When I was a teenager there used to be a Public Service Announcement on late-night radio with a bunch of kids singing this song in the background. A few months ago I had to find out what that song was. Turns out it was this song. It's quite cheerful!

Will always think of Mom who was a huge Frank fan but it rubbed off on me. We played Sinatra CDs at her viewing. His holiday album is timeless.

My Dad was a huge Sinatra fan too. One of his last birthdays, we all sang "That's Life." It does rub off on you. For years I puzzled over what this song was and now I realize my own father probably could have told me right away what it was.

with my brother who was crazy about it. "Oops there goes another rubber tree plant."
