@thepeacecat You should, she's probably on-of-a-kind, or 1 in 7 billion. Now all we need is a few more of these classy, sophisticated women for likewise men, like us who've looked her version up.
She's what they refered to as a "dish" back in the 60's....never knew who she was till I ran across this video while searching for this song...I was born in the 60's...
@Omar2788 Bikinis were pretty common by 1964. Remember all those beach movies with Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello? Miniskirts were still a couple of years away, though. But Julie London would have looked sexy in a T-shirt and jeans.
Julie was at first reluctant to get on stage back in 1954 - I´m glad she did. The ones that want to become "big stars" and "idols" never amount to anything! The recorded version of this has an amazing arrangement.
when women were women, proud to be women and acted like women with all their sexy feminine beauty not needing to act like men or believe they were somehow cheated, had to compete with men for "maleness" or held back by being a woman - wearing a dress was a wonderful thing!
@nazhiker ....you are so right....they gloried in being feminine...where all the real power is....women of today have just lost their way to high charm
@nazhiker and in reality by throwing out our femininity we gave up most of our power. God created a good balance....I can cry and a woman won't bat an eyelash...I can cry to my husband or nearly any other male and get what I want because they can't stand to see a woman cry..I have no problem using what granny's generation called our "feminine wiles"
It is jazz kinda, I mean it's sorta a double time bossa/ samba thing, but I mean it was the 60's, it was a genre that was on a rise and thanks to Stan Getz, It reached main stream, So I guess it's jazz =_=
A whole bunch of Julie's as-yet-to-be-released-on-CD albums (indcluding some that already have been) are being released by EMI Japan in record-like-paper-sleeves on July 31, 2010!!!!! Including "Send For Me", "Easy Does It", "You Don't Have To Be a Baby to Cry" and "With Body and Soul"!!!! I am in heaven....I love her so...
I used to think that Tina Louise was ripping off Marilyn Monroe with her character on Gilligan's Island, now I know that she was, without a doubt, actually basing it on Julie London.
hot gal, great song but I never have liked big bands because they sound so corny. They sound like they want to sound "cool", "hip" or whatever the jargon is now... a trio or a quartet would have been better but she sure was a looker.
I've been listening to and playing jazz since the mid fifties, but I don't remember her being so good -- I always connect her with "Cry Me a River" and didn't realize that she's a great jazz singer -- great voice.
It's too bad Julie never sang on that show. They could have done an episode about the black market in human organs -- and she could have sung "Buy Me a Liver."
Wonderful song, wonderful woman. One of the sultriest and sexiest songbirds ever. Julie, I love you. If you ever need 'mood' music for a romantic evening, play Julie London.
I remember julie london from the early 60's as the Marlboro girl i knew she was a singer. In the 70's her and husband bobby Troupe (what a lucky guy he was) were on Emergency. Julie was one beautiful, HOT AND VERY VERY SEXY WOMAN she is one of my all time favourite women she's gone but not forgotton by many of us.
2 things-a friend from highschool's mom was good friends with her, and my brother's friend's grandmother was her housekeeper--and here's #3-the lovely miss London was the official hostess when newport beach's fashion island opened in 1967-the theme was 'flight to adventure...
Beautiful. This Version sounds like it came from Snazzy Jazz Club where everyone is in their New Sunday Suits on a Tuesday Night around Midnight Slowly Drinking and enjoying the beautiful Night. amazing. Fly me to the Moon Respect the Classics. P.S. I agree do they have a Dvd of all her hits. I would love to watch this song forever!
I have all my fathers original albums on quality vinyl in storage, many by Julie London but never listened to them. Always thought she was only a stage act. WOW, was I wrong!?!?
First class and right up there with Sarah and Ella. Where can we find a beautiful female singer like this today? Have seen Diana Krall live up close once, a small pub in Toronto 1996. That is about as close to a real beautiful female jazz singer that we can experience today. -Mark, Artist-Astronomer, Portland Oregon
Correcting my previous post, I meant to say Julie appeared in the film 'The Girl Can't help it' in a dream sequence, not 'Will Success spoil Rock Hunter'. Hopefully more footage from her TV specials will be available on DVD in the future.
How beautiful is Julie London here, and a great uptempo standard that she did better than anyone. She is just so SEXY. Does anyone else think she looks like Ginger (Tina Louise) from Gilligan's Island here?
@harrietcraig, I instantly thought the same thing. Could it be they were imagining Julie when they created that role? I must say, that I only knew Julie as "Dixie" in one of my favorite shows as a kid. I had never realized her awesome talent as a singer.
She is so glamorous and sexy, this is stunning to see. I have so much of her on CD but little visually, apart from 'Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter'. She herself thought her voice was thin, and she was sometimes underrated, I can't explain why. I have her live CD and she is just wonderful. Julie, you ARE wonderful. A classy dame for sure.
A real lady and what a voice today its sometimes so cheap they think that they can sing but must have it from the looks and then they look like xxxx won't say that word here but think you no what I mean.
