Incredible performer, musician and that amazing beautiful voice here in her late 70's. Her voice never sounds old. Johnny Mathis still sounds fantastic performing all of his songs past seventy five! Perry Como kept performing until he was 80, and Tom Jones and Engelbert are still performing as well. Tony Bennett beats them all at 85, having just completed his second "Duets" album.
Happy 79th birthday to a wonderfully talented performer! This video is 4 years ago and the voice radiates of youth and I guarantee it's the same way today! Where do talented people like this come from? The hey day was the mid 60's which is 45+ years ago but the indelible long lasting mark was left. The youth of today should be blessed to hear her hits like Downtown & I Know A Place to name a few on a regular basis!
Today´s performers tend to forget the public and sometimes it is pretty obvious they sing just to make their egos bigger. Well this is an example of a wonderfull rendition of a classic very well sung and played by solid artist... for us... She makes you feel as if you were seated there, near her and she was playing and singing just for you. Isn´t it great?...What a talent....Thanks for posting this gem
french lyrics by jacques prévert, English lyrics by johnny mercer, Music by joseph kosma) The falling leaves drift by the window The autumn leaves of red and gold I see your lips, the summer kisses The sun-burned hands I used to hold Since you went away the days grow long And soon I'll hear old winter's song But I miss you most of all my darling When autumn leaves start to fall
Dean Martin was smittin over her when she was on his show in the 60's...he fell for her hard...I think she said "no thank you"and went on her merry way.
I missed this on the telly so so thrilled to see it now - she is pure magic no doubt about and so talented in so many ways. This song suits her voice to a T
J'ai été extremement touché par l'art et maitrise de cette grande artiste! Et si on pense qu'elle continue a être une grande artiste depuis plus de 60 ans! Merci, Petula, pour tout, mille fois merci!!!
I was extremely touched by the artistry and mastery of this great lady! And to think that she has been around for more than 60 years in quite incredible! Thank you so much!!!!
Yes, I think she's happy & we're happy whenever she sings and dances. Fast or slow, I think she has moved on to other kinds of songs in terms of content, tho she's great to oblige fans with her 60s' hits when she performs. I like to hear more of her doing the songs that she likes to do today in her life like "Solitude's my Own" cos she has become so expressive in what she chooses to sing now. We have her recordings whenever we wish to go back to the 60s.
This is a real treasure. Thank you for this. I wish Pet would stick to this type of material these days. Her upbeat oldie hits are sounding shrill and a little too brassy for my taste She is a great entertainer who I have loved since the sixties..
Pet is exciting to watch in the 60s cos her songs were faster and more energetic. However, I sometimes enjoy her later years' performances as this even more. She has developed herself to become so much more expressive, soulful (even philosophical at times in a song) and intimately warm in her delivery and style. An amazing talent (with still so much to give of herself) and a joy to watch/listen to in any period of her prolific and extensive career.
Many of Petula's songs today are fast and energetic. 'Driven by Emotion', 'Come Along with Me'..two new songs in her act, both fast, and she dances while singing them. But you're right, she's brilliant in 1957 or 2007. Two hours in concert with Petula pass like 10 minutes. She's a total joy.
Lovely song, recorded first by her in French in 1964. Lovely to hear it sung in French again. The lyrics are so beautiful, as is our wonderful Pet. Soulful as always. Great! Thank you.
Thanks a million. A rare video clip of Petula singing and playing the piano. She sings soulfully as usual , and plays the piano beautifully too! A treat!
she's class.x

C'est une chanson, qui nous ressemble
Toi tu m'aimais et je t'aimais
Nous vivions tous, les deux ensemble
Toi que m'aimais moi qui t'aimais
Mais la vie sépare ceux qui s'aiment
Tout doucement sans faire de bruit
Et la mer efface sur le sable les pas des amants désunis

Wow, she was born Nov. 1932, and this is Oct 2007, so she about a month shy of 75. What a stylish act for this age!
