This was a popular song for Frank Sinatra in the 1950's and 60's. I never understook the reference to Asbury Park as resembling "Granada". Is that the Granada in Spain? Is it architecture, night lights, view of the coast... what would make Frank think he is seeing the Real McCoy when he sees Asbury Park?

"At Long Last Love"
Writer(s): Cole Porter
Is it an earthquake or simply a shock?
Is it for all time or simply a lark?
Is it an earthquake, or simply a shock?
Is it for all time or simply a lark?
Is it the good turtle soup or merely the mock?
Is it a cocktail, this feeling of joy?
Or is what I feel the real McCoy?
Is it Granada I see or only Asbury Park?
Is it a fancy not worth thinking of?
Or is it at long last love?
Is it the good turtle soup, or is it merely the mock?
Is it a cocktail, this feeling of joy?
Or is what I feel the real McCoy?
Is it Granada I see or only Asbury Park?
Is it a fancy, not worth thinking of?
Or is it at long long long last love?
