  • Performer - Deanna Durbin
    Music - Francesco Paolo Tosti
    Lyrics - George John Whyte-Melville
    Goodbye, forever! Goodbye, forever!
    Goodbye! Goodbye! Goodbye!
    Hush! a voice from the far away!
    "Listen and learn," it seems to say,
    "All the tomorrows shall be as today."
    "All the tomorrows shall be as today."
    The cord is frayed, the cruse is dry,
    The link must break, and the lamp must die --
    Goodbye to Hope! Goodbye! Goodbye!
    Goodbye to Hope! Goodbye! Goodbye!
    Falling leaf and fading tree,
    Lines of white in a sullen sea,
    Shadows rising on you and me;
    Shadows rising on you and me;
    The swallows are making them ready to fly,
    Wheeling out on a windy sky.
    Goodbye to Hope! Goodbye! Goodbye!
    Goodbye to Hope! Goodbye! Goodbye!
    What are we waiting for? Oh, my heart!
    Kiss me straight on the brows! and part again!
    Again! my heart! my heart! What are we waiting for, you and I?
    A pleading look, a stifled cry.
    Goodbye, forever! Goodbye, forever!
    Goodbye! Goodbye!

    She was one of my childhood favorite singers. I saw this film on TV when I was 6 years old and never forgot her or this song. May she rest in peace.

    Deanna could sing rings around the frightened macaws of today. It is a shame she couldn't have had a couple of seasons at the Met. She could sing anything...and doit all brilliant;y!

    If anything, she was beyond the Met. From age 15, the Met tried to recruit Durbin (to this day the youngest to star at the Met was 18). There were always rumors that she would sing at the Met, but they came to naught. In the late 30s and 40s she was one of the highest paid women in America. Through her movies, she reached a far wider audience that she ever would have singing on stage. To hear her with a top Met star, check out my post of Deanna and Jan Peerce.

    This is from film- Because of Him 1946.

  • @smironass
    @smironass Před 10 lety +15

    The name of the movie is "Because of Him" Franchot Tone is playwright Paul Taylor who doesn't care for the up and coming starlet and tries to get rid of her in this plot behind the song.

    I have not heard this aria before from any singer. Deanna does just a matchless job with it. What movie is it from, and how old was she when she sang it. To me, she set the standard for singers with operatic capability who move and act. Nowadays a diva just can't stand and sing. She has to move as well. Deanna could do that. Imagine her on the operatic stage in the 40's and 50's, maybe beyond.She would have struck gold with her acting as well and set the standard. Bravo, diva Deanna!

    One of the great dilemmas with musical pictures is how to integrate a song into a movie without bringing the story to a standstill. I find this scene quite funny myself - they mimed quite a lot and only talked during the orchestral interlude. Durbin made studio recordings of all her movie songs for Decca. Alas, I don't have her studio version of "Goodbye" yet. Compare the two posts of Durbin's "Because" to see and hear the difference between movie and studio versions.

    Love the folks looking at the elevator door as "the voice" goes down... but why didn't the door open on that floor when all those people were waiting by it?!! LOL
    Overall a really fun sequence! The song is absolutely beautiful...and Little Miss Deanna Durbin always does a wonderful job...

    It's just an individual song, not an aria. Tosti never wrote opera, which is a shame for the rest of us.

    Mario lanza wanted deanna to sing with him l think they would have sounded beautiful together l wish she had agreed

  • @gregoryagogo
    @gregoryagogo Před 14 lety +4

    @gregoryagogo Figure out why the elevator didn't stop! Maybe this elevator is old school, and was dependent on the operator who was distracted by her singing... now that's a story I can live with!

    Deanna was pregnant while filming this movie, and she's obviously holding water here, which softens her features. This scene is unrealistic, If a beautiful woman were chasing me while singing like that, I think that I'd slow down and let her catch me. On the other hand, the words of the song are completely against the action, not uncommon in Durbin comedy routines.

    Not sure why she's singing this practically backwards.

    • @Susan10093

      +RMPsumma - Probably to fit into the action on screen. Deanna sings the chorus first, followed by the second verse, then the first verse. However the interlude leading up to the final chorus is in proper order. Regardless of the order, I don't believe you will find a better rendition of "Goodbye." I just love how she transitions from "a stifled cry" to the opening "goodbye" of the last chorus (4:02 to 4:10).

    It irritates me when a singer DOESN'T move. It also irritates me when a writer of comments cannot spell or complete a sentence. The voice is what matters, irritation aside.
