I was born about 4 decades too late to have ever seen this woman before solo or with "The Mamas and the Papas" so sad, so very sad. I will never see the greats perform except from a TV screen. The best i can do is Roger Waters presents "The Wall", it will do, but isn't Pink Floyd for sure.
My cousin always asks me if angels exsisted. I could never find a way to explain that to him, so now I just play him this song and he'll never ask again. LOVE YOU MAMA CASS! <3
@KyuuKitsuChan Perhaps the two dislikes were from fans of the 1931 version by Wayne King. Nonetheless, this is a fine recording, and I remember when it was a hit in 1968.
@ymechaie and people like you are 10 years old.i have worked in the game for long enought to actually know what i am talking about..there was no protools back then there was only analog reel to reel tape and 4 tracks....so you could not even layer vocals the way you can,no such things as pitch correct or atuo tune!!!
You mean I'm an 18 year old that's actually conscious of music outside of the mainstream? You're old people are narrow minded idiots. You hear a pitchcorrector on the radio so you say "Wow music today sucks." I wasn't aware that everyone on earth should stop making music because you want to suck Louis Armstrong's dick. Stop generalizing you fucking buffoon. Listen to real music before you type it in the comment section idiot.
@ymechaie childish remark like i was expecting,you dont know who i am or what i work at or even how old i am, so your right iam wrong ....never once did i say i had an issue with music of today never once did i say it was crap or shit or anything of the kind..because its old it does not mean its bad or shit,yeah there was shit then too but at 18years old you already know it all.why bother..if you understood my post and knew what you were on about you would understand my point!
"back when singers sang and recorded live..no tricks no computers just tallent..." You're right noone today has talent. Are you implying that I said old music is bad?
Also you said "and people like you are 10 years old" then said "you dont know who i am or what i work at or even how old i am" Fucking idiot.
I understand the point you're making, that singers today are talentless hack's using computers to their advantage. It's jsut a retarded point and you've proved nothing. I'm sure I know more about music recording/production at 18 then you do at however old you are.
@ymechaie not at all,the pc has changed how things are done,so good and some bad,fact is lots of artists are going back to analog because it sounds more pure,matter of opionion there however..over 20years in the game my friend my point was at the outset that the recording was done off the cuff and good enough as is without the need to be fixed.a lot of what makes music good is its imperfection,and thats what is missing these days,when did i say anything about singers of today may i ask
"back when singers sang and recorded live..no tricks no computers just tallent..."
Right there.
And if you really think that all music today is just perfect without imperfections that's bullshit. You really seem as though you're bullshitting yourself right now. You really REALLY need to get out and actually listen to some music before making B.S. generalizations.
@ridgebackdk I bet you hear any sort of voice effect and you immediately call it shit. That's the problem with the aging population is they're really stuck in their time. To the point where they can't even appreciate art.
I love this song, it is beautiful and it touched my soul! I fell in love with a man I had known all my life from gradeschool on and I am 63 but had not ended his relationship before we feel in love and I had not ended my marriage but now I have started my divorce and his x girlfriend has wormed her way back into his life and it is a mess and the only way we could communicate was thru songs and we considered this one ours and hope someday we may get the chance to be together.
@baxpepindramlinc HOLY FUCKING LIFE STORY WHO THE FUCK CARES ITS THE INTERNET!?! U WANT HELP??? MAYBE INSTEAD OF SPENDING UR TIME POSTING POINTLESS LIFESTORIES U SHOULD GIVE UR MAN A BJ
@wongtonfui66 CHILL! Did you forget to take your happy pill today? You're right... it's the fucking internet. And the screen that is in front of each of us is our own little world. You don't like what someone publishes? Then move the fuck on. Jebus. What a dolt!
@wongtonfui66 Chill ur stupid, ugly, little ass down. Remember that old saying, "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything." DO THAT ASSHOLE! Gees. Someone should report you for EXTREME rudeness and harrassing that poor girl. SHUT UP.
une chanson de1968;pratiquement oubliee,sauf pour une pub;des annees a chercher le nom du groupe(ah,si j'avais connu internet)et pour finir une romance anglaise a cavalaire(83)cela valait la peine de chercher;amities a tous
There are sick people out there that say she choked on a piece of ham. I wish them good luck in getting in heaven where she is sitting under a sycamore tree, singing all the day long with her beautiful voice untouched by time.
@yugoroth1 I agree. Anyway, how could she have choked on ham if she was of the Jewish faith. Wasn't her name Ellen Naomi Cohen at birth and baptised Jewish?
Mama Cass had the most beautiful voice, let us remember her for music achievements. RIP to her.
I don't remember where i first heard this song, how old i was when i did, or how, but i was surfing through youtube "self-sung" videos, and found this girl singing this song. All of a sudden it clicked, and i remembered this song, THIS version, or Mama Cass singing it. I think it was around the time i first watched The Notebook, because this song reminds me of the movie. (which i just recently rewatched, i cried, again). LOVE this song. it's so sweet
