Ok...ya got me on a kick, though he's never far from my mind. My appreciation of Sinatra's music has grown over the years. My dad too, listened to lots of Sinatra's music.

My pop when he was alive taught me the jitterbug when i was around 12...and after that he used to take me dancing everywhere. These were our 2 favorite songs to dance to:

YouTube - Bobby Darin - Mack the Knife

YouTube - Glenn Miller-In The Mood

YouTube - Bobby Darin - Artificial flowers

 

[Margene]

OMG! I love those all! "In the Mood"!! I can't hear it without my toes tapping wildly. Unfortunately, neither of my parents cared for dancing, but I learned in high school, in a gym class. Part of ball room dance. So I dance like mad when I hear that music. I don't care who's watching either!

What great memories you have!

I think a lot of the new Sinatra fans missed his stormy past. He was a real character especially when he left the Dorsey band as their "boy" singer. Whether ya liked him or not as a person, he was very controversial, you had to love him as a singer.

[GuesSAngel]

i know all about his past, growing up he was my favorite singer...i really didn't know anything that people my age at that time listened to, and stupid enough...i was made fun of for the taste of music i loved.
