"Unforgetable" and YES I do like the "Duet" from the 80's that Natalie did with him :)

I was tossed between two. But I voted for When I Fall in Love followed by The Christmas Song. I do know that Mel Torme wrote it but he just didn't sing is as well as Nat did. I also thought that is was very special of Natalie to do that duet with her dad even though he was no longer around. Anyone else I would have thought it was so stupid. But it was her way of honoring her dad which I thought was wonderful.

I'll select "Unforgettable"; I kinda like the '91 revival of it by his daughter Natalie (which featured dubbed in vocals from his original recording).

I liked the video for the 'duet' of Unforgettable.....a great video, also really neat from a techie standpoint....I'm gonna Google search it and try and find out exactly how it was pulled off. A great song nonetheless. And one of the first Nat songs I remember hearing.

I'm afraid my choice isnot on the list yet it is a good song called 'Quando-Quando-Quando.' My parents introduced me a compact cassette in '76 they said NKC is one of their favourite Singers. And when I listen to this song in his latin album I started to realize why they liked NKC.

I haven't heard "You're My Everything", but I chose other: "I Love You (For Sentimental Reasons)".

Other songs to come close IMO are:
Mona Lisa
Too Young
Autumn Leaves
L-O-V-E

Honourable mentions go to Smile and Rambling Rose.
