  • beayutful song beautiful person..RIP MaMa Cass

  • Who cares what she looks like? Just listen to the music. 

  • i love u Mama Cass

  • Comment removed

  • what did this great lady really die from?

  • Comment removed

  • @hardsam68 Heart attack. The rumor about "choked on a ham sandwich" is just that..a rumor.

  • Great songs and entertainers freeze frame a place & time when you first here them sing a certain song like this one did.

  • thank you barbergreg...they are shallow idiots who are,on the inside,the ugliest people ever!!! i have been called big fat mama cass before...simply for reason we both big with long dark hair..oh well i would sooner be likened to a REAL woman like her than a terrible plastic fake like katie price or pamela anderson!!!

  • All you Chubby Chasers luv this GIRL!  hER MEASUREMENTS ARE ASTOUNDING!

  • I am real big too,,i have a condition known as lymphatic disease...with severe lymphedema..this means my body builds up lymphatic fluids making me bloat and look huge,,i spend up to 5 months at a time in hospital...i have heard it all too..i must be fat..greedy..eat cream buns and chocolate all day..my condition also gives lethargy and fatigue so bad i can barely have energy to open eyes at times..been told i am lazy..bone idle etc.ppl should stop n think....and mama cass was a beautiful lady..x

  • @bigbaddemoness those people who say those horrible things are just FAT INSIDE

  • Jpsmart shut the fuck up you are a piece of swine excrement and she had a condition known as poly cystic ovary disease which causes weight gain so and more talent then you ever will. Your opinion is useless

  • I was little when this song came out, but not so little that I couldn't recognize a beautiful voice. Cass Elliot created this awesome sound with little effort. There was no need to distract with clevage, grinding dance moves and overt sexuality. The sound alone sold itself. Sadly, today's music industry seems to have merged music with soft core porn. It's no longer just about the sound.

  • i love how little effort is needed from her to make such beautiful music

  • no voice tuning, no bullshit dance routine just a real beautifull voice,rip mama :(

  • The haters can hate, her voice touches my soul. And for its worth she looks better than me or most of the people who comment on youtube videos.

  • She is fat, admit it, moral people. She isnt beautiful at all. You wont EVER go into bed with her.

    Still she reaches your heart with this song. This does not make her beautiful at all. But you should thank her for finding love in yourself. Thats what its about.

    Thank you, Elliot.

  • @Trollwut gtfo. Its not about getting her to bed. Its about how beautiful her soul is and how happy she makes us. Being fat doesnt make you ugly. Burn, bitch.

  • @Trollwut say wut Troll? :P but i agree. she is no beauty-icon. though who cares? nice voice. nice song. easy listening. the rest is irrelevant.

  • I like the old man at the beginning of the movie, "The Dream Team" who is singing this song. He is in the nuthouse, but sounds happy when he is singing it.

  • God Bless you Cass. I for one will not forget you....There are some things only the right person can do well.

  • tolle Stimme, sie ist leider zu früh gestorben, klaus 4044 aus Duisburg Deutschland

  • Heart conduction defect, thats what killed her, damn shame

  • voice so smooth. love it. RIP Cass!

  • She looks a little like Lady Gaga in the face. :) She's got such a kind face.

  • We still love you Cass!

  • Looks don't mean jack if you have genuine talent. Susan Boyle anyone?

  • @mrspivvy Right on!!

  • I agree with you sterling

  • This sure as hell beats the hip hop rap CRAP were stuck with today!

  • what a shame we lost her so young. she was so very good to hear. so smooth and so , i don't know the word, heck, i just really enjoy her music and singing and always have and always will, and thats the way that song is sung.

  • Beautiful Song

  • mama cass beautiful woman and beautiful voice....dam shamw she dies so young

  • I have this on my iPod!

  • I'm not usually attracted to fat chicks but mama cass was sexy as hell.

  • Thank you so much for uploading this. After all these years, it's so wonderful to see Ms. Cass again.

  • The one and only, the greatest mixed group to ever grace a stage and instill lasting memories in your soul.

  • Back in the days when live versions sounded as good as the recording... Man I miss those.

  • 7 people are fucking stupid.

  • Beautiful song by a person beautiful inside and out. All the shallow people can GFY> Thank you

  • Ah, the late 60's and the early 70's, were musians and singers where taken on their merit and substance as performers!!

    Thanks for posting!!

  • She had a voice nothing can compare she is awesome (RIP)

  • I saw this on TV as a kid & I STILL love this song :)

  • she reminds me alot of adele.

  • Beautiful song sung by a beautiful soul, such a pity that some people are so shallow that they can't see beyond the outside.

  • @rockknitter

    Didn't she die choking on a ham sandwich?

  • @sethbaumgardner No, the ham sandwich story is a myth. She died of a heart attack, which you can read in the Wikipedia article about her.

  • @scandiescot2 I wonder why she had a heart attack.

  • @sethbaumgardner may it have had to do with the incredibly fast pace of a very demanding career, delivering commanding performances at the Paladium back to back & NOT having eaten anything (THAT is what autopsy revealed) wouldn't that be tragically ironic if depriving herself of much needed sustenance during such strenuous output - have you seen how energetic she was? - & o if that had to do with self image from shallow judgmental plebes she shared her love & voice with...?

  • @sethbaumgardner such an asshole.

  • @penatibusx I agree.

  • @rockknitter She's beautiful inside out.

  • @rockknitter She was actually pretty..I mean she had pretty features if people really LOOKED. :)

  • Absolutely fabulous voice, and a really talented and down to earth loving and caring individual. Its so great to see this clip. 

  • Back drop a tropical island? hidden messages anyone?

  • @Haures66 and what would that be?

  • @SilentRiotXOX Lost reference? idk?

  • thank god she lived in the 60s. back when you did not have to be a pretty person to sing it would have been a waste of talent

  • @tryby12 you make a very good point if she lived during this day in age things probally would not be the same and she would not have been as much as a talented singer as she could have been she would still be the same beautiful person though ;)

  • i dont care she was a beautiful  person

  • Fantastic! :))

  • that voice! so sweet :)

  • adele was the next mama cass just saying

  • @mike96m27 the hell she aint.

  • @mike96m27 Amen!

    

  • Beautiful

  • I dream a little dream every night... ;)

  • I think anybody celebrating this woman is endorsing morbid obesity

  • @thickmass22 All the chicken grease lubed up her vocal cords. Can't have the good without the bad, folks.

  • @jig0ku Wow yer funy eh... so smert iz yer brane youse er...

  • Oh boy do I love this song :)

  • Face? weight? It's the voice and delivery that counts.

  • Her voice has always relaxed me....... Cass has class.....

  • wish there were more singers like Mama Cass... :|

  • excellent voice

  • It does not matter if it was serious or not. It is not and never will be a funny joke. To make little of a death is sad. Her death was sad because we lost a beautiful singer with a beautiful voice.

  • Mama Cass FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • She's was beautiful!!!  Too bad this generation can't meet the standard that she set in talent!

  • Lovely 

  • Lovely

  • Mama Cass has the most gentle famine version of this song- I have to say it's the best, you go Sweet heart!

  • what ever happened to mama Cass Elliot?

  • @jimbob5599 She died in 1974 at 32 years old.

  • @jimbob5599 Ham Sandwich

  • @wazzo80 NO NO SHE DIDNT CHOCK ON A HAM SANDWHICH DO YOUR RESEARCH SHE HAD A HEART ATTACK :( DONT SPREAD THE HAM SANDWHICH BULL BECAUSE THATS HOW SOME PEOPLE REMEMBER HER WITH HER AMAZING VOICE

  • @ferfer18AG lol as if I was serious, they even made a joke about it in Austin Powers. I think your caps key is stuck on too. Chill out, make me a sammich! She'll always be remembered as the FAT ARSE with the great voice.

  • even though i was never born near when she was at her prime (im 18 btw) I LOVE HER SONGS!!

  • So effortless.

  • LOL Oops' Beatiful!!??,Y'all know what i mean.

  • Mama Cass=Beautiful Voice,Beatiful Person

  • Back when music was good!

  • wonderful!!!!!!!

  • Fantastic!

  • Awesome song, although if ima be dreaming of her it wont be no little dream lol

  • Awesome song! She was such an amazing singer! :)

  • The 3 dislikes are because of her weight. But let me tell all of these sick fucks. She has more talent in her pinky toe than you do in your entire body.

    Mama Cass <3

  • @LlamaSaysOink a true songbird

  • @freeken7 : She was musically my MAMA and I'll never ever forget her.

    She's so mellow and sweet and soft and she smells so well....MAMA...

  • @LlamaSaysOink ...How do you know it's because of her weight? They could be trolls, or just people with a different taste in music. Maybe they disliked the skip in the middle or that it didn't play the whole song. That you automatically assumed it was about her weight makes you more conscious of it than those anonymous people that disliked. You couldn't say something like "4 people who disliked don't dream"? Her voice is beautiful and it's what I came for. I don't see why anything else matters.

  • @ChoPayne I looked back at this comment and I realized I sound stupid. I posted this a month ago.

    But I know at least one is because someone is stupid and decided to dislike for her weight.

    And I didn't say "4 people who disliked don't dream" because I wanted to make a point that it doesn't matter. I didn't want to be exactly the same as everyone who wanted to be "Top Comment".

    In fact, I'm a bit pissed that I'm top comment. ._.

    I just wanted to make a point.

  • @LlamaSaysOink Cass Elliott didn't need any autotune that's for sure!

  • He weight has nothing to do with her talent! What a beautiful and powerful voice she had.

  • @jkalin196511 I realize this. I was saying that. ._.

    Damn, how easily things get misconstrued on the internet.

    I was saying the only dislikes are because they don't like her weight, because people think good music only counts if you're "hot".

    And I was saying I disagreed.

  • @LlamaSaysOink I love her music! I would rather listen to her than the crap that's out today. Make You Own Kind Of Music is my favorite. Hell, I even like the song Different from the H. R. Pufnstuff movie, LOL.

  • @LlamaSaysOink Whoa, take it easy. Are you carbohydrate challenged as well?

  • @SeraphimSword Dude, as I said before: I posted this two months ago. ._.

  • Wish she had left us with more of her beautiful songs, what a great voice!

  • What a beautiful voice

  • We miss you Cass Elliot.

  • PERFECT IN EVERY WAY

  • i hate that cut

  • I was born in the early 70s.....Ray Stevens had his own show? And I thought I knew all about those variety shows. Hmmm....you learn something new every day.

  • No.

  • ahhh, the good ol' days... when looks doesn't count for shit and talent is a reason for being well known...

  • @TheJamile you dont have to be conventionally good looking to be successful if you have the talent... just look at adele. the UK's number one star at the moment and is similar to mama cass in style and appearance.

  • There's a cut in the middle which screws the song :-/

  • great singer

    

  • Ecco questa la versione che preferisco....

  • @ Jay because for some people, ignorance really is bliss.

  • She was beautiful and incredibly talented. <3

  • beautiful singer ..beautiful woman.

  • BBW dreams!

  • Beautiful!

  • I love her.

  • Mama Cass youre still an inspiration to all us big girls <3

  • The only thing Mama Cass ever dreamed about was the all you can eat buffet

  • aaron..i love the way your hair waves....waves goodbye to your head that is!!! ya bald headed freak! she was a beautiful looking talented lady...

  • There's two tents on the stage! Guess which one has the ham sandwich?

  • @aaronredcat and it wasn't from a Ham sandwich you twit, she had a drug overdose. But becuz she was so well liked, or had a really good press agent, it was planted that she choked on a ham sandwich. One of the great female singers ever. She would never make it today without losing 300 lbs, and that is truly sad and speaks true of what Americans and the world value today. Live on Mama Cass see ya on the other side.

  • @sparti47fan I disagree,I believe she would me famous with her size.Take Adele for example,shes over weight but still selling out venues and topping charts...Just an opinion.I can't find anything about her autopsy,except that nothing was found in her windpipe meaning she didnt choke.I want to know what drugs she was doing to overdose.

  • @BluntShortFilms She didnt overdose! She went on a crash diet and her heart gave out because she was malnoureshed....THATS A FACT!!!

  • @sparti47fan Cass Elliot did not die from a drug overdose. She had a heart attack/heart failure. Autopsy report found no drugs in her system.

  • Damn you just forget how really good she could sing. What a tragedy she was lost at such a young age

  • Amo essa música!!!

  • beautifull :(

  • There would never have been The Mamas and Papas with Mama Cass Elliot.

  • RIP, this lady could sing Wow that a voice what a shame she is is gone

  • Very Very Cool, The Good Ol Days~!~!~!~!~

  • Bravo Miss Cass

  • What a voice !!

  • I love her voice she was a great singer thank you very much for sharing this.

    ;)

  • Love her dress!

  • @Poppenhuis slimming isn't it?

  • Thank Beautiful Thing for introducing me to Cass Elliot.

  • @Ieatpancakeseveryday I don't know if that was meant to be rude, but what the hell? Screw you.

  • @Ieatpancakeseveryday hahahahahahahahahahahahaha amazing !

  • Tonight was the first time I had seen what Cass Elliot looked like. This is meant with the utmost sincerity: I wish music producers would look for artists like this now instead of big breasted, small waisted glamour girls with voices which lets face it all sound alike. If their voice is great go with it, good looks are just a minor plus, I can't appreciate a beautiful woman when I'm listening to her on my ipod.

  • @jcswheatley You are so right. Talent has nothing to do with the music stars of today. It's all about being young, skinny, and very good looking. For the males and females. That's why the music out today is such crap. I want to listen to great songs by wonderful singers. I don't care what they look like.

  • @debjean63 why do people talk...without actually knowing....really..???? being young skinny and very good looking... that's today's music? 

  • @jcswheatley Err - have you seen Adele?

  • @jcswheatley - Bravo, you took the words right out of my mouth.

  • Comment removed

  • @jcswheatley It was not about the style, but rather the substance. Mama Cass was so beautiful in so many ways that the modern musical Matrix of money and mongery could never understand. The sincerity, the honesty, the humanity that was exuded in these former times of music leaves us today "sad and cold, all alone."

  • @jcswheatley fuck up and stop whining about how eveything today sucks.

    Adele's pretty fat anyhow

  • @jcswheatley how about adele? :)

  • I wish she was wearing a bikini

    Mama Cass is so hot

  • Is this song from Henry Mancini?

  • @hhm28061953 No. Written in 1931 and first recorded by Ozzie Nelson, bandleader and father to Ricky Nelson and grandfather to The Nelsons.

  • MAMM CASS:;;;;;; is just :MORE to LOVE

  • thanks will try) i do love her music

  • Bela voz!!

  • How brilliant is she on this? Completely changes your view of what is IT! and the answer is simple - it's not about how beautiful or attractive you are -- No, no no.. - It's about how well you can sing, and make the notes have sex with the listener instead!!!

  • Love this song!!

  • God I wish I had HALF her talent! <3
