Ol' Blue Eyes does it again
In 1968, Frank Sinatra recorded "My Way" and instantly had a new signature song. However, according to Sinatra's daughter Tina, he felt the song was "self-serving and self-indulgent" (via BBC's Hardtalk). Regardless, it remains one his most beloved songs around the world.

Gas stations sure don't look like they used to. While this one conveniently sits on the side of the road, it takes a team effort to fill up the tank.
