You know, that’s just trying too hard.
Try Sinatra’s version.
Yep, it’s the Wrecking Crew. Also have a listen to “Love Eyes”. Nancy did some good work, and by the way, her duet “Somethin’ Stupid” with her dad gave Frank his first #1 hit.
“Something Stupid” was a good song, the kind of song you don’t get out of your head back then, for me anyway.
Of course Sinatra could sing and his daughter wasn’t bad either.
Yeah, that’s the one. I like Western songs and that kind of is in that real.
I miss the days when we could turn on the car radio and hear songs like that.
Maybe you are thinking of Deana Carter’s Strawberry Wine:

“Yes, that and this...
Something Stupid (Frank Sinatra & Nancy Sinatra - with Lyrics)”
Yep, that was a good one.
Amen Sam, I do too.
If you have Netflix, you should watch Wrecking Crew. It’s about Tedesco and company (including Glenn Campbell) backing up everyone and his mother in 1960’s LA. Really good stuff.
I saw that.
It was really good.
I had no idea all that great music I loved was played by the SAME people!
She was married twice, first to pop singer and teen-age idol, Tommy Sands. They had two daughters.
After their divorce, she married the late Hugh Lambert, a Broadway/Hollywood dancer/choreographer.
She and her dad, Frank, entertained the troops in Viet Nam in '65 and '67.
Her two daughters were each left $1 million by their grandfather. Upon advice from her father, Nancy never sold off the rights to her own hits, including "These Boots were Made for Walkin'".....so, along with her inheritance from Frank, her radio show and other incomes, she's not hurting for money in her older years.

This isn’t the documentary itself, but rather an informed discussion about it...
THE WRECKING CREW - Documentary on West Coast Sound Studio Musicians

That’s Nancy with Spock ???
“The Wrecking Crew” was a nickname coined by drummer Hal Blaine for a collective of studio and session musicians that played anonymously on many records in Los Angeles, California during the 1960s. The crew backed dozens of popular singers, and were one of the most successful groups of studio musicians in music history.[1][2] They were occasionally featured on productions by Phil Spector under the name the Phil Spector Wall of Sound Orchestra.[3] Other names such as “the Clique” and “the First Call Gang” have been attributed to the band.
Two of their members, drummers Hal Blaine and Earl Palmer, were among the inaugural “sidemen” inductees to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2000, while the entire Wrecking Crew was inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame in 2007.[4][5][6] In 2008, they were the subject of the documentary of the same name.
