(by Frank Sinatra)

Fly me to the moon
Let me sing among those stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars

In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby kiss me

Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore





In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you

Maybe the best cover of this song I’ve ever heard tbh

IMO, one of the best auditions on this show. Too bad he couldn't follow it up when he made it into the top 12 or whatever it was. Bad song choices. Great smokey voice and notes right on.
