I love this song, happy and sad at the same time..and Mr. Harris' rendition is as usual, excellent, but the recording quality doesn't really do too much to highlight his ability. But it's all real and that does matter enough.
Beautiful version of this song. So nice to see that you're still using your gift and brightening this world. Can't believe I first saw you all those years ago on Star Search.
ooh!!! what a lovely voice! i just loved to hear that over and over again you sound like the original singer....... im geting a little exicited this coming christmas..... christmas is just around the corner.... god bless
This is sooo great!! I liked the way you sing it sam. so your so inspirational. what key is this in?? and where can i get the music I would love to perform this at a xmas chatity event.
I love this! I really liked that you made this your own, kept it simple and put your heart into it. Every time I hear someone else singing it (other than Judy) they either absolutely wreck it with over the top vocal gymnastics and trilling all over the place, have no real sense of understanding of what the song is about, or do a campy Judy impersonation. I'm a huge Judy fan so for me to tolerate let alone like this song done by anyone other than her is a rarity! well done! :D
Every time I hear this song I cry! It's one of the most heart-rending, nostalgic songs ever. Nakes me miss my mom even more than ever....Love your voice, love the piano.....WONDERFUL job Sam!!
Every time I hear this song I cry. I can't get through this song when I sing it without crying. It's just too beautiful and hearing you sing it is the most heartfelt I've heard since Judy.
I have followed your career since you were a boy. I've watched you grow, and bought your cd's. I had the pleasure of seeing you do "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat" when the show played Hartford. In short, I guess I am a fan. Thanks for it all.
How beautiful! I am sitting here listening with tears in my eyes...what a GOD given talent Mr Harris has...I am feeling so 'bright' after hearing this...
Sam - Watching this video and listening to you sing makes me want to rewind time back one month, and experience the Christmas season all over again. You're amazing!
New York Company was where Jamie and J.D. Kessler managed (years ago) before J.D. went over to the Cinegrill at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel (I was there many times also). I'm sorry-I thought I had seen you at NY Co. before and I think Jamie even introduced me to you once. Oh well-no matter. The music was and still is wonderful. Happy New Year.
Being friends with Jamie Anderson, I used to frequent open Mike nights at NY Company. I was always mesmerized by watching Todd Schroeder on the piano. I just used to stare in awe. Saw many, many great performers over the years (including you Sam). I miss those days. Wonderful.
loved it sam. Send this as a video holiday card to a friend who loved you as perry on the class. She has never heard you sing before. She loved it. This was a great way to show her your singing style.
You made my Christmas and it's not even here yet. Thanks so much for this. I saw the other vlog where your friend Bruce said you sing this to him when he's blue even if it's in July. Now I can watch this if I need it too. Thanks Sam
Sam, how wonderful. You are so generous to share yourself with these performances and your vlogs. Have loved you since Star Search and was thrilled to find you here a few months ago. Have the most wonderful holiday season.
sam, how blessed we truly are to get these vlogs of you and your performances. it's always so nice to see todd, as well. the combination of your singing and his accompanyment is perfection. my heart is happy after seeing this. thank you for sharing.-vicki
