Its lyrics were written by Paul Anka and set to the music of the French song "Comme d'habitude" co-composed and co-written (with Jacques Revaux), and performed in 1967 by Claude François . Anka's English lyrics are unrelated to the original French song . The song was a success for a variety of performers including Sinatra, Elvis Presley, and Sid Vicious . Sinatra's version of "My Way" spent 75 weeks in the UK Top 40, a record which still stands . </P> <P> Paul Anka heard the original 1967 French pop song, Comme d'habitude (As Usual) performed by Claude François, while on holiday in the south of France . He flew to Paris to negotiate the rights to the song . In a 2007 interview, he said, "I thought it was a shitty record, but there was something in it ." He acquired adaptation, recording, and publishing rights for the mere nominal, but formal, consideration of one dollar, subject to the provision that the melody's composers would retain their original share of royalty rights with respect to whatever versions Anka or his designates created or produced . Some time later, Anka had a dinner in Florida with Frank Sinatra and "a couple of Mob guys" during which Sinatra said "I'm quitting the business . I'm sick of it; I'm getting the hell out ." </P>
