  • ¡¡¡maravillosa!!! gracias!!!

  • i like how she says who wrote the song etc...love her voice<3 

  • That´s greatness!

  • I loooove Miss Sarah. What always tickled me was her speaking voice vs. that singing voice. Cigarette smoking notwithstanding, I've never seen such breath control. Forever Sarah Vaughan.

  • Damn!

  • nasıl?!

  • This woman has a romantic, mystic, and very mysterious side to her singing and she makes you want to listen, and just wonder what is going through her mind when she sings the songs that she sings also did she ever really know how truly divine that she was through and through not just her singing she is greatly missed and loved, and no one should ever have anything to say bad about someone they did not know as a person so please be kind. Thank you

  • cant beat that NOBODY can

  • Wonderful!

  • If this woman cant make you FEEL who can??????

  • she's made me cry, i can´t believe it, her voice... i dont have words to discribe that she´s make me feel

  • What most people don't realize is that Sassy passed away in 1991. She had lung cancer...and listen to that beautiful voice!

  • @barztool she died in 1990.

  • @buffalmacco76 You're right...I knew that too! Thanks for keeping me straight.

  • There are five people on here who don't know a damned thing about great music

  • superbe ! magnifique ! divin ! .......

  • Im cry,, love Sassy forever too...

  • What a Lady.

  • Sassy Sarah Vaughn, with a voice smooth as silk. She was one of the greatest jazz singers that gave the world beautiful, soothing music that could tame the tazmanian devil.

  • when did she started changing the first line to "look at me i am as hot as i can be" ?

    i love those small interpretations she uses from time to time

  • I discovered this queen in the 1990's and loved her madly since.

  • Girl friend is every inch Talent.....RIP.....With all my respect....

  • Sarah's vocal cords took her down to a baritone range all the way up to soprano with all different qualities as she conveyed the meaning of ever word. She was a jazz performer like no other. And those three lungs of air that she controlled to phrase the music with her own signature. Johnny Mathis, who is credited with having the greatest hit of Misty, mentions Sarah's and other's names of those who preceeded him. Each version is worthy of being in the music hall of fame!

  • fantastic!!!!

  • This song was made for her. Love her.

  • Bloody smooth, sensuous, gripping.

  • That's how to sing 'Misty'... Greatest...

  • Merci à toi internaute, dont j' ai oublié le nom qui m' a suggéré la filiation Sarah Vaughan  - Amy Vinehouse. Et donc merci aussi YouTube.

  • Class. Nobody even knows what that is anymore.

  • I really don't think it gets better than sassy

  • They say nothing's perfect- but I'm sorry- her voice was........ silk & satin just flows from her when she sings. Thank you Mom for giving me my ear & my love of music. Sara was one of my Mom's faves & even when I was a liitle boy & she would play her records on Sunday afternoon, Sara's voice would stand out to me. It was an instrument. My Mom was a big fan of Frank, Ella, Billy E., Sammy, & Joe Williams & Tony Bennett. I like them all, but Sara's my fav!!!!

  • @whirlaway05 her voice has such a character to it it's so epic

  • Cool!

  • OMG! Thanks!

  • MNJetter, Yes. Mmmmm I like your comment, for me u-tube is one of the best things

    to come out of our technological revolution, I got so carried away listening my coffeee is cold, maxthevid

  • What a singer, I just love her phrasing and the melody of her voice; sweet, so sweet.

  • You know how! Sing it Sassy!

  • This is nice, but does not compare to Dakota Staton. I still have the vinyl of Ms. Staton's version from 1959 and it is beautiful. Dakota was in control of every note.

  • @MSTUBBY240 Staton's voice lacks the same texture and depth and fullness that Sarah's has. I would have to disagree with your opinion

  • PERFECTION!

    Peace and love...

  • She's the undisputed masteress of the slow meandering melody.

  • My God,it's beautiful!!!

  • While I can recognize her talent, I don't care for her style. I prefer Ella's. No knock to Ms. Vaughn; she takes the song in a different direction than I want to go.

  • Most jazz makes me want to sing.

    Sarah Vaughan makes me want to listen.

  • @MNJetter Great song, and a great performance from Sara. Try to get the version of a Spanish group called "Lone star" He was the voice and played piano also. Great and different version His name was Pedro Genè. You wont regret

  • So well said.

  • @MNJetter Makes me think I can but I know I cant in public. Certainly won't sound or give the feeling like this.

  • @MNJetter me too.

    i like her voice.when i heard her at the fist time.

  • @MNJetter Amen!

  • @MNJetter Very well put my friend you certainly have a way with words.

  • Fantastici...

    Grazie

  • i feel in heaven...

  • bravo!!

  • WOW ! That's REAL S O U L !

  • Sassy had a beautiful vocal tone, which deepened and mellowed over time. Her mastery in phrasing a ballad allowed her to extract deep emotion, even from a well worn standard such as this Errol Garner classic. I found the last decade and a half of her work the mosty rewarding of all. She matured into the greatest Jazz vocalist of the late 70s and early 80s. When she died in 1990, I was shocked, because it seemed that she had defied time and would live forever. I suppose, in a way, she has.

  • What a brith! she can sing during 1min without brithing! was für ein menscliche stimme. Elle change de voix; grave aigu. Waou

  • Sarah knew she had cancer and was supposed to die in months in October 1989, the day she should open at the NYC Blue note. I was there, she did not do the show and appeared next day, obviously disturbed but nice! -, but we did not know why at that time. Here, a magic and sublime moment of The Divide, doing her utmost, besides everything. Art is bigger than everything. And also was Sarah!

  • A true great. I love it!! the band are great nothing good makes television now thank god for u tube telly is dead. Its nice to see a woman singing with soul emotion and gusto what a vocal range. Quality

  • she is just teasing us with her voice...she can do ANYTHING!!!! she such a f****ing genius

  • beautifull. Simply deliscious

  • Con Frank Collet, Bob Maize y Harold Jones.

    Tokio, 1990.

  • That means this would have been within weeks or months of her April 1990 death. I don't think so.

  • Music for real jazz lovers

  • I dont think this is 1990, maybe mid or late 80s ?

  • Wonderful as expected. As always.

    Are you sure this was 1990?

  • i love SASSY....FOREVER....

  • Simply otherworldly.

  • Pure Greatness!!!!!!!!!!! * * * * * !!

  • One word comes to mind : amazing

  • the divine one-we love you madly-sarah could sing her heart out on this tune-and she uses dynamics so beautifully here-the whole presentation is subdued, but just gorgeous-this is an example of her real power in the lower range section---there has never been a singer who could hit those notes-wow-zken in california

  • In fact she what she looked in sounded like in her last major appearance on TV on the Grammy Awards....Look up "So Many Stars" on Youtube

  • 1985 around that time. I saw her live in Boston in 1989

  • it says 1990 on the video...

  • That is most likely when it was published, not when it was recorded.

  • the trio she has here fits around 85 as well. There is a lovely concert of her in Paris called in the City of Lights. George Gaffney was her pianist throughout the latter part of the 80s

  • George Gaffney was my Dad. I'm not even kidding.

  • You are lucky davidhazard71
