Probably the best, most dynamic live performance of this song ever captured on video.. Frank is absolutely mesmerizing here, his phrasing and splitting the time to make it swing even harder is off the charts, plus his whole body movements ( the Sinatra ‘shoulder shimmy’) and facial expressions expressions convey a great joy in his performance, a man supremely confident in his skin and the band under the equally animated conducting of the great Quincy Jones complements the Chairman perfectly! And that trombone solo, although it diverges from the legendary Milt Bernhardt solo, might be just as good, or even better in that moment! This folks, is one for the ages!
Thanks for such an expressive comment. You're right. I just saw this for the first time ever, though I've listened and watched Sinatra since I was maybe 3 years old (that would be 1956). His pure enjoyment, especially when he sat and acknowledged the band, is unmatched in the annals of recorded music (well, maybe, see Cream, Crossroads, Jimi Hendrix, any time). This is an absolute classic. I also love his "High Hopes" with all those kids (saw it live when I was just like those kids). Let's revive the age of innocence.
Un privilegio disfrutar este video con dos grandes Frank con la Orquesta dirigida nada más y nada menos que por Quincy Jones, solo que me quisiera imaginar como hubiera sido el solo de Trombon a cargo de Melba Liston❤
He's essentially b&w Beiber, some character in his voice and a load of charisma but not the best singer of his day let alone all time. He does have good PR: eg he wasn;t the heart of the ratpack, that was Bogart. Wrote a handful of forgettable trash. Unskilled actor whose big personality did a lot of heavy lifting for his lack of ability. Highly over-rated.
@Corpsefoot Gaming Not talent and off-key xDDDDD Sure!! Now that you got some attention, you can leave. But please, don't listen to this untalented and off-key singer again.
he takes a step back and lets the trombonist take the spotlight during his solo. What a fucking class act. Not only a great singer, but a true showman. Long live Sinatra.
O.V. Bonner Dude, You are so Right!!! The Chairman will forever stand the test of time. Don't you wish we had a time machine and we're in his audience at one of his Vegas shows? Phyllis O
Un verdadero cantante en toda la extensión de la palabra, sin bailecillos mafailones, sin luces estrombóticas que sólo lamparean, sin escenarios fastuosos que sólo distraen la atención y tratan de resarcir lo poco que traen los actuales cantantes, sin coros con mini faldas ni mallones pegados para complacer la lujuria de algunos. Simplemente: LA VOZ, talento y experiencia de uno de los mejores cantantes de todos los tiempos, El gran "Sinatra". Que Dios se apiade de su alma y le otorgue el eterno descanso.
The superman of singers. An uncanny sense of musical, lyrical improvisation...every song he sings/sang - an unforgettably, great entertainment adventure!
My baby is 4 1/2 months old and he loves Sinatra...he loved it in my belly and still calms down when he hears this song specifically..ohhhh how I love Old Blue Eyes
Wow. It starts out great and gets better. Frank just feels it...gets into a nice groove with the players and they all team up on every single note to bring it home. Magic. Live Music doesn't get much better than this.
I'm so happy that my band director had us playing Fly Me To The Moon because it introduced me to this amazing, wonderful, artist who inspired me to play to best of my potential. Words don't even describe how much I look up to this man and how just outstanding he was.
Best air control and enunciation ever. The way he could hold his breath and hit another whole line never ceases to amaze me. 🧡 My grandfather raised me right :)
His dynamics were insane. Nice and easy .. bigger .. back to easy .. GIGANTIC (that growl at 2:55) and then soft as a feather. No one like him. Add in how hilarious him and his "pack" were and he's probably the best entertainer of all time. Oh - and throw an academy award in there, just for kicks. Great video! Plus that band was just smokin! These days if a song has a 4th chord it's considered musical genius.
Every single musician sharing that stage with Frank knew damn well they were playing for and in the presence of greatness. There is NO equal in his genre.
My twin brother and I watched the special of Frank on HBO this weekend. My brother just thinks this man is the greatest......... and he is ..... was.... is. So i came into the office this morning and on you tube, played, "I've got you under my skin." As they said in the documentary, he is an "Icon."
My favorite Sinatra year,singing a song he wears like a glove,he owns this song. I have loved Sinatra my entire life,I love to look at Sinatra when he sings,he is mesmerizing. I love,love,love Sinatra. I inherited my love of Sinatra from my mom who feels the same way,haha. What a man,what a voice,oozing charisma. I got to see him in Tacoma,you could hear a pin drop when he came out then a roar. Mr Sinatra was in the house.
Pure and total genius. Just try singing this in the shower to see how difficult it is and how much tone and subtlety he applies. He was a master. Wonderful. Thanks for posting this.
THE best version of this song, more dynamic than the Count Basie album, thanks I think to Quincy Jones conducting. Frank is really into the beat here, completely in sync with the music. The trombone solo is the best of all, to which Frank sits down out of respect, and the snapping finger salute he does is the essence of cool.
lcs1956 yeah, great stuff and like you said he shows his respect indeed....speaking of which it would be also respectful if you'd not refer to a trombone solo as a trumpet solo. Ugh! you got under my skin with that!...LOL;-) (and yeah that unquestionably was Q conducting.)
I've watched that clip for years wondering if I was the only one to think that same thing regarding his dynamic accenting vocal beat. Thanks for that perfect description. Obviously, totally agree!!
that's quincy in back with the best band of the 20th century. frank up front with all the solo horns you need coming out of his little chest. the best, can't be beat and never will be. wow !
Это выступление очень порадовало меня, здесь Фрэнк Синатра ещё молод, мне нравится его манера исполнения и проживания музыки и песни на сцене, он действительно живёт на сцене и поёт вживую так, что теперь уже нет таких, удивительный 20 век, браво! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
+Aragorn Ellessar He didn't write his songs. This one is a Cole Porter song, for instance. Sinatra did have a great, distinctive voice, but what made Sinatra extra special was the WAY he interpreted them...especially his "phrasing".
This performance is from a benefit concert for Dismas House in St. Louis that was originally broadcast on closed circuit television. Several years ago, it was re-broadcast on HBO or Showtime and thereafter, it was commercially released on a DVD accompanying a Rat Pack CD. Sinatra is backed by Count Basie and Quincy Jones, a Sinatra friend, is conducting the orchestra.
Nick at Night (in 1998) as part of The Museum of Television & Radio Showcase series and released on DVD as part of the Ultimate Rat Pack Collection: Live & Swingin.
One of the best pop songs of the century. Takes supreme power and breath control. This girl has tried it !! dang it's difficult!!! I dropped it quickly. Thank you Cole Porter
Try the anniversary song by Al Jolson. www.google.com/search?q=anniversary+song+by+Al+Jolson.&oq=anniversary+song+by+Al+Jolson.&aqs=chrome..69i57&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
My damn good taste in music brought ME here! NOTHING else. I love Batman, but he didn’t bring me here. I’ve been listening to this man (and his friends too) since I was nine years old.
Jules Rensch Absolutely! Diana Krall is great and she has acknowledged the influence of Sinatra and Peggy Lee on her work. The Look Of Love CD that she recorded a few years ago had Claus Ogerman as the arranger; he served the same role on Sinatra's album with Antonio Carlos Jobim in the mid 60s.
Somebody felt that spirit and thought it was church at 3:13 ("sing it, Frank!"); even Frank had to laugh but that drop from the crescendo that low note was smooth as hell! Had to be someone Black, I feel lol
I think it was too quick to laugh at that. It must have been something a little before that. Maybe the guy was doing something crazy like standing up and swerving while drunk.
@@NoOne-kr4jc Nah, that was someone feeling the music & Frank! There's never "too quick" when you feel something beyond normal human perception. That's why especially musicians, athletes, creative people in general, or simply music lovers who are extremely sensitive to sound and frequency and in the zone can simply feel things damn near psychically. Logical/left-brain thinkers usually don't get it, just like right-brain creatives usually don't get excited by mathematics. We all have our own superpowers 😉
Well, don't sacrifice you education (hopefully not brainwashed propaganda from the state/government) because of Frank, but God bless you for having taste and class when it comes to (fossil times) music. This is actually my mother's music, which I disdained as a kid, but none the less, she kept playing Frank's records, and I now have a deep appreciation of Frank's music, thanks to my mom.

Yeah, this is by the best performance of this, to me, in any format. He and that band were perfect.
Yessir
@@cavaleermountaineer3839 Not video, but the version from 1974 released in the album Standing Room Only is better.

The transition to that "because I've got you" at the end is incredible.
Sinatra had a really awesome voice there is no mistaking it.. this guy was a cool cat
One of the best singers in the history of the world.
He's essentially b&w Beiber, some character in his voice and a load of charisma but not the best singer of his day let alone all time. He does have good PR: eg he wasn;t the heart of the ratpack, that was Bogart. Wrote a handful of forgettable trash. Unskilled actor whose big personality did a lot of heavy lifting for his lack of ability. Highly over-rated.
@@sm-tm3dr I'd disagree, Sinatra inspired Michael Buble, Seth MacFarlane, and Logic
These guys above clearly don't know what talent means Lol
Corpsefoot Gaming whatever he was or wasn't, he was hugely popular. I love him.
@Corpsefoot Gaming Not talent and off-key xDDDDD Sure!! Now that you got some attention, you can leave. But please, don't listen to this untalented and off-key singer again.
My love of Frank Sinatra came from my mother. After listening to him for years I can never get enough.
One of the GREATEST live performances EVER!!!!
His timing and phrasing is impeccable.
yup...I remember when I first understood that.
he takes a step back and lets the trombonist take the spotlight during his solo. What a fucking class act. Not only a great singer, but a true showman. Long live Sinatra.
Not a great singer? Oh man...I hope Santa brings you some ears for Christmas.
jefft022 In addition to being a great singer, he was a great showman - what I said rephrased.
jefft022 Not "only" a great singer... I hope Santa brings you eyes for christmas
jefft022 Santa needs to bring you glasses for Christmas.
Oh stay off the site with your gabbing during a great performance!
Probably the very best voice of all time.
O.V. Bonner Dude, You are so Right!!! The Chairman will forever stand the test of time. Don't you wish we had a time machine and we're in his audience at one of his Vegas shows? Phyllis O
@Glenn Medina obviously he's not going to call himself the best singer... lol?
The Voice.
for sure up there in the top but he did not have a multi genre voice sadly such as elvis or tom jones...but he is the best crooner/jazz singer ever.
It helps to have great songs to sing. Frank’s Nelson Riddle swing ear is my favorite. I love that swing feeling. Frank’s phrasing was superb.

Frank Sinatra,.....I miss those days...brings back good times....thanks for timeless memories
I love Frank Sinatra.I can. pick out his voice anywhere.
God bless him.
I'm a hiphop man and I think this is simply magnificent we will never have music like it again. Let's keep real music alive
I think his voice was the most magnificent during this time. Amazing...
One of the greatest songs of all time sung by the greatest singer of all time.
I got chills listening to this. A definitive version of this song.
My favorite Sinatra song, sung by my favorite singer and performed by my favorite band.
.... conducted by my favorite conductor 😄😄
The voice that time will never have again.superb!!
Seth MacFarlane ;)
Who?? Why mention other singers on this great site!
I really miss Frank. He was one of a kind!
The phrasing, that delivery...so good
Totally agree
Of all Francis's strenghts, there were many, his phrasing was stellar. The modern-day Bard. The poet.
His voice is always full of life, I cannot stop listening to him
Jesus. A thousand times I heard it, a thousand times new.
What a wonderful entertainer he was, sadly missed!!!!!
Damn! Always the first time. And that Riddle arrangement.... Thanks, Frank. Always saving me.
The superman of singers. An uncanny sense of musical, lyrical improvisation...every song he sings/sang - an unforgettably, great entertainment adventure!
My baby is 4 1/2 months old and he loves Sinatra...he loved it in my belly and still calms down when he hears this song specifically..ohhhh how I love Old Blue Eyes
Life was so much better then....listen to the lyric, melody, rhythm and harmony- Frank and his kick ass band. It repeats in my ear!
Wow. It starts out great and gets better. Frank just feels it...gets into a nice groove with the players and they all team up on every single note to bring it home. Magic. Live Music doesn't get much better than this.
I'm so happy that my band director had us playing Fly Me To The Moon because it introduced me to this amazing, wonderful, artist who inspired me to play to best of my potential. Words don't even describe how much I look up to this man and how just outstanding he was.
Merci Dennis via Frank Sinatra forever and ever ♪ ^_^♪
Merci beaucoup à tous les musiciens 🎹🎹🎸🎤🥁⊰✿
Best air control and enunciation ever. The way he could hold his breath and hit another whole line never ceases to amaze me. 🧡 My grandfather raised me right :)
This song written by one legend interpreted by another is the best of America.
His dynamics were insane. Nice and easy .. bigger .. back to easy .. GIGANTIC (that growl at 2:55) and then soft as a feather. No one like him.

My most favorite song of all of Frank's tunes.

Mr Sinatra was in the house.
My Dad was a Sinatra fan This when music was real I have a collection of Frank Sinatra on CD
Sinatras greatest upbeat recording..and maybe the greatest musical recording of all time.
Pure and total genius. Just try singing this in the shower to see how difficult it is and how much tone and subtlety he applies. He was a master. Wonderful. Thanks for posting this.
My favourite version of this by the chairman of the board, CB by far the best orchestra backing him
He will always be King of music!
And Q directing the orchestra, his arrangements are legendary
THE best version of this song, more dynamic than the Count Basie album, thanks I think to Quincy Jones conducting. Frank is really into the beat here, completely in sync with the music. The trombone solo is the best of all, to which Frank sits down out of respect, and the snapping finger salute he does is the essence of cool.

(and yeah that unquestionably was Q conducting.)
And if you're going to reference the trombone solo, please mention the man performing it......the GREAT Al Grey!!!!! :)
I've watched that clip for years wondering if I was the only one to think that same thing regarding his dynamic accenting vocal beat. Thanks for that perfect description. Obviously, totally agree!!
theres a slightly better one on the ‘standing room only’ album trusts moi
of course quincy was also conducting on the live basie album...
Marvelous absolutely adore this man not my generation but hope to find him somewhere in time ❤
Wow! The thing just jumps! And the trumpet solo...was epic!!! Frank was all smiles...the king of cool.
Craig Steele Trumpet?
Trombone
Meraviglioso! 🎶❤️🎶 from Lake Como Italy
that's quincy in back with the best band of the 20th century. frank up front with all the solo horns you need coming out of his little chest. the best, can't be beat and never will be. wow !
love this live version !! one of his best !!!
I second those bumps. Wow! Just wonderful!

Я свами полностью согласен. Кто лучше Синатра или Магомаев?😊
Frank is the very definition of smooth
GORGEOUS.....AWESOME.....Sinatra was the BEST.....!!!!!
He is
Makes me more relax everytime I hear this song.i always feel young.
I love all these Sinatra's concerts and this most fabulous voice of all times ! ... and now I love the Jack Daniel's too ! :-)
His voice is not that special. It are his songs.
+Aragorn Ellessar He didn't write his songs. This one is a Cole Porter song, for instance. Sinatra did have a great, distinctive voice, but what made Sinatra extra special was the WAY he interpreted them...especially his "phrasing".

Absolutely the greatest singer , America has ever produced.
Without a doubt the very best.
This voice will never come back!

Steven Lessner I recently purchased this dvd...it is great!! they were having such a great time...
It's by far the best live recordings of him IMO
thanks for the info, I've been searching for the concert info to purchase the videos.
great clip. The band has Sinatra fired up. Count Basie Band with guns blazing. Looks like Quincy Jones conducting. Tons of talent on that stage.
Yup, that's Q
Such a natur-ral swagger that this man has.
The swing and phrasing he had was unique, his body expression, natural seducer and a musician without equal what is usually called a genius!!
He has a beautiful voice!
Frank Sinatra I've got you under my skin..Live.thnx Dennis.
My favorite, by all means!! Love Sinatra
perfect voice..perfect timing.. Just the best!
still my favorite, So many things to remember, love it!!
Great Frank one of his best Always the best
One of the best pop songs of the century.
Takes supreme power and breath control.
This girl has tried it !! dang it's difficult!!! I dropped it quickly.
Thank you Cole Porter
I believe that was Al Grey on the trombone solo. Quincy Jones was, of course, conducting the Count Basie orchestra.
I! LOVE! HIS! MUSIC!!!
Such a classy guy. Thanks for posting.
Wonderful superb
Our wedding first dance song... I love it. :)

No one makes music like this anymore. So sad.
Tony Lopez there are still great singers and big bands out there.. just look for them and support local artists
Come on. Frank was one in a million. He worked at his craft like a musician did.
Music then it was carefree entertainment now it is social engineering
My damn good taste in music brought ME here! NOTHING else. I love Batman, but he didn’t bring me here. I’ve been listening to this man (and his friends too) since I was nine years old.
My favourite song and arrangement second to none. The orchestration is simply fabulous...
I come here when I need some sunshine and swag. Love your vibe and your voice, Frank Sinatra! You live on!! :-*
Awesome!!! Love this Song... Frank Sinatra in Rare Form!!
Goose bumps....
the best...nothing more to say...
i love Frank Sinatra....... i love FLY ME TO THE MOON also
BEAUTIFUL SONG ..... THANK YOU FOR SHARING
we went to see Diana Krall on Saturday night..she too, is a student of Sinatra...yes, the phrasing, the style, lives on!

Hi Jules (et. al.!),
I think Diane Krall is a way better pianist than vocalist...in her general age range, I think Tierney Sutton is terrific!!
☺ Jan
jan wintz Tierney. is great !..thanks for adding her to the mix...I would certainly love to see her live!
Thanx Jan!

@@ahmedsirour I meant in terms of Frank reacting to the person.
Frank Sinatra, Doris Day, Dean Martin, Ella Fitzgerald......heavenly!
The voice perfection 😎
very charasmatic man!!!....n the charisma carried over to his singing voice...esp in his early days...
I have missed many homework assignments listening to this song and many others of his...Hard to stop.
Well, don't sacrifice you education (hopefully not brainwashed propaganda from the state/government) because of Frank, but God bless you for having taste and class when it comes to (fossil times) music.

He will never ever be replaced. He has a gift that is the greatest of all time
He was fantastic when I saw him in his final performance in London the best jaz big band ever and a talented actor ♥️♥️💕
Captivating like no other. One of a kind.
I'm glad that people are hearing this song.
Sad that people have only heard it for the first time through a 2016 flick.
OUCH!!!!!!
Agree!
Perfection.
Frank Sinatra is in Heaven with GREAT GOD OF EVERYTHING
Elegante y bella canción
Quincy is having a friggin blast while conducting this song! Just watch.
No one compared to this man now. His voice is everything!
While NASA searches for life on other worlds, we don't even realize that Frank Sinatra was from another planet, no one could ever match him.
Masterful. It just doesn't get any better than this.
Best male jazz vocalist ever. And I mainly prefer male singers anyway. That phrasing, oh that phrasing...
***** Malachi Mulligan Bullock befriending jejune Jesuit jibe phrasing one might say.
not jazz....although VERY good!
this is class
Makes me stop .. before I begin..... So So smooth....
A melhor música do Sinatra. The Best music of Sinatra. I am ver ver Sinatra'fans
