Sarah Vaughan - The Sassy One

[africanbella28]

I like this song i didn't know that her voice was so amazing and she was pretty

[sdegrace]

An example for all singers.

[NicolaWriter]

49 dislikes?

Let us pray for their souls. Ah,the DIVINE Ms.Sarah! Nothing better and the drummer is hilarious.

[javayah123z]

Pretty lady extravagant voice

[rankingtrevor]

This drummers name was Micheal Hancock, he worked with Perry Nelson, Count Basie and other minor band leaders in the late swing era. Famously he recanted this broadcast and was supposedly not happy about the outfit he was forced to wear.

[sweetmay73]

I figured XD

[brittishcoal]

I literally just got goosebumps...

[MrJasilva33]

¡Jájájájájája´já! ¡Qué poca onda el batero!

[Chacha1tube]

Divine!



[lhenle55]

Haha...drummer man could try harder to look like he's enjoying this lol

[blackfoot71]

The drummer needs a thought bubble over his head that says "I wish a mother F-er would. . ."

[Dancers22406]

Why aren't there singers like this now adays?

[Alexdurrant7]

@Dancers22406 Because music has entered a new era... it's like asking why there weren't singers 50 years ago like there are today.

[TheRealnigga1ify]

@Alexdurrant7 your right we have entered a new era a era of untalented singers we only have a select few that moves you like fantasia, jennifer hudson, ledisi, jill scott, erykah badu, lalah hathoway, rachelle ferrell, agebra bennet, anthony hamilton, kem, music soulchild, eric benett. adele, jessie j, mary j blige, cee lo green, malanie fiona, chrisette michele and jazmin sullivan.

[Alexdurrant7]

@TheRealnigga1ify That's an awful lot of notable artists living and working in the exact same era... I doubt that there has been another era with so many notable singers. A lot of it is just generational snobbery, I think, though.

[wattever333]

the drummer doesn't look happy to be wearing that shirt.

[MrFalconford]

its a place

[luyanoH]

in taking a jazz class in my collegue and i wonder why how the so called shit that we called hip hop evolved from this ><

[TheKadamungus]

What is the name of the song? :)

[umbrellashotgunman]

Drummer: Well, at least it's not like this will ever be broadcasted again, right?

50 years later: FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUU-

[acx01bc]

the song's name is "perdido"

[olie171]

AMAZING!!So entertaining!Jazz singers these days are full of BS!They think they're good but they don't even come close to her knee!

[TheVideostunad]

SUPERB! Sal

[90Artemis]

This reminds me of Fallout

[mbradley111]

this is awesome! and the only reason i commented or liked was because you prompted me to mid-vid

[ewhitebrit]

Sara is a classy lady and beautiful singer. She is one of the great jazz singers. I love her melody and sound.

[Silverwlf50]

Dude on the drums looks like he's having a ball :)

[iLove8Music]

Dummer muat be embarrased because of his shirt

[Belecena]

the drummer looks like he's going to commit suicide...

[JazzVideoGuy]

@Belecena Maybe he's just constipated.

[gbalah162]

@JazzVideoGuy or maybe its the crappy costume they made him wear, lmao, it is too silly

[holstgustaf]

@Belecena maybe it's because of that sweater they made him wear

[Lsimm91602]

@Belecena Look what he is wearing....he ain't happy bout that



[AlphaSun31]

@Belecena I know he is looking like damn I don't want to be hear.

[PorroFirst]

@Belecena Would the shirt have anything to do with it? Looks like the shirt from that Seinfeld episode.

[AllBobsAllTheTime]

@Belecena Yeah - he's pretty sorry-looking.

[sunofabishop]

Wow! My first time to your channel; this footage is priceless and I will be spending a lot of time on your channel from now on... Thank You!

[JazzVideoGuy]

@sunofabishop Welcome. Look forward to your comments.

[Lampodikt]

Music ain´t done this way no more... Sad.

[speakeasynyc]

On the top of the comment section are two people who had never heard Sarah Vaughn until finding this video. Now intellectually I understand that easily. Emotionally, it is almost a crime. That is why thanks goes to this site and youtube for allowing these discoveries. Imagine how nice it is to know on one day you turned (at least) two people on to Sarah Vaughn. That alone makes a Great day.

[dirths]

So cute at 1:00

[LuigiKwok]

Amy didn't bring me here but i'm glad Amy is influencing the younger generation to appreciate Jazz music. I wish she was still around.

[XsomeonexsmashingX]

Beautiful...(:

[urka170]

OMG this is the first time I listen sarah. AMAZING

[JazzVideoGuy]

@urka170 Welcome! Please check out Billie Holiday, Betty Carter and Carmen McCrae.

[JazzVideoGuy]

@JazzVideoGuy and Ella Fitzgerald, the great Irish singer

[sageface08]

@urka170 Yeah my first time listening to sarah too. In fact it's the first time I've ever seen Sarah.

[JazzVideoGuy]

@sageface08 Welcome aboard.

[atrofeed]

Amy Winehouse brought me here :)

[hippiehighpriestess]

Now I see why Ms. Winehouse loved Sarah Vaughn so much. Beautiful voice!

[Paris16273212]

omg, funny mic XD nicee song :D

[wandahost]

I just love the way this song can cheer you up so easy...can you stop mention the silly drumer and enjoy the song

[JazzVideoGuy]

@wandahost Thank you. It's about Sassy and the way she sings.

[URTchanteuse]

[TheBeautyFairy]

[JazzVideoGuy]

@TheBeautyFairy This was way before any kind of electronic voice enhancement. Just her pure voice here.

[TheBeautyFairy]

@JazzVideoGuy

Exactly.

[Mrsfaery79]

[aaliyahalexsia9910]

@Mrsfaery79 its vaughan i hate when people spell our last name like that

[FIERCanlicious]

She has such a fantastic talent in singing, listen and see her melisma.. how she squeeze many notes in such a short amount of time at 1:20-1:22

[BloodyCatastrophee]

@FIERCanlicious i can do it! =) That's one of my favourite parts of the whole song! =)

[FIERCanlicious]

@BloodyCatastrophee wow!! It takes so long to learn for me. I'm still practicing :)

[Kaooskt]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

[paulostroff99]

Sassy rules. TY JVG for posting..

[picklefingersyea]

0:53 i would be making that face too if i had to wear that shirt

[2bluetrue2]

What's the name of this song???

[pivotandsway]

@2bluetrue2 I think it's called "Perdido"

[rudejoni]

she was liked by Amy Winehouse ... no reason, just throwing it out there

[period181]

What a great voice I love this song, I once dated a girl from Southend-on-sea who swore blind her name was Sarah Vorgon lol, what a walter mitty she was I finally dumped her after she stated she had raced against Kelly Holmes and WON!!!

[paulostroff99]

@period181 -She did. I was there to witness it. lol

[Hekaman]

LOL. He was mad about that shirt.

[txikilin]

The drummer was perdido.

[coquinhavd]

Oh, yeah!

The drummer!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[racourdav]

The drummer can't believe he had to wear that shirt...hideous!

[hrvperc]

@racourdav hahahahha

[dirths]

@racourdav Although, I myself, would never wear that shirt, it just simply goes with the era and this performance. It is not hideous, it is just the right style for this set up. I know, you are just being funny, partly, and partly, you are.

[kieljtatum]

OMGod, the drummer has a touch of the Downs!

[ronnkan4]

First time hearing sara vaughn...wow. No one has that type of voice anymore. Chrisette Michelle.

[boobymaster]

Drummer is sad because Amy is gone

[patriciacarrasco]

wow i love her name and voice, beautiful

[emogaara1231]

Wow she looks like My girlfriend's mother :)

My god this is weird. Sarah Vaughan has been one of

my favorites for years :3

thank you.

[Ozewiezewozeful]

It looks like she's signing in an electric toothbrush :-)

[MrJasilva33]

¡Sarah es un canto a la alegría! Ahora, el batero...¡Jájájájájájájájá! ¡Que poca onda, por Diós! ¡Jájájájájájájájájájá!

[reneecalling]

Miss you Sarah!

[jerramy]

If you close your eyes and listen, she has a smile and a laugh in her voice, which people dont have nowdays because they seem to think that either complaining or being angry in music is going to get us anywhere good.

[HOMEnHIGH]

1:30....."look at this stupid assed shirt these honkeys got me wearin maan..caught a pimp off guard with this shit"..

[BlueNeko1]

Sassy had the most beautiful voice! I have a two disc collection of hers and I listen to it on the nights when I can't sleep. So soothing.

[supaflynfuchsia]

The drummer doesn't look too happy about the shirt they put on him..

[paulostroff99]

TY JVG for posting

[CBSEye]

The Divine One, beyond compare!

[alicektn]

[TheGarbageQuiltGirl]

[AliShim123]

[Expiredpop]

[MicRichy1]

@Expiredpop I don't know where this particular recording of 'Perdido' can be had - I'd like to know, too! The OP, JazzVideoGuy needs to throw us a bone :) She has other Perdido recordings that were released on record but I like this one best

[blanknalblanknalb]

A Natural!!

[raquel4167]

SHE'S A DIVA !!!!

[Jazzi8604]

I LOVE the notes at 1:20... Awesome!!! <3

[kevingunn]

I love this song; however, I think if the American Heritage Dictionary had a picture next to its definition of "Angry Black Man" it would be the drummer in this video.

[YansenDortman]

She looks so beautiful here just stunning

[Lampodikt]

What a range! And she makes me happy, her smile guys :-)

[michaelhu123]

I love her voice. Its so beautiful and well controlled!

[sannehuijbregts]

[renatobarone]

[nachjagger33]

@alonsaidaz..... estos son los nuevos tiempos... donde el poder absoluto de los putos gringos...ahora dominan todo: internet, el cable, los informativos... todo.... debemos desde ahora hecerles la guerra con todos los medios de lucha.... desde Chile un saludo.

[annaisjesus]

Fuck she's so awesome. I LOVE YOU SARAHHHHH

[terdilynn91]

she is fantastic

[SWILLIS94042]

i love her teeth....



[Whinnie1]

41 People are definetely Perdido. How can you not appreciate the vocals

[LoHeHaPoMaandPr]

...omg...0:53 he loooks PIIISSSSED as hell!..lol! his eyes are saying "I only agreed to do this shit for one night, this is now the 8th night in a F*cking god damn row! WTF!"

[eelaws]

@LoHeHaPoMaandPr

He's probably pissed because they made him wear that silly looking ruffled shirt.

[tlife35]

@LoHeHaPoMaandPr LMBO!!!! you are so right! lol

[EVER4MJ]

@LoHeHaPoMaandPr lol i was wondering why he was looking so listless a drummer



[MsMusicLuver1800]

@LoHeHaPoMaandPr  LOL!

[BloodyCatastrophee]

@LoHeHaPoMaandPr HAHAHAHA! =DDDDDDDDD

[icantgetitup]

spat out water on keyboard when i saw that drummer

[DINOLOVER6717]

@icantgetitup Kool-aid for me dude...i saw the comment above and was expecting a grinning like crazy guy but man! Tricked ya lol

[bolder2009]

This is the most fun performance of this classic tune!

[mrgjjus]

It's hard to believe that in the mid-fifties you could turn on the tv and see this live in your living room. Sarah is dead-on here, beautiful to watch and listen to. No fuss or tech tricks needed to knock you out. Glad this was recorded, many shows back then weren't.

[claffey101]

I am literally addicted to this song - a truly spectacular voice, excellent arrangement, and her performance is so sweet, the tone is perfect... AND comedy bored/embarrassed drummer! What more could one want?? !41 "dislikes"??!!!!! There are 41 lunatics on the loose, clearly..

[rehabworker]

My dad loved her so much he gave me her nick name I have been Sassy for 40 years! Thanks Sarah for my name !

[thessalonica1]

so figo!

[mkworkman]

2:25 video: Sarah Vaughan [The Sassy One].

March 27, 1924: birth of Sarah Vaughan, American singer (d. 1990).

[mariaperiwinkle]

Does anyone know where I can find the lyrics to this tune? I would love to cover it. May I add, this performance is fantastic.

[ColemanJon]

@mariaperiwinkle Google

[loveisbeautiful2]

that drummer looking like, ''they aint paying me then im gone to look like it' lol'

[sassysizzle]

@loveisbeautiful2 ... First I read your comment then viewed the drummer and laughed... ha ha ha... That was funny!

[MicRichy1]

I only just started gettin into Sarah as well (past 6 mos. or so) and now I'm totally addicted !!!! She *was* the Divine One, period. Speaking of which, if you guys want to hear Sarah at her most incredible, wild, extended (7 mins +) scatting BEST, check out the CD "Live and S' Wonderful" . The last track is 'Sometimes I'm Happy' and it will B-L-O-W Y-O-U-R M-I-N-D !!!! Crappy bootleg recording off the sound board (it sounds like) but better than any other version of that song she ever did !!

[MrJaybizzo]

i just recently started in go into the sarah vaughn .. josephine baker archives and these were gifted talented women who had grace and style that todays artist ( with the exception of a handful ) can only dream about .. the self respect as woman that they display alone is refreshing .. i dont think the music can ever be what it was because as we all know its all about the young in every generation or musical explosion .. but as we grow older we understand that life is all about memories

[kattaplay]

of only every one had a smile on their face like the drummer the world would be a happier place !

[thankallahalltime]

thenoblequran (Ctrl+Enter)

[Blackjesus3]

the dummers mad he cant get with my girl Sarah :D 

[bubbabeebis]

@Blackjesus3 OMG you killed me with that comment... I can't stop laughing now hahahahahaha

[hrvperc]

pure ecstasy!!!

[HR5308]

The drummer looks like a beaten dog!

[TheSoundsage]

@HR5308 He was acting as a sort of voltage regulator- otherwise Sarah would have blown all the fuses in the house.

[MrJasilva33]

El baterista.....¡jájájájá! ¡Qué cara de embole!

Ella....¡Magnífica!

[Mizzshia1]

the drummer looks so happy to be there...I wonder what the story is behind his expression...

[maisqpoesia9999lcg]

Brilliant!!!

[marchelluh]

She was gorgeous!

[MicRichy1]

@marchelluh She sure was !!!! man

[MrJasilva33]

Nunca me cansaré de ver esta maravilla. ¡Y de reirme! ¡Es fantástico el contraste entre la gracia y alegría de Sassy y la cara de embole del baterista! ¡Jájájájá!

i do kind of look like her, well our smiles are similiar lol
