[ginahams2010]

This was the first 45 that I bought. Ella taught me to sing.... Bless her.....

[MrSnookerman147]

This is a beautiful song, and no one could sing it better, I love it ! !

[BillDFC]

Best singing voice EVER!

[Sparfregundo]

Thumbs up if V for Vendetta brough you hear

[OscarGeronimo]

Thumbs up if Coltrane brought you here. (Or to any other standard he rearranged for himself)

[sunbrinson]

i miss you ms,ella fitzgerald i am hurt soooooooomuch!

[CHANEL0060]

I want to live in the 20's and meet her.

[thewigsterpig45]

@CHANEL0060 wrong decade if you're planning on bumping into Ella :P

[thewigsterpig45]

@CHANEL0060 unless you're planning on meeting her aged 13 at most :P

[Rodriquez124]

The Tournament brought me here, songs like this make slowmotion slaughters so much better :)

[MrSnookerman147]

This is a lovely song, and Ella sings it to perfection, What a great voice she had ! !

[Joey05ist]

Heard this lady all my life, what a sublime voice! I am always blown away listening to her.

[Silneubern]

Uma das mais belas canções, que inspiração tece Coole Porter...maravilhosa....Silvia B Neubern

[manutdforu]

Grew up with this music in my life, my father played it for me every Sunday and thought it was crap..... now I know this is real music and it's what music is and should be about. Plan go pass it on to my children and grandchildren cos it doesn't get any better than this! When I die, this is what I want played!! SMOOTH!!

[MOGGS1942]

If there is a better performance of any song out there,please,I'd like to know about it.

This is simply sublime.

[waltmanv]

Ha ha, it WAS Jack Frost that brought me here.

[0iMySize]

Thumbs up if Jack Frost brought you here.

[judyaosta]

nobody does it better. Absolutely perfect.

thank you so much for sharing these 3.35 of bliss

[misswhistlebritches]

@judyaosta Hi:) Big fan of Cole Porter too. If you haven't heard Nina Simone's rendition, check it out. Her vocal imagery and use of the intended "minor" key is incredibly touching.

[heraclitis1]

@judyaosta couldn't put it better...perfect!

[pixelfascination]

This lady was a legend, her voice was audio silk, I might be a punk but jazz makes me all weeee. :)

[MrSirDel]

The greatest female vocalist of all time...could melt the coldest heart

[wayne6969able]

I would have married Ella Fitzgerald....

[nickgall100]

8 dislikes? How on earth can you dislike this. They should be ashamed.

[Rokaiadotcom]

Tear. Talent!

[gerrypepper]

no one can come close absolutely wonderful

[7mdavies]

My wife's favourite, and I can understand why.....absolutely amazing singer...what a loss.

[victoshy]

Adorable voix ! J'adore toutes ces chansons

[Hbomb6440]

I can't believe ANYONE could dislike this song

[CaswellRichard]

Simply The Greatest Exponent of the American Popular Song.  Utter 'Magic'.

[rishidew1]

So beautiful..it bring tears in my eyes.. grtz Cecilia

[ellissmith111]

SIMPLY A QUEEN PLEASE SAY NO MORE

[judyaosta]

if I had to choose one album to take to a desert island, Ella Fitzgerald's Cole Porter Songbook would be it - and this track is perfection itself. Thanks for posting it on YouTube

[nauort23]

Who the fuc is Luc? Thumbs up if you want twittering tweener idiots to stick to Gaga and Bieber. xBox, vampire serial-producers and no-talent whores like those previously mentioned should be sued for/banned from even uttering the name of Ella Fitzgerald or Cole Porter.

[litamamita]

@nauort23 No! they shouldn't stick to bieber and gaga, everyone should hear this beautiful music

[FailarielArFeiniel]

Thumbs Up if ur good musical taste brought you here :))

[Rainmakesitbetter]

Thumbs up if Ella Fitzgerald brought you here.

[1980Houdini]

Ella Fitzgerald brought me here

[RFazz15]

This song is so beautiful. Cole Porter was truly a genius. And of all the versions I've heard of this, Ella's voice fits it the best.

[MDBellamy]

Definitive!

[miko50474]

True Lies 8(

[Mascro1977]

Ella Elle l'a

[Georgia100ify]

This voice I hear is stunning !

[PassionForMusic15]

stunning; reminds me of my late grandpa. gets me every time.

[CROMERBOY]

long live ella, your fab

[bolder2009]

"THE COLE PORTER ALBUM WAS THE TURNING POINT IN MY LIFE. DOING THOSE SONG-BOOKS HELPED ME GET INTO SPOTS I'D NEVER BEEN ABLE TO PLAY BEFORE. WHAT'S GOOD ABOUT IT TOO IS THAT NOW I CAN ALSO SING JAZZ FOR PEOPLE WHO NEVER LISTENED BEFORE." - Ella Fitzgerald

[dawnmsims42]

well don't you have it all figured out...lol a dirty look'n fuck'n sexy as can be greaseball from Ne GO BIG RED...

[praireguy23]

just because luc tweets it doesnt mean its for lady gaga remember last we heard they are no longer and she denies it all the time ... he's a dirty looking grease bag get over him already .

[xrubypazzx]

@praireguy23 she always lies to protect her personal life. plus luc's nickname for her is babydoll/doll.

[Hahaloo1]

@praireguy23 They ARE still together. Gaga herself said it to @MarcMonser less than 2 weeks ago!! + She tweeted the picture of Ginger (Luc Carl's car) on twitter not too long ago. + He still tweets about her all the time. + She did NOT deny having a boyfriend on the Late Show with David Letterman, she just tried to change the subject fearing that us monsters would think that they broke up if she said she doesnt have a bf. + HAVE YOU HEARD YOU & I?! I love Luc and so does Gaga, accept it already.

[kelsburk]

oh this is the cutest thing I have ever seen! Gaga and Lüc forever!

[EmmaWismyhero]

:(. im sad for them.

[lgcmay1]

Luc Carl brought me here when he said "Hurry Back Doll" to Gaga on twitter.

[ajustin672]

THumbs up if Luc brought you here.

[1980Houdini]

@ajustin672 go find a corner and die u sadcase

[ajustin672]

@1980Houdini go fuck yourself please. Thanku

[MsRainy810]

BLISS!!!

[DJDOM57]

[bairns1234]

[FlyingTypers]

talk about living on the black notes. first heard this when i was 12 and learned everything else from that point on. Geoffrey

[FlyingTypers]

talk about living on the black notes. ffirst heard this when i was 12 and learned everything else from that point on.

[jamaicob]

Had this played at my grandma's funeral today. It Really did make it a beautiful goodbye :)

[mariusthegolden]

[CandeCh]

wOnderful

she's amazing

[magdalena6787]

i raped replay button

[saxon954]

This is one of those unique combinations that come along every so often, a brilliant singer and a song that is made just for them. I heard this a few years ago in an old fashioned pub and when it was playing the years just seemed to roll away and it was like being transported into a more comfortable age. Brilliant.

[garethessex]

Love you Ella....

[bonjie2011]

i just can't have enough of her, so mmmmmmmaaaarvelous

[daniella752]

i cry ,..

[willedsmithmo]

I have never listened to this song without crying. It is SO absolutely beautiful. RIP Ella Fitzgerald you were amazing x

[gnyah12345]

this song was in the movie the tournament! thats how i found out about it n i love it

[GarretBraganca]

My Good! Linda, linda, linda. Choro e rio quando ouço. e Ella é insubstituível.

Aleleuia!!! Viva Cole Porter!

[1dolphingrl]

No one but Ella can be this talented..I saw the show "Ella the musical" in new haven last fall...amazing show. Love this music. Classic and timeless.

[MsSherinka]

I love her:-)

[locoflaco87]

Thank you for posting this. Nobody compared to Ella.

[kevinastraw]

Thou wast not born for death, immortal Bird! No hungry generations tread thee down; The voice I hear this passing night was heard In ancient days by emperor and clown: Perhaps the self-same song that found a path Through the sad heart of Ruth, when, sick for home, She stood in tears amid the alien corn; The same that oft-times hath Charm'd magic casements, opening on the foam Of perilous seas, in faery lands forlorn. John Keats - Ode To A Nightingale

[1billwill]

Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SexyHogwarts]

She sings this so beautifully!! I love her so much!!!

[BillDFC]

Sheer effen perfection!

[LadyBug3314]

This heart speaks so much. I cannot help but feel I was born in the wrong time period sometimes (me being 21). This music is overwhelmingly beautiful. Thanks!!!

[anamneses28]

@LadyBug3314 I'm with you totally!!!! I'm 29 and everyone my age thinks I'm crazy. But my bf always says I was born in the wrong time. Luckily so was he - but he's the 50's-60's (He's 26). lol

[enigmamelodies]

I'd like to say this is my favourite Cole Porter song... It is.. but any Cole Porter song i am listening to at the time is my favourite one. And Ella is in my memory as the best interpreter of the song I ever heard.... She puts you in heaven, that's for sure... I was lucky enough to see her once at 'the Little Club' in LA. No longer there. All the great places in Hollywood are either gone, or have turned into amusement parks.. Well, this IS my favourite and it IS heavenly...

[darrynray]

Heard this on the ipod shuffle tonight. Always very poignant and sad, but better to have loved, etc.... I guess

[jaynemelvi]

This woman had the voice of an Angel, never to be heard again. It was supposed to be the finale song as requested at my fathers funeral, but some dingus cocked it up by forgetting to play it, it was my fathers favourite singer of all time......god bless you all...xxxx

[imajeepster]

Holly Cole wishes she were Ella Fitzgerald..however, Ella could actually SING.

[imajeepster]

you can't go wrong with Cole porter....

[Wisterialodge]

Vocal perfection with a wonderful song. Simply timeless

[LarryStaples]

Ella would not be PC, she was 'too heavy' for todays, beauty/singing competition...but she had a God-sent voice that only Karen shared. IMHO.

Larry

[HollyOgre]

I wish artists these days would sing more like Ella and Dean Martin, because all this mainstream rapping, pop, and hip-hop crap is not art. So many hip hop "singers" use autotune anyways, like how the hell do people think they are talented? THIS right here, is real, genuine talent.

[Dreambro1]

@HollyOgre The songs of old sung about loving somebody else, the songs nowadays sings about loving ourselves! Songs today are very selfish and self centered, and they wonder why fights break out most nights in night clubs nowadays! Music has a great impact on mental well beinging, or the lack thereof! when people bounce all night with an entitlement issues and songs that scream ph@ck u, and Kiss myA@@ all night, what else do you expect from the crowd?

[patjack1956]

The wondrous voice of Ella Fitzgerald, the one, the only, the voice that touches one's heart.

[zjoemzjoem]

This is awesome!!!

[artisticluminiere]

Every single time.....

[darrynray]

@artisticluminiere Heard this recently and thought the same thing

[ThisismadnessGIRL]

It kind of makes me sad about teens my age, they have hardly any respect for this sort of music.... I love this so much... I guess it makes me happy to be different.

[IsabellaIvy]

A more beautiful jazz singer has never been heard. Her voice is clear and clean and beautiful.

[aymirala]

Music...of any kind...is one of man's greatest gift to nature. And this kind just happens to sound like a more beautiful gift to me.

[thehotash1]

great song , n what a voice .

[bluesgirl62]

Great!!!

[MrBonghits666]

One of my all time favorite singers. I love Ella, her voice is enchanting!

[maureen1938]

FANTASTIC..... a lovely song sung by one of the finest of singers ever. Thank you for posting.

[JCThomsonMA]

Of all the great things America gave the world in the 20th century, none is greater than the popular song. (And really great artists to perform them). This is a perfect example (among thousands).

[bingcro]

thanks for posting do you know if billy eckstein made a record of this lovely song

[LotteCM]

Her voice is probably the purest and greatest there ever was. I love her so much, her and Billie Holiday <3

[jazyag]

I will never say goodbye to Ella. I will play her music till the day I die. RIP.

[hmango1]

@jazyag Ditto!!! x

[globalman]

@jazyag Amen to that........

[NotOrdinaryInGames]

This song is made of WIN.

[Pocahontabeauty]

absolutely wonderful. her voice is so angelic. you can hear in her voice that she is not trying. it's natural.

[OLaverty111]

 Lovely just Perfect! ♥♥

[newgeneration123]

Nobody in the world today can sing this song better than she does!

[rreettyyuull]

@newgeneration123 you need to listen to sarah vaughan's version

[RaeRae914]

Gold dust Ella xx

[anniemt53]

Absolutely beautiful,magical vocals. Do not think that any female vocalists can match her.

[rreettyyuull]

@anniemt53 thats shows how much you know about people and singing

[john8pies]

oh but this is just marvellous singing of a wonderful song..........

[mtheadedwally]

A very classy, very talented lady.

So much better than these Christina-Britney-Mariah screaming creatures turned out by X-Factor and AGT/BGT!

[dogdaygirl]

This really is God speaking through the most amazing singer on earth. Ever. Period.I love this woman more than words could ever express. RIP Ella.

[rAYsimmon]

I first heard this song when I was like 15 on Parent Trap when one twin returned to England with her mother on the airplane, and it was raining really hard.

[themissxulita013]

wonderful

[Wellibers]

Kippevel

[belle1232]

those gods can be oooohh so cruel!!!

[BillDFC]

A level above everything else...sublime.

[loredwards]

beautiful voice one of the best ever

[Branner]

I wish Riddle had done the arrangements on all the Songbooks. He has the most intelligent strings. This is good--but not as good as the arrangements on the Gershwin Songbook.

[cantbeatpizza]

Effortless. I agree with the post of wellgday.

[1408alan]

Pure class. A perfect combination of unforced, mellow voice and fantastic orchestration. Today's untalented, overrated 'divas' can only dream of interpreting a song as good as Ella does hereh. I have to say that I HATE jazz, and I am not a big fan either of 'standards'. But this performance simply grabs you and holds you in its thrall. I defy anyone to argue that this is not one of the best tracks EVER made.

[aschmarkl]

sheer perfection

[eihwazone]

If you say yes I will be there

if you say no then i am alone

what a magnificent voice....zgirl

[rcaciamf]

GREAT SONG - GREAT VOICE!

[BluesAndJam]

heavenly.

[sumiregusa23]

The best version of this song ever. Made my head full of dreams and my eyes glassy. Just listen to this voice... *sigh*

[dldbug]

She was and remains the first lady of song.

[VadimDorof]

I love her so much!

[jeffreysalley]

annie lennoux sings a version of this song that is simply heartbreaking

[1960COB]

My joy is that my Sister was blessed with Ella's Voice & when she sung Ella you could not tell the difference even Louis Armstrong thought she was black when he heard her & was blown away by her fell & rich toned voice, unfortunately it was in South Africa in the apartheid era, so she could not sing with his band enough said

She sang this to me when I was a kid it influenced my playing so much I became know as The Singer on Drums.

WHAT A JOY to hear this & revisit my youth.

Will

[sorrelita2010]

@1960COB ;)))

[TXRider]

Another song to put up with Hoagy Carmichael's "The Nearness of You" in my list of most wonderful love songs (be they happy, sad, plaintive, thoughtful, sweet....). But this song can also apply to any goodbye, not just a romantic goodbye.

[chkjns]

Added this to 1956 in my century of music archive - a playlist for each and every year back to 1900 lets you hear the music of any year in the context of its time.

Each list plays up to 2 hours like a trip into the past, hope you try it . . . . . . . .

[youpla72]

Vive la musique

Vive le net

Merci pour la vidéo

[cuzinkevin]

Fantastic song by the greatest singer of her generation ( and thats saying something as there were more great singers then than now) just pure magic.

[jbobsession123]

she has an amazingly pure and wonderful voice.

[tashadarazor]

i love this song soo much!

[jellytot1000]

Absolutely wonderful - the voice of an angel.

[Vandrandelik]

She died valiantly!

[Scoobybyeday]

The definitive version of this exquisite song! I can remember hearing it on Two Way Family Favourites on BBC's Light Programme back in the early Sixties. Mmmmmm! Ahhh!

[Raeanne231]

Holy shit what vocal cords this woman has ......

[hayfords]

Such a beautiful song. It is even more so, if you have someone special in mind.

[schlesmail]

The Buddy Bregman arrangement is a perfect match for Ella's interpretation. The combination is up there at the top, along with her version of Midnight Sun & Nelson Riddle's arrangement of that Johnny Mercer classic.

[zeena61]

..there is no love song finer, but how strange the change from major to minor...!!

Sheer magic!!

[613thedude]

People who like M.I.A.'s "Paper Planes" should listen to real music like this...

[KateLouise]

and what do you say to the people who like both? I love Ella and M.I.A. Music is subjective and to get the most out of it its best to keep an open mind, about all of it.

[kidcodea]

i like both.

a lot.

[muesdale]

Great song, great singer, what more do wee need....

[standenberg]

Argubly the best love-song ever written, and most peoples favourite version with Ella's beautiful voice that makes this a timeless golden classic.
