Germany is not allowing any opposition.Every German is constantly forced to take part in human rights abuses.Everybody not taking part is being tortured and/or murdered,see my channel and homepage.
This results in:

2. every (remaining) German being only good when dead.
Except for the few managing to survive without collaborating.
Ella will forever be an inspiration to me musically. I wish we had singers that aspired nearly half as close to what she has done. Amazing woman. Even in her older age... she rocks.
You dig it? What's not to dig about this stellar performance? No one will ever match the skill of Ella. Only Ella can make gibberish sound out of sight!
Of the famous words of the Netflix CEO prior to major drop in shares from result of recent price hike. I say to the 30 dislikes, you are inconsequential!
Nobody will ever top the First Lady of Song, and that's not simple opinion. Look at how long her career lasted, look at how little she degenerated and/or catered. She did what she loved, at a level that is unsurpassed, and for a length of time that will likely never be beaten.
@ATFDoc So true. Same can be said for Sarah Vaughan who had 5 decades at the top of game with no major sign of vocal decline. Infact her voice at the end of her life was of the same standard. She passed away in 1990. Her last album was released in 1989. Its remarkable how the voice did not deteriorate. Even Sinatra's voice declined towards the end. But back on topic, there will never be another Ella. Her magic, her grace....for my money (and I know its subjective) she was the best!
A lot of people missed the point of what she said a the beginning. Good music is good music. Of course when she made this, certain forms of music were not created . But still. I am sure she wouldn't like the message, but I think Ella could of gotten down with the sounds if she was alive.
Never assume you know everything about music or that your taste is supreme. There's no such thing as bad music. If you can't hear the good in everything, you're not listening well enough. Have faith in your fellow man. You'll never truly appreciate music if you never truly appreciate humanity. Music is not about talent, it's about human expression. Not everyone has Ella's voice. Autotune encourages human expression. Like it or not, rap/hiphop/pop is music and has positive effects on the world.
@PanekPL Good for you! :-) I found it ridiculous when people thought that any other genre outside of jazz or classical are NOT music at all... (not intend to generalize, but the so-called "jazz-lovers" and "classical buffs" tend to do this)
id like to see cher loyed or cherly cole or nicola roberts or any other such 'singers' take this on. there music dont mean a thing. cus it definetly doesnt have swing!!
these days they get 'cool' 'fit' people to be singings when they are worse than a strangled cat at singing, no-one actually cares wether they are good looking or not just if they can sing
Unlike any other singer you could name, Fitzgerald has the most amazing asset in the very sound of her voice: it's easily one of the most beautiful and sonically perfect sounds known to man period
I saw her with a trio at the Milwaukee Performing Arts Center sometime around 1970. Then got an extra treat at a hotel-top club where she stopped in to "jam" with George Shearing. My then-wife had a great description of Ella: Her voice is an orchestra."
@ZombieOwen23 You got that right. Seriously, anyone who would would even entertain the idea of using Autotune is pathetic. You can either sing or you can't. That's why jazz ends up with the likes of Ella, Sarah Vaughan and Karrin Allyson,and pop ends up with B. Spears and her ilk.
Who are the 28 people who disliked this??? Who in modern pop music is even remotely close to sounding this good? LOL we in America have to learn to appreciate and enjoy good music.
The problem is that you aren't allowed to dislike Ella Fitzgerald. She's a legend and even at the age she was in this video she still had it. You can't hate on honorary human beings like her. You just can't. So I say all negative comments about legends like Ella shoud be deleted!...lmao.
I'm one of those rare people who are fans of Rock, Punk, Pop, Rap and of course Jazz. People seem to have forgotten about Jazz, they don't appreciate it anymore. Im one of those rare people who do. Thumbs up if you are too.
THIS is entertainment from the golden age ladies & gentlemen, featuring a LADY whose class, elegance & eloquence is so far beyond reproach it's not funny. This is one TALENTED LADY! How dare ANYONE compare someone like Justin Bieber to this great entertainer who, in my eyes, will ALWAYS be the first lady of jazz . . . with due respect, I'd LOVE to see Justin Bieber's attempt at scat . . . don't even begin to attempt to besmurch her flawless reputation with such a laughable comparison . . .
"and Ima ne-a-lo a music love. I like good music."
