Frank Sinatra – I Love My Wife

Notable Music — Wed, 09 May 2012 17:00:21 +0000

My mind at times

May dwell on sex

If someone's rating dreams

Then most of mine I guess are double X

Recorded in 1977, “I Love My Wife” became an instant Frank Sinatra classic and was adored by married women all over. With a track record that included “Witchcraft” (1957) and “The Best Is Yet To Come” (1964), Sinatra knew he could count on his pal Cy Coleman to provide him with signature songs.

I Love My Wife is also the title of the hilarious hit Broadway musical about two married couples contemplating a carnal adventure during the sexual revolution of the 1970s; lyrics by Michael Stewart and music by Cy Coleman.
