[Carlschwamberger1]

She takes a tough one and makes it seem soooo easy :0

[johngill]

class act

[pappawheely]

intoxicating and wonderful

[Harpo930]

talk about your sexy role models, Laurel is one of the best. And the lady could chirp

[btlefan4]

i first heard this song on an old jukebox from the 1960's in 1978, it was left on the jukebox (old 45 rpm) in and old bar in a dusty corner, but was sung by female, unknown (50's or 60's singer).

[50Emerald]

Somehow, Laurel is sexier and more beautiful than the Kingston Trio when she sings this wonderful song... (!!!)

[itsbanffdavehere]

Came across this video clip quite by chance and WOW, what a find!!!

Absolutely brilliant!

[Musiclogic]

could you imagine being a baritone surrounded by laurel, Cheryl and Janis....talk about "beautiful music"

[sergios345]

Now Laurel and Janis return to sing TOGETHER AGAIN !! they have formed together with Lauren Kinhan the vocal group called "JALALA"

[ThePENON]

i need this woman!!

[hipocampelofantocame]

@ThePENON Please take a number.

[ThePENON]

@hipocampelofantocame Not number! I saw her first!!

[hipocampelofantocame]

This lady still drives me just nuts, and I'm pretty old. Thanks so much for the post.

あー溶けそうなくらい。お上手。歌手とはこの人です。魅力的。歌­を楽しんでいます。

[john8pies]

oh come on it should be illegal for anybody to be this good AND so beautiful with it; no other femalesingers stand a chance!!!! (PS: I hope the lipsynch is just slightly out and that she isn`t actually miming - she doesn`t need to!)

[CarlSchwamberger]

@john8pies I think its the video is off. A really common thing on youtube

[owainglyndwr16]

@john8pies No worries .. Lipsynching wasn't allowed on the old grey whistle test !! Thats just you tube .. They couldn't get the synchronization right if their lives depended on it !!

[solredoc]

mmmmmmhhhhh great

[hankluvsdagny]

Can you say, "torch song"?

oh me, oh my

do I feel high....

do I feel high? every time I hear Laurel.

[lnasution76]

sweet

[BritFez]

I'm in love/lust with her...she melts my face

[baesparza]

I aspire to her delivery!

[EwolDJ]

This was the one that originally did it for me. Had a crush on that voice ever since. That's a long time to have a crush. I'm not the jealous type, I'm happy to see that a lot of people 'feel the way I feel' too. I'm still on Laurel's Wagon, but it's crowded up here, ha ha.

[Intersounds]

Will you marry me???? Jokes aside, Laurel what a performance! Love it. Thanks for a thrill, Bob

[Grlsinger47]

Wow...I was a huge Manhattan Transfer fan as a kid, and I never realized how beautiful Laurel's voice was. I was so sad when she left the group because I liked her better than her replacement (not taking away from Cheryl though). I agree with a previous poster...they don't make singers like this anymore. Laurel is a national treasure.

[wombat169]

saw them live in 1978 ... laurel did this song so well ... great band, great night

[henrysinaga]

wow laurel masse is fantastic!! but cheryl is also breathtaking, both of them are wonderful!

[morkygorky]

scotch? martini? gin?

No, the most intozicating is Laurel's voice....just sublime!

thanks for posting...

[tresdivine]

she's the best!

[masimo49]

Walk in Love was 1978 -Laurel left MHT in 1979.

[derbbus]

1972-1979 ????

Walk in love was 1984 ????

[MSP62]

Laurel, you are absolutely intoxicating. You American Idol wannabes, take note. They just don't make 'em like Laurel anymore.

[roynash]

Laurel, you sing so pretty! Subdued yet bright, gentle yet strong. Love the contrasts in your voice. And all as smooth as velvet. (Oh, and I got all the words, too!)

THANKS for a sweet-as-scotch version of my favorite song.

[Sukotto01]

Pure class

[bitrot7]

Just Wonderful.

[bobbyVisitor]

Delightful. This and Blue Champagne. Of the latter I like Bentyne's version better (from '86 concert in Japan).

[jupsag60]

Sorry, Bentyne´s voice is marvellous but Laurel´s version of Blue Champagne it´s far away the best version of it.

[Wkdrossyboy]

one of my fave mantran songs. although the alternate lyrics you can make r a wee bit funny...
