forrest performing their own material, overlaid with my orchestration and live superimposed performances from a cast of current Broadway talent.
"Tony Martin and Frank Sinatra were just two of the popular singers of the day who wanted to record it." (liner notes) Performed here by album producer/director Walter Willison.
Alfred Drake's frequent absences and frequent cutting of songs from night to night were a possible contributing factor to its short run.
