Sammy was notable in the art of entertainment. His voice and artistic versatility make him one of the greatest of all time. Sammy is in a select gallery of world art.

Feb 2020 and still,, to this day here's not yet been a male voice as magnificent and as pleasent to listen to as was/is Sir Sammy Davis Jr. Thank You Sammy for giving your life to your fans. You will always be remembered.
The late Sammy Davis Jr. is one of the greatest singer of all time. He enunciates the lyrics of the songs very clearly that you can understand and appreciate every word. He's one of my favorite, he's classic and legend!
Die wunderschoene Melodie hat der grosse Meister UDO JUERGENS komponiert. Auf der Tournee der Groessewahn 1994/1995, hat UDO JUERGENS dieses Lied erstmals in deutscher Sprache vor seinem Publikum gesungen. Danke UDO JUERGENS fuer die schoene Musik, die du der Nachwelt hinterlassen hast. Ruhe in Frieden in einer Welt voll von Musikklaengen.
In der TAg. Dass Jürgens der Komponist war, wusste ich allerdings auch nicht, bevor ich eine Kurzgeschichten las "Spiel des Lebens". Ich weiß auch nicht, wo die Schwierigkeit liegt, dieses Basisinformationen öffentlich. zu hinterlegen. Die Melodie kannte ich allerdings schon vorher: Alexandra sang sie auf Deutsch unter "Illusionen".
In my heyday Young men wrote to me Everybody seemed to have time to devote to me Everyone I saw all swore they knew me Once upon a song Main attraction, couldn't buy a seat The celebrity, celebrities were dying to meet I've had every accolade bestowed on me And so you see If I never sing another song It wouldn't bother me I had my share of fame You know my name If I never sing another song Or take another bow I would get by, but I'm not sure how Always posing, but you love it all Though you have to learn to act like you're above it all Everything I did the world applauded Once upon a star Framed citations, hung on every wall Got a scrapbook full of quotes, I can recall them all There were times I felt the world belonged to me And so you see If I never sing another song It wouldn't bother me I had my share of fame You know my name If I never sing another song Or take another bow I would get by, but I'm not sure how But I'm not sure how But I'm not sure how
i watched a doc about Sammy Davis Jr. and his family and friends said this song was both his favorite and his nightmare, that he would end up a washed up has been singer, broke, forgotten and past his time.
How did I not know how beautiful his voice is! And I’m a local Vegas native! 🫣shame. Im a 90s baby but I have an old soul. I love music. I just know “The Rat Pack” and the streets we have named after them all. But damn. Im tripping. Forgive me 🤲🏽😞
This has always been a favorite of mine, I play it often...I LOVE Matt Monro but, Sammy really does such a brilliant vocal its beyond brilliant really! xxx
I Met Him In Philadelphia , Still have his autograph , He was A very nice person and Marvelous Entertainer , Saw him at The LATIN CASINO in Cherry Hill , NJ
Sammy Davis Jr. gets inside this great song in a way only Sammy could do, peak form vocally as great as singing from the soul with an original distinctive voice gets, tour de force to be sure & one to savor and enjoy over and over again!
I was raised in Harlem, his mother operated this bar. On one of his visits he sang this song, of course I was mesmerized He touched my very soul, I could not imagine him not singing another song. Did I love him, you betcha. I am 81 y/o now see you soon Sam💌
This is such a sad song knowing how Sammy’s last days were losing his life to throat cancer, what kind of cruel fate that the same thing that brought him fame and fortune would be what he loses his life to. Sammy you’re truly missed the one and only there will never be another like
This man was probably the greatest all round talent we will ever see
He was the best loved him ❤
Have a beautiful voice super!👍
I think so! Russia knows his name!
I have to agree@@user-uf9nv6xc1x
Never can hear Sam sing this without tears God bless him 🙏
No wonder why my late father likes Sammy Davis, Jr. So much.
Sung with sadness in his voice, Sammy's rendition is beautiful!
Sammy was notable in the art of entertainment. His voice and artistic versatility make him one of the greatest of all time. Sammy is in a select gallery of world art.
The legendary Udo Jürgens composed the music in 1967, the great Alexandra wrote the original text, called "Illusionen".
What a singular talent. His voice was iconic and he is hands down one of the most versatile and gifted performers ever. Ever.
I miss you sir. You're the best. Idk why you make me cry. Hope you're enjoying heaven
HE GIVES ME CHILLS !!!!
His voice brings me to tears its so beautiful
Udo Jürgens sei Dank für dieses wunder volle Lied Danke auch Sammy Super gemacht
O my goodness this was man was the best of them all brings tears when i hear this your missed sam ❤
I love love love it! And as an Austrian I am proud to know it was written by the great Austrian singer Udo Jürgens...
No body sang it like him ...May his soul rest in perfect peace..
thats what you call good music
One of the greatest singers you will ever hear in your life ❤❤
Sammy Davis put his trademank voice on this song, and it stands out in the crowd!
Some people should never die. Sammy was one of them and so was Dean Martin.

What a gorgeous song! I never heard this song until today. Brought tears to my eyes! Sammy we miss YOU! The good always die young.
That is so true, also true for Freddie Mercury.
Have you ever heard Matt nonro sing this, or born free.
@@TheTmny876able , I think Sammy actually says ‘this is Matt’s song’, right at the start.
Yes mat was fantastic but this song was made for sam
@@TheTmny876ablethe late great Matt Monro was and still is in a class of his own, as are the others great crooners of that bygone era
The late Sammy Davis Jr. is one of the greatest singer of all time. He enunciates the lyrics of the songs very clearly that you can understand and appreciate every word. He's one of my favorite, he's classic and legend!
We miss artists like him and orchestral backing....real music....we miss.....👍😘😪

Super Song von Udo Jürgens!
What a heavenly voice.
Never before or since him has there been as pure an entertainer as Sammy. I love him, love him. Huge lump in my throat.
One word.... STUNNING! I miss you Sammy!
Don´t forget that the composer of this great song is Austrian singer/songwriter UDO JÜRGENS (Juergens) - he also composed "Illusionen" for Alexandra!
Magnífico Sammy Davis Jr. No tuvo el reconocimiento que se merecía..yo lo amo!!!
wow what a performance, lyrics and Sammy's voice topped it all...
miss u Sammy
R.I.P dear
This guy is one of the all time greats, and dig that dated 8track sound!

Lovely rendition of a great classic from a powerhouse talent!
What a voice RIP Sammy. You are the greatest.
Wunderschön
RIP Sammy
RIP Udo
Love sammy davis so much. This dude was the best. Great heart and soul God gave us in this man.
Sin lugar a dudas la mejor version de esta cancion. Cancion tan dificil que ni el mismo Sinatra se atrevio a interpretarla...inolvidable Sammy
im still young but i love his voice so much
Small man....Great Voice...Magic Voice....what a volume.....Wonderful song..❤️❤️❤️
In my heyday
Young men wrote to me
Everybody seemed to have time to devote to me
Everyone I saw all swore they knew me
Once upon a song
Main attraction, couldn't buy a seat
The celebrity, celebrities were dying to meet
I've had every accolade bestowed on me
And so you see
If I never sing another song
It wouldn't bother me
I had my share of fame
You know my name
If I never sing another song
Or take another bow
I would get by, but I'm not sure how
Always posing, but you love it all
Though you have to learn to act like you're above it all
Everything I did the world applauded
Once upon a star
Framed citations, hung on every wall
Got a scrapbook full of quotes, I can recall them all
There were times I felt the world belonged to me
And so you see
If I never sing another song
It wouldn't bother me
I had my share of fame
You know my name
If I never sing another song
Or take another bow
I would get by, but I'm not sure how
But I'm not sure how
But I'm not sure how
Sammy killed this song with amazing crescendos.
i watched a doc about Sammy Davis Jr. and his family and friends said this song was both his favorite and his nightmare, that he would end up a washed up has been singer, broke, forgotten and past his time.

Matt Monro sang this song brilliantly. Different singers but they are so good,each great in their own way.
What a super performer !
This is such a sad song knowing how Sammy’s last days were losing his life to throat cancer, what kind of cruel fate that the same thing that brought him fame and fortune would be what he loses his life to. Sammy you’re truly missed the one and only there will never be another like
