Frank Sinatra Relationships
 Watertown (1970) was one of Sinatra's most acclaimed concept albums, but was all but ignored by the public in commercial terms. Selling a mere 30,000 copies, and reaching a peak chart position of 101, its failure put an end to plans of a television special based on the album.
With Sinatra in mind, singer-songwriter Paul Anka wrote the song My Way inspired from the French Comme d'habitude (As Usual), composed by Claude Fran?ois and Jacques Revaux. My Way would, perhaps, become more identified with him than any other over his seven decades as a singer. In the U.K. My Way was an immense success, spending a record 124 weeks on the singles chart, whilst the album of the same name peaked at #2 during a 51-week stay. On Billboard, the album would peak at #11.
