The last line is the title of the song Frank Sinatra covered on his 1964 album It Might as Well Be Swing, accompanied by Count Basie. The music for this album was arranged by Quincy Jones, who had worked with Count Basie a year earlier on the album This Time by Basie which also included a version of Fly Me to the Moon.

The poem title is from Beethoven.
