A group of talented musicians used only their voices during their stunning performance of a 1950s classic.
Most enjoy getting away, escaping to a place where the temperatures and humidity require wearing shorts, tank tops, sandals and a copious amount of sunscreen. Who doesn’t enjoy a little vacation every now and then?
Frank Sinatra was a massive star, starring in hit motion pictures and turning out classic songs. Despite all the fame, Frank knew people liked to sneak off and avoid their often mundane, routine lives and grab a little rest and relaxation. His beloved song "Come Fly With Me” from 1958 is about escaping to warm, tropical lands.
Reigning Men, a barbershop chorus, performed the hit made famous by Ol’ Blue Eyes himself. The group of 10 young men put their vocal talents on full display as they sing the iconic song a cappella.
As the video’s description explains, their performance in the clip took place at the Barbershop Harmony Society’s 2023 Midwinter Convention in Florida.
While they all sound great, never missing a note in the process, some even mime along to the lyrics in Frank Sinatra’s hit. When they mention floating down to Peru, one of the young men acts as if he’s paddling down the river. Several of them even act as if they are playing the flute.
The group’s take on Frank Sinatra’s song is unique and enjoyable. You can easily decipher what they are performing and do not feel like they are destroying a classic. The young men are all skilled musicians, using their God-given musical ability to entertain the crowd.
At the end of their performance, the audience erupts in cheers and applause, letting the guys know how much they enjoyed their rendition of the Frank Sinatra song.
