Blue moon
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

Don’t miss this recording of “Something Stupid” sung by father and daughter combo Frank and Nancy Sinatra.
I practice every day to find some clever lines to say
To make the meaning come through
But then I think I’ll wait until the evening gets late and I’m alone with you
The time is right, your perfume fills my head, the stars get red and, oh, the night’s so blue
And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like “I love you”
The clip features photos of both music superstars from various points of their career.

Now the children try to find it
And they can’t believe their eyes
`cause the old team just isn’t playing
And the new team hardly tries
And the sky has got so cloudy
When it used to be so clear
And the summer went so quickly this year
Yes, there used to be a ballpark right here
The audio clip used for this video is from a live performance of the song taken in April 8, 1974 from Carnegie Hall.

Listen as Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin sing that traditional New Year’s Eve anthem, “Auld Lang Syne”
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And years of auld lang syne!
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We’ll take a cup o’ kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
