The Best Is Yet To Come
"The Best Is Yet to Come" is a 1959 song composed by Cy Coleman to lyrics by Carolyn Leigh. It is associated with Frank Sinatra, who recorded it on his 1964 album ''It Might as Well Be Swing'' accompanied by Count Basie under the direction of Quincy Jones. It was the last song Sinatra sang in public, on February 25, 1995, and the words "The Best is Yet to Come" were etched on Sinatra's original tombstone until it was replaced in 2020 (for reasons never officially explained by the Sinatra family) with a new stone that reads "Sleep Warm, Poppa". Although Sinatra made it popular, the song was written for and introduced by Tony Bennett. Before it was recorded by Sinatra, the song's debut was sung and played by Cy Coleman on Hugh Hefner's ''Playboy's Penthouse'' variety show.
