Lena Zavaroni Sings "If They Could See Me Now"

[jimdivax]

Should have been Scotland's Liza Minnelli if the'd just paced her and nurtured her sensitively!

[0samaBinDisco]

I wouldn't exactly wish being Liza Minnelli on her either. Minnelli's been a about a half a hair away from Lena's fate herself.

[Hoosiercorporal]

I remember seeing Lena on "Wonderama" and the "Tonight Show" when she was about 10 years old. What a unique, wonderful talent she had. And she was a very normal, unaffected little girl in interviews. And MegaUlster, the comments you've put on this video and a couple of others are absolutely vile. Why don't you give it a rest?

[Pearlofeire]

It must have been demanding for a 10 year old girl to practise this,talented as she was.

[akifur1]

I think she was one of the greatest talents ever produced in the UK. I find it hard to believe no one could help her, what a waste of a young life!!

[akifur1]

she was great

[xlaineyx08]

I remember listening to my nans Lena Zavaroni album and thinking it was the best thing ever! I would have been about 8 at the time and I was amazed when my mum told me how young she was.

So talented. A big loss to music when she died.

[andyboy062]

She was so talented what a loss to every one she could have done any thing the sky was the limit for her. Now she looks down from heaven no more suffering for her. She was beautiful inside and out. Gorgeous voice and giant talent.

[Pearlofeire]

It sucks that she had anorexia and it sucks that she died.

[My1giacomo]

Does any one have this with regis philbin & kathy lee gifford? this was alway's there closing song in there live act wherever they were playing. It is a song to see and hear from them both! The performed at the Warwcik musical theater in Warwick RI and it was a show to remember!

[pinkrhinos]

i'd never heard of her before and searched for the song after hearing it in the final of strictly come dancing & now i love her! such a sad way to die

[dancechick94]

Same here!!! Thats why i searched for it!! Cos Tom and Camilla rocked...and deserved to win :P

[cpToxicgirl101]

how did she die?

[pinkrhinos]

Anorexia

[cpToxicgirl101]

oh god

that sucks

[Pearlofeire]

Hopefully you mean that it sucks that she died.

[cpToxicgirl101]

i was talking about what pinkrhinos

said cuz i asked how did she die then she told me she died of anorexia then i said that.....

and plus she sings good! lolz :)

[Pearlofeire]

oh,alright ok.She is about the same age as you are now,in this video.

And please do not ever think that you,re fat because you are Slim.With a capital s.

Whan she died she was almost 36.

She was a great singer for a child-above average- but I think that it would have been better if the adults waited until she was at least 18 for her to seek fame.

[iloveanime31]

how old was she when she died?

[pinkrhinos]

She was 35

[varietylover]

As always, 5 stars for Lena...star performer and sadly missed...

[dazzlegirl123]

[dietc0kelove]

[milfila]

y r u sayin that?

[Anneghirl]

lena just makes me soooooooooo proud to be scotish

[dkmckinney1]

This is a fantastic video of a wonderful performer with a beautiful voice. THANKS for posting. I loved it. (I've watched it many times)

[girlsingerfan]

What a great performer! What a voice! It is so sad that she became ill and is no longer here. I hope you are out there still somewhere Lena, sining your heart out.

[barry6591]

I remember this clip from the 1970's, but it's te first time since I've seen it since then. Lena had an extremely powerful voice; I wonder what she would have been doing now had she not become ill. It's interesting how young people's fashions have changed - I remember my sister and her friends wearing similar clothes at the age of ten.

[bsm91662]

Cute! My favorite video of Lena. Thanks.

[jleonardmartens]

Another beautiful talent ruined by the a**holes who think growing up is bad. The entertainment moguls screw up a lot of young talent. Lena was the best, we need more great talent like her.

[ithinkyrfibbing]

lovely

Thanks

[skfanincan]

Wonderful to see this video. I used to play this Lena LP over and over! Never saw her singing it until now. Thanks again.

[robfaeedi]

Fantastic video, fantastic singer.

Thanks for posting

[25thNovember1970]

Thank you for putting this back on. It's one of my favourites.

The Batchelors fairly got their money's worth from this girl. What a tireless little performer.......
