The song is most commonly associated with Frank Sinatra (who had a hit with it as a member of The Pied Pipers while he was a part of Tommy Dorsey's orchestra [1] and later for his Come Fly with Me album), but many others have recorded it and it is considered a standard of traditional pop music.


Other recordings




During 1966 to 1969, The Supremes (Diana Ross, Florence Ballard, Mary Wilson) performed this song as part of a medley with "The Lady Is a Tramp" in nightclubs such as the Copacabana in 1967 and Roostertail in 1966. The 1968 album, Live at London's Talk of the Town, had the song included with the same medley.
