Ella Fitzgerald - Love Is Here To Stay

[1deborahsf]

Por mais efêmero que possa ter parecido, veio para ficar, e esperar. Talvez não justamente aqui, mas em algum outro lugar.

[salwatching]

To Balen3 - AWESOME to have numbers behind your name - and really - are you any different in your own self than when these great songs were first in the air? My body (and maybe yours too!) begins to disappoint the expectations, but my mind, heart and soul are able to appreciate the good things in life --- like Ella :)

Enjoy your day!

[ABALLAM3]

Ella Fitzgerald and Nat King Cole rule this song! No one can compare and it is one of those rare occasions where I really like the song sung by two different, though fine singers.

[bellini7verdi]

el encanto de esta mujer es como en la opera el de joan sutherland.............siempre eternas.......gobernando la voz......a modo de noria embaucadora.......sobre todo contexto vocal........es un sonido .....simplemente embriagador.......a ella fitzgerald....que si billi holiday...a joan que si si callas........pero al final........ambas....son unos monstruos indestructibles........imposib­les de comparar.......

[MrLloydro]

gershwin genius and prodigy singer, two forces to be reckoned with

[sfmac313]

Ella singing my favorite Gershwin tune with the very best arranger of his time, what could be better?

[SoyYoDel79]

simplemente H E R M O S O !

quiero llorar...

[adogcall]

[scocody]

[runhorun]

Love this song

[nbonato]

C'mon... Anyone here wanna know if you're a teen or not. Just shut up and listen to the music.

[Bhaijani]

What is a beautiful song ,a Classic by Ella.

The song flows flawlessly with emotions .a pleasure each time you listen to it.

So many other singer played this song but no comparison with Ella.

[YusufAlaseeri]

I am convinced I'm the only one below the age of 20 who listens to her... such a shame...

[liliisa88]

@YusufAlaseeri your not the only onee!!! 

[ellahaber]

@YusufAlaseeri i'm 13 :)

[northwestsingin345]

@YusufAlaseeri 15 and have loved her forever! <3

[inmyheartdwellsmusic]

@YusufAlaseeri be assured you are not. :) I turn 21 in less than a month, but have loved Ella Fitzgerald, Frank SInatra, etc, etc, etc for years and years - ever since I was a little girl, thanks to my parents. I also have friends my age who love their music, too. However, I will agree with you that more young people should listen to and love these true musicians. This is music and artistry, not the rubbish one usually finds on the radio.

[carlosc1dbz]

Tina Aldana is singing this song today. She is so good.

[smkz1000]

dedicated to mali... not implying anything... simply because the song is as beautiful as she...

[mildlad]

beautiful. brings back lovely memories. sigh!

[Mrphatbastard1]

Ella seems to own any song she sings and does it sooooo effortlessly, like she's not even trying!!! I just love her.

[ninechannel1]

☮ A song that 's here for ever , thanks for this wonderful Ella's version ☮

[abigaileaton1]

when ella sings i hear my mother singing happy memories my favourite is indian summer which was count bassie too

[federricoilgrande]

Ella è un miracolo, per me che curo i cantanti d'opera, la più grande all times and all inclusive :::)))

[balen3]

Oh how right everyone is to say that Ella together with Nelson Riddle Where the GREATS, How lucky we were to have been born when we were, to have enjoyed MUSIC I feel for the young now, as all they have is Noise for music. We had all the Greats. I am 81 years old, and now use You Tube on while doing other things.

[mdmamelia]

@balen3 I wish I could've enjoyed the music from this era and been born during that time...but I'm glad that the music is still around. I listen to ella everyday..her voice is so soothing

[DumasForever53]

@balen3 right on! i'm 20 and i grew up with my grandparents and my parents - a father who was a music major. i was quite lucky to be exposed to my grandparents music and my dad's expansive music knowledge. i was the girl growing up on everything from Mozart to glen miller to the chubby checker and Elvis. it's true - most music today lacks style and class. my college roommate has a lil wayne poster. i don't know if we're going to see eye to eye on music.

[johnhowardesq]

My parents loved her, and Nat King Cole. I remember these tunes playing in my parents' wonderful fifties cars.

[013Sweetypi]

so part of my wedding playlist :)!!!

[bauuau18]

one day i wanna learn how to dance JAZZ

[Dreambro1]

Sarah V, and Ella F, they have to be the all time best female vocalist! (in jazz) Opera is another story! Billy H, was ok for Sensation, but i couldnt listen to her all day!

[jnelibee]

I there anyone to compare with Ella.

[LilAliciaCook]

ohp! #tomyfuturehusband: honey, THIS is our wedding song! ;-)

[lilmissnisi]

Now this is what I call music chakarnis is right, now it's all swearing

[TheSandsie13]

ella sings what my heart says to my fella everyday. warren our love is here to stay. i love you more than anything honey.

[vivienneleblanc]

Ella is the gold standard against which all other female singers are compared. Her interpretations are perfect, and her voice is pure smooth silk....I have yet to hear another like her. We are so fortunate that Ella's golden age coincided with the golden age of jazz musicians and the invention of those wonderful condenser microphones that made the sea change of difference in the sound of recordings in the late 1940s.

Thank you Ella!

[bolder2009]

@vivienneleblanc So true!

[jasonli419]

thank you for posting this song!! she is always one of my favourite!

[MCGEHEE1]

5 Stars!

[sensibile1900]

this is just like butter!!!

[Romin4]

is there a woman that sings better than her?

I don't think so..

[NancyPizzotti]

The Cadillac of voices the best the happy sound my hero of all time an I love so many but she rocks my world the most.

[mibellagenioV]

i love her music all of it!! georgous voice <3

[leohammondb3]

I love it.

[jazyag]

Ella can sing anyones lyrics and make them her own.

[LaPrincipessaEva]

luv u Ella

[KrautKrazy]

One day when i die,i hope to listen to Ella in heaven ever and ever again !

I`m so in love with her Music-no words for it!

[pelucitadered]

I LOVE this song!!  ~Ella

[followthefleet1]

A great super solid interpretation of a great song. This is as good as it gets. I put this even to Sinatra's great performance of this song.

[olivialcabrera]

this is the song anne grant sang in the book Evening by Susan Minot. The song is perfect!

[lilyofthevalley7]

Oh my dear Miss Ella I'm lovin this!

[maggiepower]

Does anyone know what key Ella uses in this recording? Thanks.

[CrazyLittelGirl]

it gives me chills lovely voice the best ever <3

[ellafitz13579]

Ella.... She's the one who makes me sing.

[980graziella]

Un de mes standards, sinon "le" standard que je préfère, incroyablement moderne pour l'époque de sa création, c'est l'Amour infini, intemporel, comme dans la chanson de MO'SEAN "Give you my soul",un chanteur très prometteur, dont l'album devrait paraître d'ici peu...merci YOUTUBE pour ces perles rares...

[bozela19]

LOVE IT!

[Russell230870]

Riddle also did the same song with Sinatra

[biscaynejc]

hehehehe, I am laughing at the comment of someone saying that he or she was surprised of Ella's cool. I am a young man, and I think Ella can show cool to a lot of people. Ella es to the cubans like sugar, coffee and Rum. What a voice, It is very hard to describe, however I will try. Ella is like the air, you don't see it but you feel it.

[francinemegan]

This songs sounds diffrent than the one on my cd,hmmm intresting but it still sounds good.

[seansurlow]

Thanks for posting this. What a wonderful song.

[fall12527]

　I'm very surprised at her cool voice

[harleyquinn27]

Thank you so much for posting this! I'm singing this to my fiance at our wedding reception in September. It is the first song he saw me preform in competition back when we were teenagers and had just started dating. I wanted to add some Ella flare to it this time. She's my idol! There simply never has and never will be anyone with her talent!

[JubalCalif]

What a joy to listen to! The late great Ella is my favorite female singer of all time. And this is one of my favorite Gershwin numbers. A match made in music heaven! THANK YOU VERY MUCH for sharing it with us! You've made my day & my week! :)

[irishbelle65]

Breathtaking voice and song...Thank you..for sharing this :)

[fallout010]

this song should bee in fallout new vegas

[lemonkooler]

Sexy, soulful and womanly. I love her.

[chkjns]

From 1959, what a gem! (Ella and the song). I have a playlist for every year of pop music back to 1900. These 110 playlists let you travel back in time to the music of any year you choose, as if you're back at that very time . . . . . . . . . . . . .

[MrCribbio]

I can't even stop singing!

[lettore725580]

Un mille grazie alla mia carissima jazz.fri- end Mirella che mi ha dato occasione di commentare questo bellissimo pezzo di Gershwin che la grande indimenticabile Ella canta divinamente,supportata dalla meravigliosa bigband condotta daNelson Riddle.Un particolare di cronaca curioso è che le ultime tre o quattro battute di "Lo- ve is here to stay" furono composte dal fratello di Gershwin Ira;George morì in quei giorni stroncato da un tumore al cer vello. Lettore 725580

[EuBastet]

Oh Ella! Oh! Oh! Oh!

[shinybear]

This song and this singer make life worth living.

[Dreambro1]

@shinybear I love Ella, and Love everything Verve puts out, I have SOME Verve albums including albums with Ella on them, but i have none of the ones pictured in the video! ;-(

[Stormybabe17]

@shinybear Well said :)

[ajernardw]

2:44 is y she is the ella fitzgerald!!

jernard was here...

[lighthouse280]

No matter how down I am, Ella always lights my heart up.

Oh what a wonderful voice, wonderful soul!

[glomur1]

This is the best of the best, no one today can compare to the voice. The style is unbelievable, that is why it is so good. She is in a class by herself, no one can compare to the reliable Miss Ella.

[ajernardw]

check out kim burrell. she can be compared to ella, but no one else. :)

jernard was here...

[BillyBobKumar]

glomur, you are soooo right. Most can't come close to such perfect pitch like Ella. The only exception was Sarah Vaughn...and even she didn't sing this one like Ella. Ella made it all her own.

[ojojoj51]

Folks, I much prefer Ella to Burrell or Sarah, but it's great so many fine singers have their champions!

[keoki9]

Wow, unbelievable talent. She puts singers of today to shame.

[krsoneg]

Carmen McRae's version of "How Many Stars Have to Shine" is a killer recording. look 4 it.

[mndswpr]

I have this collection, and I have played it 1zillion times.How wonderful

[rodrigocobian]

I`m a mexican "young man" but a most tankyou for preserv this kind of marvelous music squse my barbarian english bye.

[tukka1717]

Maravilhosoooooooooo

[78timothy]

What a Songbird!! Ella is da bom!! Riddle arrangment as always GREAT!!!

[chakarnis]

I remember growing up in the 50's and hearing my parents saying "Now THIS is music". They were right.

[igoldberg]

Which version of this song is this one?

[Magamiam]

Thank you so very much for this splendid presentation, tassonpa! I've just added it to my Ella playlist. It's quite educational too, just great work!

[SirenaOceanique]

Such a sexy, laid-back song. Happy V-day everybody!

[PhilipPoland1987]

That was the music!!! Btw, she wasn't pretty... Try to today be famous singer not being pretty... :(

[crugee]

The swingiest sexiest voiced lady of jazz to me, singing to the most perseftive jazz arranger ever, thank the maker that they were brought together

[berrygoodstuff]

I have this cd collection - the best!

[crugee]

What a wonderful arrangement, I love this song but I've never heard this version before, Nelson was a huge part of this era and without him Frank, Ella and so many others would have missed out on some golden moments he brought to their careers, thanks for posting, is there a live video version of Ella doing this arrangement does anyone know?

[56Packman]

There was Nelson Riddle then there was everyone else. He forever changed the popular vocal arrangement/orchestration to a new, modern standard. The word that always comes to mind when I hear a new Riddle chart is taste--such outstanding taste in every facet of his work. I have heard 3,4, and 5 versions of the same song with different singers and each time Nelson brought something fresh to the arrangement. I wished he had lived to see the acclaim his work so deserved.

[Largo64]

Nelson Riddle was a great arranger. A couple of other favorites of mine were Billy May and Les Elgart. Got any recordings by either of them?

[supersmileylou]

She's fantastic!

[giaconda06]

Can I just say that I first heard you grandfather in the early fifties with an orchestral arrangement of the French nursery rhyme, Freres Jacques, which was called Brother John and I was hooked.

Then came Songs for Swinging Lovers, A Swinging Affair and a host of others which were to form a magical partnership with Old Blue Eyes. A great talent indeed

[riddleswings]

Ella was at her very best when singing w/Nelson Riddle and his Orchestra.

Check out the 6 albums they did together. My fav is "Ella and Nelson Swing Brightly". Note: Nelson was my grandfather. He passed in 1985. His music stands the test of time!!!

[tassonpa]

Thanks so much for your comments. Nelson Riddle is my all time favourite orchestrator, Ella my favourite singer. They certainly were a great combination and very good friends, too. I remember that Ella attended your grandfather's funeral in 1985. Thanks again. YOu must be so proud to have had Mr Riddle as your grandfather. A truly great talent.

[stopwishing]

@riddleswings

Your grandfather and Ella made magic together. And he proved he still had not lost his touch later on when he collaborated with Linda Rondstadt.  Nelson Riddle was a genius, whether he arranged for Ella, Sinatra, or Rondstadt.

[beforeourveryeyes]

@riddleswings WOW! Nelson Riddle is your grandfather! I absolutely adore his music: with Ella, with Frank , Rosemary...he's the best. I was just thinking this morning about how i love the way he often composes a different but complementing melody as an intro or that would run through an arrangement-brilliant! If anyone lives on and forEver, HE DOES. I so appreciate ypur sharing the music. Thank YOU.

[mariarosachristina]

@riddleswings

Your grandfather was the best...I loved him...I'm so glad I grew up when music at the top with great composers, lyracists, musicans and singers...

[lcoutu87]

Thanks a million for posting this. Such an enchanting voice. Constant replay, never enough!

[supersmileylou]

I love this song! I had it on tape and then the tape snapped, so I was heartbroken, and now I find this! Yay! Thanks so much for posting it!

[ABALLAM3]

Such a masterpiece recording. So beautiful, vocally. Thank goodness you loaded this in because my stupid radio station does not play her anymore!

[steinpopper]

This song in Ella´s voice is superb! Thank you very much for posting it!!

[tassonpa]

Thanks. I'm so glad you enjoyed it.

[steinpopper]

It´s impossible not to love it: Ella´s voice was so beautiful, she was really blessed by God!

[howhardgerrard]

I wondered if you could help I heard a song years ago and never found out who it was by but I believe it could be by Gershwin? I think its called supper time??

[tassonpa]

"Suppertime" is by Irving Berlin.

[howhardgerrard]

Wow you have fantastic music knowledge, maybe this internet thing can be used to expand knowledge rather than dull it! Thank you

[Ithek]

As someone has stated Suppertime is by Irving Berlin. But there is SummerTime that is by the Gershwins. I didn't know if you just got the names mixed up.

[alexdancer317]

@howhardgerrard hahahahah supper time lol... actually, someone should make a spoof called supper time :D

[SparklingDiamond42]

@howhardgerrard However, "Summertime" is by Gershwin.

[howhardgerrard]

@SparklingDiamond42 Hi, it was suppertime I was looking for although this video has opened a vast amount of doors to music I had never heard.
