  • sam cooke's version is way better..

  • wonderful...keith richards mom used to sing sarah to him to bed

  • Better that Ella, IMHO

  • Wonderful!

  • Amy Winehouse is the only one who can be compared to the 60's music!!

  • best version of summertime ever

  • @dani14helena se escribe: como siempre incríblemente maravillosa (sí, soy un poco idiota)

  • marvelleus voice .Delicious channel. Congratulations.Bello davvero. Chi.-

  • It's like a drug. I listen it almost every day 6-8 times persistently. A genius song and singer both! This Sarah is really brilliant! Why I didnot hear about her before?

  • Comment removed

  • Butter!

  • this still puts me to sleep in a good way

  • Very good song :D

  • wonderful version, thanks for uploading, :)

  • I just added this song to the soundtrack of my life. It's for those moments when my breath is taken away.

  • Now THAT is how you make the song cry! My, my, my.....

  • My favourite jazz singer on this lazy Sunday afternoon with this fabulous song...

    Not a worry in the world.

  • Goosebumps all over!!!

  • Touche" But it burns me up :AND I'm a white southern girl from KY- that all my girls had to enter from the back door! No wonder Billie Holliday did dope= Ella couldn't swim in the Vegas pool either. Not too sure it's much better today.  But I truly hope so. Can you imagine that you[re the headliner? {AKA Taylor Swift or somebody} and they told you that you can't come in the front door" with your Limo? I'd be kickin somebody's ass today!!

  • ESPECTACULAR!!!!! GRACIAS

  • At least the token 4 tone deaf people saw fit to dislike this... something this exquisite is bound to be over many people's heads musically.

  • Morcheeba's version is good too.

  • emotions??!!! beautiful.

  • August is approaching and I am so sorry that I cannot see you in Concert at the Hollywood Bowl on a lovely cool August night singing Gerswin. I remember you in your dressing room and that ridiculous light green Bass metal case that Ray Brown housed his prize possession in. I told you and he that it reminded me of a Mummy's Tomb, you both laughed. Beautiful Sarah, now I am only with you in Spirit and memory but not one Summer goes by when I do not think of our sharing time at the Bowl

  • que delicia para los oídos !!!

  • *replay

  • 3 ppl don't know summertime

  • Key of Bb minor. What a sultry voice. One of the all time great jazz singers.

  • wow ! simply amazing !

  • This rendition is HAUNTING ! But in a good way.

  • Perfection!

  • sarah's gershwin numbers are just great...

    hal mooney is far too unappreciated as arranger of many classic songs, esp. those of nina simone - feeling good, i put a spell on you....

  • that one dislike just happened because he/she missed the like button :)

  • @Cherryxskull ...lol

  • lol that lonely one dislike

  • Simplemente extraordinario.

  • there is one guy that missed the like button !

  • @hellogoodbye880 ....lol

  • oh my gosh ..great voice

  • Gotta rember Mahalia Jackson!!! She's also one of the GREATEST EVER!!

  • It's utterly brilliant, of course, but Ella has it, overall, I think!

  • masterpiece!!!!! greattttt!!!!

  • my favourite version

  • the voice..........jazz lives forever

  • Had the honor of seeing her live at Mr Kelly's in Chicago. Loved her but had no idea I was in the presence of such greatness.

  • spread out, convoluted and dormant. where is the rough edge of jazz.

  • @timmay301: It's a lullaby sung to a baby.

  • Sarah Vaughan, WOW! I might be a product of the 80's and 90's, but I know when someone has pure talent!

  • Oh My Gosh! A TIMELESS voice, beautiful masterpiece!

  • have you heard leona lewis breath taking......

  • have you heard leona lewisbreath taking......

  • This song has just saved my life...again!

  • We should cherish the recordings and video we have of this magnificent lady.

    We will never see the likes of this large talent again. I was lucky to see her last performance in Boston with the POPS and she sealed my devotion and love for her in my heart. Rest in Peace our sweet Sarah

  • maravillosa Sarah "GENIA"

  • There's an equally good version by Angelique Kidjo on YT

  • I saw her in a concert in Central Park in the early 60s. She was fantastic.

  • I wish i lived in their time.. we don't have anyone with a talent even close to this now

  • @dancaaafolifeee Besides Janelle Monáe, check her out.

  • @FreshGalaxy Hmm.. i see what you mean! She's amazing!

  • @dancaaafolifeee ... Rebecca Ferguson (The UK X-Factor 2010)

  • @dancaaafolifeee We do. But people listen to the wrong stuff. You're living in a World in which Justin Bieber will sell more albums in a couple of hours than Sonny Rollins did in his whole life. Go find the good records. You'll be glad you did.

  • Exquisite!

  • Speechless! just amazing..

  • I LOVE THIS VERSION !

  • She puts Fantasia to shame!

    That's how you connect to the music... by understanding it! :)

  • THE Voice of Jazz!!

  • sarah and ella's renditions of summertime are unmatched

  • @1980babywipes I coud not agree more.... When Ella was asked who she listens to.. she said Sassy... she's the cream in my coffee...  I adore them both..

  • @1980babywipes woooo I dare to say that Jenis Joplin's interpretation is also top tier

  • @1980babywipes

    What about Janis and Billie?

  • @mussman717word C'mon... J.J. was a cool hippie but she totally messed up this song

  • @114underground

    Fuck that, sure, it's much different but that was an entirely different take on it. In terms of what she put into it, there's no bastardization of any sorts going on there. If it doesn't suit you that's fine with me, but there's no doubt she (and the holding co) put a hell of a lot into it. Regardless, let's drop the subject. I don't feel disgracing the Divine One with an argument.

  • Gosh could this get any smoother and double creamy thick! What a voice this woman had. Gosh

  • @TheWisemonkey8 oh totally... it's like chocolate to me. and I can't get enough chocolate, believe me!

  • Brillant! Bravisimo!
