A tribute to the great Gilda Radner, arguably the funniest comedienne of all-time, who died way too young but left behind a legacy of laughter. Set to Gilda herself singing "Honey (Touch Me With My Clothes On)" from "Gilda Live."

Brian - what a wonderful tribute. Thank you, I remember her show at the WinterGarden as if it were yesterday.

@sesresu Thanks for the kind words - she is still so missed. Check out my book "Gene Wilder: Funny and Sad" to read more about her and her marriage to Gene.

I Had no idea that the comical genius that is Gilda Radner could sing! She sings so beautifully. Truly a devine talent that we lost too too soon:(

What a great tribute! She made me smile! Nothing compares to her dance with Steve Martin on SNL! That was true brilliance! We loved you, Gilda!

This video was absolutely beautiful, her friends and family should see it. They would be so touched...

It's hard to believe she's been gone for over twenty years. What a gem. Who didn't love Gilda...

You're right about her being the funniest comedienne of all time. I rank her in the character actress category since she did so many. People often think that Lucille Ball is the funniest ever, but Lucy only ACTED funny. She was always telling people that. Gilda could come up with stuff few of us would dare to approach...i.e. Roseanne Roseannadanna's thoughts. This is a great tribute you put together. I love Gilda and I love doing vocal impressions of her. She is missed very much here.

Bless her heart. She used to make me laugh so had when I was a kid.

RIP

I still love you Gilda. And I still love the Chocolate man, your husband Gene Wilder. You both made my life happier. I have Gilda Radner paperdolls. I am reminded of the song, I Will Remember You, when I think of you and your handsome hubby. Roseanne roseannadanna forever.

I loved when she sat in the oversized chair and acted like a little girl ...She was hysterically funny...loved her and felt so badly about her ovarian cancer..But she brought light to this silent killer...Bless you Gilda

One of the funniest ladies ever. Miss her terribly. What a shame we lost her so young. What a talent.

Did Gene Wilder ever get remarried?

@wamphyriscurse That's the beauty of free speech, everyone is entitled to an opinion and has the right to express it. I abhor censorship and anything that takes away our civil rights. You may not like what others have to say, but they have the right to say it.
