>3. which well covered paul anka standard was later done the vicious way

Some trivia about 'My Way'

It is a French tune that a number of people have put English
words to.

Before Paul Anka put the words 'My Way' to the tune, another
English songwriter tried adding some english words and he
released it as a single.

Believe it or not it was David Bowie (although I think he was
David Jones at the time).

It is true, I have seen the 'video'
