Sinatra later featured "All My Tomorrows" on his 1961 album All the Way. Sinatra re-recorded it for his 1969 album My Way, in a new arrangement which writer Charles L. Granata considered superior to the original, and which Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic called "lush and aching". Rolling Stone described the song as "the poignant monologue of a man determined to turn his life around". This version also contains a melody from Sinatra's 1966 hit "Strangers In The Night."
