Claudine Longet - Nothing to lose (from The Party movie)

[laffge]

Right on! Claudine is excellent!! Not one can say differently!!

[karlbright]

Birdie num num

[freefallmiami]

Creada por Henry Mancini, no hace falta decir más bella canción, con reminiscencias a Moon River.

[marcel911]

I wonder if Spider Sabich liked this song?

[ivanbocalon]

Claudine Longet - linda de morrer, literalmente !

Era uma femea fatal, a história mostra isto, de verdade !

Nada se comprovou, porém, sempre ficou dúvidas !

Contudo, uma bela mulher, uma linda cantora, bem femea, mesmo !!!

Hoje, já na casa dos 70 anos, deve contiunuar bem charmosa !

Funny thing, that this live recording is lots better than the studio recording. Great song, touching voice, hilarious movie.

[hmabboud]

Absolutely stunning :) I love her looks, voice and everything about her



[Mickagume]

I wish someone would post the instrumental of this tune from the movie...really beautiful

[Mickagume]

Classic Mancini music... There was no one else like him.

[vaadaenmacchi]

@Mickagume yes sir!

[Poopaloo55]

2:12....too funny!! Claudine Longet seems to be struggling with her composure at times...and no wonder!

[Wizdome1]

LOL! Sellers is a comic genius!

[hmabboud]

@Wizdome1 TRUE :)

[luardesa]

Do tempo em que não era só dar pro Diretor pra aparecer no Filme. Um pouquinho de talento se fazia necessário. Ainda mais, pra contracenar com um " monstro " como Peter Sellers. E.... Charme.

[Ninshitsu]

A real life femme fatale.

[hot5pur11]

Claudine Longet has such a dreamy voice........

[cheturowat]

SHE WAS THE PERFECT COMBINATION for this movie, the beauty and the funny character of Sellers. I still believe this is the funniest movie I've ever seen...

[Fagottron]

God damn! This sounds amazing compared to the VHS version I used to have. It's even in stereo. Just lovely.

[Nonattients]

I'm trying to figure this out on guitar. Obviously, the guitar part in this scene has been dubbed. Nothing too helpful on the internet that I could find. Lost in complex jazz chords once again!

[hazele1958]

I love you claudine and you are so beautiful

[SeaPrince10]

I asked my friend tried to play this on guitar with little success. I can't tell what notes she's playing...

[UberSecret]

Perhaps she has always been a sociopathic psycho killer; the ideal profile being -- qu'est-ce que c'est -- the sweet quiet type?

[Sleeko11]

She's so cute, so sweet... OH.. Shortly after this movie was shot, dear Claudine was sent to prison for shooting and killing her lover,

[RubHerSoul1]

I heard about that in an unreleased Rolling Stones song called Claudine.

[piemaster474]

hey its mister pink panther

[tuxguys]

Do none of you really get the point of the scene? It's a purposefully sappy, vapid, LENGTHY tune, sung by an oblivious starlet, which just keeps going on and on and on while the Peter Sellers character is trying desperately to go into the bathroom without seeming rude.

It's not supposed to be good, it's supposed to be trivial and insipid... the way you are all celebrating this silly tune, and her ridiculous voice, tells me that you've all been had.

[tomtowle]

Do you really feel comfortable exposing your lack of musical understanding and boredom? Please post a video with your incredible talented voice so we can appreciate how you can call hers "ridiculous". Also, please share your original songs so we are all able to know the difference between one that is "silly" and one that is classy and serious.

People have only been "had" if they waste time like I am on your commentary. Yeah, you get the point...but in doing so missed the gist. Her voice is fine

[tuxguys]

This, too, is a put-on, right? You're joking, right?

[moceanu]

@tomtowle kill yourself

[mikeyzyoo]

yee u have a point its a scene from the moviee which was hilarious But u gotta realize shes a beauty and her voice is beautiful 2 so fuk u

[tuxguys]

Yeah, I'm really going to pay attention to the aesthetic opinion of someone who spells a four-letter word with THREE letters...

[mikeyzyoo]

atleast im not some 40 year old who lives with his mom

[tuxguys]

Of course you're not... you're 21...

But it's ok, you'll have a place of your own some day, hang in there!

[ColtraneTaylor]

You've outed yourself as the dimwit. Just because Sellers needs to take a piss, doesn't mean the interaction between him and Longet was vapid. And she happens to be a famous and influential singer even if she is doing a 'comedic' scene. The lyrics of the song itself relate to what Sellers and she are going through.

[tuxguys]

Man, you rock! You really had me going there, I had to read your comment three times before I realized you were putting me on! Brilliant! Yours is a comedic genius that rivals S. J. Perelman, Christopher Guest, and Sellers himself! I bet everybody else that reads your comment before they read my response will be taken in by it too! As one who loves a dry wit, I am in awe of your comic sense! The Monty Python guys have nothing on you!

[ColtraneTaylor]

Whoa is that teh sarcasm?? I'm totally like pwned! You da man! Like totally! Dude!

[amateurpiano]

she is nasty, i like that

[sebastianopaopa]

I never heard about Claudine Longet before and then i saw this movie and she was so stunning...The funny thing is that i was just listening Dimitris From Paris's - Sacrebleu and there is a track that kinda remind me her, and i was right it was her alright.. unforgettable song =}

[alexsummer2007]

is it a kind of bossa nova?.

[951hemet]

Thanks so much!!!!

[951hemet]

i want the lyrics??

cant find them on the internet.

anyone??

[JWGervexare]

Well, that never solved anything in the past, but I get your point about John Lennon.

Paul

[nationalconey]

This is where you need John Belushi to walk on screen and smash the guitar over her head.

[ColtraneTaylor]

I take it that Belushi is your some kind of teen idol. How rebellious.

[aeer1961]

Where does she live? I have not heard nothing about this girl in years.

[RAMWER23]

Claudine,

Que Dieu vous bénisse aujourd'hui et toujours.

God blesses you, today and always.

Que Deus a abençoe, hoje e sempre.

[0laila]

She also left Williams, who supported her throughout the whole thing to take off with her attorney ... how does a girl so sweet TURN INTO THAT? lol!

[TheBeckam]

one of my favorite movies

[astrografika]

You guys all know she whacked her husband, right?

[cheturowat]

Didn't know that... tell us the story...

[melco20]

Remember Spider Sabich

[Nyxie777]

She can't even carry a tune, much less have a voice to carry out of tune.

[poly88888888]

Great movie, great song

[cheturowat]

Beautiful woman, Was she really that tender or was it her character for the movie? This is the funniest movie I've ever seen...

[chocolatelabfilms]

hey, we can't hear you over the guitar! can you sing louder?

just kidding. go claudine!

[sebaaastian13]

Does someone know how can i find this on cd? I mean, this version - I know there is an old vinyl single ...

[alistaircrat]

dimitri from paris has a cd called sacrebleu. If you go on ebay you will get a copy. i think its a studio recording of the same song. Its top quality anyway.

[quetepareceseba]

Hermosa pelicula, Hermosa cancion, Hermosa ella.

[jamieh1974]

I wish they'd release THIS version on the soundtrack instead of the terrible one they did

[francochan]

I respect opinions...but I must say that the album version wasn't at all terrible. In fact, Mancini's album version is simply a more robust and heavily-arranged version; in no way terrible. Just different. But this version is indeed my favorite between the two.

[jamieh1974]

Yes , I was being flippant I am sure. Most things Mancini touches are golden and the album version is fine - i just wish they'd included this version on it too. Much like Moonriver/Hepburn - there's something wonderful about a breathy voice.

The same goes for the 'valley of the dolls' and 'wait until dark' - the versions from the films are rarely released and ought to be

[francochan]

I agree. Even "Two for the Road" has some tracks edited from the theatrical soundtrack. Or take Bacharach's Butch Cassidy soundtrack...many of the film versions of the songs don't appear on the released LP/CD. Perhaps it was deemed some sort of a bonus during that era to have a different version on the album release. Incentive to go buy a ticket perhaps? Or in our case, the DVD!

[cjk592]

Beautiful, beautiful! Claudine, where have you gone :(

[urap]

Ang ganda taraga

[hxc4328]

Beautiful movie, beautiful song

[Dannysmiricky]

Classico... :)

[concatoa]

une merveille !
