This is so beautiful and so well don. This song is noted for having been performed by 500 different artists! Even so, I think Johnny has the best rendition. He is truly a magnificent artist.

I fell in love with Johnny Mathis when I was 10 years old. My sister who was a teenager bought his recording of Chances Are and I was hooked. My collection of JM records, CD's and tapes is extensive. I am a lot older than 10 and I'm am still so very much in love with JM, he is one of a kind.

WOW! Johnny Boy just smacked it out of the park! Incredible performance.

What's great about this arrangement is the inclusion of the soliliquoy at the beginning: "And now the purple dust of twilight time", which leads up to the famous opening of the song, ending with "the music of the years gone by".

The best version of this song I have ever heard. It just doesn't get any better than this man singing anything.
-
I absolutely love this version of the song, and I've never heard it before, so thank you!beautiful

I would remove 75% of the instrumentation. It just gets in Johnny's way. Make that 85%.

The two best versions of this song are are by Nat King Cole and Johnny Mathis
Cybernautev,
Johnny was singing, with Henry Mancini on "Cool TV," when this photo was captured. As you said, he looked right into the camera at 2:35-36. That is the latest video you uploaded (on October 18, 2008), titled, "Dear Heart Moon River by Johnny Mathis." Thought everyone would enjoy watching for that, when they check out that video! Thanks for all the ones you're sharing with us! Shirley

Caught that, ehhhhh? You are correct!
Actually this was a video I ripped off YouTube. Then one day the video was gone, so I thought I'd go to my stash and put it back up.

There's a background story on this picture. When Johnny was singing his song he went out of his way to avoid the camera. The camera men went through a lot of trouble to get a face shot of him, but he'd keep dodging them and all they could get was a side view. By accident he happened to turn and look right into the camera (this shot), and upon realizing that he quickly turned away!
