- Frank Sinatra — like Connie Francis an American singer of Italian descent — recorded "Forget Domani" in a May 6 1965 session at United Western Recorders in Hollywood produced by Jimmy Bowen and arranged by Ernie Freeman; the orchestra was conducted by Donnie Lanier.[2] Sinatra cut the song a week before the US premiere of The Yellow Rolls-Royce which occurred May 13 1965. Both Connie Francis' and Frank Sinatra's "Forget Domani" singles debuted on the Hot 100 in Billboard dated June 26 1965 at respectively #95 (Francis) and #100 (Sinatra), and over the next six weeks both singles made slight roughly equal chart ascents to peak on the Hot 100 dated July 31 1965 at respectively #78 (Sinatra) and #79 (Francis): both singles charted for one subsequent week for a total Hot 100 run of seven weeks. Billboard's Easy Listening chart afforded the Connie Francis and Frank Sinatra "Forget Domani" singles respective peaks of #16 and #13. In July 1965 Sinatra's version became the fourth non-charting "Forget Domani" single released in the UK.
