Frank Sinatra evolueerde van jonge, swingende charmeur tot eminent vertolker van melancholische levensliederen. In de eliminatieronde zal blijken waarmee hij het beste scoort.

Dat verbaast mij ook flink!

Bij iemand met zo’n reusachtige discografie is het wel heel pijnlijk om weg te stemmen. Je zou probleemloos een lijst van vijftig kwaliteitsnummers samen kunnen stellen. Toch ben ik eruit gekomen.

Het kan nog alle kanten uit de tweede ronde. Voor sommige liedjes kan één stem meer of minder het verschil betekenen tussen Alles of Helemaal Niets. Stemmen kan nog tot 20.00h.

Voor een persoonlijke favoriet is het helaas nothing at all geworden. Ook de jaren '40 liggen er volledig uit. Gelukkig blijft er ruimschoots voldoende over voor een ijzersterke eindlijst. Zo dadelijk start ik de FINALE op met de eenentwintig overblijvers.

FINALE!!

Frank Sinatra cultiveerde het imago van de wat nonchalante gentleman met een sigaret en een trilbyhoed die een beetje scheef stond. Gedurende meer dan een halve eeuw bleef hij optreden en opnamen maken. Uit zijn gigantische oeuvre heeft dit forum eenentwintig liedjes gekozen die met elkaar zullen wedijveren voor de top of the list. Nu is het aan jullie om een persoonlijke top 10 samen te stellen uit de onderstaande lijst.
