Pongo a tu alcance letras de algunas canciones interpretadas por Frank Sinatra. Las canciones las puedes bajar de internet.

Una de las  mejores formas de practicar la pronunciación y  comprensión es escuchando canciones. Mi consejo es que escuches estas canciones, las escuches una y otra vez intentando comprender el mensaje de cada una de ellas y si puedes, en la medida que vayas familiarizandote con cada una, bueno, tambien las interpretes, te puedo asegurar que es un excelente ejercicio.

LETRAS DE LAS CANCIONES DE FRANK SINATRA

New York, New York

Start spreadin' the news,
I'm leavin' today
I want to be a part of it,
New York, New York...
These vagabond shoes
Are longing to stray
Right through the very heart of it,
New York, New York...

I wanna wake up in a city
That doesn't sleep
And find I'm king of the hill,
Top of the heap...

These little town blues
Are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it,
In old New York...
If I can make it there,
I'll make it anywhere
It's up to you,
New York, New York...

New York, New York...

I want to wake up in a city
That never sleeps
And find I'm A-number-one,
Top of the heap,
King of the hill,
A-number-one...

These little town blues 
Oh they´'re melting away
I'm gonna make
A brand new start of it
In old New York
A-a-a-nd if I can make it there,
I'm gonna make it anywhere
It's up to you,
New York, New York...

New York...

FLY ME TO THE MOON

Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what life is like
On Jupiter and Mars...

In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby, kiss me

Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore...

In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you

[ instrumental ]

Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
Because you are all I long for,
All I worship and adore...

In other words, please be true
In other words
In other words
I ... I love... you

I have got you under my skin

I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart
That you're really a part of me.

I've got you under my skin
I'd tried so not to give in
I said to myself:
This affair never will go so well.

But why should I try to resist
When, baby, I know so well
I've got you under my skin?

I'd sacrifice anything
Come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of a warnin' voice
That comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear:

"Don't you know, little fool,
You never can win?
Use your mentality,
Wake up to reality."

But each time that I do
Just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin.

[ instrumental ]

I would sacrifice anything
Come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of the warnin' voice
That comes in the night
And repeats - how it yells in my ear:

"Don't you know, little fool,
You never can win?
Why not use your mentality,
Step up, wake up to reality?"

But each time I do
Just the thought of you
Makes me stop just before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin.
Yes, I've got you under my skin.

WITH OUT A SONG

Without a song, the day would never end
Without a song, the road would never have been
When things go wrong, a man ain't got a friend
Without a song

That field of corn, would never see a plow
That field of corn, would be deserted now
A man is born, but he's no good no how
Without a song

I've got my trouble and woe, but sure as I know
The Jordan will roll
I'll get along, as long as a song
Is strung in my soul

I'll never know, what makes the rain to fall
I'll never know, what makes the grass so tall
I only know, there ain't no love at all
Without a song
