Comment:
Frank Sinatra wasn't a songwriter, he was a song [i]interpreter[/i], and a masterful one at that, so our covers list surveys songs that, although they didn't spring from Sinatra's own pen, still bear his indelible stamp. Maroon 5 slides into Vegas-lounge mode for a cool-school reading of "The Way You Look Tonight." (Other artists featured here, including the Kooks and the Kills, also paid homage to Ol' Blue Eyes in the iTunes exclusive "His Way, Our Way" promotion.) Sinatra fan (and occasional collaborator) Bono fronts U2 as they inject a double-shot of rock 'n' roll, Dublin-style, into the Broadway classic "Night and Day (Steel String Remix)." And Marvin Gaye —who actually, in his words, aspired to be "the black Frank Sinatra" — struts right into the Copa and brings the house down with a swinging version of "Strangers In the Night," recorded [i]just days[/i] after Sinatra's original hit #1. But don't stop exploring here — the more you hear, the more you'll understand why so many artists wanted to do Frank's music [i]their[/i] way.
