What a beautiful song... I love how Sammy always says " slep:" when singing the word "slept". He sang it the same way when he sang " I dreamed a dream" on the Jerry Lewis Telethon in 1989. Magnificent performer. This is Violet once was Meowwie. Love your posts. Thank you so much. RIP Sammy <3
What an artist, Sammy could do so, so much. It helps that Mundell Lowe is the consummate pro who provides impeccably tasteful accompaniment.
Could anyone here imagine the superstars of today pulling this off? A good test for talent is to ask of an entertainer, "could they have appeared on a variety show like Carol Burnett?"
i dont normally listen to this kind of jam but i did one morning on labor day w/ a cup of coffee w/ my eyes closed, now i do it every year and try to honor this song its very beautiful to listen to

Did they release the same songs at the same time? That would have been interesting.

@Kumalingu Ella who, Fitzgerald? No, Id rather not. Im sure she's great in her own right, but it's Sammy I praise here. Let him not be minimized.

Sammy may have taken part of his style from Sinatra, but he could sing circles around "Old Blue Eyes" and he had a better personality.
