I only knew the song from Ella Fitzgerald’s version, played very very often, so a welcome revelation. The line about being tired of eating food that’s canned is such a familiar 20th-century image of bachelor domestic incompetence that I thought it was conceived for a male voice, or even possibly a male character in a musical.
The Teddy Stauffer video ends like the opening of Leni Reifenstahl’s “Olympia.” It’s wholly a filmization of hurrying home. Though only instrumental here, I infer that the song, and the meaning of its title, must already have been somewhat familiar to German audiences.
well that's what makes horse races! I think he sings wonderfully, but he's not doing a strict Sinatra impression - it's not an Elvis imitator kind of a thing - he's just trying to fit into the arrangement and sing it like himself, not to fool anybody into thinking that he's actually FS. I think he does a terrific job overall.

Sorry, but while the charts are great, MacFarlane is so far from Frank that hearing him sing them is a huge turn-off. Two thumbs down on the post.
