  • julie , a very nice sexy voice, love it.

  • As silky, sultry and beautiful as it gets, Julie was one of a kind, wonderful!

  • Pure Class all the way. She was one hot lady. Beauty and a beautiful voice.

  • I remember her from the 70's tv show Emergency.

  • play "Misty" for me.

  • This song belongs to Julie with Johnny right behind.

  • great song, silly arrangement, Julie superb as always

  • audio and visual are sizzling

  • @Bluetrain67 please do not try and equal the mannish Diana Krall to Julie London. Julie is far superior to her. You can compare any song and Julie runs circles around her. To say she was the Diana Krall of her time is belittling. Julie was the greatest.

  • I miss women like this!!!!!!

  • @hobie65202 what about Melody Gardot!

  • I get misty just hearing she sings

  • i think this is absolutely beautiful.

  • my dad told me lisa if i ever find a woman who sings like ella & has her legs I AM LEAVING UR MOM JOKINGLY,,,,but whoa....taste!

  • This music reminds of the beautiful music that once was popular in our country. We sure have taken a huge dive from where we once were. Her voice is a delight to the ears.

  • Have to agree with everyone else, American pop music has taken a huge dive from this era

  • Julie London is my kind of female singer - I prefer deeper, seductive voices. This song is a dream as it is. And with Julie's voice it turns into a fairytale.

  • Visually she reminds me a lot of Gregory Peck.

  • Love dripping from the lips of a beautiful woman.Leave us with the saxaphone playing and we will soon be three.Thanks for the moment

  • Sarah Vaughn also does a really good cover of this song.

  • Her voice was silky, lush, and so sensuous. What a beauty, I could've fallen for her big time. I read that she was really sweet and good to her friends. There is a great BBC series on her on youtube, four stars too.

  • Her voice alone was enough to make most men fall in love, add classy and looks, too, and WOW!

  • NO ONE comes near her beauty and class today!

  • hoşçakal.......

  • She doesn't sing the melody, she caresses it.

  • OMG the definition of POP has so much changed these days.....

  • Stunning!

  • Divine song and voice! Yes, it's indeed misty, smokey, dark, pleasant! That's a feeling I get from listening to her and this song in particular.

  • OMG I had no idea she recorded this song.  I fell in love with it by Johnny Mathis and had the band play this song for our first dance at our wedding, in 1964. I love, love her version. My older brother had a major thing for Julie. So beautiful, classy, and oh so talented. Glad I found this.

  • Julie London was the Diana Krall of her time...

  • @Bluetrain67

    Thank you for your appreciation of quality and talent ,hard for some people to see now, or listen to .

  • You have -zero- class if you don't like Julie London. I'm a heavy metal guy at heart, but I have a serious soft spot for jazz.

  • Sizzling hot...

  • beautiful voice

  • And you didnt have to be Butt naked to sell records. Just talent was enough

  • Vão os dois procurar uma namorada, ou namorado...?! They'll both look a girlfriend or boyfriend ...?!

  • She use to play in the TV show, Emergency, in the 70s as an RN, went by the name Dix if I remember correctly. Nice looking woman.

  • asian american sing misty more please take a look

  • @awais142

    Congratulations at knowing nothing about music and having the attention span of a 10 year old.

    Go play your little dragon ball games.

  • @IgnorantOwl lmao... so if i did know about music it would have to be this boring peice of shit? LOL i like rock music there Now go start war with that genre lawl.

  • @awais142

    Then perhaps you should go listen to your Jonas Brothers instead of commenting on music you aren't intelligent enough to understand.

  • @IgnorantOwl I listen to rock as in bands like " disturbed" LOL you think someone has to be intelligent enough to listen to this boring shit ? Haha ok you keep listening to your black and white gay shit which you think takes alot of intelligence to understand what ever that means rofl..

  • @awais142 music is more than black and white. i also listened to disturbed, metallica, black label society and plenty of other shit. you know nothing of music. why did you even come listen to this in the first place? GTFO please and let other people enjoy the music.

  • @awais142 What made you think you are the only one who listened to Rock in here? What is most amazing is bands like 'disturbed' was enough for all your emotions,

  • @awais142 Good luck in life and love without comprehension of gentleness, then, comrade...

  • @awais142 I can't even begin to understand how you are missing the amazing tenderness of this song. Are you that emotionally stunted that you can't feel the heart in her voice? I pity you...

  • Classy, just classy.

  • I love her voice!

  • Julie London is like a hidden treasure, it´s there waiting for you to discover it.

    I´m glad I discovered it, I prefer Julie diamond to sparkling bijouterie Britney, Miley, Gaga etc.

  • female chet baker

  • Her voice as beautiful as her face

  • @migports Never heard it said better.

  • her voice is just magic.. :') I'm 11.

  • These were the real singers...........She was great..

  • I had never heard of Julie London before... this is pure gold...

  • Simply wonderful, sooo soothing, soooo mellow, WOW!!

  • La diferencia de esta clase de música, es que antes se privilegiaba la "música" y el ritmo era solo eso y nada mas. Hoy la dudosa música que se hace, solo privilegia el acompañamiento rítmico, la imagen y los efectos técnicos.....y de "música" no queda mucho....

  • i can remember my mom and dad playing her music on the "hi-fi." that was even before stereo was invented. i thought that music was ,"hokey."

    50 years later, it's a different story. this is good music to mellow out with.

    it's timeless.

  • I wish I was 50 years older

  • Julie was just awesome with that husky, emotional voice, wow!

  • Beautiful.I never heard this singer before.Thank you.

  • smooth jazz stylings mmmmmmmmmm keeps me warm and cozy

  • i imagine an old cruise ship .. the 1920's .. the dance floor full of people .. and of course .. this song in the background

  • Julie took up singing fairly late in her career. Primarily an actress, she had a long running TV series in the late fifties or early sixties. Married to another accomplished musician and composer, Bobb Troupe.

  • Ella Fitzgerald. Aretha Franlkin. Dusty Springfield. Nina Simone. Billie Holiday. Julie London. Dinah Washington. Sarah Vaughan. Peggy Lee.

    Genuine Divas, incredible Artists, unforgettable Women. Quality music, emotion, class.

    I so wish I lived at their era

  • @lightenup15

    What a list of talented ladies, everyone of them top quality, for sure, I was back then and remember them all, super singers and class, agreed.

  • @lightenup15 You missed Anita O'day who should be first on that list.

  • @mockingbirdarmada Hey, it's a list of personal favourites, not meaning to declare "the best" or anything.. Point taken though, Anita O'Day is absolutely wonderful! Beautiful, genuinly female voice =)

  • I love Julie London and Gaga. Talent is talent.

  • Her voice has a haunting, sorta mysterious quality that no other artist can imitate, with the exception of the great Ella Fitzgerald..

  • Sheer class. *****.

  • Remember when pop singers had beautiful voices and not just costumes?

  • @dftr621 Unfortunatly, no.

  • @dftr621 jackson ? the only one maybe, but still is :)

  • @dftr621 she's considered a pop singer?

  • @Phersephoie isnt she jazz?

  • @selina1235678 that's what i thought...i'm just asking

  • @dftr621 yes I do, as I shake my head at the garbage today...

  • Thanks for posting...sounds from the past...classy voice, smart lyrics.......no longer around!!

  • @ukcatfan36 Mostly true. Check out the band Florence and the Machine. She goes back to the clasic love lyrics with an amazing voice. Drumming Song is a great example. Its about her heart when her lover gets near.Sounds lame, but that girl sings her heart out

  • omg, I waaant that dress.

  • the blue one.

  • Haley should sing this one...

  • my word she was gorgeous and a voice to match

  • FLUTES!!! <3 Julie London

  • FLUTES!!!

  • 10 people got lost in the mist.....

  • Awesome.

  • Make Me A Samwich.

  • Comment removed

  • not that i want to hate on this or anything, but i like Ella Fitzgerald's a lot better. i do like this one too, just not as much as the original.

  • Beautifully sung, but whose idea were the random flutes? What a shame!

  • @ashreebrooke agree

    

  • Men used to treat a woman like a woman.. these days men want a play mate & a GF who will play Xbox with them,go watch footy & have a few beers...not spend hours brushing her hair in front of a mirror...Next time u tell the Mrs to hurry up because ur waiting to go out, Remember... she has to do her hair for 4 hours, apply the lippy, put on her pretty little perfect dress,matching shoes & bag, then not forgetting to kiss ur ass before setting out for an evening with you..Pompous Idiots!

  • тэр хайр майр нь байсан бол утгаараа уяраад суухгүй юу..

  • @horselyle14 I don't understand what's wrong with wearing pants, though...

  • Great song close your eyes and give it an ear.

  • @IB1RU Thats exactly what I do....!!Imelda from Mexcio in L.A....

  • Thanks so much for postings this great music, brings back wonderful memories!!!

  • This sultry bombshell was also a prized "pin-up" girl for thousands of GI's in WW2.

  • @mistressofaminer

    Born in 1926 she was only 13 when ww2 broke out. Mind you, by the time the yanks joined in she would have been 16, old enough for the GIs I suppose.

  • I used to watch the series "Emergency" on the tube in the 70's and my mom would gasp when she saw Julie London as "Dixie McCall", R.N. She said " Take that darnn nurse cap off, let your hair down, put on a plunging neckline sequence gown, dim the lights and sing something sweet and low for us". What in the world is she doing on that show"?

  • At 2:17 she kinda looks like Donna Reed. Beautiful song btw.

  • thenoblequran (Ctrl+Enter)

  • This woman could really sing and what a class act...what the hell happened? Today there's so much inferior stuff like Lady gaga.

  • @40warhawkp bad like gaga?have u listened to her records?they 're on youtube LISTEN and learn!

  • @40warhawkp thats because music demand changed and our values to find the "good" music you have to search deep there out there though.

  • @40warhawkp I dont think you should have said lady gaga bc she can actually sing and she righs hre own music n is inspired by artist like julie london

    now people like britney spears now thats trash!

  • @40warhawkp Stop listening to crap music then, music today is better than it has ever been. Turn off your television, radio etc and go make a little effort to find it and stop complaining with this boilerplate internet cliché.

  • @sacredgeometry Spoken like a true tone deaf cloth eared muppett.

  • @23071957jazzman Spoken like someone with an inability to find music that isn't in handed to them by mass media :) I have been a musician since I was 3 I play most things that are handed to me excluding brass. I grew up on Jazz music predominantly but love all styles and i'm tone deaf because you cant find good music? Hahaha OK :P

  • @40warhawkp ............Damn cigarettes damaged this fine lady...........but of course in those days, cigs were so fashionable........Yes, we lost a great a voice, not like the stage circus shows we have today.................

  • haranoe - Good afternoon . Thanks for your coments . You're an educated man I fill it. You have a high english . My english is poor , but, I have sure you can understand me . I love read high kind of english like you done . I am a very old brazilian man . Kind regards for you and your family . Arqueiroify (from Brazil)

  • Bare såååå dejlig en stemme .... ville give min højre arm for at kunne ha oplevet en live koncert .... 

  • @Allankarlsson Det er sant det!!!!!

  • yes women looked like women in the old days ,now they look like porkers

  • Two words "Class Act"

  • Hmph, this version could do with a lot less flutes.

  • She is Legend and is still a great singer and a beautiful woman.

  • I am 18 and I love, love, love this music. her voice is like magic & honey.

  • Youtube has helped launch a resurgence in the interest of Julie London. That's a good thing. If you'd a told me a couple of years ago Julie would have gotten a 1/2 million hits to hear Misty I would have laughed......Love you Julie!!!!!

  • Who is Plying the Sax solo? It sounds like Zoot

  • Beautiful! :o)

  • amazing vocal

  • great artist. and a babe.

  • @0311RFLMN

    Every song I write I write for her to sing. Unfortunately she's no longer with us and they sound silly coming out of a guy.

  • Fantastic!

  • This diehard metalhead loves this. True jazz at it's best.

  • The 9 people who dislike this, dont know music. Go listen to Gaga or whoever.

  • @garylsorrell. Any body who does not like this must be gaga!!

  • @garylsorrell

    *whomever

  • @sk8teh14

    No, I spelled it like I meant to spell it. If it's incorrect, blame my teachers.

  • @garylsorrell

    Ya it's incorrect cuz the "who" in your sentence isn't the main character of the story. The people who are supposed to go listen to Gaga are the "who", the people being listened to are the "whom". But it's just teh internetz so no1 rly cares.

  • @garylsorrell haha well said..

    music has become a business....

    its not for the art any longer...

  • @garylsorrell I Happen to love Lady Gaga :) AND Julie London. I have a wide love for music, if you look for art in music and talent Gaga has it now most people judge just cuz she is crazy..that she is but she isnt bat shit crazy :) if you actualy pay attention to her lyrics and look at what she wears you could see the performance arts of it, but then again im weird :) so I'll be quiet :D

  • @mlaster2 Thats cool. It probably wasnt a fair comment for me to make, kind of a knee jerk reaction. I also have a fairly broad range of musical interests. Everything from classical to country to rap. Older folks like me often pine away for the old days, but time dowes move on, and so do peoples taste in music. Really, go back to the 70s, and Cher was every bit as flamboyent as Gaga, and Ive always loved Cher.

  • @garylsorrell Thankyou :) I really enjoy people that dare to be different, When I saw Bjork :))) perform on the Oscars when I was 7 I litteraly thought she was out of a fairytale. and I loved her since !!!, performance arts and a beautiful beat just gets me more then anything. I may be 16 but my heart of music goes back a hundred years :) I love Jazz, R&B, Blues,Rap~Now that depends on the artist ~ Elton John,Evanescence,Julie London, Bessie Smith,Bjork, Lady Gaga, Missy Elliot, Emily Autumn

  • @garylsorrell I love her and his music

  • @garylsorrell I listen to GAGA but I also Love this song by Julie London! they are both beautiful artist in their own right.....just depends how open you can be to different types of music.

  • @garylsorrell So you really think that it's impossible to like both ways ?

  • DIEEEESIRAE - You're quite correct of course in many ways, but we've gone well beyond the bounds of equality. I liked the romance and the holding open of doors, but not the inequality in pay. Where have we arrived with our libbing? We're running empires, countries, farming the kids out, and marrying house husbands. Is this 18-hour day the dream we strove for with our bra burning and banner waving?

  • @argaretbea The challenge was that the women's movement sought equality by trying to change gender roles in society vs making it an economic parity. I'm in my 40's- not 50- and consider myself refined. Women's lib did accomplish much in awareness, but as a society we have moved on. Few people today have issues with female doctors, judges, lawyers, political representatives. There are relatively few CEO who are women but that's a process. I do n't call owners of businesses CEO's,

  • I was around when Julie London was in her hey day. It was the culture of "Me Tarzan you Jane". I'd like to have some of that now. So in consideration of the utter futility of unisex and women's lib I wish we could do a rewind.

  • @argaretbea

    Hah, if you wanna stay home, shit out kids, get paid less than men, and have less of an education, go right on ahead. The days of women only being secretaries and telephone operators are over. We're CEOs and rock stars.

    There's no right way to be a woman.

  • @DIEEEESIRAE

    Except maybe Julie's way. Sigh. What a dame.

  • @DIEEEESIRAE "shit out kids"? The defense rests. I'll take my kids, my man, my home over being chained to the photocopier and endlessly checking email any day.

  • Remind me why we embraced rock and roll...

  • Hi trumsahead, I was only 69 when I joined YouTube officially...I'm newly 72 now, guess I should change my username, huh?...but, then, I'd have to change it every year, LOL. I very much love/d Julie, along with many other female singers e.g., Dakota Staton, Ella, June Christy, Sarah, Lena, etc. then there is/was JM (No. 1), Frank Sinatra, lots of jazz musicians like Oscar, Dave Brubeck, Errol, Ahmad Jamal, not enough room here to list them all, but you get the picture. God bless

  • only57 and 1 mo. so i didnt hear these songs by her nor have i seen her, but now after all my hard rock and i totally love rammstein aus Berlin, this is nice so very nice but i am variable always have been and all is good always has been, for me a open book,

  • written by the great pianist Errol Garner 1954

  • I always enjoyed her on tv when I was a kid. I'm pretty sure it was her own show. Listening now to Misty this is not my favorite version for sure, and the arrangement is terrible. The flutes in this version doing their little bird trills make me wanna kill the flutist. But I always loved Julie London's singing.

  • @trumpsahead this was Ella Fitzgerald song

  • @46188Maria

    I don't agree. I remember Sarah Vaughn making it a hit, and Johnny Mathis coming in second place. I know Ella sang it but don't recall her getting a hit out of it. But when I think of Julie London I hear Cry Me A River in my head.

    My favorite Ella Fitz was her Gershwin albums; her voice was like velvet then, her best years I think.

  • @trumpsahead well everybody has their own opinion...so im not goin to argue, i jst heard the song an ella sanged it so i assumed bt if u think...know that that woman made it a hit then ok

  • @46188Maria

    It's fact: Sarah Vaughn had a very big hit singing Misty; became her signature song; heard her sing it a 1000x. I think it was her first Gold record, although she had a few earlier hits, Whatever Lola Wants and Make Yourself Comfortable were hits but I don't think Gold. In the 50's, anything Sassy Sarah sang was a hit, she was that hot.

    Ella was great but did not make Misty a hit but sang it because it was a great tune that became standard.

    Search the Internet to satisfy yourself.

  • @trumpsahead thanks bt no thanks

  • who is the idiot the didnt like it?????????

  • did you know julie londons real name was gayle peck

  • I had forgotten how pure and beautiful Julie's voice was. If I remember correctly, she was married to Jack Webb.

  • @LincolnKat Yes, she was married to Webb way back in the 40's and 50's, then she married Bobby Troup and was with him until he passed. She passed I dont think to much after he did of a stroke. Loved both of them on Emergency 51 TV show.

  • I love Julie London, but Johnny Mathis is doing a much better job on Misty.

  • Kevin, they were and they did sound sexier and I was young then, wouldn't have missed it at all!

  • Great to see a white girl attempt it.

  • @jbecker8082 That was a really scary movie.

  • the flutes ruin an otherwise beautiful song.

  • So sultry and so beautiful. Wow that voice is so amazing. Definitely in the top 1% of my favorite vocalists.

  • Im 20 years old, Im so proud im falling in love with this song while my friends are crazy with lady gaga and justine bieber lol

  • Great. A tribute to the beautiful distinctive Julie London.

    Wonderful photos. The song I hear you.

    A good film work.

    Amazing memories.

    ☸ ڿڰ -

    Thanks for sharing.

  • @IngridHexerl You are so beautiful with this choosen. You know a lot about eleganta and nice music. Congratulations.

  • Wonderful voice, beautiful woman !

  • Julie London singing Misty

    sometime between 1969-1975 London
