    I had to do the same!  The only one I could hear in my head before listening was U2's, and I hadn't heard that version since I was a freshman in college!

    I'm always forgetting good versions!  Bring up more if you can think of others.

    Double the title and you've got the winner:  Frank Sinatra.

    This one is pretty eclectic.  I had to go through and listen to all of these.

    Agree 100 percent.  Sinatra has so many great songs, in the right mood they can be just perfect

    A few years ago this would have been my first choice, except that it is called ‘New York, New York’, so it technically doesn’t fit.

    Also, he’s a real piece of shit.

    I left a lot of other options off of this poll.  I probably could have included more than a dozen.
