I read an article years ago in which Petula was interviewed and remember one of the things she commented on was that she did housework NUDE,!! OMG the IMAGE,!!! Beautiful classy lady,beautifully singing a beautiful song.
Charlie Chaplin! Was für ein gottbegnadetes Genie! Neben all seinen Meisterwerken auch noch das. Legionen von hauptberuflichen (und guten) Musikern haben niemals dieses Niveau erreicht. Er konnte nicht mal Noten lesen!
One of the finest vocalist of those wonderful days that have gone by, and yet so rich and pleasant to the ears of those who understand the beautiful melody/harmony of the song.
A DELICIOUS Rendition......With French included,......Sounds even better that way at the entry. Cut off abruptly at the end. Otherwise...lots of goose flesh as in 1968 for me,, so in love,...then. Now I`m searching for that French Entry. Thats for home only, private Karaoke.
I'm just getting it...Pet was a link to the romantic music of the mid-century, music that soothed the greatest generation. She was smack dab in the middle of the baby-boomers.
right on, today's female screamers, i mean singers need to sit and watch TRUE classic great singing and then look at themselves in the mirror and be embarassed!
Beautiful woman - so ladylike. I love her face, I love her hair, love her mini, love the earrings, love her stage moves, love her respectful introduction: "Words and music by Charles Chaplin"
She's the bee's knees! And the song is charming in the extreme, too.
auch für alte Säcke wie mich gibt es was zu sehen und zu hören, und das ganze ohne Senioren-Computer-Lehrgang.
Petula ist eine der größten, aber wie will man werten, wenn so wie ich auch andere, Cilla Black, Dusty Springfield mögen. Es war eine wunderbare Zeit und oder trotz Rock*nRoll ich hatte und brauchte alles zusammen. This Is My Song
Yes, Petula was the definition of class. She has a wonderful voice...and I just LOVE her songs...they were a big part of my fond memories of growing up in the sixties!
English version is excellent by Petula and Engelbert but the French version is where the feelings touch your heart even though you may not understand it.
Speaking of class... she had to be persuaded by her label to do this song, as she thought it was trash. Not that this should take anything from the song though. Love Petula, but for this one song, Chaplin must take all praise.
Just got back from Las Vegas, where Petula did this song, among many others. What a class act. How delighted I was to relive a bit of the British invasion. The lady's still got it!
Petula was so Pretty and that Voice! I had a crush on her at fifteen ('65) and have loved her to this day. I got to meet and talk to her many times.........Some of my Dreams came true, I am so lucky. I will always Love The Lady : )
our female pop stars just reflect back to us the ugly side of how we honor the feminine and women in society. Of course some 17yo virgin/whore of a singer is what we like as ugly as it is, they dont knoe class as in the old world becuase we live in a.........(dramatic sound) brave new world:)
maybe some of the trashbags of today the so called female singers lol should sit their asses down and watch this.. THIS is the definition of CLASS.. they could never compare to this
@mjt5050 Yeah, and #1 on your list of trashbags of today would be that twat Christina Aguillera that butchered the national anthem at the SuperBowl last night. What a disgrace to her generation--and the entire nation. I'm pretty sure if we had Pet Clark sing the anthem (if ONLY!), she'd bother to learn the words.
This is absolute perfection! Pet is young, beautiful, stunning attire, beautiful hair, nice suntan, A#1 song, and her delivery is spectacular. It just doesn't get any better than this. Anyone for a remake?? Forget it. How can you top this!!!
The Beauty the style if only that kind of music and performance would return in today's world. With all the music I love and listen to this song sung by Petula Clark is my #1 favorite!
It should be no surprise that Charles Chaplin wrote this since he also wrote the classics "Smile" and "Eternally." You owe it to yourself to hear them -- wonderful stuff.
Wow this sends shiver down my spine, the good old days flood back. Such a beautiful song, I've always loved Petula Clark but this is the first time i ever heard her sing it this way. thank you so much for sharing x x x x
Just a beautiful melody sung by the beautiful Miss Clark!!!! I miss songs like this. Charlie Chaplin? Who knew? "Smile" and this song? You go Sir Chaplin!
I love this song very much special the first part which seems singing in Spanish. It would be much appreciated if someone can provide the lyrics of above mentione Spanish. Thank you in advance. Charles
I agree, my friend. This is one of those songs that evoke Romance even in mystical languages that can only be understood with the heart. The first part is in French - and I see that Fritz has posted the French lyrics. Click on to "more info" next to his photo. I almost failed French in school, and I understand only a few of the beautiful words, so I will pass this task of translation on to another YouTuber. Welcome to the YouTube Family, Charles!
You are very welcome, Charles. Most folks on YouTube are anxious to help another member of "The Family." Warm regards to you and to the fine folks on Taiwan! Timmo/USA
Superb diction, belle canto feeling combined which is often mutually exclusive or creates a blandness... Petula Clarks singing always kept the emotive force throughout... really great popular singing here...
What a great post. I've never seen this Hollywood Palace appearance by Pet in colour before. She looks great, and how about that mod 60's dress she's wearing?!! Plus she actually singing live! Wow! What a concept!
