Mack the Knife in honor of Frank Sinatra by Robbie B The Ole Crooner himself, Robbie B. pays tribute to Bobby Darin's version of Mack the Knife that (More) The Ole Crooner himself, Robbie B. pays tribute to Bobby Darin's version of Mack the Knife that reached number one on Billboard's Hot 100 and number six on the Black Singles chart. Dick Clark had advised Darin not to record the song because of the perception that, having come from an opera, it wouldn't appeal to the rock & roll audience. To this day, Clark recounts the story with good humor. Frank Sinatra, who recorded the song with Dean Martin, called Darin's the "definitive" version. On Radio 4's Desert Island Discs, pop mogul Simon Cowell named "Mack the Knife" the best song ever written. In 2003, the Darin version was ranked #251 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time list. Ella Fitzgerald made a famous live recording in 1960 (released on Ella in Berlin: Mack the Knife) in which, after forgetting the lyrics after the first verse, she successfully improvised new lyrics in a performance that earned her a Grammy. Robbie Williams also recorded the song on his 2001 album Swing When You're Winning. Other notable versions of "Mack the Knife" include performances by Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Tony Bennett, Marianne Faithfull, Nick Cave, Emma Pask and James Morrison, Brian Setzer, Westlife, Merrill Osmond, Kenny Garrett, Kevin Spacey and Michael Bublé.

English Lyrics: Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear And it shows them pearly white Just a jackknife has old MacHeath, babe And he keeps it ... ah ... out of sight. Ya know when that shark bites, with his teeth, babe Scarlet billows start to spread Fancy gloves, though, wears old MacHeath, babe So there's nevah, nevah a trace of red. Now on the sidewalk ... uuh, huh ... whoo ... sunny mornin' ... uuh, huh Lies a body just oozin' life ... eeek! And someone's sneakin' 'round the corner Could that someone be Mack the Knife? A-there's a tugboat ... huh, huh, huh ... down by the river don'tcha know Where a cement bag's just a'droopin' on down Oh, that cement is just, it's there for the weight, dear Five'll get ya ten old Macky's back in town. Now, d'ja hear 'bout Louie Miller? He disappeared, babe After drawin' out all his hard-earned cash And now MacHeath spends just like a sailor Could it be our boy's done somethin' rash? Now ... Jenny Diver ... ho, ho ... yeah ... Sukey Tawdry Ooh ... Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown Oh, the line forms on the right, babe Now that Macky's back in town. Aah ... I said Jenny Diver ... whoa ... Sukey Tawdry Look out to Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown Yes, that line forms on the right, babe Now that Macky's back in town ... Look out ... old Macky is back!!
