100 Years of Frank Sinatra: "Same Old Saturday Night"
"Same Old Saturday Night" made its debut on Billboard on September 24, 1955. In the pre-Hot 100 days, it spent 5 weeks on the chart and peaked at #13.
Sinatra is accompanied by Nelson Riddle and his Orchestra. The song was written by Sammy Cahn ("Saturday Night is the Loneliest Night of the Week", "All the Way") and Frank Reardon.
'Movie show'? At the time, my life didn't even include a TV show.
