Frank's later stuff makes me think 'foxtrot' personally. I really do love his voice, but to be honest sometimes the way he plays with time really annoys me. Sometimes the melody is so beautiful that you should just sing it straight.
Granted. And many beginner singers stray too far from the melody as a matter of course instead of alluding to it. (Not quite the problem with Sinatra, more was a problem with people like me. :-) )

But sometimes the same old (albeit originally fantastic) melody becomes boring after several years. That's why the ability to refresh an old melody is so celebrated.
