My "favorite" Sinatra song is
"The Way You Look Tonight" & that's mainly because I heard this song in a beer commercial (Michelob? Miller?) & they kept playing that commercial & I learned the lyrics to those few lines in the commercial. I decided to buy a Sinatra cassette, so I (finally) found the 1 that had that song on it.
He sings "Way You Look" in a key that's easy for me to sing, it's actually the same key I prefer to sing in..
I'll see you tonight..
in ALL MY DREAMS..

I have his Duets I & II albums and they’re both great, though I heard he never actually sang in the studio with any of the artists...

From Duets I, I like:

I’ve Got A Crush On You
Come Rain Or Come Shine
I’ve Got You Under My Skin

From Duets II:

Come Fly With Me
Luck Be A Lady

And other Sinatra songs:

Something Stupid
My Way
The Girl From Ipanema
The Lady Is A Tramp

I love putting on some Sinatra, turning it up loud, and singing along in a makeshift microphone – it’s thoroughly enjoyable.
