Johnny Mathis - Didn't We

Many can identify with the lyrics of this lovely version of the classic song, "Didn't We." Johnny sings this one, as he does all of his songs, with just enough emotion to touch the soul. I love it and I hope you enjoy it too.

Original album: "Love Theme From Romeo and Juliet," 1969.




This one can be purchased on mp3 online. I've heard many of Johnny's albums/songs of the past are being brought back in CD format now. If anyone knows if this song is on one of the new CDs, please let me know and I will put the title of the CD here. What great news that is!

I have loved Johnny Mathis since he first came on the scene. "Didn't We" is one of my very favorite songs. His version is so hauntingly beautiful and moving. Thanks for making this available for all to enjoy !!!

Johnny' s version of "Didn't We?" and "Turn Around, Look At Me" are my two favorite recordings of all time. Both are poignant, beautiful songs, sung in a deeply moving, deeply heartfelt manner by the incomparable Johnny. There are a few lovely versions of "Didn't We?" but the only one that brings tears to the eyes and a lump to the throat is this one.

Thank you, ReadMeReadYou, for making this video available.

You're so welcome. It's interesting that you mentioned, "Turn Around Look At Me" because I have that one on my mind for a long time but I'm stuck (artistically). I love the way he sings this and that as well. But I love just about everything he sings. I put my favorites up, except for requests. Thanks for coming by and commenting and I'm happy you liked the song too.

In the movie Mr Hollands Opus, there is a line where he says, if you don't know what a song is about, then you can't sing it. Johnny Mathis showed he knew exactly what this song was about. He put the right tone and phrasing into it, that by the end of the song there is a lump in your throat. Perfectly delivered.

Johnny is one of the Top 3 male 'pop' vocalists of the entire 20th Century...and that means, of all time. This version is Mathis - perfect.

The original by Richard Harris, is also A-1. Harris doesn't pretend to have JM's vocalism, but he has emotion...and, for RH, his version is perfect, too.

Na fantástica composição de Jimmy Web e na fabulosa interpretação de Johnny Mathis, um dos ultimos grandes interpretes da música comtemporânea !

Salve Johnny - Salve Jimmy !!! Ivan Bocalon

Flawless vocals and phrasing. Check out his live performance of

"If You Remember Me" on YouTube - with Marvin Hamlisch at the piano/orchestra. He has no peer. Bravo.
