Fantastic!!....from a 70 y/o, conservative traditionalist about stuff such as this, combat vet.

You aint lived till you've heard it from The Chairman of the Board, done in his own swing style. Damn it was good.

Looked for a you tube... there's Joe Piscopo doing it as Frank... but its not as Frank sang the song. Frank was just...so fluid, smooth. Joe's version is a musical cartoon.

Frankie's was as good as they get. I'm just really, really happy to hear a today, contemporary version that doesn't remind me of the Sex Pistols on a bad day.

Nothing beats hearing the Marine Band play it live...

Ahhh....I know where you're coming from and do appreciate it. But I've never been big on military bands.

I saw that posted on another forum, and watched it a half dozen times over the span of a couple of days. It actually brought a tear or two to my eyes. Maybe these guys rendition will at least instill a bit of "American partiotism" into their generation.

But then again, I was a big fan of the Jimi Hendrix rendition when he opened at Woodstock some 40+ years ago.

Call me old school, but I prefer to hear it played as it was originally written.
