  • I love this movie.

    I'm trying to learn this song. I dont like alot of music, but clasical musical's are so great.

  • LOL got here from the same place as the top comment

  • Best part of the movie. He really was a cutie.

  • freddy is so hot!!! (btw his singing voice, bill shirley is also the voice of prince phillip in sleeping beauty)

  • Next Audition I have. I'm singing this.

  • why cant I find a man like this?

    I'd settle for the guy that wrote it...he's probably dead now.

    Romance died with him.

  • @alexis97871 You said it sister. Used to be an expression, "at the drop of a hat." Now it's all at the drop of knickers which seems to be after five seconds meeting. Disgraceful.

  • @Gullytale I know! Once upon a time a whole table of men would stand up just because a woman came to join them or got up to use the "powder room". Women were consider delicate, beautiful creatures who were to be loved, cherished and wooed with flowers. What do we get now? Booty calls.

  • @alexis97871 i was raised to stand up when a woman entered the room, and to assist them with their chair. Women are delicate, beautiful creatures who are to be loved, cherished and wooed with flowers. Just my opinion. Call me old fashioned.

  • @alldane1 Not, old fashioned, a well-mannered man. I was raised similarly. It’s the code of Chivalry and the proper way to court a lady. Sadly these things are lost in the horrible, decaying and corrupt pop culture of today’s world.

  • @alexis97871 he died in 1995, but he was the last surviving member of the My Fair Lady cast.

  • Love it!

  • Amazing where Sherlock Holmes started out !!!!!!

  • why dont men sing like this anymore :-(

  • Timeless ~ Thank You

  • Vic Damone sings this best imo!

  • my favorite love song of all time.

  • @mgibbvanuatu I wish you luck I am sure you will make your family proud.

  • one of my life goals is to go to the street where Richard Beymer lives and sing this song :) and then i want him to sing Why You So Obsessed With Me

  • I love this musical!

  • @sjpc33 lmao fair enough

  • im only 16, but when the time comes, i want a love that makes me feel as good as this song does:) <3

  • I like how the guys voice is so light and tenorish sounding. I am thinking about maybe going on AGT (Americas Got Talent) and using that song as a solo act.

    Also, fill in the blank...

    On 0:33, "...Than the moment when she shouted MOVE YOU BLOMMIN.....!"

  • what a lovely voice! does he remind anyone of Chrisitan Bale? lookswise?

  • My favourit musical of all-time. I thing I've seen it 100 times in my lifetime.

  • the guy who sings for freddy here played prince phillip in sleeping beauty! EPIC!

  • his name is Jeremy Brett. He starred in the sherlock holmes series. My father had the amazing pleasure 2 have dinner with this man. rest in peace jeremy brett

  • @kmcneely94 after i read this i had to go watch Sleeping Beauty lol you can totally hear it

  • @kmcneely94

    The man who did the singing for Freddy and the voice and singing voice for Prince Phillip was Bill Shirley.

  • I've been watching his performance as Sherlock Holmes, which just makes this so very squeeable.

  • I'm in love with this song...and Jeremy Brett. Simply beautiful, pure, and enchanting.

  • I'm about to sing this song For my theater and my only singing experiance is Epic rap battles of history......So I'm pretty pumped

  • Performing as Freddy for our local theatre company. base baritone singing down the octave. Hope I can do the character some justice. =)

    Very nice song to sing.

  • 6 people on the wrong street.

  • ...Did anyone end up here because of Sleeping Beauty? I promise I'm not asking for "thumbs up", but I'm just wondering. Anyone...anyone?

  • Historically my favorite Broadway song. Makes me wish I were a tenor. Gorgeous voice!

  • I wish I had a Freddy =P

  • oh sweet Jeremy @@...why did they have your singing voice dubbed? T_T

  • sucn a luvly scene!! :")

  • " And I never saw a more enchanting farce than the moment when she shouted ' Move Your Blooming _ _ _ _ ! ' " LOL

  • Why do we keep loving this song after years and years? I only know that it is pure. beautiful as Freddy.

  • 1:00

  • awww...sherlock is just the cutest...

  • 6 people couldn't find the street where she lives.

  • Anyone got here from 'The Theory of Narrative Causality'? =L

  • @Its0nMars I am, I am! *fandom high five*

  • @thoughtful Heheh! *high five* Apparently so are 16 others! XD Fandom is awesome! <3

  • @Its0nMars I did! I did! XD

  • @Its0nMars yes, actually :D

  • @Its0nMars But of course~

  • @Its0nMars At this point, we could probably start asking who didn't. ;P

  • @NaomiHansen64 Looking at your comment has made me see how many likes I've got for that comment! *jaw drops to floor* =P

  • Oh if only they made guys like this still. If they do, come find me!

  • I am inlove with a guy, and everytime i walk through his street í hum this one. One day he came out of his door, notecing me humming this and he started sining it aswell. :3

  • @MissLucySpring wow no one i know my age knows this song. i am 16 though

  • stunning simply stunning

  • I never once realized that Freddy was Jeremy Brett, one of my all-time favorite actors. I feel so stupid that I never tumbled to it. Now he is even that much more wonderful, and the show is that much more enchanting.

  • @Susanlucena "show"

    What?

  • so,. romantic

  • "I SAY, Holmes, what IS that you're doing?!"

    "WATSON!"

    "Well, I'll be a monkey's uncle--Sherlock Holmes, moonlighting as a swooning gentleman!"

    "Well, you see, Watson...er...that is..."

    "And you never serenaded me...or played your violin for me...ha...and--"

    "If you DARE make a joke about what I do with my pipe, Watson...!"

    RIP Jeremy Brett--THE GREATEST SHERLOCK HOLMES EVER! (And a great actor here, too...well, that's elementary, isn't it?) ;)

  • one of my favorite broadway songs! does anyone know where i can download this song btw?

  • i love this song!

  • how can these old songs be so perfect & wonderful & joyous?? why does no one write music like this anymore? so sad.

  • that's how it works - when a guy likes you and shows it he'll never have you but if he acts like an ass - that we like. What the hell is wrong with us?!

  • @natgowild If it makes you feel any better, Freddy and Eliza do get together in the play Pygmalion which My Fair Lady is based on.

  • 6 people don't live on that street

  • he really shouldn't have been dubbed, he had a wonderful voice.

  • This is my all time favorite song in a musical. So romantic. Perfect.

  • I sing this song after school in the empty hallways.

  • Hmmm...

    I wonder if WATSON knows his good pal Sherlock goes out singing on street corners like that... ;)

    The Great Performer of The Great Detective...JEREMY BRETT!

  • What is this sort of music called? 

  • @Tylar122 I call them " traditional Broadway show tunes" or just "Broadway show tunes", but there may be a more technical musical term for them.

  • @Tylar122 broadway / showtunes

  • And people dont sing like this anymore WHY?!?!?

  • @LYttleLotte17 I don't know. It's awfully sad.

  • I would choose Freddy over Henry Higgins ANY DAY!!!!!

  • @McKennahLane amen to that!!! i never understood her choice. *sigh*

  • Like? Are you kidding, I LOVE this song. I can't stop watching this, so romantic. I would marry the person who would sing this to me!!!! Love Audrey!!!!

  • Ah. Be still, my heart! Love music from this era. What a lovely voice.

  • Wow, Jeremy Brett was great in this role. Pity he is mostly remembered only for his Sherlock Holmes roles.

  • Ohhhhh Prince Phillip! Your voice! It's like heaven! LOL!

  • I played Freddy in my high school play! Best part ever! XD. THey played the song a little slower than this though. O.o

  • The character Freddy Eynsford-Hill was portrayed by the British actor Jeremy Brett. Although a singer in his own right, his singing voice for the film was dubbed by Bill Shirley, an American singer-actor.

  • i think every girl wishes a guy would fall that ridiculously in love with her.

  • @awesomeTai doubt it. :/

  • @awesomeTai AMEN to THAT!

    One time I was asked...Have you ever been treasured? Yes, in one relationship. And THIS would be the soundtrack of that brief but WONDERFUL affair.

  • @awesomeTai Or rather, a guy as handsome, sweet and charming as Freddy ;)

  • @awesomeTai Especially if that guy is Jeremy Brett.

  • @awesomeTai Amen. But he has to be a well dressed, talented, decent guy like him or else it's just annoying.

  • @awesomeTai Um, have you ever even seen this movie, cause you're wrong. Women want the love and devotion of a real man, not puppy love.

  • @laconic151 yes I've seen the movie hun, about a million times. I only meant that every girl wants to feel special. :P

  • @awesomeTai And to NOT be told to fetch the dude's slippers? =P

  • This song has been covered lord knows how many times. For me this still stands head and shoulders above them all.

  • @sodiumoxybate Actually, you could argue that this was a cover, since the original rendition of the song was in the original production of My Fair Lady on Broadway. Although I certainly like this version, I prefer the original rendition of the song, which you can hear on the original Broadway cast recording of My Fair Lady.

  • @ChicagoSouthDan The actor who played the part and sang the song in the original Broadway case was John Michael King.

  • @sodiumoxybate In complete agreement!

  • Oh Jeremy, why can't you be on the street where I live? After you sang a beautiful song to me, we could meet up with Doctor Watson. He and I would marvel as you solved a case.

  • I want to be on the street where he lives!

  • This song gives me shivers down my spine <3

  • Am I the only one who thinks this actor is just about one of the most attractive men who ever walked the planet? I mean seriously.... he's right up there with Tyrone Power and Errol Flynn. The most beautiful face and voice I've ever seen. I especially loved his role as Nicholas in "War and Peace."

  • @twiwonder I agree, he is incredibly attractive. I hope he feels that way about the street where I live!!! ;)

  • @Iamonad Yeah! Someone agrees!

    And me, too. :) haha

  • @twiwonder

    If you like him so much, perhaps you would enjoy his role as Sherlock Holmes in the 1984 tv series. I think he did an outstanding job; in fact, he was perhaps the best of all those who have played Holmes.

  • @Chikin1ninjas Holy crap....are you kidding?! I didn't even know that. haha. Now I know what to watch this weekend.

    Thank you, dear. :)

  • I had no idea this was the "Sherlock Holmes" Jeremy Brett! I've watched this movie a hundred times but just now recognized him. He was such a grumpy Sherlock! LOL! But I love him in this role and especially in this song.

  • @riggs20 Jeremy Brett had a great singing voice, but for some reason they dubbed in another singer on this song. I velieve it was Bill Shirley, the tenor who sang as the Prince's voice in the Disney Sleeping Beauty.

  • @beentheredonethatb4 - Oh, you're kidding! It was bad enough when I learned they dubbed Audrey Hepburn's voice. Oh, well.

  • @riggs20 Jeremy Brett had a great singing voice, but for some reason they dubbed in another singer on this song. I believe it was Bill Shirley, the tenor who sang as the Prince's voice in the Disney Sleeping Beauty.

  • I never saw a more enchanting farce, then the moment when she said move your blooming (arse)!! LOL!! I love his voice!! It's so manly and loving!! <3 I love this song! Guys, make note of this! If you want to win a girl- sing this to them! Guaranteed success!! ;p

  • @EmeraldArtemisia You know... you bring up a point. WHY do men NOT understand that being serenaded...or taken in their arms and danced around the floor does SO much to win a girl's heart??

    Man oh man...... men should study these musicals - for LIFE lessons.

  • @McKennahLane Madam, I am a man who has taken more than a few life lessons from musicals. :) Seriously, life lessons can be learned from any musical.

  • Awww... this is so cute! True romance existed when this movie was made here people!

  • They could have done such schmaltzy camera work with this song . . . but I'm so glad they didn't! All we need is the one deep, continuous shot of Jeremy. Simple and natural and so much more lovely. Just like this song. :)

  • They don't write songs like that anymore, the romance in it gives you goosebumps. And Jeremy is awesome. That was indeed an era of great artists and creativity.

    Thanks.

  • I showed this song to my friend a few days ago, and now I've lent her the DVD and keep encouraging her to watch it. Having just celebrated her twenty-fifth birthday she is seven years my senior, and I wish she was my big sister, but musically I'm old enough to be her grandma!

  • She should've dumped that old misogynistic bastard 'enry 'iggins and gone off with Freddy. TRUFAX.

  • @clyhiz She does in the original stage play by Shaw. Doesn't turn out so good, apparently.

  • Alan J. Lerner had a crush on a classmate of his when in high school. He would wait after school outside what he thought was her house. It turned out to be the wrong house and even on wrong street. He thought, if he only knew the street where she lived.

  • @Ratzmine I never knew that story.

    Ah... the hours I spent on the street of a school-aged crush. Not only of mine - but supporting a best friend when SHE

    would want to ride bikes over to the a crush's street. Just to be ON the street.

    years later... you STILL feel lighter as you turn on to the street where your love lives.

  • wow....

  • Just beautiful! I love his voice!! ^^ So powerful, such a wonderful song!

  • I was really impressed when I first heard this song in cinema. Simply awesome :)

  • I don't think I'd mind having Jeremy Brett as my stalker singing nearby.

  • i wonder if the real audio exists and if they will replace it for a dvd someday

  • its so anoying that they dubed him even though he can sing amazingly!

  • goosebumps.

    just magic(: x

  • fav part at 2:18 - 2:45. those notes are just so pure its ridiculous. esp the "let the time go by, I won't care if I" wow. just wow.

  • Peter Jeremy William Huggins once said of his roll as Sherlock Holmes...

    "Holmes is the hardest part I have ever played - harder than Hamlet or Macbeth. Holmes has become the dark side of the moon for me. He is moody and solitary and underneath I am really sociable and gregarious. It has all got too dangerous"

    ~ How lovely to see him smiling in this film!!! However he did play Holmes to a fine fare thee well and I had to watch each and every episode, now being shown on P.B.S_. R.I.P. Jeremy !

  • This man who played Freddie, Jeremy Brett came from a family of great wealth. Born into the Cadbury Chocolate Family, his very own Father was S0oo ashamed that his son wanted to be an actor that he Demanded Jeremy change his name to save the family (what a load of crap) Honor. For some unknown reason, Jeremy did NOT sing in this movie even though he excelled at singing while in college. Born in 1933, he died in 1995 at 61.& I for one, will not be buying their chocolates!!

  • I love this song so much! It's one of my favorite parts of this movie

    It's weird to think this actor played Sherlock Holmes as well haha

  • If there's one song which always puts a smile on my face its this. Such a lovely chorus

  • :-J

  • I absolutely love this film and this is one of my favourite songs!

  • I love this song so much...so beautiful and it makes me happy. Haha he's like a stalker but he makes it seem less creepy

  • I'm so dissapointed that someone had to dub Jeremy's voice. The man is brilliant and he had a sezy voice.

    Question. I heard that the lines:-

    "When she mentioned how her aunt...

    ...move your bloomin'-"

    Is actually sung by Jeremy. That is why the voice sounds so different then later. Is it true? Does anyone have a sure answer?

  • She does in the original

  • Did Jeremy Brett do his own singing?

    If not, who dubbed his voice.

    I ask because I understand Marni Nixon dubbed Audrey Hepburn's singing voice.

  • Yes, he's dubbed. It's bullshit to, because he has a very deep sexy voice. Type in Jeremy Brett and Twiggy and you'll see what his actual voice sounds like.

  • Dear McCoyFan,

    I listened to the clip of Brett and Twiggy singing that you recommended.

    Brett sounded pretty good.

    I wonder why the movie producers chose not to use his own voice?

  • Bill Shirley, he dubbed Jeremy's wonderful singing voice.

    That chap who voiced Prince Philip in Disney's Sleeping Beauty.

    Jeremy's real singing voice is lower than this voice in this video.

    & you can notice it in the other video with the title: Jeremy Brett & Twiggy.

  • Dear hugh0221,

    Thanks. It's good to know the real story.

    According to Wikipeidia:

    Singing in the Rain revolves around the idea that Kathy must dub Lina's talking voice, but Jean Hagen actually did her own talking. And when Kathy is supposedly dubbing Lina during the live performance of "Singing in the Rain" at the end of the film, Jean Hagen is actually dubbing Reynolds' speaking voice.

    Do you know anything about that?

  • @thechinadesk

    Oh, the irony!

  • Bill Shirley dubbed jeremy's voice

  • Maravillosa y bonita canción. Qué gran película ha sido y será por siempre "My fair lady", una de mis favoritas, desde luego.

    Saludos desde España.

  • @AlfTorGa Saludos desde Chicago. Placido Domingo canta "My Fair Lady" en el Espanol en youtube. Mi Espanol no es bueno.

  • @ChicagoSouthDan Thank You very much!

  • @AlfTorGa Placido's "My Fair Lady" esta en el lado derecho.

  • I like this poor guy more than Harrison's role in the movie. Unlike the hypocritical "gentleman", his love adoration pours out without defence but integrity.

  • anyone know the name of this actor?

  • His name is Jeremy Brett ^^ !! <3 love him when he plays Sherlock Holmes too !

  • OMG it's him?

    Granada's Sherlock Holmes?

    Yes it's him......unbelievable.

    \(◎o◎)/!

  • this song always makes me feel like I'm in love. It's one of my favorite songs from My Fair Lady.

  • This is one of my favorite parts of the film! I wish someone would sing this for me.

  • Bless you Jeremy; what joy you brought to so-many of us with this role.

    Thankyou for your wonderful career: rest in peace J.B.

  • @14all41 Bill Shirley was his singing voice.

  • "All at once am I

    several stories high

    knowing I'm on the street where you live" ---- GENIUS !

    "Does enchantment pour

    out of every door?

    No, it's just on the street where you live" ---- CLASSIC !

    "Oh, the towering feeling

    just to know somehow you are near...

    The overpowering feeling

    that any second you may suddenly appear" ---- MAGIC !

  • bellissimo video.

  • Marvelous. A timeless classic!

  • i always chant this song to myself whenever i have to tread any considerble length of pavement by foot. it keeps my steps, and my spirit, in the right place.

  • Just Amazing. Gooebumps ;)

  • Lerner and Lowe always awesome. My two fave musicals are Camelot and My Fair Lady.

  • That's Jeremy Brett who played Sherlock Holmes on TV.

  • My favorite song from any movie.

  • What an awesome production this was.

  • Absolutly Wonderful
