Diahann Carroll sings "Sleeping Bee" Harold Arlen

I was foutunate enough to see the play"House of Flowers" off- broadway with Ms. Carroll in the title role. I never thought a play about prostitutes could be so beautiful and grand! In the play Ms Carroll stopped the show with this number. I will never forget her! Such a talent.

She's so beautiful...even now!!!!!!

Someday an adjective will be invented to capture Ms. Carroll's beauty. I had the great pleasure to see her several times and a few years back at the tiny club room at the Colony Hotel. I told my friend that I could go home if she just sang When The Sun Comes Out, a number I'd seen her belt at Carnegie Hall. She opened with WTSCO and I was melting with joy. What a gift.

I just directed a PBS concert special to air in August, which stars Diahann Carroll live in Palm Springs in her one-woman show, backed by the Pat Rizzo Orchestra. She is just a s beautiful as ever and an absolute delight to work with. Chip Miller/Director

We only see what we are capable of seeing in life.. Being a stupid racist isnt really that much fun..If you dont know that now, you will find out by how ugly your own life will become

[Doumbeck]

The "BABOON" word is racist ... you should shut up and wish you had 1% of this  person's music talent!

[boxer301977]

No its not. This women is a dired up old prun. You should shut up and pray to a higher power for brains.

[boxer301977]

I only see a person who use racism as an excusee for everything.

This Arlen's B"way musical was one of the best shows with a great cast, singing the wonderful Arlen songs, including Diahann's "Sleeping Bee." I was so lucky to see it. The CD captures this great musical, too.

does anybod have Diahann's rendition of this on "the Coca-Cola Hour w/ Eddie Fisher". It might have been her first TV appearance (ca. 1954)....

Very Nice~~*

[directortregarrett]

Audra Mcdonald's version is best

[MRDEREVKO]

This is lovely, as is Barbra S version,

but my absolute favorite version is by the incomparable Dame Julie Andrews.

Thank you for the upload.

[guitaress1]

That was spectacular, thanks for posting it!

Rarely credited but Barbra Streisand first heard this song (one of Barbra's favorite) sung by Diahann Carroll.
