Who do you like, Bing Crosby or Frank Sinatra?

These two crooners of yesteryears were probably the singer's singer of their time. I learned that Frank idolized Bing as the latter got into the business earlier. Anyways, both are legends, but which one do you think has achieved far greater heights in their careers during their prime (or their lifetime)?

I like Frank Sinatra & love Dean Martin even better... :) I don't know Bing Crosby that well, so I surely can't tell... What are some famous songs sung by him?

He originally recorded Irving Berlin's composition "White Christmas" and it became the highest grossing single recording in music history until Elton John finally beat it with his single "Candle in the Wind" (a re-hashed version of his old song) intended as a tribute for Princess Diana. Another classic song by Bing is "True Love" (a duet with Grace Kelly), which also became a number one hit (from the movie High Society, which he incidentally co-starred with Frank Sinatra).

Oh! Gee! That's like trying to compare Milk and Dark chocolate, both are amazing, and both can't be compared to eachother. They were both wonderful! But I definitely love Frankie.

I agree. But I just wonder, which one could sing notes lower than the other (i.e., croon better than the other)? Heheh. How could they possibly reach those very very low notes?
