    My grandpa used to sing this song to my grandma all of the time. Just two nights ago my grandpa passed, 8 years after my grandma. I shed some happy tears listening, just knowing my grandpa can finally sing this to her again. I love and miss you. With all of my heart.

      My dad used to sing this to mom. Dad passed a couple of years ago, mom passed in June. We are planning the joint memorial service for both and want this to be played if the Church will allow it. Happy memories of an undying love and respect for each other. They were two of the most precious people I will ever know.

    Johnny singing 'Misty' with this arrangement behind him is, in my mind, the finest example of what music is all about and what it is meant to be, to touch our spirit and awaken thoughts of love which we, way too often, tuck away in our hearts away from the hustle and bustle of our daily lives. We tear up and in many cases cry uncontrollably when we hear Johnny sing it and if we listen to it a thousand times, the feelings we get will never ebb.
    "Look at me, I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree." After that opening line a listener hearing it for the first time gets 'locked in' and can't wait for more!

    • @dean3434
      @dean3434 Před 6 měsíci +2

      Yes indeed with all of the arrangement behind him he was fun to listen to. However he could have easily jazz-ed it up a bit more to further engage a broader interest. I saw Johnny Mathis live in Seattle many years ago and he did some of his hits and he did put some serious R&B into those songs and it was fabulous.

    • @JohnBernardon-py7wf
      @JohnBernardon-py7wf Před 5 měsíci +4

      I just read about how he created that famous fade in effect where his
      voice seems to come right out of the orchestra. It was as if the orchestra became is voice. Amazing. He did it by walking closer and closer to the microphone as he saying that note.

    • @dean3434
      @dean3434 Před 5 měsíci +2

      Those strings sure did the job back in that day. However, his phrasing and such could have touched more with the more powerful male sound that he always had and he could do it. But he was 'different' and successful with this voice and sound so producers with the money said keep it going because he does the full spectrum of sound and he could compete with the string section.

    • @RobertDeMartin
      @RobertDeMartin Před 5 měsíci +2

      Yes, when everyone heard that for the first time the reaction was always, "Did you hear that! Was that his voice?" It's funny, but when I turned on the video to see your comment I couldn't resist singing the song with Johnny before I did. It's one of the few songs I know EVERY SINGLE WORD and when I come to the part you were talking about I have a little difficulty 🙂to say the least! There are so many songs and artists we have become fond of over the years but this particular song sung by Johnny Mathis with fabulous orchestration behind him is, to me, the musical moment in my life I am most endeared with. I immediately think of a woman I was infatuated with at the time this song came out and you can guess the impression this song had on me. @@JohnBernardon-py7wf

    Look at me
    I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree
    And I feel like I'm clinging to a cloud
    I can't understand
    I get misty just holding your hand
    [Verse 2]
    Walk my way
    And a thousand violins begin to play
    Or it might be the sound of your hello
    That music I hear
    I get misty the moment you're near
    [Verse 3]
    You can say that you're leading me on
    But it's just what I want you to do
    Don't you notice how hopelessly I'm lost?
    That's why I'm following you
    [Verse 4]
    On my own
    Would I wander through this wonderland alone
    Never knowing my right foot from my left
    My hat from my glove
    I'm too misty and too much in love
