Hey guys I did a piano cover of this song posted my channel. It would be greatif you could check it out and let me know what you think...maybe even subscribe if you like it? thanks :)
I saw the revival of Stop the World twice when it came through Chicago in 1978. And each night, his performance was as electrifying as you see here. A magnificent talent and national treasure.
Sammy was and is the Best that ever was !!!!!! In the Rat Pack he was the BEST ! I remember him Dancing , one time only, on Carson Mr. Bo Jangles ! In his Biography He said that is My Story and I'll never do this again ! What a Man What a Talent What a Gift to us that loved him !!!
joe, thanks for posting! im the little kid at the end of the song. ive been looking for this on and off for years and randomly watched the whole song and almost fell out of the chair! if you know where i could get a copy of the movie that would be great. best, charles!
Fantastic !! Thank you for posting. Wish Id been around to see him on Broadway back then. I am in awe of him and his awesome awesome talent. Beautiful.

did you know that this song was released in 1996 originally sung by regine velasquez al over asia......try to watch regine velasquez singing this song in her live concert in the youtube type
Sammy was the greatest entertainer to grace our lives.....He could sing, dance, act, and do it all....You will never see another with this passion for greatest
Hollywood in now The Brat Capitol of the World. The Great Stars are gone forever. All we have now are Brats, who could not sing or dance, if their life depended on it.
What a stunning interpretation of a truly great song. Sammy Davis Jr could have sung his laundry list and been brilliant. However, Mr. Newley never came at 'Fool' twice from the same angle, and that is what makes him the master.
It is truly amazing how a great artist can twist phrases or melodies of even their own signature songs, and create a new remarkable version... SDJ is an American treasure.
3:23 is awe-inspiring. To be in Vegas with this guy performing (along with Dino and Frank) is one of the first destinations I'd hit if I had a time-machine.
thats why he was the man!! sammy lives and breathes this song, tony newley loved sammy,s versions so much... legend..we will never see his kind again.....

Sammy's voice was better than Sinatrs's...a wondrous range. Seems he was overshadowed by Frank's popularity.

On performers today: no doubt sammy is great! But there are performers today who are of equal quality, you just need to look in the right places.
Society today has changed today from sammy's time and values different types of performance.

Everyone above said it all.
How bout we give Sammy a free pass for an unlimited life and bring him back. He earned it with the beauty, love, talent and joy he gave all of us.
I have the passes. Bring them back (Judy,Dean, Frank, Ella, and on and on) and I will give them all the passes.
Shoot don`t we all miss them terribly. At least we have their recordings.
Hats off to YOU TUBE

Everybody wants to be a star today without talent or putting in the hard work required.
God bless Sammy David Jnr, a real star. He had more talent in his little finger than the whole of today's plastic performers!
