In his first dance as commander in chief, President-elect Trump will take the dance floor with Melania to the tune of Frank Sinatra's "My Way," according to a source with knowledge of the official inaugural balls.
The Washington Examiner has learned that Trump plans to take the floor as the 45th president at the Liberty Ball just as Nashville-based jazz singer Erin Boehme delivers opening song "Mack the Knife," which will be live broadcast for tens of millions of Americans to watch on TV.

Paul Anna wrote the song for Sinatra,and was going to sing it with a few lyric changes for DT at the inaugural,but he is in custody battle and begged off.
I’d have picked AC/DC’s “Big Balls”, myself.
Oops, Paul Anka.
Perfect! I am going to sing it graveside when my dad dies (may it be many years from now) ......gonna do it for that paisono fsther of mine...:)
“My Way” has got to be one of the most un-Chrisitan and self deceiving songs ever written.
It is basically Lucifer’s refrain from Isaiah 14.
Not much of a dance tune, Sal. Maybe ZZ Top’s I’m Bad, I’m Nationwide. Little tex-blues shuffle thing.
I did not ask you to dance.
:D
That’s if you believe that pop music is supposed to be a statement on the sacred, not the secular....which it isn’t.
Good answer. I have two left feet and tend to spill my beer a lot.
That is awesome. It is one of my favorite songs, sort of my theme song.
Donald Trump-”My Way”
LOL, this is GREAT theater!!
The lamestream media will go N-U-T-S!!
Self deceiving and unchristian?
LOL, gimmee a break! It is nothing of the sort. It is about a person being faithful to his beliefs and convictions.
Ya know the expressions, “be yourself”, “maintain the convictions of your belief”.?
Being proud of living your life as you wanted to if it brought no harm to others is no sin and no crime, social or otherwise.
I’m no Ginger Rogers, myself.
;D
Ah, “My Way”... probably the worst song Sinatra ever did. Don’t get me wrong, it sold very well but...
How about “Hit The Road Jack”!
Excuse me...we are discussing Frank Sinatra..Chairman of the Board...biggest gangster and crook of them all...had people beaten for dissing him...etc.
And if you are a Christian and think you are doing all of this “your way” then you will definitely have some serious discussions with the “Judge”.
And if you are not a Christian, then your beliefs and convictions have as much relevance as a person believing they can fly and stepping off a roof. They might be doing it their way, but gravity does not care.
...”He’s sending a message with a dance. I like it. He certainly did do it his way—and will keep doing it his way I imagine.”...
The best choice for his first dance. Trump is a Godsend to at least 60,000,000 people who are passionate about their choice and he, not being indebted to the swamp dwellers in Washington D.C., will, indeed, do it his way, and, the common people who are true Americans, will rejoice.
Music from Threepenny Opera? Seems a little gruesome.
Wish he had asked Joe Piscopo to sing it.
Something Stupid was the worst Sinatra song.
