Pity about the dialogue, but this is nevertheless a beautifully iconic clip. I believe it really captures the spirit of the period, and is a super cameo of the young Sinatra, as well as a taste of the Dorsey orchestra and Jo Stafford and the Pied Pipers. What a lineup of talent! Thanks so much for posting this.

I remember in the 60s, as a kid, my mom and dad would sit on the porch and listen to a 40s radio station from time to time. One day after coming in from playing, I was sitting with them and commented that the guy singing on the radio had a really good voice. My mom and dad looked at each other in amazement and smiled. Then dad asked me, "You don't know who that is?" I said, "No." He smiled at me and said, "Why that's Frank Sinatra. That is what he sounded like before he lost his voice." I was amazed. He sounded so different from the songs that I knew he sang in the 60s. Mom and dad used to comment when Sinatra sang on television that he didn't have a good voice anymore. They were right. He was fantastic during his big band days.

I wonder what other artists would sound like after singing so many tunes for so many years. And still he was on the charts for 40 years. He left Columbia because he wouldn't sing the garbage tunes Mitch Miller, the head of Artist & Repertoire, wanted him to sing. Enter Guy Mitchell who would. Miller never pushed Sinatra's records because he was busy developing other artists: rosemary Clooney, Frankie Laine, Johnnie Ray, Dinah Shore and Guy Mitchell. Sinatra left there in late 1953 and was on the charts again in early 1954. Along the way, he had 10 top-20 hits during the 1950s. He stayed with them until he started his own record company, Reprise, in 1961. He signed Dean Martin and Sammy Davis, Jr. in 1962, Trini Lopez in 1963, Beach boys, Cher, Eric Clapton, Rosemary Clooney, Bing Crosby, Fats Domino, Depeche Mode, Fleetwood Mac, John Sebastian, etc. He had his last chart record with "New York, New York" in 1980. His next to last album "Duets" charted at #2.

Great song. Only because it was very early in his career, and he was not in the driver's seat -- could anyone get away with interrupting Sinatra. Especially in what would become a signature tune. Love Jo Stafford, standing there so cool with the backup singers.

This is wy my parents were such great people. They had things like this to enrich there lives.

What a beautiful song. Young Sinatra, Jo Stafford and that entire orchestra. What a time

Just great to hear this music again

Frank Sinatra was singing with the Harry James Orchestra when the lead singer (Jack Leonard) with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra left. Harry James let Frank leave him to take the job with Tommy's orchestra who was big at the time. Frank stayed with Dorsey for almost 3 years until he borrowed money from Tommy Dorsey to go solo. He was replaced by a singer named Ken Curtis who later became an actor. You might remember him as Festus on "Gunsmoke".

5 years and still listening to it as it was the first time

This song is so beautiful bro

The crowd already was starting to sense a superstar in the making. The best was yet to come And so it did

May 23rd 1940, Frank, the Pied Pipers and Dorsey recorded their first big hit, "I'll Never Smile Again". It became "Number One" on the chart five months later. I wish I can find a backing track on this song...

His voice is pure gold . How dare they speak while Frank’s singing !!!!!!!!!

I love Sinatra so much! Even though he’s dead, he still has many teenage Bobby Soxers

Jo Stafford was awesome too. Always on point.

IMHO, Sinatra sung some of his best tunes whilst providing the vocal refrain for the Dorsey band . . . Just completely sublime.

Songs were written properly back then and set to the right music..btw that Sinatra guy can also sing a little

Of course, in 20/20 hindsight, none of us KNEW what we were actually watching - the birth on film of the man who would sing the soundtrack of our lives - Frank Sinatra.

Ruth Lowe escreveu essa música para seu marido que morreu, quando tinham um ano de casados, durante uma cirurgia de emergência, no abdomen. Ela ganhou um concurso de músicas e o próprio Sinatra escolheu dentre milhares de outras. Ela voltou a casar e teve dois ou tres filhos, viveu feliz e morreu velhinha.

Wow... hermosa canción...wow

Frank sings with the Pied Pipers and look closely and the girl singer is Jo Stafford.

PBS has a DVD available that has the complete performance without the dialog. it's on the Big Band dvd.

Virginia O'Brien said that MGM worried about Frank's face. He was a breech baby and they thought he looked too sinister and skinny to be a crooner. LOL at Vegas as the friendliest lil town. This was just before Bugsy Siegel, Meyer Lansky & Co adopted it.

What a world it must have been when this was the #1 song, now its Drake and that sucks.
