“He was a storyteller. There was a lot of background that makes Frank Sinatra such a powerful icon. We all know the strong character that Frank Sinatra was, but the more music of his that you listen to, the more you sense the vulnerable artist that he was.”
Michael Bolton
“It was like Frank Sinatra. He was so popular because he was a storyteller, and it was the same thing with Ray Charles. It didn't make a difference if he was playing jazz, soul, R&B, pop or country. And it was always about the blues and the feelings he portrayed. The blues is awfully powerful.”
Marcus Belgrave
“I wish Frank Sinatra would just shut up and sing.”
Lauren Bacall
“We were working... with Frank Sinatra. He was in the main room, and we were in the lounge. It was a real thrill to meet and actually become friends with people like Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., and Dean Martin. They were all working the Sands at that time... and Bill and I became... well, not close friends, but at least acquaintances where they knew us by name, and most of them just called us the righteous boys.”
Bobby Hatfield
“I saw Sinatra and the Pope on TV when I was two and said 'Who's that guy with Frank Sinatra?'”
Roseanne
“He puts on an unbelievable show because he is so charismatic, and he really does look like Frank (Sinatra). He's a really good impersonator ---- he looks like him, he acts like him, he's even got the blue eyes.”
Cathy Cronin
“It's the opposite of what Frank Sinatra sang. If you can make it there, you can't necessarily make it anywhere in the Republican Party.”
Marshall Wittmann
