TMZ reported that “the song for Donald Trump’s first dance as President of the United States will be to ‘My Way.’”
The song, originally sung by Frank Sinatra, will be performed by Erin Boheme, Nickie Conley and Jason Eskridge. The trio is from Nashville, Tennessee.
Paul Anka is the original writer of the song, and was asked to perform the melody over Inaugural weekend, TMZ reported. However, he “had to back out because of a custody trial and medical issues.
Anka changed the lyrics and personalized the song for Trump years ago. However, it is believed that the version of “My Way” for the first Inaugural dance will be the original.
Twitter users are talking about the song’s lyrics, especially the first line which reads, “And now, the end is near:”
Trump’s first dance at Inaugural Ball will be to Frank Sinatra song “My Way”. Ironic since the first line is “And now, the end is near”. pic.twitter.com/EKXjugqcmK
