Frank Sinatra 'Where or When'

SPECIAL REQUEST
"Where or When," written by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart for their 1937 Broadway musical, Babes In Arms, was recorded by Frank Sinatra with Nelson Riddle arranging and conducting on September 11, 1958, but it did not appear until the release of The Rare Sinatra LP in 1978 in Britain by Capitol / EMI. It can be found as a bonus track on the Frank Sinatra Sings for Only the Lonely CD on Capitol and on the CD version of The Rare Sinatra which appears as disc 21 of The Capitol Years box set released in the UK in 1998. In the liner notes of the Only the Lonely CD Pete Welding has written: "Supported solely by pianist Bill Miller for the first 28 bars, Sinatra sings with heartfelt expressiveness, shaping the song with a keen sense of drama, building in emotional intensity all the while. The orchestra enters only at the very end of the performance, capping off what is arguably one of the singer's finest and most touchingly poignant ballad readings."

Frank's voice is liquid Gold. The man and his voice are immortal.

It took me a while to appreciate Frank Sinatra but after I got a little bit older yeah he he's the man

[Glenn-yb]

As always, no one could sing this song with such emotion & passion. His Diction and Phrasing will never be matched. Thanks for all of the wonderful memories. I got to see him live in London, New York and at Sanctuary Cove in Queensland, Australia. I will never forget those great performances.

Sinatra's singing, especially on songs like this, or' what's new, ' has the uncanny ability to go past musicality and touch your emotions in a way no other singer can. Utterly and totally Unique!

I remember where and when I hear this song for the first time. And I Love her forever ! ❤

[jrherrera]

Its not just his voice but the phrasing & the way he interprets the song. He lives the song. Ive heard beautiful voices but they dont have the same impact on you if they dont live the song.

The unforgettable Frank Sinatra!!!! GOD bless your Soul 💖!

This is the greatest version ever sung of this great song. When he begins he’s almost talking, and intimately, but then he gradually builds up to an operatic crescendo that gives the words a universal meaning.

“Frank Sinatra is a singer that comes along once in a lifetime”
“But why did it have to be MY lifetime”- Bing Crosby

Always great to hear Bill Miller's beautiful piano playing.

Say what you want about Francis Albert, but you got to agree that that voice was a gift, straight from God.Frank was one of a kind, the only one of his kind.He will never have a successor; imitators yes, by the millions; successor, not a chance !

I love this way of singing where there is all the time in the world to express every note with all their nuances.

[robertsmit]

It seems we stood and talked like this, before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But I cant remember where or when

The cloths you're wearing are the cloths, you wore
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But I can't remember where or when

Some things that happened for the first time
Seem to be happening again

And so it seems that we have met before
And laughed before, and loved before
But who knows where or when

[theressamurphy]

Have you ever met someone whom you feel like you have known before? Frank's music is always excellent

[DanielPerez-hyts]

Unbelievable. Frank has 3 different versions of this in 3 different decades but this is magnificent

[bryanrawlinson]

He just Doesn't Sing the Lyric. He Enacts It 👌👌👌
