Come Dance with Me
Jimmy Van Heusen & Sammy Cahn • 1959
The title song for Sinatra’s 1959 Grammy Award-winning album of the same name, this invitation to the dance floor is one of Cahn and Van Heusen’s most purely joyful collaborations. The album won Album of the Year at the 1960 Grammys — the first time the award was given.
A perennial favorite with vocalists and big band leaders, the song has been recorded by artists from Diana Krall to Michael Bublé, its irresistible swing feel proving as fresh today as it was in 1959.
