What made Frank Sinatra songs so incredibly unique and memorable?
Here are some Sinatra sentiments observed by another musician:
Sinatra Sentiments
He preferred more difficult songs.
He recorded songs that no one else recorded, or that few others attempted to record.
He liked unique songs, power songs, songs with a punch, songs with a slam of truth that other songs lacked.
His unique style quickly made the song his own, and made the song yours.
His phrasing of the lyrics (words) to a song gave a new meaning to the words, and a depth of nuance that was hard to match.
He recorded songs that some would consider ordinary, or borderline songs - songs that you might take or leave, and did a masterful job with them.
Some of these songs weren't much without the voice - "Mrs. Robinson" was one of them. It Was a Very Good Year" was another. Not every voice could have mastered these songs and made them sound so one-of-a-kind and believable.
