Doris Day sings I'm Beginning To See The Light

[ForEverGilda]

I'm Beginning to See the Light from the album SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY recorded around 1964-1965 is a great song, sung with perfect diction and in the intimate style which is Doris's signature. Not to forget on the same album AT LAST, THE MORE I SEE YOU (Wow!!), SERENADE IN BLUE....With Doris it's always a sentimental journey. I'm very happy to see that a lot of people like Doris Day and her songs, even me in Switzerland so far away from the United States....Thanks again, Dayniac, we love you.

[Dayniac4324]

@ForEverGilda This is one of my all time favorites from Doris ! Love it !! It is amazing the number of people that love Doris. She still receives a huge amount of mail. Before her son passed away, he said she received as much as she did while she was still in Hollywood. That is amazing ! I'm so happy you're enjoying some of my video's. I joined yt to get her music out there so it makes me feel good to hear you are enjoying ! Thank you .. have a great week !!

[BloxorzWizard]

She's not just up there with them... she went beyond them. This is way better than their versions. If you've never seen that movie with her and Kirk Douglas, where Kirk is a trumpet player that winds up marrying a vicious Lauren Bacall and spirals downwards, and Doris is a singer who bucks him up, I highly recommend it. She sings some great stuff in it all throughout the movie.

[Dayniac4324]

@BloxorzWizard I have to agree with you ... in my view - she is at the top. I know not every one agrees with that. I think she deserves much more credit than she gets. I've never figured out why she is overlooked. Her son Terry said that her movie career took over and got bigger than her music career. And I think Marty had a hand in it too ... he channeled her career in a direction she probably wouldn't have gone with another agent. Yes - she sings some great songs in Young Man With A Horn.

[waynebrasler]

This recording illustrates why so many music critics put Doris right up there with Ella, Peggy and other greats.

[Dayniac4324]

@waynebrasler It certainly illustrates that she belongs right there at the top. In recent years she's gotten more of the credit she deserves....thank goodness !! Happy you enjoyed !!

[TheRockinRelic]

Wow!! What a great version of this song. Doris could really sing. Thanks for posting.

[Dayniac4324]

@TheRockinRelic This is one of my favorites from Doris .. I love this. She really can sing... she amazes me ! Thanks ... so happy you enjoyed !!

[angelofbebop]

Wow! Such a fabulous song that has Doris' "signature" style all over it! Love it! Thank you Toni! :-)

[Dayniac4324]

@angelofbebop I love this song from Doris... but there are soooo many that I love ! haha ! Thank angel.... happy you enjoyed. Hope you're having a great week !!

[rioamigo]

I just listened to Ella Fitzgerald and Peggy Lee sing this...I had to come back to hear Doris sing it again. Who would cavil about Ella and Peggy?No one! Yet Doris is incomparably better! The only way I know to say it (and it applies to virtually every other of DD's peers. M or F), is that they sing the words and the music whereas Doris sings the song! Does this distinction make sense? It does if you know what I'm feeling....

[Dayniac4324]

@rioamigo I know just what you mean. I think she sings the song...as the composers meant it ... period. No fancy stuff - just the true essence of the song. In a way I think thats why she's so underrated - and to me that should bring her more accolades !

Don't get me wrong - I enjoy jazz and Peggy and Ella are wonderful. But sometimes - I want to hear the just the song. And Doris always delivers.

[Elkindo]

Is this the one they use on the samsung advert for the tv? Love it

[Dayniac4324]

I don't know ... but I really love this one from Doris ! Happy you enjoyed !

[laurakallam]

wow this best the version of this song she beats everybody else

[Dayniac4324]

Have to agree with you. I think her interpretation of this is amazing. Has to be one of the best ... or maybe as you say - the best ! Thanks ... happy you enjoyed !

[dayfan1962]

What a sexy rendition of this much overlooked song. Doris is simply flawless.  Loved It! Thanks heaps.

[Dayniac4324]

Isn't it a great version of the song ? I really love this one too ! Happy you did too !

[manfreadstraw]

What a great song, and she just proves again how superb she was as a recording artist. Great stuff!! Thanks so much for it Toni, and hope you have a great weekend. - Manfread

[Dayniac4324]

I REALLY love this song. It's a great one from Doris. I'm trying to catch up - but I think I'm going to hang it up and take a nap ! Hope  you have a great week ... Toni

[Dayniac4324]

Me too ! She does a great version of it.

So happy you enjoyed !! Thanks !

[dragonology5]

[Dayniac4324]

Thanks Rod - glad you enjoyed it !

[ra86226]

what a beautiful arrangement. And of course Doris sounds supreme. What album is this from again and what year did she record it?

[ra86226]

OOPS.  Never mind. I should have read the comments farther down.

[Dayniac4324]

ra86226 - glad you enjoyed this wonderful song - she certainly does sound supreme !

Thanks !!

[cocochanelleke]

Dayniac4324 -

thanks a million for your comment about working (single) women. According to WOII history they were strongly encouraged to contribute to the "war effort" mainly in factories, while the men were sent overseas to fight.

After the men came home, the women were strongly encouraged not to take their jobs, i.e. to quit, which was strongly advertised by advertisements on radio and tv. Pretty apron and pretty smile and so forth.

Please correct me if I´m wrong.

Yours truly

Coco

[cocochanelleke]

No, please don´t correct me, because that´s a fact.

Night-night and fare the well from Holland

Coco

[Dayniac4324]

coco -- thats very true !

There were Day movies that she fit into that mold. But - there were other movies that she was going in a whole different direction.Thats the reason Day's independent woman was different. For instance in By The Light of the Silvery Moon - her fiance comes home from WWI and wants to wait to get married until he can save money - she wants to get a job to help. Miss Independent ! But the man says NO NO NO - can't do that.

She was a working woman in many of her movies

[cocochanelleke]

Thanks Dayniac. Am slightly beginning to see what DD stood for at that time.

Coco

[marcialeer]

nice job

[Dayniac4324]

Take care,

Toni

[peterflapper]

Greetz,

P

[classicfan1]

Great! Do you know what year this was recorded?

[Dayniac4324]

[Dayniac4324]

[Dayniac4324]

jebandjab -- glad you enjoyed the song -- there are very few DD songs I don't like !

Thanks !

[cocochanelleke]

Thanks YouTubemum.

I used to think that Doris Day was completely drilled into the 50´s image of what a woman should be like.

Hugs from Holland

Coco

[Dayniac4324]

cocochanelleke -- glad you enjoyed the song.

The thing about Doris that people forget is she was a single working woman in the movies before anyone else ! She really led the way for all the women libbers that attacked her image in the late 60's. I think they missed the point ! Oh - don't get me started !

Glad you liked the song !!

Thanks youtubemum for sharing !

[rioamigo]

She was a working woman in 2/3 of her 39 films and, of course, on her TV series...and she got her man on HER terms, not on his...

[Dayniac4324]

You are so right - again ! I really don't understand the perception that many people have of Doris. She was a working woman in films long before it was the norm. And got her man her way. I know many critics that poo pooed her in the 60's and 70's have changed their tune. Roger Ebert being one of them. I've seen him say just that. It's refreshing to me that she is getting the credit she deserves now....just waiting for the academy to honor her ! Won't happen but - I'm waiting !! lol

[rioamigo]

Roger Ebert now says that Doris is "the actress I respect the most."

[Dayniac4324]

And I have to respect him for changing his opinion and stating it !!

[Heat160]

@rioamigo

did he really? thats interesting...i love her films..

[Dayniac4324]

Yes - he sure did. I have it on something - can't remember what ! I'll have to find it.

[Singing4Disney]
