[awesomeviolet1]

I'm supposed to learn this song for my solo class and I think this is thee best version for my voice and definitely my favorite so far.

[lightfoot828]

I love her voice and it's fun to rediscover her talent and performances through Youtube...thanks for sharing...I am currently reading 'Dream a little dream of me...the life of 'Mama' Cass Elliot written by Eddi Fiegel...i recommend it to all of her fans...it is very well written and researched...lots of detail about her personal and musical life...her many friendships in and out of the entertainment business...you can probably find it on line...i just wanted to share that with her fans.

[MrSkylark27]

I have listened to almost every version of this song on you tube and this 1 is the absolute best she was really special .

[denewst01]

[Desiree50able]

[scjism]

[WoWgamer38]

[dumonceauxable]

If you want to learn how to enunciate (sing every word so that it is clearly understood!), listen to Cass Eliott. She does it to perfection! And such a beautiful voice!

[bunnybugerseatkesha]

God rest your beautiful soul Eliot. God bless your beautiful wonderous voice that warms our hearts with love, joy, peace, and happieness. You truly are, and always will be, my hero. Forever.

[meeseification]

Wow, I didn't know she sang this... amazing!

[szolnokmeichel]

Cass Te is ott voltál a legjobbak közt!

[Sayseeee]

Amazing, love it ! 

[Tejano44]

Rest in peace dear soul .

[Hardliner1269]

What a genuice class act.

Such talent & potential missed

[dsombra58]

One song rendition Cass did that I'd never heard was her version of "Lift Every Voice and Sing", she truly owns the song and performs it with amazing grace and power. I still miss her!

[loulou2lou]

Even though I grew up during her era I never realized what a strong and beautiful voice she had.

[jhankri]

the Mamas and Papas would not have been had there not been Cass Elliot

[crazysingingchick]

@jhankri It would have been the Mama and the Papas and that just sounds silly. :)

[waywardmom]

What a wonderful voice I never knew her but I miss her already.

[patriotsdesign]

WoW! I never knew she did this song, great version, terrible loss for all of us.

[KittykatColorado]

Never ever heard much of her music...but now, I'm in love!

[NinjaGhostScorpion]

If I could go back in time, I would warn her about that ham sandwich.

[swimmer706]

@NinjaGhostScorpion I have found, when ones words are no better than silence, one should remain silent.

[MrSkylark27]

i have never heard a better rendition of this song ever there is so much heart and genuine emotion,besides the greatness of her voice RIP mama cass

[robertmarc1]

She was gifted with such a fabulous voice but it wasn't just the voice that made this special lady but what she put in to the songs she sang. She put her self in to all her songs and thats what made them all so great

[GapJustin]

Always a delight to hear Cass sing...anything. Her voice touches me so deep inside and makes me feel so warm and wonderful!!

[FrauVonSinnfrei]

reminds me on the 1950s ♥

beautiful voice, awsum woman!

[MokaDan69]

I truly think this is the best version of this song.... :-) really sad song. Long Live Cass.

[gregbmandel]

Mama's Big Ones is a great album as well.

[marcostar57]

Great version of a great song by a great artist!

[coolsweetgroovy]

That's LOVELY! thanks for posting...I love Mama Cass...such a special soul and that warm silky voice. Fab.! xxx

[latinguy67]

Such an amazing talent gone way too quickly. I remember her being on the Scooby Doo cartoons when I was a kid. She was so versatile and amazing. May she rest.

[SexyStudChris]

[romanyman]

One of my favourite songs and what a performance by Mama Cass ! Got to admit This really took me back .I always liked Mama Cass but thought of her as a pop singer period ! On this she show's how she could have handled anything from Jazz through pop to Soul. Wonderful post ! Is there an album with this on it ?

[rearuss]

Ok Lea as per your request:-)

[shaurora26]

[MURPHNSPUD]

[Federalette]

There has never been another one like Cass Elliot. Her voice was so pure and natural. Imagine the music we have missed out on due to her early departure. Such a beautiful person, gone too soon.

[NETWORK23STUDIOS]

I miss you mama Cass. I'll be seeing you.

[pompeyangie]

[carlmonico]

[andrewplanetyum]

Just like Judy Garland, Cass gave her whole self and her heart when she sang and even when she wasn't.XXXXXXXX

[andrewplanetyum]

Just like Judy Garland, Cass gave her whole self and her heart when she sang and even when she wasn't.XXXXXXXX

[andrewplanetyum]

Yes. Thank goodness these people chose to come to Earth and share their beauty, their message and their love. We love you Mama. XXXXXXXXXXXXX

[foreverashcroft]

how beautiful is this, i adore this song, i didnt know she had covered it.. oh im so happy to have found this..

[iron1057]

No female singer today could sing like she did. The best female voice ever.

[written12]

Thanks so much for posting this great rendition.

Also, your comments on Cass' musical background is interesting. She really had influences many of her generation didn't. If she had lived, she would have had a long career, given that she was such a talented interpreter of timeless songs.

A question- I don't know her work all that well. What solo album(s) of hers would you recommend?

Again, thanks, Christopher.

[christopher60s]

Hi, thanks for your comment :)

I would recommend you to hear Cass's first RCA solo album "Cass Elliot - 1972". I also like her album with Dave Mason, and her very first one, Dream A Little Dream of Me.

[1997Roscoe]

@christopher60s Thank you this is very nice and good quality.

[BobTheChannel]

wonderful wonderful wonderful....She was outstanding!

[amazmace]

A beautiful lady with an awesome voice.

[mgrella63]

she was pure magic!! Amazing Talent!!! So sad we lost her so young!! RIP You were a beautiful soul!!!

[SuicideandCrush13]

mama cass is pretty solid

[kso808]

Thanks so much for posting this. I never got a chance to see this TV special when it originally aired. Do you possibly have video of her singing it? So many singers have done this song, but I feel that Mama Cass' version is one of the best, with her bell-like voice . . .

[christopher60s]

Unfortunetly, "Don't Call Me Mama anymore" was never realeased in DVD format. But it's not said that it will never show up. There's some speech about it :)

[landrykkb]

@christopher60s I hope so because I'd buy it!

[GladysCassKarenAnnie]

Oh good! Taddy hasn't unleashed his terror on this song yet! This is undoubtedly one of Cass's best (though I say that about all of her songs). What a voice!

[taddyd1]

GladysCass,

This is a song worthy of the The Devine Cass, unlike that shclock on "the road" album. I love the 1st RCA and solo Dunhill albums too. Cass was famous for knocking lousy songs herself, and she was probably to high to realize how bad most of those songs were. She should have been singing more songs by Leah, Janis Ian , Leonard Cohen, Randy Newman, John Sebastian etc or standards like this. Her singing on that ablum is great though.

love,

ArethaBaez

[ireallyloveggs]

i wish i could have been born in this time era i love her too bad she died from a heart attack

[DollyAU]

Absolutely beautiful Chris thankyou so much for posting this it's my favourite song of Cass's Just love it :)

Suzy xxxx

[CelticBeanSidhe]

The sound of Cass's voice always makes me tear up. I wish I could have known her, she seems so genuine and strong. Thank-you for posting.

[ManWytch]

Thank you Christopher for sharing this Cass song! My Diva, Cass Elliott! What a talent, voice and Grand Dame of Rock & Roll... She truely is the Gertrude Stein of the early sixties/seventies... & modern day rock/pop...There truely is A NEW DAY COMING! I'll be seeing you....Cass!!!

[bobbyc0117]

Christopher, I have been listening to all your Cass stuff the last couple of days, What an amazing talent. I want to say Thank you for taking me back to a simpler time.

[christopher60s]

Thanks for your great coment! You're always welcome  :)

[xChairx]
