Cancion a mi manera de frank sinatra en español letra

my way (lyrics – jose jose)

I did it my way».for what is a man, what has he got?if not himself, then he has naught.to say the things he truly feelsAnd not the words of one who kneelsThe record shows I took the blowsAnd did it my way….

I loved, I laughed and I sufferedI had my turn to win, I also lostAnd now, when the tears subside,I find it so entertainingTo think I did it allLet me say it, without shyness, «Oh no, Oh it wasn’t my case,I did it all my way.»

For what is a man, what has he achievedIf he’s not true to himself, he has nothing.To say the things he really feelsAnd not the words of one who kneelsMy story shows that I took the blowsAnd did it all my own way…..

in my original way

Europe had just gone through a bloody war. Not only were there the irrecoverable human losses, but countries were destroyed and economies were in tatters. A little glamour was needed.

Grief-stricken by the breakup, Claude François wrote on the paper tablecloth of a restaurant the lyrics for a song. It speaks of the routine that can be created in a couple’s relationship. One day, around the swimming pool of his house, he presented the lyrics to his friend Gilles Thibaut and it turned out that the lyrics perfectly matched the melody that Claude François had already rejected.

Claude François was a singer of French and Italian origin born in Egypt. Before the arrival of the nationalist Nasser to the Egyptian presidency, Egypt was a veritable hotbed of foreigners: English, French, Italians and many more. Claude François’ father was one of the top employees of the Suez Canal that the French had built and also managed.

Paul Anka bought the rights to put English lyrics to the melody and was inspired by the life of Frank Sinatra. The lyrics speak of the retrospective that a mature man, with great experiences, makes about the important events of his life. The song immediately had great success in English in Frank Sinatra’s voice, but it was Elvis Presley’s version that gave it the push and the fame that we know it today.

frank sinatra my way lyrics

«My Way» (A mi manera or A mi modo) is a popular song adapted to English by Paul Anka, based on the French song Comme d’habitude, written by Claude François and Jacques Revaux with lyrics in French by Claude François and Gilles Thibaut composed by Claude thinking of his recent sentimental breakup with the also singer, France Gall.

The song speaks of an elderly man, already close to death, who looks with satisfaction at the events of his life, while he relates some of the most relevant aspects of it to a friend, who listens attentively sitting next to him.

The personality of that man is defined as strong, confident and determined; he is a man who does not depend on others to progress, who does what he feels and says what he thinks, who is not afraid of the challenges that life has presented him and who, when they seemed to overcome him, has known how to solve them my way (I did it my way, in English), an expression that is repeated in the chorus of the song.

At the end of the day, seeing his life go by, he is happy with the way he lived, the course his life took and what he got out of it, although he admits that he regrets certain things and has suffered great sadness.
