@krrwasser I think it has a lot to do with the idea that it is exactly how life should still be. I mean let's honest - people knew their place, and worked hard to be the best they can be in everything - not just one thing. But they knew their boundaries. Now we push our boundaries too far, and set ourselves up for failure - crushing our own stratospheric dreams. In the day and age of Mad Men, dreams were realistic, and a picket fence was never too far away.
@krrwasser - It's OH so much more than JUST a soap opera. Matthew Weiner's anal attention to detail, the songs (like this), the dialogue, the actors' performances, the wardrobe... But I'm with you, can't wait for the new season.
i watched the emmys 2010 year in drama and for the 10 sec scene from Mad Men 2x13 i get shocked and i decided to watch it all seasons and daaaaaang so freaking good that Mad Men is, i love it and the OST is AWESOMEEE
Thank you for uploading this! I was watching the New Amsterdam episode of Mad Men when this played at the closing of that episode. Being a native New Yorker I had to find it and post it on my FB page.
@rafaelscreative That episode of Mad Men was my introduction to Ella Fitzgerald singing 'Manhattan.' As much as I like Dinah Washington's version, it can't compare Ella's.
This is a sixteen year old highschooler listening! You are awesome Ella! Only if more younger people like me listen to this more than Chris Brown. This is real romantic music.
@Provocauteur Thank you...what would we do without music....or what would we be without music..nothing me thinks..but thank you for your comment. all the best
I'll be there in June!!!! Manhattan here I come

Something about this song is so inspiring. All the big-band music, Ella and Frankie especially, really make me want to be somebody.
How appropriate for a show like Mad Men.
