Frank Sinatra is one of the performers whose songs never go out of style. Father Matt Clayton and son Archie are well aware of this, as evidenced by the success of their music video for “Me and My Shadow.” Co-written by Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr., this upbeat tune would make a lovely duet for Matt and Archie.

Matt impersonates Frank Sinatra with a convincing, smooth, and charming style of singing, reminiscent of Ol’ Blue Eyes. However, young Archie does a fantastic job with Davis’s portions. A cute video of a father and kid performing a duet went viral online, demonstrating how much fun they are having.

Matt and Archie’s cover became a YouTube phenomenon with 2.3 million views. It may surprise you to learn that the Claytons’ rendition of “Me and My Shadow” ends up being more well-liked on YouTube than the original recording. Online viewers were delighted by the pair’s singing skills as well as the heartwarming moment of family unity.

“This is amazing,” said one of the viewers’ remarks. How many kids can actually sing along to any Frank Sinatra song? Take it on! Someone asked if anyone had witnessed the young person harmonizing the final few phrases. Can you imagine how difficult it is for a child at that age to hear and play the harmony line? His calling is singing! You can find a great YouTube video of Davis and Sinatra singing “Me and My Shadow” live here.

The jazz standard “Me and My Shadow” made its debut on record in 1927. Dave Dreyer wrote the music for the song, while Billy Rose wrote the lyrics. Numerous musicians recorded the song in 1927; Whispering Jack Smith, Johnny Marvin, and Nat Shilkret were among the most well-known performers to do so.
