  • The newly reissued original MGM soundtrack features Ava Gardner's beautiful renditions of the two "Showboat" songs. Ava could sing well ------------------- and OMG, she was as gorgeous as Elizabeth Taylor!  She was also a much better actress than she was given credit for. If you see Ava Gardner in "The Barefoot Contessa", and then see Liz Taylor in "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" ------- it's a dead heat in terms of sheer beauty.

  • I love Ava...she was such a doll !!!

  • She's surprisingly good, but even she agreed that the role was meant for her friend Lena Horne.

  • THIS IS HER VOICE

  • Oh I am just so in love with Ava Gardner !!! I mean could anyone be more beautiful ?!? She really was one of the most stunning women that ever lived , wow .....

  • I like this because Ava's perforemance make me think she singing to me!!!!!!

  • i love this song so much and ava's rendition is touchingly beautiful. she makes me cry every time i see this because it makes me remember two of the most important people in my life both named bill. they passed away a long time ago but they are never forgotten and forever in my heart. thank you for this.

  • Beautiful! Well there is an explanation if you can follow it, of who was singing. Ava could sing.But this is a beautiful version, whoever it is.

    Check it out.It's from "Ava My Story"

  • why do people have to bring up their warped ''ideas' about the personal lives of film-stars, whether the remarks be true or not. I don't know if Ava sang this or if it was dubbed, but it's great to hear this lovely old song again. Thanks for this.

  • The one who don't love it , is a basterd !!!

  • wow what a face. what beautiful expressions. mmmmm

  • This is what a movie star looks like. Ava Gardner was absolutely stunning.

  • this song it for my daddy BILL!!! me and my mommy love this song!!!

  • Wonderful song.

  • Who's a lesbian? Not Ava. She was man-crazy, that gal. You must mean Gennifer Flowers. I suppose she was dating Hillary, then. How did this go from a discussion of Ava and "Show Boat" to Gennifer and Bill?

  • She was gorgeous.

  • Gennifer Flowers, former mistress of Bill Clinton, sang this song in her nightclub act after she became famous revealing their 10 year affair in 1992

  • I love this song. It reminds me of someone I know. I think his name is Bill!

  • Who cares what her private life was like? Who cares whose voice is being used? She is a movie star and she is beautiful. This voice works better for the image of the movie star. I'm buying are you? Sold.

  • and she was a lesbian too!

  • Ava was preplexed that the film's director didn't use her voice for this number. In my opinion, Annette Warren did a fine job, but Ava's voice would have equally adequate.

  • This is not Ava Gardner's voice - it's Annette Warren. To hear Ava sing, search youtube for:

  • I thought her voice was dubbed?
