Music and memories and our loved ones, all tied up in our minds forever...thankfully, we can experience our emotions by hearing a special song...this is one of them...
I grew up listening to him an seeing him on the Andy Williams Show, Perry Como, etc. We just don't have great singers like this anymore. This is Streisand's favorite singer and it is obvious why. Listen to this voice. Natural with no strain.
In the 50's I used to sit on my porch with a 45 record player and had all J.M. records. This song wasn't out yet but it reminds me of the beautiful sound I listened to when i was young, I knew every word he sang during those years, ans still do 60 years later.No one is comparible. Too bad technology took away the pleasure of listening to original 45's memories.
I saw him in Cleveland, Ohio on April 1 st, 2011...The legend is 75 and still looks great and sounded great!! I had a front row seat too, I would know. I had a smile on my face throughout the entire concert...The happiest time of my life is seeing him sing in person.. What a thrill....God bless YOU JOHNNY MATHIS !!
This song makes me cry a lot. My grandmother unfortunately passed away on Valentines day '08 and she had left me a beautiful porcelain egg which has "My granddaughter, my joy" written on. It has a small flower inside when you open it and plays an instrumental version of this song. Thankyou for posting this.
Well done ReadMeReadYou!!!.........I have enjoyed listening to Johnny for over 50 years! I met him at the Paramount, in Seattle, about twenty years ago and he was so humble and appreciative of his fans.............he kissed me on the cheek! I plan to see him in Portland, Oregon on Valentine's Day in February, 2011.
@movienut6158 Thanks for sharing your story. It's very nice. And thank you for the kind words. How nice that you will be seeing him again this coming February.
i was brought up on jonny mathis he was my dads idol he has such a soothing voice i am now 53 years old and still a mathis fan no greater singer than the man himself
The photos you carefully picked =great video, plus Johnny's voice =pleasure! It's always a pleasure watching your videos and listening to JM's renditions of these great classics. Thanks again!
The first time I heard this was in 'Mrs. Henderson Presents'...absolutely beautiful..and of course, Johnny Mathis hits it out the ballpark with this rendition...of course what couldn't he do? A master..
Thank you thank you!!! misty eyed and happy we all are...thank you....such jewels you have...how about a song that starts with "stand up just a moment darling, let me carch my breath" or somewhere among those lines....thank you....
I was born in 52 and my mom used to listen to him...I grew up in a house full of music and theater...I adore Johnny Mathis...he is a beautiful singer...I've seen him in concert 5x's....
...I have a double cd of Mr Mathis in my car...I've never seen him in concert..."Budlynn", you wouldn't consider offering me a ticket for one of those 5x's, wouldn't you ?...
Beautiful song by the great singer. Thanks for sharing this wonderful video clip......."........someday my happy arms will hold you, and someday I'll know that this moment divine when all the things you are...ARE MINE..." Touching words of love.
That line really sets the song apart from other loves songs. I agree. And, when Johny sings it, it just takes it over the top. Thanks for coming by and commenting.
Exactly that's the line that turns this ordinary love song, into extraordinary. Add Johnny to it and you have total magic. Thanks, that line melts me. : )
Another great song sung with the original intro verse! The intros set the stories of the songs and are very important to understanding what the song is all about! Thanks for this great post by the very talented Johnny Mathis!
Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting. This song ties for me as a favorite. The other one is "Why Did I Choose You." Beautiful songs. Thank you for the kind words.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all. I'm taking a holiday break.
Check out Johnny's Christmas and Holiday videos on YouTube and also at his personal web site. That's what I'll be doing. I'm wishing you all love, health, peace and joy.
BEAUTIFUL!!!! THANK YOU!!!
