Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now they look as though they're here to stay
Oh I believe in yesterday, oh I believe in yesterday
Suddenly I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me, oh yesterday came suddenly
Why she had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away, oh I believe in yesterday
Why she had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong , now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away, oh I believe in yesterday

Frank Sinatra

Thought by many to be one of the best singers of all time, Frank Sinatra is truly a music legend. Sinatra was born in Hoboken, New Jersey in 1915, and his music is still noteworthy and enjoyed today, even though he sadly passed in 1998.

Sinatra took a liking to music from a young age, and began singing soon after. His uncle gave him a ukulele for his fifteenth birthday, and he started playing at family gatherings. During his time at Demarest High School in Demarest, New Jersey, he arranged bands for school dances.

As a teenager in the 1930s, Sinatra began singing professionally, despite not being able to read music. When he was 20, his mom persuaded him to join a local singing group. The group became a success after winning a talent show hosted by Edward Bowes. Their prize was a six-month contract to perform on stage and on the radio across the U.S.
