[Ildah]

I remember my mother singing this when I was very young.Always wondered where it came from,thanks for posting.

[scottlarry]

I love those high colortura notes she she can hit....I use to sing them when I was younger while watching these as a child.

[mnpgh]

You are right, a class act!!

[lovetheoldies100]

I bought Anchors Aweigh -Gene Kelly and Kathryn are magic! together

[mnpgh]

@lovetheoldies100 Thanks for the reply, I enjoyed as well.

An angel if ever I saw and heard one.

[hajune]

I did autograph shows in the 80's - 90's. I did one with Kathryn and Howard Keel. Believe me they were both class acts. KG was an accomplished actress also. She could not dance though and they/she laughed( rehearsal) in the Showboat scene in which she was suppossed to do a little dance. She had a great sense of humor. She did not take herself seriously and wanted to be just a "regular guy'. She treated all her fans as equals. She always sent back autographs pictures when she was asked via mail.

[CeliaMutation]

Wasn't she just a lovely lovely woman? Bags more charisma, talent and natural beauty than a truckload of today's female "stars". I still cherish the memory of watching this movie as a 10- year old one Saturday afternoon on the BBC in the early 1970s. Magical. Thank you Kathryn. RIP

[jotahuene]

@CeliaMutation Kathryn, my eternal love! ahhhhhhhhhhh I am 75 years old so envy me, guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I saw her films in their premieres!!! in the 1940's and 50's. all through the time I have not ceased to admire her, even today!!!!!!!!!!

[Godsislove12]

She sings operatic notes which is not the typical soprano notes and most people can not sing like that only those who are trained to sing like that can. It is very hard to do that without making your voice crack because the natural singer can not sing such a high note like she did.

[mnpgh]

One in a million!!! RIP.

[hajune]

Maybe one in a billion

[mca1218]

OMG-- MGM Technicolor was something to behold back then!! And the beautiful Kathryn Grayson was the perfect subject for it. RIP, my dear.

[hajune]

An angel has returned back to heaven. Thank you Kathryn for graces us with your beauty, both inner and outer. You were the best.

[papoocanada]

curiously she had strabismus,one eye looked left while the other looked right... didnt stop her career, made her rather lovely........but when did she sing at the Met if she did ??

[papoocanada]

its a fake song , as Hollywood would do........its a string piece by Tchaikovsky: they have added words to it

[enteveros1981]

RIP Kathryn - you were a true lady of class and grace x

[Chelle8224]

her voice gives me chills...she was very talented lady...

[1simaddict1]

RIP ms grayson THank you

[picturefan2009]

Thank you for all your wonderful contributions to the world of art Ms. Grayson and goodbye...

[amy24sm]

to bad they dont make woman wit class and grace anymore. the young woman we have today just run around killing their babies.

[TomCollinsgirl]

@amy24sm they do make people with class and grace, they just dont get the attention they need to

[daughterrevolution]

RIP. She died in her sleep on Feb. 17th.

[hajune]

Happy 88th Kathyrn. ( Feb 9th)

 Not only was she the most beautiful person who ever graced the screen but she had an even better voice!! Was a classy and humble person off the stage.

[Johnmark524]

Not only is she beautiful but she has a beautful & gifted voice!!!

[oLdSkOoLkisS]

Being former Navy....this is one of my favorite films - i have seen several times.I never get tired of this performance.Her high notes could break glass i bet!

[ElliePearl]

Why can you not have singers like this in movies anymore?

[chipsotool]

what a voice ya dont  hear or see tallent like that anymore .

[sawyermac20]

Sarah Brightman (and any other opera divas) eat your heart out!!!!!!!!!

[pict18]

Simply superb!

[gnsback]

As I've said before, she is/was among the loveliest women in show biz and history, itself, was a class act, carried herself as a lady, had the voice of an angel.

I wonder if she enjoyed knowing that when she arrived on a set it was probably like when Gene Tierney did. They said for all practical purposes every else could just as well go home for every eye was on her, Gene, but I'm sure it was like that with Kathryn, too. What a gal!

[nectenorboi09]

Absolutely phenomenal! They really don't make 'em like this in Hollywood any more - listen to that clean attack on that final high F sharp! Phew, I don't think any of our modern day coloratura stars could have pulled that off so well and with such effortless charm...
