Come Swing With Me!, 1961
written by Sammy Cahn and Jule Styne, 1946
Sinatra originally recorded this song in 1946, but re-recorded it for his last swing album for Capitol. It's written from the point of view of a suitor who begs his inamorata for just a few more moments together, unwilling for the evening to end: "All week long I dreamed about our Saturday date / Don't you know that Sunday morning you can sleep late?" Sinatra remains in strong vocal form, and Billy May's orchestra wisely gives him the spotlight, while still turning that classic big band sound, with full brass stabs, all the way up.
