Theme From New York, New York
Frank Sinatra · Other Songs - Frank Sinatra
New York, New York.
These vagabon shoes, are longing to stray, right through the very
heart of it, New York, New York.
I want to wake up in a city that doesn't sleep. And find i'm King of the
Hill, Top of the Heap.
These little-town blues, are melting away. I'll make a brand new start
of it in old New York. If I can make it there, i'll make it anywhere.
Its up to you New York, New York.
New York, New York. I want to wake up in a city that never sleeps.
And find i'm A-number-1, top of the list. King of the Hill, A-number-1.
These little town blues, are melting away. I'm gonna make a brand new
start of it, in old New York. And, if I can make it there, i'm gonna make
it anywhere.
It's up to you New York, New York. New York!
Theme From New York, New York
Frank Sinatra's rendition of 'Theme From New York, New York' stands as a definitive example of his mastery over the romantic ballad and lounge jazz genres. Originally composed by John Williams and performed by Barbra Streisand in the 1977 film of the same name, Sinatra's version captures the city's vibrant energy and melancholic allure with his signature vocal warmth. The track exemplifies the mid-to-late 20th-century American pop aesthetic, blending orchestral arrangements with a smooth, intimate delivery that highlights Sinatra's ability to convey emotion through restraint. While the song is often associated with the cinematic soundtrack, Sinatra's recording remains a staple in his discography, showcasing his versatility across different musical contexts and his enduring appeal as a vocalist who could adapt his style to suit both dramatic and casual settings.
