YES MARIA...THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS GEM.. I'VE LISTENED TO THIS SEVERAL TIMES JUST IN PAST HOUR...IS THIS ON AN ALBUM? IF SO WHICH ONE? (CARSON IS HOLDING UP AN ALBUM, I ZIPPED THROUGH MY COLLECTION & DIDN'T THINK I SAW THAT ONE) LET ME KNOW IF YOU CAN..THIS IS PERFECTION AT IT'S FINEST!! Jane in Ohio
So simple, so beautifully sung. Many so called singers should watch Mr M and learn. You don't have to shout to give feeling to a song just feel every word!! Long may he continue to give us quality performances such as this.
Have just watched this again. I don't know how many times I have come back to it. He sings the song with so much emotion. If only he would record it, so that we could play it over and over on a CD. Love It!!!
I have every album J.M. did but this song I must admit I had never heard it before. But you can believe I put it on my favorites list. Absolutely beautiful. All of you J.M. fans, pass it on
Beautiful in it's simplicity, this song is a worthy showcase for the amazing voice of Johnny Mathis.Why,oh why, has it never surfaced on an album? A gem. Thank you,Maria.
Okay another song I've never heard before I played it on YouTube. I only have sixty albums. Guess I missed more than I know of really good songs. And done magnificently by a man with the most beautiful voice. And I've loved Johnny Mathis over fifty years now. And the song is not as simple as it sounds.
I have loved Johnny since he sang in a local cinema in British Guiana before he was big name. His voice remains as magic as that long ago concert. He should have been honored by his country long ago.
Hey if any of Johnny's PR staff ever scroll thru YouTube-maybe you can suggest that Johnny sing this song at his upcoming concert at the NJ Performing Arts Center in April 2010 -better yet have him record it-the way it was sung that night in Houston with Gill.
Then you had to be there in 1983 at a concert in Houston where Johnny sang this only accompanied by his guitarist Gil Reigers-it has taken me 26 years to hear this song again as he never recorded it-it's been a great anniversary present!!!
This beautiful song was also recorded by Don McClean, who, in my opinion, was much more suited for this song. It can be found on the now out-of-print lp "Greatest Hits - Then and Now" from 1987. It's well worth finding. Don McClean just tears this song up. Very few artists could revise a song and actually do it better. Don McClean did this a number of times i.e.; "Crying", "Since I don't have you", to name a couple. His version of "But she loves me" is simply beautiful.
There is absolutely NO ONE on earth who can sing a song the way Johnny does. His voice is timeless and he sings every song as though he wrote it - with such emotion - have loved him from the moment I first heard him in 1957.
With no unnecessary gestures, Johnny is completely composed, perfectly focused on the lyrics as he thrills us once more with his voice. Every word and syllable is distinct and we love him again just as Johnny Carson applauds . Wonder how many times he has been guest on this show. I am wild about JM . It is my honor to favorite this video , thanks to you Rebel you. XOXO
Thanks to 19rebel57 for this sweet song in the very sweet voice of Johnny !!! How wonderful listening it, even when he never recorded it!! Thank you so much!!
There are no words to fully express or do justice to the wonder of Johnny Mathis. Thank you for yet another gem in your treasure box of Johnny videos 19rebel57.
I remember so well the night he performed this on The Johnny Carson Show. It was so touching. I had never heard the song before but no one can do it justice the way Johnny can. Pure Mathis Magic! Thanks 19Rebel57!
No one compares to Johnny Mathis when it comes to singing such a beautiful song as this one. He's the absolute best. Fantastic video. Thanks for sharing this one rebel.
"One of my favorites with Johhny singing with emotion that makes one feel the emotion with which he sings. I can't wait to see him gain next month. Thanks for sharing
Another inspiring video of the finest singing performer in my life time. Thank you so much 19Rebel57 for you are the best in what you do for Johnny here for I too have been a very loyal Fan since 1957 also.
Every time Johnny Mathis steps up to the microphone, he hits a home run. Every time 19rebel57 posts a video on youtube, she hits a home run. What we have here is a double Grand Slam. Thanks rebel for providing the very best videos.
OH MY GOODNESS, what a TREASURE, 19rebel57 you have shared today, this beautiful song that John never recorded. It sure pulled at my heart strings, thank you so much as always for giving us the very best of Johnny Mathis.
