Frank Sinatra is an undisputed legend in the music industry. His impact stretches far beyond just his time period or even the soothing crooning singing style he perfected. Even to this day his impact is felt in a wide variety of genres including the "Young Sinatra" hip hop mixtape series released by rapper Logic. Nancy (With the Laughing Face) totally highlights classic Frank Sinatra. The sultry composition of the music is incredible and Frank Sinatra's voice is the cherry on top to make this song absolutely incredible. Nancy (With the Laughing Face) and actually Frank Sinatra's style in general is outside what I would typically consider my style of music, but for some reason I totally dig this song and much of Frank Sinatra's music. I feel like this song is a perfect description of love and romance and is a great song to just chill and listen to. The instruments in this song and its overall sound are different than what is typical in today's music but they pull of a sound so exquisite together that this song continues to be a classic and well known song. With his performance on Nancy (With the Laughing Face), Frank Sinatra defines himself as one of the greatest singers of all time.
I really enjoyed listening to this song this week. I wouldn't necessarily consider Frank Sinatra's style my kind of music either, but I really did like this one and many others as I continued to explore him and the mark that he left on the world through his music. Nearly all of the music that we have been listening to is so different than what is typical in today's sound, but I think that is what makes it so unique and, oftentimes, fun to listen to.
