    Johnny Mathis is known for his beautiful romantic ballads. He has a very unique velvet voice. His music has spanned over 6 decades. He had so many great hits such as "Wonderful! Wonderful!", "It's Not for Me to Say", "The Twelfth Of Never", "Gina", "What Will Mary Say", "Misty,", etc. He also did a couple of duets with Deniece Williams, "Too Much, Too Little, Too Late" and "You're All I Need to Get By".

  • @susiesunshine4982
    @susiesunshine4982 Před rokem +149

    Would love to hear crooner Tony Bennett, "I Left My Heart in San Francisco". He has an amazing voice. But the coolest thing about him is that later in his career he did duets with everybody from Amy Winehouse to k. d. lang to Lady Gaga. He's 96 now and JUST retired because of Alzheimer's. Such a talent.

    • @barblessable
      @barblessable Před rokem +2

  • @helgar791
    @helgar791 Před rokem +46

    One of the great singers of his age. With Johnny his style is instantly recognizable. Johnny is still alive at the ripe young age of 87. This is a great cut, but if you want to see the original little boy lost (the image Sam Smith has today) singing live, watch him do the incredible "It's Not For Me To Say" in the old black and white version from around 1957. Also any version, especially the early ones, of him doing the classic "Misty", "Wonderful Wonderful", and the Christmas classic, "Winter Wonderland".

  • @gkiferonhs
    @gkiferonhs Před rokem +37

    Tony Bennett is one of the original crooners (a peer of Sinatra and the Rat Pack) who is still performing with Lady Gaga. He has Alzheimers and like of a lot of Alzheimer sufferers he hangs onto his music. His signature song was "I Left My Heart In San Francisco". It'd be cool to honor him before he dies.

  • @r.t.aegean3236

    Absolute genius. Johnny Mathis has a totally recognizable voice that makes you just melt. He is ageless. There is nothing not to like about him and his stylizations. One of the best singers to slow dance to with someone you love.

  • @marilynd.5443
    @marilynd.5443 Před měsícem +3

    Johnny Mathis is a genius of breath control--you'll never hear him take a breath that wasn't planned with great forethought. He has mastered the process of "circular breathing", and can sing indefinitely without stopping to breathe, because of it. Ask any seasoned horn player about the difficulty--same application. And Mathis is as smooth as silk, no matter the song. Incredible singer, incredible man. I've cried my way home, listening to him after work--and loved every moment of it.

    Two of the crooners that you haven't done yet (and definitely need to) also happen to be, along with Mr. Mathis, still entertaining audiences. You'll love Tony Bennett (96!) doing "I Left My Heart In San Francisco" and Englebert Humperdinck (86) doing "Release Me".

    It's been a terrific 2-day stretch on this channel for crooners. Yesterday, you finally got back to The King Of The Romantic Ballads during the 1970's Barry Manilow. Today, you finally got back to The King Of The Romantic Ballads during the 1950's Johnny Mathis. While I don't have another crooner to suggest, I do have a piano-playing singer-songwriter to suggest whose songs have yet to be introduced on your channel. He is Neil Sedaka who was very successful and popular during the late 50's and early 60's. His great songs from that era include "Breaking Up Is Hard To Do", "Calendar Girl", "Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen", "Oh Carol", and "Next Door To An Angel". Neil Sedaka also made a comeback in the mid-1970's with songs such as "Laughter In The Rain" and "Bad Blood". I hope you start reacting to some Neil Sedaka songs.

    My hs buddy was a masterful piano player, and played one year for John Williams' infamous Christmas Gentlemen's parties (aka of Savannah "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil fame). He didn't want to go alone and asked me to go to "turn music pages". Highly skeptical, (in my late teens or early 20s) my curiosity got the best of me, so I went. So glad I did, as I met the incomparable Johnny Mathis, who sang a few songs. What a smooth voice.

    I have such wonderful associations with Johnny Mathis and his music with my late husband. The first song we danced to was Chances Are played by the band at the Dorchester in London. Years later we were living in Vegas and Mathis was on my bucket list of performers I wanted to see live. My husband got tickets for the first show when Mathis came town. What a performance! Sat on a bar stool and sang for over 2 hours. Thank you so much for this reaction. So many good memories of being young and head over heels in love!❤

    Straight butter! The minimal use of instruments (by today's standards)focuses on the voice. Sometimes alot of instruments can cover a voice that's not on point. This was a time when you really had to be able to sing!

    His voice is enough to make you re-evaluate your choice of favorite crooners. Johnnie's voice is incomparable, simply the best.

    He has a beautiful voice. We saw him in concert in 1990ish. A great concert but he never talked to the audience in between songs...apparently he's extremely shy. Tony Bennett on the other hand talked and talked between songs. Loved both.

      Before thirty a singer who talk to the audience does it because he has something to say. After forty a singer who talk to his audience does it because he is out of breath and needs a pause. ( Charles Aznavour Olympia 1968).

    Oh YES. His mellow voice is part of my childhood. My dad, who had a wonderful voice himself, thought Johnny Mathis was one of the very best vocalists ever.

    When I first heard his records at the age of 8 or 9 I was absolutely HOOKED! One of my favorite songs of his is "Tenderly" If you want to hear his full crooning range check out that one. His voice rises and falls effortlessly as if being carried by the wind. Simply the romantic best! 😌💞🎤🎶💖

    Songs like this one are the reason why Johnny Mathis became known as a ballad singer and the era's reigning king of make-out music. Mathis shows all the symptoms of being in love in the swooning romantic tune, written by Robert Allen and Al Stillman. He sings:
    Chances are 'cause I wear a silly grin
    The moment you come into view
    Chances are you think that I'm in love with you. This was Mathis' first #1 hit single.
    Mathis was just two years into his recording career at the time, but Columbia Records was pressuring him for a new release, so his producer Mitch Miller came up with the idea for a hits package. "That was Mitch Miller's idea," Mathis explained in a 2018 Songfacts interview. "That was the first time I had a chance to go out of the country and go to Great Britain. They wanted me to go in the studio and make some more recordings. I had had some success with 'It's Not for Me to Say,' and I wasn't able to record anything new, so he threw the first four recordings that I did - both sides on them - and called them Johnny's Greatest Hits. That was a little flamboyant, because it was not the greatest hits, yet. But that was a great beginning for a lot of people. Even Mozart has a Greatest Hits now. Good idea from Mitch Miller."

    My parents, may their memory be a blessing, were crazy for Johnny in 1957. My dad decided to tape (he had a reel-to-reel tape recorder) his new Chances Are album but my mom went into labor. Although in serious pain she refused to leave for hospital until after the recording so she could hear it all. So I've been crazy for Johnny in utero cuz I was the baby ready to hatch.💜

    PLEASE do Tony Bennett soon. He's a legendary crooner who's ailing with dementia and you need to listen to his iconic "I Left My Heart in San Francisco," which came out 60 years ago, before he passes away.

    When I was little, I could not fall asleep when my older sister was not home (she was older and out on dates or with friends). My mom would lay with me and play Johnny Mathis to help meet sleep. His songs, and voice, comforts me in ways I can't describe. He has a special place in my heart always and forever.
