When I was twenty-two...

I borrowed a Sinatra CD from my brother-in-law called "The Very Good Years" which was a compilation. So, I've been listening to that since yesterday. And the songs are all in my head.

I don't know what it is, but Frank has a way of making everything fade away. No matter what is going on in my life, or the world, none of it matters when I'm listening to these songs. It's really something I haven't experienced before. I have always loved standards, but Frank does 'em right. It's a real mood changer. This is what music should be all about. It lets me escape my frustrations for a little bit, not dwell on them, like a lot of current stuff seems to do.

I guess Frank doesn't appeal to everyone, but... why not?
