"My Way" is a song popularized by Frank Sinatra in 1969. The song was written by Paul Anka and set to the music of the French song "Comme d'habitude" composed by Claude François and Jacques Revaux. The song is about a man looking back on his life and reflecting on the choices he has made. It has become an anthem for self-reflection and individualism. Frank Sinatra's version of "My Way" was a huge commercial success, reaching the top of the charts in the United States and the United Kingdom. The song has since been covered by numerous artists and has become a standard in popular music. It's been a song that has been performed by many artist, Sinatra's version is considered the most iconic, and it became one of his signature songs. The song's popularity has continued to be strong even after his death. The lyrics of the song speak of a man who has lived his life on his own terms and has no regrets. The song is a reminder to live life to the fullest and not to waste time on regrets. "My Way" continues to be a popular song today and is often played at events such as weddings, burials and graduations as a reminder to celebrate individuality and the journey of life. Although this work became Frank Sinatra's signature song, his daughter Tina says the singer came to hate the song: "He didn't like it. That song stuck and he couldn't get it off his shoe. He always thought that song was self-serving and self-indulgent." Well said Frank I agree so here's my take on the sinners song, to make it acceptable all one has to do it replace "My Way" with "His Way".
