And who did he sing it with? (it was a duet, remember).

PS When I was a small girl, my Uncle used to take us on the train to New York and we would get off the train in Hoboken and take a coach across the Hudson to Manahttan.

Yep, you're right, James.  I stand corrected.  But it was his daughter Nancy that he sang it with, not his wife.

I've not been to NY in over 25 years.  (New York that is, not North Yorkshire.  Was in N. Yorkshire 3 years ago and loved every minute of it.)

Who sang "Unforgettable?"

Give the little lady a silver dollar.

The father-daughter Sinatra question made me think of it.  Natalie Cole covered the song, back in the 80s I think, as a duet with her late father, singing along with his recorded voice.  It's a beautiful song.

Who sang Shine On, You Crazy Diamond?

His eyes are unforgettable, Ron. 

I thought you'd know the answer to my song, even though the people who did the song are from that "other" college town.
