- 1979 - Leonard Whiting sings cover for the song "You Don't Know Me"
Per comment by George Peter Tingley...
"It was in the Spring of 1979 that I got to rehearse and perform with English stage and film actor Leonard Whiting of Zeffirelli ROMEO AND JULIET fame. We recorded three songs in one of the dorms at Mills College in Oakland where he was guest teaching in the drama department. YOU DON'T KNOW ME was the last of the three sings we did - Leonard on vocal, me on piano. We also brought in a string quartet for which I had fun arranging."
There will never be a more perfect Romeo than Leonard Whiting.
Never! ❤️
I totally agree. As we haven't read his poems, we would be as delighted the same way we are when healing this sond
The BEST Romeo
I totally agree 👍

I never knew Leonard Whiting was such a wonderful singer. Excellent voice. I want to hear him sing more.
What a voice...Leonard Whiting will always be Romeo as Olivia Hussey will always be Juliet
Самый лучший и красивый Ромео, был, есть и останется на века!!!!😍Фильм Франко Дзеффирелли самый наилучший! Когда то я его смотрела много раз, и продолжаю периодически просматривать, этот фильм моя любовь на всю мою жизнь! Оливия Хасси и Леонард Уайтинг мои кумиры!😍😊
Leonard Whiting was truly the perfect Romeo to ever perform the part. He had the passion of Love and desire embodied in him to the perfect proportions.
Olivia Hussey was the sweetest Juliet and together these two players with the words of the greatest writer in history to play through their souls as their guide, the greatest performance of Romeo and Juliet was given to the ages on film. Forever to be cherished by all who see this film ❤ I dare you not to cry at their true goodbye, I can never escape the sadness of it.
The loveliest Romeo ever and his singing voice.....why was it kept a secret? Bravo, Leonard.
Ну почему Оливия и Леонард не вместе? А ведь какая пара красивая была! Видимо так судьба распорядилась. Но все равно они счастливы в другой жизни. Ну Оливия была в молодости красавицей, а что с ней стало сейчас? Годы берут своё, она превратилась в страшилку, а дочка стала красавицей.
He sang vocals on Alan Parsons “The Raven”. It’s amazing.
Qué bella voz❗❤️❤️❤️❤️
Qué belleza ❗
@@user-ft9io8cb8h странно, как отличаются вкусы) Я на днях впервые увидела как изменились артисты--ничего не знала о них и фильм не пересматривала. Про Оливию подумала, что она хороша, хотя уже и не та, что была подростком. А у дочери, даже юной, вроде бы и красота какая-то современная есть, но не нравится абсолютно, ничего чарующего... Может быть это флёр той потрясающей истории любви. Или возраст мой был тогда такой же-- попадание 100%. А эта девочка никак не близка...
Didn't know he was hiding that beautiful voice you should have shared it with the world everyone doesn't know you could sing like this
the most beautiful, fantastic actor and singer Leonard Whiting will always be the best Romeo of our lives. I was 19 when whatched this movie first time in Russian Language. Now age of 70 i feel so much passion, and beauty in Olivia and Leonard love in the movie and in life. I wish them long life and to keep mamory of this unparallel performance.

Soon after Romeo and Juliet came out in movie theaters in the late 60s, my older sister's high school class went to see it on a field trip. She must have really liked it because she bought an LP album of the movie that had the dialogue of many scenes from the movie as well as the beautiful songs. I was 10 in 1968. I'm not sure when I first listened to the LP, but I remember sitting for hours in our basement listening to the balcony scene, the first meeting scene and the death scene over and over until I had memorized them. I watched these scenes on YT yesterday and couldn't believe I still remember every word of the dialogue! It really took me back in time in my own life, remembering the glorious feeling and experience of being in love for the first time. Now I can also see and appreciate what amazing and talented actors they were at such young ages. Because they were so near the right ages, they truly brought Shakespeare's characters alive for the first time. Wish they would do a re-release in theaters for the 50th anniversary of this wonderful film.
My gosh! I thou I was the only bought that L.P. ~ didn't have video and all that back in the day! That album was the only way to relive every scene in the movie! I still have mine. :)
If I'm not mistaken, I think he was to have sung the title song ~ but it was given to someone else ~ what a waste. Still love you Leonard!
😍
Nice, Lou Ann. Your personal R&J story comes alive. I have that fantastic album too. Can you believe the surprising beautiful voice of Lenoard Whiting here? Wow. I guess it's true LW does look like Zac Efron, but the idea of it is such a culture shock, I'd rather not consider it.
I did the same! I memorized every word and acted out the scenes. I was 11
@Lou Hanne Windsort I know exactly what album you mean ! I love it so much, I often listen it while doing things on my phone. It’s amazing, the way they talk is incredible and so sweet, my favorite scene is the balcony scene. It’s an orgasm if I may say so to listen to. (btw I was born in 2004 so I wasn’t around but still loves this movie very much ) ☺️❤️
I love how Leonard and Olivia seem to have a wonderful, enduring friendship.
My goodness.....it's hard to believe that the world never knew he could sing, too! He sings as well as he looked! He could have been a superstar. What happened?!?! The world should have known about him.😔
Its a pity he didn't sing in the movie. A beautiful voice. Leonard will always be Romeo!!!
Yes, Mr. Whitting will ONLY be Romeo, just as Ms. Hussey will only be Juliet. How many can recall any subsequent movies that these two have done? I'm lucky to remember Olivia in 'Jesus of Nazareth ' as Mary and a bio about Mother Theresa and vaguely recall a movie about Frankenstein for Leonard... and that's it! They got type-cast, which can prove a detriment to the careers of many actors. I never knew he could sing! Both of these talented and very good-looking actors should be better known to movie lovers.
It was not hos role.
@@deisepalmieri6377 hos role.... huh?
@@captebbtide пел в церковном хоре подростком пел в театре и даже был на гастролях в Москве и Берлине.
Какой красивый и талантливый актер,а как прекрасно поет ! И как больно и обидно что так недооценен!Как жаль...
ОДНОГО РОМЕО НА ВСЮ ЖИЗНЬ ХВАТИТ. ЭТО ВСЕГДА С НИМ И НАВСЕГДА!!!
Это не так.Леонард Уайттнг сделал достаточно для того чтобы считать его состоявшейся творческой личностью. А то что он избирательно относился к ролям очень хорошо.Настоящее искусство избирательно.Он прекрасно живет и создаёт свою музыку.
@@user-qe9io2ue3x как интересно, а где ещё можно послушать о нем и его пение? На любом языке. Спасибо
К сожалению, такие роли как Шекспировский Ромео уникальны. Леонардо - лучший Ромео из всех виденных мною ❤
@@johndee4518 Полностью с Вами согласна!
He is the best Romeo!!!! And what a beautiful voice!!!!💖
I had a huge crush on him when I was a teenager. He has an amazing acting skill as well as an amazing voice!!! ❤🎼🎶🎙 God bless him!❤
His voice is heavenly. The gold, nay platinum standard for Romeos, ever.
I'm surprised he didn't have a musical career as well. I fell in love the first time I saw him.
Both he and Olivia are just so beautiful. Breathtaking.
Me too, Heather. Just gorgeous isn't he?!
Heather Gall ditto kiddo! Major teen crush for me too! 💕
My gosh what a voice! Go listen to him sing in Italian ohmygod the man has a voice geez!!!
I forgot he had to sing playing Dodger on stage! 🌠
Same! I was a kid when I first saw Romeo and Juliet, when he first came out I was like, "Woah!" and especially that scene where they first meet at the dance, he took Olivia's hand and when she looked down his smiling face filled the camera, I was just hypnotized. And Olivia was gorgeous too.
Он был и остаётся - Ромео, мальчиком и мечтой нашей юности, красив до безумия!!!!
He is so handsome still and his voice is beautiful! My heart is breaking right now.
Леонард! Ну как можно быть таким скромным и закапывать свои таланты в землю с таким голосом? 🤦♀️
I saw R and J at school in English Lit years after it was made, I was 15 and fell head over heels in love with Leonard, I just couldn’t stop thinking about him and it went on for years! I still think he’s one of the most handsome men there has ever been.
After Alain Delon
@@zoomlegend5255 Not to me.
The other Alys yes, I very much understand you. He was very good-looking at 16-17, especially in that movie, which added to his image and appeal. Unfortunately his good looks faded way too quickly. Looking at him aged it’s hard to believe it’s the same person. He was is also quite short, 5’8”. I knew a guy who was so gorgeous at 16, he stopped traffic. People couldn’t stop staring at him everywhere. At 18 he was still good-looking, but nothing like he was at 16. Then he totally lost his looks after 30. It was incredible and very sad.
@@zoomlegend5255 Delon is 82 now and looks 98. He was such a handsome fellow, I envied him like crazy.
@@zoomlegend5255 Tienes toda la razón, como Olivia Hussey no volvió a ser tan bella y tan "llenita", como en esa película de Romeo y Julieta. Ah lo que es la juventud entre los 14 y los 16.
I only am aware of Lenard Whiting from Romeo and Juliet, but I am surprised about how great his voice is😇
HE MUST HAVE HAD A TERRIBLE MANAGER!!! This is beautiful-he could have made an album or several! I saw THE movie (Romeo &Juliet) when I was 13, I can't understand why he wasn't more famous-He had it all looks& talent and he was obviously very sensitive. I have THE movie , I hope he's happy..
Carole Williams I agree....he should have had a much bigger career! He had it all....
Wow I've been a fan of his for fifty years and never knew he could sing like this! Wonderful talent!
I am upset I never knew what a beautiful singing voice he had❣️ He could have done so much more than he was given the chance to do.
He was so so handsome and beautiful, so gifted in so many ways! I adored him at first viewing of Romeo and Juliet.. I was 5 yrs old. He could have been a successful singer, outright just on his own.
he has such a beautiful singing voice...
Lovely!!! Thanks Ciro
I didn't know Leonard could sing so beautifully.
‘What is a youth’ was originally filmed and recorded by Lenard Whiting. He states that in one of the more recent CZcams interviews.

О,ДА!!!
He never received the recognition he deserved. Beautiful voice, and the Best actor ever. To do Romeo the way he did, brought Romeo to life. The Best Romeo and Juliet Ever. Was he singing this to Olivia ???? Sigh!!! Did he not put out an album????
he was oerfect.
perfect
Yeah! He deserves an Oscar for best actor! Never seen a better Romeo than him!

I feel like this song was for Olivia .... they were so perfect to each other from the very beginning.. Oh what a film ... Romeo and Juliette ....
I always wondered if he really loved her, but said nothing about it.
Каждая девочка,после фильма желала такой же светлой и чистой любви!!!СПАСИБО!!!
Красивый романтичный мужчина !!! Прекрасен во всех возрастах !!!
The best Romeo for all times.
Such a beautiful singing voice. Romeo and Juliet forever!
Best Romeo ever! ❤️
Beautiful. All the girls I knew had crushes on Paul, but not me. Leonard Whiting was mine.
Who is Paul I wanna know his full name ?
@@BunnyHop102 Paul McCartney also a great singer in the swinging sixties
@@BunnyHop102 The Beatles ~ Paul McCartney.
Us true children of the sixties don't need to ask who Paul was. We always know. He was the one and only Paul until today
Моя любимая песня в исполнении Леонарда Уайтинга!💋👍💋
Beautiful voice! Love him and Olivia. Forever Romeo and Juliet! ❤️❤️
What a beautiful voice.He should have pursued a singing career as well. It's all in him.. beauty and talent
ОБРАЗ РОМЕО ВОСХИЩАЕТ!!!Он точно с другой планеты... СПАСИБО ВСЕМ!!!
Любовь преображает человека и делает его прекраснее чем все окружающие.
Необыкновенный Леонард , такой мужчина нравится всем женщинам без исключения ! ❤
Надо ведь таким красивым быть. Необыкновенно хорош.
Самый красивый Ромео ,за всю историю кинематографа и Джульетта ему под стать ! Надо же ! ,я и не знала что он ещё и поет ,к тому же голос великолепный ...... .
Он с этого начинал, и с мюзиклом "Оливер" в 14 лет приезжал в Москву на гастроли, в интервью потом об этом рассказывал.
A beautiful voice and an excellent actor ! A very talented artist!
WONDERFUL MUSIC...MARVELOUS VOICE AND UNFORGETTABLE ACTOR!!!!!!
So beautiful Leonard almost made me cry! I’ve loved Romeo and Juliet since I’ve first seen it.... thank you Franco for making one of the best movies ever... in my top 5.... I’ve lost count on how many times I’ve seen it... the first true love everyone dreams of.... with someone as handsome as you!!! Your wife is a very lucky person!!!! Awesome awesome awesome talent!!!!
Still an extremely good looking man and so talented.
Still my favorite version of Romeo and Juliet. I had such a crush on Leonard Whiting. I didn't know he could sing.
What a gorgeous looking man with a beautiful voice.
Как же прекрасна юнность! И куда всё уходит?!
ОН ЕЩЕ ВЕРНЕТСЯ В ЛУЧШЕМ ВИДЕ И БУДЕТ ВОСХИЩАТЬ!
Какой прекрасный голос!
I just love his voice. He was so handsome, no wonder he was Romeo.
I also fell in love with leonard. I was 10 when the movie came out and I always wanted to be an actor. I saw the movie about 20 times and I bought the record and sat on the floor and played the record over and over until I learned all of their lines. I used to recite the lines with their English accents and my parents had me act for their friends. I also created a scrap book of the movie and time I and juliet. And like most people I thought it was the best time I and juliet ever made. Franco did the movie as it should have been. Olivia Hussey was gorgeous and was the most gifted juliet ever. I joined acting theaters but never got the chance to play juliet. I even made my confirmation name juliet!
Leonard is also a poet! I'd love to have his poems books. Thanks for sharing
Love you Leonard. I had a huge huge huge crush on you when I was a teenager. The first time I saw you in this movie I almost dropped dead
LOL!! You're not the only one, my jaw dropped and was mesmerized, at the age of 10 at that!
Same here!
Beautiful voice, best Romeo portrayal in my lifetime.
Leonard will be 70 by the end of June 2020 . Love U both Olivia ❤️😘❤️😘
Какой же Ромео красавец /Леонард Уайтинг именно)
Совсем недавно узнала, что знаменитую песню из "Ромео и Джульетта" 1968 года исполнил сам Леонард! Самый лучший Ромео и самая лучшая у него Джульетта!
В клипе поёт Леонард Уайтинг, а в фильме другой певец
Но он тоже спел эту песню, и даже очень хорошо, она есть на ютюбе
@@olgasavchenko1303 Очень хорошо спел, но записал её только в 1979 году. Дзеффирелли решил, что голос Леонарда будет очень узнаваем и пел другой певец
@@olgasavchenko1303 И ещё, если вам интересно, зайдите на русскоязычный сайт Ольги Николаевой. Там о фильме и его участниках
I just had brunch with Leonard and his wife in New York yesterday and I hadn't known that he sang until he shared it in a very modest moment. His version of "You Don't Know Me" is clearly my favorite. What an incredibly talented and humble man Leonard Whiting is ...
How lucky you are to know this beautiful talented man !!! He and Olivia Hussey's incredible acting talent as teenagers and also their astonishing beauty and innocence fills my heart with joy still today { I am their age ! }
You are very lucky indeed that know him personally..he was and he is my first Love...God bless him and his wife!
That must be cool to know a celebrity. Although I was born in '67, I have really enjoy the '68 version of R& J the best. I have not seen the 2013 version with Hailed Seinfeld. Leonard had a cool voice. He mentioned in a 2016 interview, this song is his fave.
My late HS friend Roberta Gorski once worked as an associate producer in Hollywood. She died in 20009 at 40. If fate had been different, I might have met celebrities as well. I am sure both performers are touched the film has moved generations.
Sorry for the typos, my tablet does not have edit.
I am the same age as Olivia. When I went to see Romeo and Juliet I fell in love with them both. They were both so perfect to me. I love to see that they are still friends, they both are still very attractive and seem to be lovely people.
Wow. Beautiful voice, stunning performance as Romeo. I hope he has had a good life over the past 5 decades & can go to the grave knowing he brought happiness to a lot of young girls over generations. He will live on as the best Romeo of them all. And Shakespeare will be waiting for him on the other side to give him a pat on the back for a job well done.
Хороший голос хотелось бы услышать больше его песен в его исполнении
Леонард красиво поёт! Ромео он сыграл потрясающе. Жаль только что в кино он мало снимался. А может быть эти фильмы до нас не доходили. Неизвестно, а хотелось посмотреть его ещё раз вткино. Сейчас таких красивых фильмов не снимают. Одни только разборки бандитских. Противно смотреть.
Снялся в 10 фильмах а в основном отдаёт себя музыке и театру, любит Англию и поэтому не поехал в Голливуд. Интервью от 16 года.
Fantastic voice. I never knew that he could sing. Bravo.
DOES A 17 YEAR OLD GET ANYMORE BEAUTIFUL-- I THINK NOT
these two teenagers were incredibly beautiful, they're jaw-droppingly enthralling. Zefferelli admitted to not needing makeup for them. Perfect youthful beauty and amazing delivery of their dialogues. Casting 2 young teens really captured the innocence desperation fury & passion of young love. Im 51 now and since the age of 10 Ive found Romeo / Leonard to be incredibly beautifully sexy. Today though I feel guilty about his intense captivating gorgeousness -- given that he was only 17 / 18 yrs old in the movie. He'd be 68 now
Yes, but Leonard looks are just... takebreathing... His jawline, his eyebrows, his cheeckbones... He's one of the most handsome men i've ever seen
This song sang by him makes me cry every time I listen to it. Such a great work. He’s handsome and has such an angelic voice.
Ethereal voice, thank you Leonard, this song soothes my soul.
Omg he's Perfection why didn't he record more songs what a handsome young man!!
Он ещё и поёт красиво 💖
Beautiful voice.
ОБОЖАЮ!!! СПАСИБО ,ЧТО ЖИЛ В НАШЕ ВРЕМЯ ,И МЫ МОГЛИ СОЗЕРЦАТЬ С ЭКРАНА ЛУЧШЕЕ СОЗДАНИЕ И ТВОРЕНИЕ ЧЕЛОВЕЧЕСКОЕ!!!
Он живëт
@@veraafanasieva570 Это про прошлое ...
I was only 15 the first time I watched the movie Romeo and Juliet I must have seen it another 5 times after that and was totally in love with Leonard Whiting for years thereafter.
THANK YOU AND OLIVIA FOR YOUR GREAT LOVE MOVIE ”ROMEO AND JULIET” 🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹
Замечательный голос. Жаль, что жизнь неумолима и старость крадет и красоту и силы.
На краску для волос мужчинам жалко,на курево нет...
Leonard Whiting's Romeo certainly inspired a lot of us to read Shakespeare. Thank you, Leonard.
Praying that I can meet him and Olivia Hussey one day, talk with them, and give them the biggest hugs on the planet! 🙏🙏🙏❤️ After a long time, I am going back to the movie! I watched it all the time ever since I read the play in 8th grade, and after staying away from it for many years,I am ready to see him and Olivia again in the movie. I need these two star-crossed lovers back in my life! I will never leave them again! Leonard had such a beautiful voice; I wish he could sing more!
Wonderful to hear him sing......thank you
Wow, I didn't know he could sing> Beautiful. "Romeo, you sing so sweetly!"
I didn’t know that Leonard Whiting has an awesome voice! He was my favorite after Romeo and Juliette. I followed his career in films until he disappeared. I never found out why! ❤️❤️❤️
outstanding rendition of leonard whiting!
a wonderful voice!
Oh my Lord. That is beautiful.
A beautiful voice!
Not only was he handsome,he could sing too, I wish all cute guys could sing like that!
Remarkable voice! exceptional rendition of the song. Kudos Leonard! from robert young ,Philippines
What a charming voice !..Superb !!!
Truly one of the most talented and kind people in the World. There is simply nothing that this man cannot do ... with uncommon excellence...
Красавчик! Кумир наш! Все девочки были влюблены в Ромео!❤❤❤
О, ДА...!!!
Teen children ARE NOT IDOLS!!!
Читаю все кометы все ходили на Ромео одна я в свои 15 лет ходила на герцога какой красивый мужчина
What more could we ask? Handsome,sweet, talented and modest
BRAVO, BRAVO, BRAVO Leonard... miluji Vás, celý svůj život, od chvíle, kdy jsem shlédla Romeo a Julie, Vás miluji. A Váš zpěv je stejně něžně krásný jako jste Vy sám.
OMG, he can sing sooo good! Why he and Olivia are not worldwide famous again???
I didn't know Romeo was such a good singer!
Как Оливия могла бросить такого красавца ??? И вот в жизни произошло то ,что они играли в фильме , мать её вмешалась ,в её жизнь ,и хотела ей богатенького фраера , ... НУ и зачем !? Непонятно сложилась её жизнь ,снималась мало и в дурацких фильмах ,ни уму ни сердцу , а ведь у них была сильная любовь ! Жалко их обоих!
Трудно остаться чистыми душой и телом среди грязи...
Вы говорите мать. Оливия бросила его еще в конце съемок в Италии (67 год), а мать в Лондоне, не долековато ли для вмешательства. Уже к концу 67 года (ей 16 лет) у нее появляется новый бой-френд Алан (и по совместительству ее первый мужчина) с которым она находилась в отношениях более года. Вот не знаю, знал ли тогда об этом Леонард. Но съемки и картинки, которые мы видим после съемок ничто иное как фейк. А вы говорите любовь. Да не любила она его никогда и сама об этом постоянно говорила. Мы просто поддались гипнозу, поверили их экранным чувствам и думали, что в жизни у них происходит тоже самое. Реальность оказалась совсем другой...
@@user-mz2rs4mm7j Да, согласен, трудно. Но ведь можно хотя бы к этому стремиться. А они что наделали ? Один лишь ее поступок ( в далеком 67 году) поставил окончательный крест на всех их отношениях. Ну а дальше , как вы говорите, грязь. Разве при такой любви может быть такой итог, оказывается может. Просто не было никаких чувств и никакой любви. Как то так.....
The Best Romio in the world!!! Warm, sensitive, beautiful!!! Tank alot to HIM!!! 🌹🌹🌹👑❤️
Красота не просто так дается Богом.Это возможность тем, кто любуется телесной красотой ,самому стать лучше и чище.
видела всего одну роль но за то какую!!!!!- мне было 13 лет и до сих пор я считаю что это самый лучший Ромео!!
Он еще и поет!!!
Это действительно самый лучший и красивый Ромео из всех кого я видела
И мне тоже было лет 14,когда я увидела этот фильм,и ,я "пропала"!!
@@i.l.4240 поёт с 11 лет и в возрасте 12-14 лет был в Москве с гастролями лондонского театра
А кто в фильме поет?
Hey, girls....Can you imagine a 1968 Leonard singing this to you back then? *MELT*
What a beautiful voice! So tender!
被天使亲吻过的嗓子，Leonard真的是一个极具魅力，绅士，优雅，内敛，有天赋的艺术家。特别特别喜欢你，希望你平安健康快乐每一天！
That is such a beautiful heart-melting song, and gorgeous selection of photographs! Thank you so much for sharing☺️❤️
PERFECT , ALLWAYS !!!!!!!!!!!
TOO BEAUTIFUL VOICE !!!!!!!!!!
What A Man!! Romeo seems a perfect man! First time now I just know he had a beautiful voice, such an awsome singer and most handsome in the world!! Romeo & Juliette forever in people hearts!!!!! love.
Beautiful voice
Good job Romeo 😅
I was 10 years old when I watched Romeo and Juliet.There will be no better actors than the two young Leonard and Olivia.Then I fell in love, the movie shook me.And now, looking at it again at the age of 64, the same thing happens to me an exciting and shaking feeling of love, betrayal and pain.This 1968 film will go down in the history of great film masterpieces
Wow! Go Leonard!
I never knew he could sing. Beautiful voice! Why didn't he have albums when he was young? Definitely would have bought them.
