FRANK SINATRA WAS HARD!!! - MY WAY - MY 1ST LISTEN 

What’s funny is that Frank was more of a REAL gangster than 99.999% of these rappers

This is a "final stand" song, the kind that plays when a character is facing down the villain's army and know they're not getting out alive.

My grandfather that ran his own company since the age of 17 passed away last year and within his will he requested this song to be played at his funeral. I loved this song before bit famn does it gives me chills and almost tear up everytime I hear it. Watching you enjoy it has made my day.

🔥🔥🔥 Reaction!!! This is a man's man song - y'all better put some RESPECT on Ole Blue Eye's name!!!

Written for Frank Sinatra by Paul Anka in 1968. Sinatra had been in showbiz for over 30 years when he recorded it and was contemplating retirement. He had ALOT of ups and downs in his public life and was known for doing it his way. After a short retirement he came back and performed until 1995. Singing this song all over the world 🎶

Back when you really had to sing, No auto tune. No fixing your voice up with a computer. Just you and a mic.

This song has been covered so many times but this is the best he made it his own. You will love any Sinatra number a completely unique voice.

Hell yeah frank music chill asf

"Ain't that a kick in the head" by Dean Martin is a good one

Frank Sinatra "That's Life" is perfect for a reaction! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Sinatra was the coolest and the best of the best of his time. He could still fill arenas in his 60s and 70s. No one sings like Sinatra although there has been many who tried.

This is why I love Stevie! He engages in really important civic discussions and then cleanses the palate with great reactions.

Every mans song!

Sinatra is fire af, love this!

he meant that sh@t, this hit so hard for me right now.. and its 2022.. this is timeless music right here.

Frank was my Grandfather's fave. (He was full blooded Italian) When he passed, we had like 40 people singing this song in his honor. Frank would also tell places that if they wouldn't serve Sammy Davis, or try to not let him use white folk facilities etc. He'd tell him, he wouldn't perform there.

I saw Frank Sinatra live when he was in his 80s and he sounded the same as this! He sang just as strong in person! Great entertainer!

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one 🙌

This song means so much to me-my dad passed away 2 years ago from Alzheimer’s and we played this as he passed. The strange thing was he suddenly was able to hum the song and squeeze our hands as he took his last breath. He did live his lie “his way” and was such a positive and hardworking man. He came from nothing in a town of 199 people to marrying my mom and having 4 children. He started 4 businesses that now employee thousands-so I felt like he handled his life with pride , grit and determination. He did it His WY! Love you Dad “A. Rex Johnson. Miss you more everyday!

Franks the man my granddad made me listen to him when I was a kid and he was played at his funeral

It's dope how you reacting to a wide arrange of music much respect to you ✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽

Check out old WW2 era footage of young Frank in concert with masses of screaming, weeping teenage girls. That phenomenon started with him. They screamed for him as much or more than they did for Elvis or the Beatles. Soldiers away at War really resented him for getting their girls so excited 😄

Music composed by french singer Claude François just licensed by Sinatra, credits for this great composer.

This was the final song at my father’s funeral. He did his whole life his way, which was a good way that helped a lot of others in his community. It was a perfect final tribute to him and I am honoured to have called him my Dad.

man this song saved my life this is one of those ...... special songs cool you finally checking it out man

the most unexpected reaction but this song is so good, heard it when i was leaving my old shitty job and it got me so hype.

Easily the most relatable song of all time. Timeless track

Frank Sinatra is legendary within music. A lot of great songs (That's Life, Fly Me To The Moon, Theme From New York, The Way You Look Tonight, etc.).

He was the bullied Italian kid, who was the first superstar and then lost it all before he was 25 and had to come back

This man's incredible talent was absolutely passed along....Frank is Jon Bon Jovi's uncle!!! Frank is referred to in one of Bon Jovi's famous songs....."It's My Life"!!! 🎶🎼🎵🎸🎹🥁🎧🎤🎙

Live Ur Life with Conviction.. and..Integrity.. with No Regrets... At the end of Ur Life people will still Respect and Value the WAY u lived... Bcuz u were a person of Ur Word.. and U stood for Wat u BELIEVED IN..no matter Wat... U did it...UR WAY!!!... AMEN ✌️❤️😎🙏🌎👍👍

Also check out BLUE EYES MEETS BED STUY. someone remixed Frank Sinatra songs with Biggie verses. I know it sounds weird but is fire

frankie droppin bars back in the day. Mr. Versatile!.... "why do I know that" lmao facts

If you have never seen the movie "Once upon a time in Hollywood " , this song definitely gives that vibe. This song brings back alot of my younger year memories of my father and uncles

Unexpected but so happy to see this reaction. Frank, Dean and Sammy are still 🔥

I will never be in love with a voice like I am his ❤️ that deep smooth, ugh it gets me every time

Frank's influence and scope was so widespread throughout the world for many years, that even new generations come into contact with his legacy at some point, to some extent. He was the Elvis of the 40's and early 50s.

I just heard this song for the first time a few weeks ago but it was a cover done by Christopher Lee (actor for Count Dooku, Saruman, Dracula) on one of the metal albums he released in his 90s before he passed away.

Such an epic song and I only discovered it for the 1st time in 2023. I had a prof that played a song at the start of every lecture all semester and he saved this one for our last day and final exam. I swore I had never heard it before and didn’t recognize it but it instantly became my favorite. He talks about standing tall and that’s exactly the feeling this song gives you. This song became my morning routine. Whether I was leaving for work at 4:30am or walking across campus to my first class of the day this song just always put me in the mood to conquer my day. I feel like few songs today can make you feel this good about something you can relate to. I don’t care about rappers bragging about their lambos, bottle service in the club, or how many “bitches” they got 😂

This era of music is one of the best, can't to many people throw down the vocals like they did.

classic frankie, umay have heard the chorus from jay z--my way on the blueprint 2 he sampled it (altho a higher pitched version)

“OL Blue Eyes!!”🙌🏼🙌🏼 🎶 Thx 🙏🏼 for this one Stevie! This wholesome music was/ is def. some of the best. The 50’s 60’s! I get chills every time I hear it. Classics never die! Loved your reaction. ✌🏼

Italian men in the late 1800's and the first half of the 20th century were some of the greatest men who have ever lived. Were they alive today, the chaos that we're experiencing would not be taking place. They would have neutralized it completely. They had an understanding of what was a threat to civilization and had the spine to act. There are young people out there who are discovering this. Great to see.

You need to check all the Rack Pack group, Frank was one of them. The original movie Ocean 11 was with them(1960). They all have excellent voices and very talented actors.

Ol' Blue Eyes did his thing, One of my favourite singers of all time

You were so fun to watch. He was amazing.😮

Top 5 lyrics of all time! The depth, height, width, and length of the meaning of the lyrics....its a life culmination. A classical ending to a well-rounded life....ending in triumph...listen to the lyrics

I love this type of music....brings me back to being a child when my dad would play these great songs.

I love watching you react to shiz like Sinatra, proper vibing! 😂😂

Frank is polarizing Live Stage presence. Frank met a young Man Quency Jones, who became Frank's producer, music arranger, in his Live Performances you can see Quency conducting the orchestra...

Awesome to see you checking out the Chairman of the Board! Hell yes.

My dude. I love that you appreciate music for what it is "Saying" along with what it is saying. Sinatra is a beast.

Frank Sinatra- That’s Life is a turn up song, one of my favorites

A lot of people thought Frank Sinatra had affiliations with the mafia

Ever heard any Bobby Darin? He's one of my faves from that era

Was not expecting this but I love it

This was dope AF Stevie, love Frank and your videos go hard, match made in heaven

If you were around your grandparents you would know about Frank Sinatra music. This was one of my favorite song by him

Usually here for your Eminem reactions and bar break downs, but I absolutely loved this reaction. Ol' Blue Eyes is a favorite of mine and I cannot like this enough to show how much I appreciate your listen and reaction to him. He DOES go hard, singing from his chest. Thanks for this, Stevie.

Frankie 🐐🔥🔥🔥 Such a Amazing Singer

Thank you for this.

Frank also had ties with the Italian Mafia, particularly out of Chicago. Not to take away from his music, which is amazing, but the man was literally an original gangster.

Most commonly played song at UK funerals

You should check out Janis Joplin soon. Any song by her is phenomenal but you should definitely check out "Summertime" live or studio versions, "Get It While You Can" (live version), "Little Girl Blue" (either version), "Tell Mama" or "Work Me, Lord!" live version (but not the Woodstock version as her voice was shot by the time she performed that song) You won't be disappointed

Frank Sinatra was one of the best crooners ever.....

That song 🎵 has been everywhere

A lot of the artist back then, especially Italians, had to deal with the mafia.

I love that u respect the greats and give them a chance. !

This is the song my mother wants me to bury her with when her time comes.

My mom always loved his diction....you can hear EVERY word he sings. Sinatra was one of a kind, a true legend. BTW...Paul Anka wrote the song for Frank Sinatra.

Check out “that’s life”by Sinatra as well

He was part of the brat pack Dean Martin Sammy Davis jr and so on not my type

Hell yeah ! Frank, Sammy, Dean, etc. All got bangers.

I love Amy Winehouse too

fun fact : this is actualy a cover of a french standard called « comme d’habitude ». Written by Paul Anka specifically for Frank Sinatra, it uses the chords of “Comme d'habitude” by French singer Claude François. Anka bought the rights for this song for just one dollar. Anka described the emotional moment he heard Frank’s recording​: nice deal though

My absolute favorite song! I play it every New Years ♥♥

You know a song is really special when you feel like you've heard it before

Love the old music!!! Always reminds me of my grandparents ❤

👍👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤ This song just give me goosebumps

One song from these times I really enjoyed is "From Rags to Riches" by Tony Bennett. It was on Goodfellas with Ray Liotta and Robert De Niro, one of my favorites.

It's more of a reflection number than a motivation piece, near the end of one's life a nostalgic look/remembrance at one's journey through life.

When you can hit those notes it's even more hype, especially if you've been singing it for a while and slowly getting better at it...

I'm from Ethiopia and these types of songs are my favorites from any English songs. Stevie, you wanna hear vibrato and notes? Try Ethiopian music from the 70s and 80s. Trust me, you won't understand the language, but you'll still fall in love with it. I'll recommend you some songs gladly.

Trump danced with Melania at an inaugural ball to this song. It was a perfect song for him!

@Stevie Knight The reason this song might sound familiar to you is because Jay-Z remade it for his 2002 album The Blueprint²: The Gift & the Curse. Jay has even called himself the Black Sinatra at times.

This song reminds me of mafia the definitive edition back in 2020 Rip Paulie, Sam and tommy Best trio 😢

Frank Sinatra had a couple of other signature songs to one was that's life and another one with strangers in the night. The nickname people had for him was ol blue eyes ❤

My fathers favorite 🎩 enjoyed this take on The song , great reaction 🔥

Yes stevie!, Stevie is the perfect example of a intelligent black man who is appreciating another races/cultures… this is integration, this is how you are accepted and appreciated by other races/cultures. A great example for people to look up to . Excellent video! Your analysis is Brilliant as always.
