[btinsley1]

[zawinulsyn]

Englebert does a fabulous job on this great song. Check it out.

Thanks so much for sharing this man's brillant mind and talent!

at 1:42, after a little research, i found out he is referring to Anthony Newley and Leslie Bricusse. They wrote "What kind of fool am i" (grammy, song of the year, 1963), "candy man" and "pure imagination" from Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, "goldfinger" and "you only live twice".

at the risk of sounding like a ridiculous cornball, I'd say that Jimmy's huge output of songs has been one long brilliant musical

[humanne02]

Just this one song alone was worth getting kicked out of college for.

[darkoanton5]

He's sings it so well these days. He sings it better than anyone else.

i wanted to sing this song from a karaoke version but i could not get the emotion that jimmy had done...he's the only one who can give justice to the song in my observation

[eyz091]

first time i heard jimmy webb original version of didn't we and i was so touch, a very beautiful song

[15bluethings]

love him then and now...

[dlobnierr]

OK, that speech really gave me the chills.. he's a genius.

the song is, of course, a classic; the performance is rare and remarkable; the before-song patter is sweet lagniappe. thanks for a great gift.
