Eagerly I wished the morrow; -- vainly I had sought to borrow From my books surcease of sorrow -- sorrow for the lost Lenore -- For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore -- Nameless here for evermore.
My Way by Frank Sinatra. This originated as the French song called Comme D'Habitude (translation: As Usual), written by the composers Jacques Revaux and Gilles Thibault. They took it to the French pop star Claude Francois, who tweaked it a bit (earning a co-writer credit) and recorded the song in 1967, where it was a hit in parts of Europe.
The album is a collection of contemporary pop songs, such as Simon and Garfunkel 's  Mrs. Robinson , and The Beatles '  Yesterday , French songs such as  If You Go Away , and of course the anthemic title song  My Way , which effectively became Sinatra's theme song in this latter stage of his career.ono's liner notes had previously appeared as his New York Times Op-ed column on January 9, 2009. The article discussed Bono's personal relationship with Sinatra, and Sinatra's thoughts on Miles Davis. Bono also mused on Sinatra's performances of  My Way , and the new year.
