Was that comment really necessary?I think all of us knew he was gay,never got in the way of his artistry of being the singer eh was and still is.I would venture to say he has done more to help set the mood for the arrival of many of our children.You are the ass
who were playing the guitars? mathis made a booboo singing "i'll love you til the poets has lost its perfume" and repeated "i'll love you til the clover has lost its perfume"
Our mom took us to his concert at Pine Knob when I was a kid and she got the chance to hand him roses at the base of the stage she was so happy:). She was a wonderful women and mother I got to experiance art and culture through her and I met Marcel Marceau, who my sister Marcella was named after, and I was also privileged to see him on stage as well. I love you mom:)
This is one of the most beautiful songs, sung by a man with one of the most wonderful voices. This song has all ways been a favorite and now brings tears to my eyes when I think of my husband who passed on 14 years ago...the love of my life. This was how I felt about him.
Just listen to this song again for the first time in many years, my sister passed away when she was 3 months old and my mother sang this song to her everynight at the hospital, it has been 40 years and as soon as i heard this song again I cried !!
This is the song that says everything when you have lost the love of your lifetime. I will always love my "Mac" until the Twelfth of Never and that is a long, long time.
I remember playing this on my little red and white portable phonograph, around 1957......over and over again....Guess that gives my age away...I was in high school....
@memaseven I remember playing this song on YouTube on my crappy little laptop in 2011....over and over again....guess that gives my age away....I'm in high school....
I love how some things are simply timeless and ANYONE can appreciate them! thanks for sharing :D
I lost my beautiful mom in January of this year and after her death we found a note asking to have this played at her funeral as it was her and my fathers song.
We didnt know but she had left the cd ready for us so it was played.
I miss her every second of every day and wish i could hold her hand once more and tell her how much i love her.
I listen to this song and it brings a part of mom back to me and for that i am truely grateful
this was my mummy's favourite song when she was only 17, nearly 50 years ago. i love her millions and am so so proud of her. i really do have thee best mummy in the world.....................i know what it meant in the card now...........x x
My mother used to listen to Johnny when I was a little kid and I would complain all the time that he was for old people, but now I remember my Mom when I listen to him and I love him too- what a voice!
I saw him in concert one romantic night in 1964 (I'm not really that old...). It was at the Cherry Hill Inn, a dinner theatre in Jersey. We had a table very close to the stage, and since Johnny Mathis never, ever creeped me out, it was terrific.
I am remembering my first love from 1965 who dedicated this song to me and sang it to me often. I am happily married to a wonderful man who is the love of my life. I guess we always remember our first loves, and even thought we move on to live wonderful lives of our own, when we hear something from the past that reminds us of so long ago, we have to stop and smile.
Dedicated this song to an Irish girl from NY who stole and broke a young Marine's heart in the late 60s...still think about her...till the 12th of Never...
The little mistake with the poets wearing perfume shows that he is humen like us. Though I feel that he was sendt to us from heaven. He compensated it so beautifully in the end of the song with that special high Johnny-tone. His speciality.
Johnny and Gil, is perfect for eachother always. Berit.
We'll forgive the mistake because we're all human and therefore we all make mistakes but he made it beautifully and nobody can sound that good when making a mistake. You're the best Johnnie!
I'm an old guy of 66 now, but this song by the "wonderful, wonderful" JM, gives me the goose bumps of remembering my youth and the crushes I had and the kisses I stole from the girls in the fifties. There will never be a voice as beautiful ever again. What talent was placed in him by the almighty. He brought us so much joy. Long live Johnny Mathis, who BTW, was a champion high jumper in college.
I have never heard his voice for so many years, until today I register an account on YouTube then I can hear again Johnny Mathis' beautiful voice. His fantastic voice is uncomparable with others. This song remind me of the beautiful moment I ever had with my first lover but we never get married.
this wasmy moms song to my dad she played this a few dys before she died and lalid her head on his sholder and told him this is how much i love you, they were married 58 years
Eu como brasileira, acho que Misty é uma obra prima, eu queria até saber o que vcs achaão do nosso LUIS AIRão vcs. conhecem , poi´s é ele também é um homem de ouro, só é Um lindo..........
This is probably the best sound I ever heard in The twelfth of never, JM even gave us an extra bonus at the end. Of course you should have noticed the small mistake with the lyrics, but those are the things that make us (at least me) treasure videos like this.
Oh I could listen to him all day. I feel like being transported to fantasy land listening to his extraordinary voice. Can't thank you enough for posting beautiful videos of JM.
All I did is tell you it was here. I remembered your request for a good version of this song when you wrote me last week. I'm so happy you found it. It really is a wonderful video.
What a fantastic performance! The sound and quality of this video is amazing as is Johnnys voice. Thank you so much for posting my favorite song 19rebel57.
This is the loveliest rendition of this song ever, even by Johnny's high standards. He looks so good too! Thanks 19rebel57 for another beautiful video, that only you can post.
It's pure magic to watch and listen to Johnny Mathis sing. Singers could learn much, from watching how he uses the microphone, his diction, and ability to draw you in to the story of the song, so that you forget all else!
Thank you again, 19rebel57, this is just pure class. As you know, I just love this sound of Mr. Mathis' voice from the 80's. It was the time that I "re-discovered" him from my youth of the 60's. Thank you for always providing quality such as this.
Maria, this is such a thrill. Thank you so much. It's certainly a video I've never seen and will watch several times. Thank you for sharing more Mathis Magic.
This 45 rpm will be up for auction on Ebay in a few days.
