From the CBS television special, Don't Call Me Mama Anymore! Hope you really enjoy it! Maybe in the future I'll have to delete it because of terms of copyright...
Wow. It saddens me that she didn't get to live her life. She effortlessly sang. Effortlessly! She looked very stunning in this video. She passed before I was born.
Bravo Cass Elliot love it she was quite a singer as well as an actress -- it is too bad she didn't do Broadway -- show tunes would have been right up her alley!
She auditioned for the Miss Marmelstein role in the Broadway musical I Can Get it For You Wholesale. She lost out to Barbra Streisand which began Streisand’s unparalleled career.
I love this song for many reasons. It has very interesting use of words and it's beautifully sung by Cass, but what really does it is the fact that it's so personalised to Cass' situation. It's a shame she didn't get to live to see a time when the "mama" was dropped by society when referring to her.😊
except "mama" was never "dropped by society" because to this day peeps still refer to her as Mama Cass ! It's that ingrained. But I always refer to her as Cass Elliot! Where's the Cass Elliot Bway musical?
Cass Elliot was taken before she reached her potential as an artist. All the great songs she never got to sing. All the amazing performances she never gave. Such a loss.
Cass Elliot was such a trail blazer and inspiration for accepting ones individual self worth. She was like Here I am and I might not be what's considered a regular sort of woman, person or whatever, but I am a person with feelings and talent and I won't let anyone hold me back or make me feel less than. That is why people Loved Cass Elliot and always will. She was a extraordinary person and left her mark on the world, brief as it was. Love her and her beautiful spirit Forever!!
Without hesitation, if this fine woman ever asked me to marry her, YES would not be able to come out if my mouth fast enough. What an honor that would have been. Love you dear Cass.
I wish I had a time machine to yes go back and marry her but also to warn her not to crash diet bc personally I think that is what led 2 her very sad early demise.
Just finished reading a biography of her, which presented her warts and all, and I have to say....after reading the book....I love Cass more. She will always be one of the guests to my fantasy dinner party.
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I have looked for a video of her singing this song for YEARS. probably since youtube started, tbh. I'm so glad someone finally posted this, you're the cat's meow!
The fact that Cass wasn’t a famous & iconic Broadway belter, lives rent free in my head every day. I could imagine most MT composers writing roles FOR HER, to accentuate her extreme talent and wit- it’s such a shame she was never afforded those opportunities… What musicals/ plays (or roles) would any of y’all like to have seen Cass in?!
How wonderful to find this! I appreciate your uploading this, big-time. Oh, her style and talent come through so much more than a few others I've lately watched.
No, Ma'am, I won't call you Mama. In fact, I made that mistake the other day when I posted something on FB. I just went back and edited it. Sorry, Julie Andrews, I mean Cass.
Had no idea this was going to be a showtune!! Can’t wait to listen to more of her solo stuff. Casa Elliot is a dope STAR name so I get why she wanted to go by it!
Omg I need the rest!!! I’ve been searching for this for YEARS!!!!!! I own the dvd of the mama cass television program but I’ve never been able to find this special!!!
@@ThitiCE I'm doing a show about her and would love to see anything you've got- specifically looking for Torch Song Medley and Listen to the World and....anything! IG CarlyOzard
@@ThitiCE Hi Thiago! I've been looking for the full special everywhere, I would absolutely loooove to see it. My email is lkate7015@gmail.com or happy to chat over social media too :)
Why do I only hear this out of the right channel audio? I am playing other videos, but this is the only one that's doing this. It sucks cuz I'd really like to hear it properly.
I have been trying to get my hands on a copy of Don't Call me Mama for YEARS. At one point, here in the US, the DVD was a gift you could get by pledging to a PBS station somewhere, but once that pledge drive was over, you could no longer get it. Does ANYONE have the whole special???
Cass is a jewel in this world. I absolutely adore her

that was her initial goal(s) to be a Bway musical star!

@@BarkleyConners one problem with that fantastic idea, there's no one who could do it justice. Whoever tried to take the role would be crucified.
The holy grail of Cass's performances!
Cass still makes me feel good after all these years. A beautiful entertainer. Sadly missed …

I think she's one of the best singers of all time

Thank you SO MUCH for this. I love Cass, even tho I was born way past her time and this song is just perfect. She was a true talent.
Yes, I agree!
I remember seeing this special and then being heartbroken not much later.
Forever CASS!!

Wonderful! One of a kind singer and entertainer.
Let’s not call her mama anymore....her name is Cass Elliot.
You're so right! 💓
Actually her real name is Ellen Naomi.
@@EmilyGloeggler7984 i think she legaly changed her name to Cass Elliot
I call her Ellen. So I pray for her
Well we only know her by her stage name. She was an amazing talented singer and funny actress. Also a warm very interesting and intelligent woman.
I still have this record❤my mom listened to the Mama's and Papa's.❤
And to this day, she has been only "Cass" to me💓.
This woman’s wit charm beauty… humor… fun.. class.. and dance… the spark in her eyes… magical Soul.. 💖💜🌼💚💙🐣🕉
I was a kid when she passed but grew up with her lovely voice and records, She was a Treasure❤❤❤❤❤❤
Just finished reading a biography of her, which presented her warts and all, and I have to say....after reading the book....I love Cass more. She will always be one of the guests to my fantasy dinner party.
Wow!...best I have ever heard her...fantastic talent gone way too soon. Love Cass!
What a talent.
I adore her. Miss her soooo much. ❤️🙁🙂🥰
PERFECTA SEÑORA CASS ELLIOT 😍😍
ESTOY ENAMORADO DE USTED!!!!!
She is so regal
That voice! Impeccable and irreplaceable in my heart ! Best of that band…..Miss Cassandra I miss you iconic forever classy smart charismatic
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I have looked for a video of her singing this song for YEARS. probably since youtube started, tbh. I'm so glad someone finally posted this, you're the cat's meow!
Thank you! I'm happy you're happy 😁
The anthem for her transition from the "Mama" title.
Fancy Singer (Cass) you are greatly missed ♡
Lord God, I loved her.
Bravo you said it better thanks
Dear Cass must confess I like this song.
Magnífica, elegante e lindíssima.
Yesssss! She was a stand up lady even then . We miss you Princess Cassandra, ! RIP beautiful inside and out Lady !😊🌹🌹❤️🕊️🕊️🇬🇧💔💔💔
Love her.
Amazing
love you Cass..
Despite the fact that she was not slim, I consider her very attractive. She always dressed tastefully and was immaculately groomed.

she's always Mama Cass in my heart.
But she didn’t want that.
Gone too damn soon.

Wonderful; I watched this special as a 12 year old!

QUE GRAN CANTANTE!!!...... GRANDE CASS!!!!!...... HERMOSA!!!
Hermosa 💗💗
No la llames mamá!
@@grecomic MAMA CASS
Ella era el espíritu de su ex grupo. Los demás sin ella no hubieran llegado a nada. Y por supuesto, ya no volveré a llamarla de otra forma que Cass...
02:28 that growl😍
Nice job, Ellen Naomi!
Was this from her final 1973 special?
Yes, it was!
Perfection!
Terrific performance. That song is better than almost any song on her solo albums.
thank u for sharing this
My pleasure!
It’s such a treasure hmmm?❤

Cass is a great name without Mama.
How did you manage to get this??? Amazing find!!!
A friend of mine sent it to me
@@ThitiCE Your friend must have quite the collection, I'd think, considering they have this! Wow...
@@ThitiCE Hi - do you have the rest of the TV special?? I'd love to have it if you do!
I have been trying to get my hands on a copy of Don't Call me Mama for YEARS. At one point, here in the US, the DVD was a gift you could get by pledging to a PBS station somewhere, but once that pledge drive was over, you could no longer get it. Does ANYONE have the whole special???
Mama end my suffering
Anyone knows where can I find the complete TV special?
Just call her Naomi Cohen❤️
👸❤️
Why didn't she want to be called "Mama"?
Can hardly hear it.
Hey Mama Cass
ti Amo
