[bajones88]

Totally diggin it man!

[BluePandada]

Makes me think of Diego Armando

[Jeannekm126]

Perfect song for breakfast.

[MrRaceRealist]

Julie London has the best version. Sarah Vaughan's version is second best, and Ella's is third best

[ImogenKate360]

@MrRaceRealist Nah Ella was ment to sing this song! and don't worry im not telling you you're wrong i love all versions and im a fan of julie.

[Carlschwamberger1]

Music like this makes me want to grind coffee, stir sugar... ya know what I mean

[privatekas]

the perfect voice,Ella is the best

[M4hB]

Tricky made a good cover of this song.

[megsomean]

@M4hB is that a jazz singer from the 40's or 50's?

[bolder2009]

@megsomean He's a critically acclaimed UK 'trip hop' artist from the 90's. He is very experimental. Trip Hop is a niche genre that came out of the Bristol music scene in England. Portishead and Massive Attack are the best known band to come out of it.

[M4hB]

@megsomean No it's not... he does Trip-Hop, check it out Tricky- Black Coffee the song has a bit more rythm to it.

[95jwood]

Grade 7 Piano :)

[nlpview]

beautiful song



[nida2192s]

Im drinking really strong black coffee at this very moment. Listening to her sing "Black Coffee" while drinking it is priceless...

[Kakarot21591]

Ah, coffee and cigarettes... the breakfast of champions!

[lonegeminielf2]

The beautiful velvety voice of one of the best female , or is she the best, jazz singers? Love Ella.

[fixable1980]

this is so magnificent! 

[groovinilo]

Vuelve Ella!!!

[bluekitteneyes]

I love sugar in my coffee.

But I also love Ella. I'm accepting of different coffee tastes, ye know.

[trollkors78]

Right now, Brasilia Santos Coffee + Ella Fitzgerald... great.

[ursula4983]

very soulful! I think kd langs version stacks up to it, a little different approach but just as effective

[FullOfAgat]

[doma68ful]

I like this version but prefer Sarah Vaughan...both are great singers...

[peacewoman06]

I drink black coffee.



[Maritaliendocuen]

yo conocí a Ella por casualidad, porque habían puesto de fondo una de las cancinoes de ella en un video de Marilyn Monroe, me encanta.

[elizabethjmendes]

her voice is soo true.

[Rosmarrosel]

I don't drink coffee but Fitzgerald makes me want to smell the coffee

[Nanikee]

Anyone who dislikes Ella needs a lobotomy. Geez.

[fireflynebula]

I drink my coffee with cream, but Fitzgerald makes me want to drink it black. 

[adolfchurchill]

@fireflynebula dude you realise that's racist

[fireflynebula]

@adolfchurchill Haha, silly little troll.

[adolfchurchill]

@fireflynebula why must i be a little troll can't i be a big troll... or a medium troll? now you are just discriminating against trolls. what a discriminatory person.



[fireflynebula]

@adolfchurchill Aww, you can be any kind of troll you want! Just eat your vegetables, and you'll be big and strong and trolling like nobody's business in no time.

[adolfchurchill]

@fireflynebula now you are just going too far. Stop suggesting that us trolls only eat vegetables, we eat meat too you know. Please stop all your discrimination against others.

[fireflynebula]

@adolfchurchill Well, how about vegetarian trolls? Now *you're* discriminating! Tsk tsk.

[adolfchurchill]

@fireflynebula ok dude. stop failing. If you have nothing to say than don't say it. That made as much sense as my trolling:)

[fireflynebula]

@adolfchurchill Yes, there is lots of sense in trolling, indeed! (I will stop now anyway, cause I have work to go to)

[adolfchurchill]

@fireflynebula haha. pleasant conversation with you. do you mind if I ask how old you are? Then i'll shut up for good :D

[fireflynebula]

@adolfchurchill 27. Now I reeeaally have to go. Have a nice day!

[adolfchurchill]

@fireflynebula nice day to you too

[TheCreeperCrusher]

@adolfchurchill It's not a nice day, it's raining in England.

[Johnnydry2]

@adolfchurchill well Pizza has meat on them and they're a vegetabel now...

[Johnnydry2]

I failed on my previous comment with "has" and "them" for you grammar nazis!

[squiigle]

Goddamn gorgeous.

[nixie1986]

Tricky did a cover of this. Gorgeous song.

[JMCyoungblood]

I bet it was breathtaking! Soul,beauty,stunning,lyrical. What a queen!!

[gatorindo]

in-credible.

[SGPlayer0008]

I drank too much black coffee in my day. I can't drink coffee anymore ... or smoke either... I miss it. Classic, timeless. Peggy Lee and Sarah Vaughn are not slouches on this song either. Ella was so smooth. 5/5 stars.

[Wildwoodflowerify]

wonderful, thank you. I saw her live in the 80s :)

[JMCyoungblood]

@Wildwoodflowerify Me tooooo. Different time and Era ; (

[Wildwoodflowerify]

@JMCyoungblood oh I saw her in Los Angeles :)

[Somma10691]

Happy National Coffee Day!!

[villasukat]

12 people are racism.

[AnelesXD]

11 people put cream and sugar in their coffee.

[azobichambonbonki]

@AnelesXD But I like cream and sugar in my coffee... :( I also like Ella Fitzgerald, btw. ^^

[lekremyelsew]

@AnelesXD Man, I really hate dislikes jokes, but that was just too clever XD

[ElleEstTrois]

@AnelesXD LOL!

[AnelesXD]

@lousbits That's pretty harsh.

[KCOtutti1]

@lousbits Completely ridiculous reaction, dude! Not funny! You have a sick mind.

[cwcwful]

@AnelesXD Not accurate. I put sweetener and cream in my coffee. And love this song. Just saying, is all.

[beeeefa]

Beautiful.

[The0Original0Erislei]

11 people have no taste. 

[MissIdaMaria]

I don't like coffee at all, but I like this song =D

[CaronAplus]

@MissIdaMaria ....lol

[mairsile1]

@MissIdaMaria thats exactly what I was going to say

[benporter1995paris]

The dislikers obviously dont know what real and good music is !

[whoadude1959]

@TheTrippybutterfly

"stow it?".....I adore Miss Ella and this song.....

[MrDiegusto]

Que talento!

[MakeMeFamousBaaby]

And drown her past regrets in coffee and cigarettes.

[BlueishDevil]

Amazing... Thats all what can describe this.

[babischucko]

What a picture!

[BurningMarmite]

I think she is the best woman singer ever! Its so relaxing...

[Buchtinka1304]

Great, soothing sounds and her voice... Cheers with a red wine for this Lady and this special song! Love it!

[turtlepye]

[kanselmi]

[ellahaber]

[tracksuitjim]

best black flag cover i ever heard

[girlygirlgloss]

the dislike button is actually (if its possible ) smaller than Justin B. penis 

[claralivefromcydonia]

Me gusta más la voz de Elle Fitzgerald que la de Dinah Washington

[cadomore]

there are to reasons... they made a mistake.

or as we say in spanish..."there´s nothing written about taste"

I like black cofee with out sugar!! haha

[ClassyTrashyNasty]

It's an insult to compare the quality of this kind of songs and singers to most of the current ones.

[friesou]

Indisputable the alltime of jazz!

[bobofayamala]

Comfortable and a little sorrow, I listen to this song again and again

[em1995]

wow, the more I listen to this song the more I love it, just discovering jazz now, jazz far better than any other genre i've ever heard in my 16 years. :) wish we still had these legends to share their magic with us in the flesh, but at least their music carries their souls forever.

[ord2jpn]

I just discovered this song and it's now my wake up alarm. lol Love it!

[MistressArte]

Wow usually I don't like this kind of stuff but she's really good.

[metanoiate]

Good lord, how can she put in a tune what a bleeding heart feels like...?

[theelf97]

I was named after her! :) shes amazing

[Muzika88]

Incredible the way she doesn't seem to put any effort into it. The song just pours out

!

[DAOFFICIAL505CONNECT]

mobsta shit

[Glendoras]

Got to love this..

[ReiReiRachel]

How the hell you can "tumbs down" Ella Fitzgerald?!

[californiasales]

@ReiReiRachel she can sing but the song is boring imo

[typacsk]

@ReiReiRachel For what it's worth, your comment alone has managed to get more "thumbs up" in a month than the video has gotten "thumbs down" in two years.

[thegreenpothead]

@ReiReiRachel By mistake ;)

[TiikerinKarva]

@ReiReiRachel How the hell can you care?

[America2470]

@ReiReiRachel Because the world is ending.. This is the ONLY explanation. Yes my friend, we live in the age of wolves and shattered shields.. All bonds of fellowship have been broken. The end is nye...

[Eznow67]

@ReiReiRachel ....lobotomy victims  ;o)

[theBUZer]

@ReiReiRachel Racists?

[MrByaeger]

@ReiReiRachel they confuse this with ancient gladiator fights where thumbs down meant " keep their soul on earth". that or they are stone deaf, because Ms. Ella is the truth, as great as it gets.

[maisqpoesia9999lcg]

Extremely nice!!!

[sanndra78]

sooo good with my black coffe at the terrace :)

[JustTheooo]

I suffer from bad headaches and Ella helps me soothe them, I love Ella Fitzgerald's music!

[unufrii]

How does one dislike this? Actually that's obvious... but why????

[ime916]

Fabulosa......Imelda de Mexico

[macriff72]

8 dislikes?!?!?!DAMN.

[Nanessa12]

@macriff72

[mi9ro9]

[gdtmaysville]

I love this version but I cant find the Rosemary clooney version.

[MissFoutreLaMerde]

Orgasmic - OMG...

[Lilitush]

Trying to compare Sarah Vaughan's version and Ella Fitzgerald's. Can't. Both genius <3

[watchitww1]

@Lilitush I can. While I LOOOOVE Sarah, NO ONE compares to Ella F. Hands down, THE. BEST. that EVER DID IT. IMOLOL

[AriM]

@watchitww1

agree 100%......no one will ever be Ella.....

[80sbetch]

The song reminds me of rainy sundays laying on my couch just chillin with a good book.

[Stavroupoliable89]

thumbed up and favourited. When I hear such a voice, I'm almost embarrased I dare to sing in front of an audience...

[whoadude1959]

6 people don't drink black coffee...

[Clefbox]

Love it !

[BERTRAMCAT]

Merry Xmas Ella the Magician,.,..

[lolmartixu]

the picture is beautifull! the song is amazing! love it

[ginad86]

I started browsing youtube to find some Christmas songs to add to my playlist, fell in love with Ella's version of Have Yourself A Marry Little Christmas and Sleigh Ride, and now I'm gliding along the Ella train! I'm almost ashamed to say this is the first time I've ever really listened to her music, but I absolutely adore her voice and have quickly become a fan!

[mesodrnqt]

@ginad86 She was a musical GENIUS!!! Wish there were more artist like her todayQ

[MrJuno6]

Ella could sing the phone book and make it sound fantastic, pure genius.

[andredicenna]

God save the queen Ella

[DivineLove18]

WOW! She is good!

[gabbirawk]

[pinkhighway]

[hobosandbuttmonkeys]

My Mum always plays this on piano and I just love it.

It's such a beautiful track.

[acerflots]

4 down voters, they must've been intoxinated with the magic and meant the plus sign, but they were just too relaxed to click the right thumb

[fabfourgroupie]

[FiberKatz]

Absolutely beautiful!

[VercingetorixXIII]

Damn what an absolute beautiful voice, I never knew... pure and so sweet...

[extasisNOW]

Quieras o no su maravillosa voz te mueve por dentro. Te llega hasta lo más profundo de tu ser.

[NicolaWriter]

I stan for Miss Ella so BAD.

Absolute perfection.

[195477]

This song has a very similar pattern ,although slower, to Elvis's Ain't that loving you baby.

[RememberSoCal]

rip ella u are so badass

[vealshanker]

honey! i'm yours...

[DerKast]

that  is a amazing photo.

[deena0207]

Try black coffe by ana kruger ;)

[sainka2]

now i've listened to peggy lee's, sarah vaughan's and julie london's version a thousand times... i must say it's absolutely clear to me that ella's version is incomparable! her voice suits these melodies the best, but what makes this song so extraordinary is her soul, her feeling for it. it's wonderful, fantastic, my favorite song!

[195477]

@sainka2 watch?v=zc_QjIbeIp8

[78sadie]

What a great song!

[ThatSideOfParadise]

Does anyone know where i could get the sheet music for this?

[Mockingturtle]

@ThatSideOfParadise The Real Book

[panhead1219]

Total weepiness, She made my eyes tear.

[SMBSE1]

But this was the real deal according to my grandpa, and me:

[nida2192s]

love the way she hits those low notes....

[nellie2581]

That's the versoion I have.

[el6caballo6oscuro6]

i hear that, black tea is as good as tea can be, but a cupa black coffee man, that's where it's at :)

[27pianodude27]

@el6caballo6oscuro6 same here dude, good luck with it though :)

[simonwleeds]

Perfect!

[MrFananani]

se penso che una volta c'era il festival jazz a sanremo e ora c'è anna tatangelo...mi vorrei ammazzare!!!...perchè in questa italia l'arte è scomparsa da anni!!!

[KrisMoretti]

Hadn't heard this song till tonight. :) I like it~

[bigfish0886]

A beautiful voice and a song about my favorite drink! WOOHOO!

[NorthIsNotUp]

3 people missed the like button :(

[JNWsinger]

gosh i just love her voice and how deep and sultry it can be as well as perfectly crisp and pure when she hits her higher notes. brilliance.

[joehop1505]

Ella sing it.the one and only......

[flokopuffs]

i honestly truly believe that her voice is absolutely perfect. i mean really just perfection.

[kraftpr]

@flokopuffs I believe Leonard Bernstein once paid her the highest compliment -- he said her voice was so perfect you could tune an orchestra to it! Doesn't get much better than that.

[arvedsin]

@flokopuffs 100% agreed.
