  • Bette Davis...Best actress ever!!!

  • olhos lindos 

  • great footage.....great sound-5*****

  • When i was born this song was number one single xD

  • Man, oh man. What a woman! They just dont mak'em like Betty Davis, anymore: Beautiful, strong yet classy, spunky. What i'd give to have been her yankee man...

  • Thought this song was sung by 4 non blonds...

  • ♫♪ Լღvє ♫ ♪♪

  • Very well done, she did have killer eyes.....always liked Bette Davis & this song as well.....Their was many movies she was in where she was slapping someone or shooting someone, you could have added that to when Kim was clapping......lol And I mean no disrespect or anything......

  • veramente stupenda questa canzonee <3

  • she  ** **** ******* *

  • Me encanta está cancion!!

  • The original by Jackie De Shannon was very different. It had more of a honky tonk sound, and was more of a shag like beach tune

  • diplo....

    

  • Absolutlely Amazeing !!!

  • Heard this song in "Take Me Home Tonight", reminded me of how awesome it is. Anyone else?

  • Gosto muito desta canção e de a recordar...

  • this song was written for rod stewert and he didnt want to do it so kim did it

  • So,....what ever happened to Baby Jane.........

  • Some true 80's song (why does 80's music sounded like those video games) hmph. This is what the real music is all about beside today(well a little bit for today of the new music, I guess) Hmm these day.

  • This is awsome!

    Thanks for sharing xx

  • Watching this while reflecting on all the images of her & her last few films before passing that I've seen, I feel a bit down... Like as I've actually watched a the life of a young, exotic beauty begin, mature & age with limited grace, and then pass-away before my very eyes. I feel myself gaining an appreciation of the existence of individuals while they're present, if you can dig what I mean. Bravo!

  • beautifull totaly my taste of music lol :D

  • scoreggio

  • funny that everyone who hears this for the first time can go around for a long time and think the lyrics is "she got better days besides" :D

  • Really Beautiful!!!! d.

  • My favorite actress, she reminds me of my grandmother.

  • BraVo!

  • She was one of a kind!

  • Memories from my chilhood in Acapulco!

    This song always takes me back to those warm afternoons in Acapulco, I was only 11 when I heard for the first time, and I also remember SEVEN UP used it for one of its tv commercials for Mexico!!!

    WOW!!! What a memories, now I'm nostalgic!!!

    Greetings from Mexico!!!

  • i have a dress like the one at 1:42

  • Finally a real song, where is the real music these days with all this rap and hip hop shit... WANNABES. Anything on MTV is just poser and wannabe music.

  • good song

  • check 'mylo - in my arms'

  • Ms Davis is my favourite actress by far!!

  • Back in the days when Hollywood was Hollywood. Bette Davis was a wonderful actress, as were a number of others from that period. There aren't many actresses around nowadays who can act the way she did. They just don't have the same class or charisma she did.

  • @LaFarfalla246:

    Definitely agree with you! Bette was a classy lady. Wish I could've met her.

  • Yes, it was definitely a different era. I think that the Hollywood of that time had much more appeal & it was a more glamorous world than the Hollywood of today. I also feel that the actors & actresses just don't have the same charisma as those from back then. That's just my opinion of course.

  • to jej najlepsza piosenka inne nie sa az takie ktore by wywarly na mnie wrazenie

  • You Can Not Get Any Better Than Ms Davis. My Idol x

  • I save the music from these videos to mp3 quick and free - lookup mp4ify on any search engine

  • She has a great face, but I don't think it was really meant for smiling.

  • @newmark401 Yeah, she always seemed pissed off.

    A brilliant actress who didn't think twice about speaking her mind. There will never be another like her. RIP.

  • what can i say but what a lady she was rip bette davis

  • just the best and nothing else !!!!

  • @ 2:20 she looks almost like aishwarya rai - just even more beautiful than aish...

  • killer song, but her eyes were definately not as big as marty feldman

  • love the tv add

  • bette davis eyes mean that she has big eyes.

  • Absolutely amazing, such great photos of the best actress that ever came out of Hollywood.

  • Does it also mean she doesn't use capitals for every word?

    Lol I'm just messing, I think you're right

  • graet actress and singer! this is one of my favourite 80s songs!

  • Sooooooooo fucking cool. End of...........X

  • I like this.

  • trut actress bette davis

  • love this song...can anyone tell me the meaning of having "bette davis eyes"...I think she's moody??

  • I think it's like eyes that look right through you, piercing eyes, or someone whose eyes are the first thing you notice on their face...something like that...

  • you have to watch a few Bette Davis movies. Her eyes can cut you like a knife in those old movies.

  • pretty nice song, my classmate reminded me of this song just this afternoon

  • Great song heard in my moms car yesterday.

  • What a voice, and the tune is so awsome. one in a mil

  • DIOSA !!!!

  • an extraordinarily beautiful woman

  • I love this song sooo damn much :)

  • Bette Davis herself said she liked the song...

  • she looks scary as heck at 2:31.

  • well...that's just how older people look.

  • i didn't mean any disrespect. i shouldn't have put this on here.

  • this song is eerie, but the woman doe's have nice eyes. michael jackson had unique eyes. someone should put one of michael's better pictures with bette davis' to see who had the most unique look in their eyes. but for goodness sake don't use a recent picture of mike!

  • did you not know the eyes are the only thing that doesn't change in the human body

  • My eyes have changed colour from blue to brown, explain that XD

  • you're a freak! maybe the shade can change 'how old were you when they changed ? 14 weeks!

  • I love this song beat and all. It makes me feel better in any mood I am in. The song is just so unique I love it.

  • Bette Davis Eyes" began life as a song co-written by Donna Weiss and Jackie DeShannon. A recording of it was included on Jackie DeShannon's 1974 album New Arrangement, but it was not until Kim Carnes released her version in 1981 that the song became a hit. The brilliantly atmospheric arrangement complemented Carnes' raspy delivery and "Bette Davis Eyes" spent 9 weeks at the top of the pop singles chart. Bette Davis reportedly thanked Kim Carnes for making her a part of "modern history

  • Well spoken, my friend...Bravo!!!

  • Wikipedia? haha either that or you know a lot :) x

  • Yeah, wikipedia. I actually checked. =P

  • GOOD...FOR YOU!!!!

  • Thank's my friend

  • super, vynikající a úžasné =)

  • OmG in loVeeee

  • She got a great voice lmao! xD

  • love diz song

    kim is good at singing diz but leighton meester is awesome at singing thiz!!!

    xo

  • sounds like a smoker for sure LOL

  • Yeh haha

  • She looks like Kate Winslet.

  • I'd forgotten what a perfect song this was!

    Fantastic lyrics and wordplay, great phrasing and delivery, a unique-sounding voice, all from a gifted singer/songwriter: Kim Carnes.

  • lol she didnt write this, this is a cover of teh original

  • Apparantly Kim DIDN'T write this one:

    (Donna Weiss and Jackie DeShannon wrote it), but she still gave it a unique delivery with her phrasing and her raspy voice.

  • thats what i just said :p

  • retro laura

  • Bette Davis looked the most beautiful when she played Empress Carlota of Mexico.

    Her eyes are so amazing, words cannot describe.

  • kim carnes has a raspy yet cool, soothing voice. i agree with the rod stewart comment. very similar. its very unique. you deff know its kim carnes when you hear her. when she says, "just to please you" its very gentill. its a hard thing to pull off for a vocalist to be that diverse.

  • Exactly! Raspy was the word I was looking for to describe her voice and Rod's voice too. Very unique indeed.

  • I love Kim Carnes voice. I too think it is unique. Her voice and Rod Stewart's voice have that certain sound to it.

  • God love you Bette, I miss you!

  • Well that's a pity you think that way plastic7error.

    Many people would describe it as a unique,one off pop tune.

  • Yo Dude Her Voice Is Fukin Mint So Gerra Life Or Wash Yahh Ears Outt !

  • This is a seriously good pop song...great intro with the hook that carries on throughout....and that husky voice is mega cool,packed with feelings.

    Mint tune.

  • i love the "pure as new york snow" bit its my fav

  • I'm fond of this music x3

  • lol am i the only 1 who knows this song from the ad on tv n had to find it?????

  • no i do to lol! i only knew it from the hair ad off the tv and i really liked the song so i went on youtube 2 find it =]

  • lol what did you type in seach>?

  • oh i think it was "shes pure as new york snow" XD thats the only line i knew!

  • I liked the shampoo ad and typed "you won't have 2 think twice" into google aqnd eventually this came up

  • PURE CLASS - BOTH!

  • Genius! Really love this track. Great voice and lyrics.

  • she's got a resemblance of leighton meester, i now know why leighton did a revival of this song.

    I love you!!!

  • I think most of us were born in the wrong time...she was incomparable. And the photos are great. keithbarron was obviously drawn to one in particular and I think it's the best shot of her too.

  • Great song -singer- and photos of a beautiful actress --just perfect

  • She had such class. Damn...I must've been born in the wrong generation.

    Great job on the video! Getting all these images together couldn't have been easy. Great quality on the music, too! Bravo!

  • True classical beauty. Women these days aren't like this at all. Its truly a shame.

  • truly amazing

  • A classic song. Kim Carnes gravelly voice

    just suits it.

  • Awesome tribute to an awesome actress!

  • Those pics were gorgeous!! I remember the song first time around as well as the face-slapping video that went with it!! Well done you!!

  • great fucking song.

  • woman on pics look like uma thurman:D i love her

  • Amazing

  • i like leighton meesters version more too

    but i luv this one is okay

  • i always thought it sounded like chrissie hynde, only vaguely mind

  • omg this is better than that stupid remake your on about theyve just added some idiotic techno junk but this is deep

  • They don't make them like this any more. Too bad. Nice pictures.

  • me too but this is the original i gotta love it too

  • I like Leighton's too

  • i couldn't agree more.

  • there's an ad out at the moment with this track on it, totally forgot about this one, god knows what the ads about i just remember this gem from back in the 80's.

  • Same!

    i had never heard it til i saw that ad! It was out way before i was born! Also found out about bette davis films that are black and white and even though they are old they are so good, i guess that was before hollywood got all superficial :)

  • hang on all u stiffs put your seat belt on its going to be a bumby night great dialouge

  • hang on it,s going to be a bumby ride

  • no--she was unique.
