- This is an instrumental arrangement of the Frank Sinatra standard by the multi-talented Russian performer Muslim Magomayev. He is not only a singer, he is a composer, pianist, painter, and writer as well. Yet, he is a humble man, well worthy of our respect as human being, not only as an artist. It is my tribute to my favourite Russian pop performer. In Russia, unlike America, there is much crossover between the pop and classical worlds. Muslim has done opera, and the opera star Dmitri Khvorostovsky has done pop. This makes for a richer cultural life. The photos are of Muslim and his family. We are the richer for their presence amongst us.
The life of Muslim Magomayev illustrates why I oppose extreme nationalists. He was able to expand his horizons because he was part of the Empire. The nationalists wish to squash individual freedom so that they can have their "place in the sun". I prefer the way that allows the Muslim Magomayevs to soar free, not fettered by nationalistic limitations.
Thank you, Muslim. You have enriched my life (and that of all other Russians as well!).
I was so sorry to hear this news today, as Muslim is one of my absolutely favourite singers (ALL Russians and all others from the old USSR would say the same!). May God accept him in paradise, as his actions warrant.
My sincere condolences to the Magomayev family. It seems that you are one of us...

Муслим Магометович, вечен!
Его исполнение песни My Way и других не имеет подобий! Он жив в сердцах наших!!! Он с нами всегда!
thanks for posting
Every day we can learn something
No matter where he lived, He was the son of Azerbaijan, he had Azerbaijani blood. He grew up in Azerbaijan and buried in Azerbaijan. He was way far from being russian.
then you'd better call him Soviet, by the name of the empire, you were talking about. because ethnically and identically he is Azerbaijani. but thans anyway.
R.I.P great master...
Because he sang in Russian, was an Honoured Artist of Russia, lived in Russia, was married to a Russian, and had a home in Moscow. How much more Russian can you get? Besides... all Russians love the "Boss"... he was one of us!

@UNdesiredReality Of course, he was... as he was the BOSS of all the old USSR. EVERYONE loved him. He was the Soviet "Chairman of the Board"... that's all that there is to say!

Nooooooooo! :D
This is not a Frank Sinatra.s song. This song is a Claude François one, and the english version was from Paul Anka…
Sinatra never wrote any songs, only sung songs written by others,
One of best ewer end forewer!
