Over the years, Sinatras' voice became more rugged and defined. It's interesting to see his evolution.
1940s Sinatra had the best voice ever. Smooth like milk chocolate
The young twenty something Sinatra was really quite special. It is a shame more people don’t know about his early years
He was not call "The Voice" for nothing..
@@loublackvideoI’ve only discovered the 40s stuff now due to Apple Music having good remasters on there
"I'll get a smoke...(and go win an award)"
Está me dando uma vontade danada de assistir 'A Era do Radio' mas uma vez. Frank é (ainda) o maior e Woody Allen esbanja bom gosto!
Frank CK never get old nobody did ir better nobody we Will never see anything like this again Is wonderfull see tohim when hewas very young wonderfull voice
Young Frank was amazing
@@loublackvideo An exquisite performance from the best.
I’m a great admirer of early Sinatra and his voice in the decade of the 40s, he was still married to Nancy and raising his children but he abandoned her for a tramp and his voice lost its original crisp quality in the 50s and I can’t endorse his chosen lifestyle but I will always cherish his recordings of the late 30s and 40s!
That’s a wonderful reference
This is the first time that I have heard of this song, maybe because I was not born yet when the radios played this on the airwaves. Among all of Frank Sinatra's songs, this is now my favorite.
If You Are But A Dream
If you are but a dream
I hope I never waken
It's more than I could bear
To find that I'm forsaken
If you're a fantasy
Then I'm content to be
In love with lovely you
And pray my dream comes true
I long to kiss you but I would not dare
I'm so afraid that you may vanish in the air
So darling if our romance should break up
I hope I never wake up
If you are but a dream.
This was the best era of Sinatra. Beautiful.
Indeed, and most people have never had a chance listen to this era of Frank Sinatra
@@loublackvideo before he destroyed his voice with booze, cigs and all that partying
when i was a kid, most of the sinatra i heard from from his later years and i never understood what my mother liked about him
then i heard his early stuff and finally got it
Same here. I couldn't understand it either. Mister Rat Pack Las Vegas? Really? I had heard that he was a teenager heartthrob, and teenage girls swooned over him like teenage girls swooned over the Beatles, but then you hear/see these old recordings and you finally get it.
@@loublackvideo the whole brat pack shtick and post brat pack shtick, were all cover for the fact that he had no voice left.
but his fans ignored it
im seeing the same thing with mccartny fans
This is how A.I should be used and not abused like all the other things that's going on.
Agreed. My use in this context is very low key with its use of simple algorithms that have been trained to remap every shade of gray into color and to sharpen previously fuzzy images (NASA has been doing that for decades). That being said, I have been intrigued by the use of AI by Hollywood animators or those having the computer create abstract fantasy or deep fake stuff. I see all of that as a novelty though and much of it seems a bit repetitive.
@@loublackvideo It is fun to watch AI generated cover songs and deepfakes, but I don't think it's morally right to do so. It'll be interesting to see how the big music corporations are going to tackle copyrighted material generated by AI.
Oh, amen
Yes! Thanks! Good that I lived, he lived when his voice could be recorded with quality for the pleasure of all of us!
Que voz encantadora, cheia de amor e ternura, maravilhosa,, macia, Sinatra nos anos 40 eh simplesmente divino, eh como estar na frente de uma lareira quentinha no inverno❤
Velvet voice like Matt...
No one sings like this anyone
My favorite Frank number.
Such a smooth voice in his youth. Most of us had never heard his earlier recordings
El más grande!!
Oldies rule forever,
Wonderful
He had such a great voice when he was in his 20's. Very different from his more mature 1950's/1960's voice.
What a lovely piece of history, thank you so much for sharing this lovely number done by Sinatra at his early best.
Glad you enjoyed it. He had an amazing voice in his youth, very different from his later years
This is amazing! Thank you for uploading this!
Glad you enjoyed it! I was actually surprised by how well it turned out, particularly the audio remastering. Young Frank had an amazing voice.
Wow I🔥🔥Color 😮😮
Wow! What a treat.
Right? Such an amazing voice in his youth. Totally different from the later era Frank
Nadie, absolutamente nadie, siquiera se le acerca.
This is my favourite version of this song, better than the columbia release.
Nice. All I did was let the software try to improve the audio dynamics, and it did end up sounding better than the original movie audio.
If you are but a dream
I hope I never waken
It's more than I could bear
To find that I'm forsaken
If you're a fantasy
Then I'm content to be
In love with lovely you
And pray my dream comes true
I long to kiss you
But I would not dare
I'm so a-fraid that
You may vanish in the air
So darling
If our romance should break up
I hope I never wake up
If you are but a dream
I long to kiss you
But I would not dare
I'm so afraid that
You may vanish in the air
So darling
If our romance would break up
I hope I never wake up
If you are but a dream
Thank you so much for this.
You are so welcome! He had such a beautiful voice when he was young, a different style from his later years.
Do you have more videos like this of 1940’s Frank Sinatra? His voice was always amazing but it was just so sentimental here if that makes sense.
Sorry, I’m pretty sure this is the only one I have. I stumbled across this one by accident, and was so impressed by young Frank Sinatra’s voice that I had to share it (after I restored it). Most of us grew up listening to the older mature Vegas era Sinatra, and had no idea that there was this earlier era to his voice
@@loublackvideo You have done a wonderful service. This is why he was called The Voice. It's a pity that it's My Way, New York New York and Thats Life that are mostly on endless rotation. When there are so many recordings from the 1940s and 50s that are overlooked.
Thank you Nolla. Folks need to rediscover his earlier work, I understand now why he was a teenager heartthrob, the Harry Styles of his era
I’ve been listening to a ton of his early music but there aren’t many performances from that era that you watch.
He was in a couple of movies in the 40s, Live Lively and Anchor Aweigh for instance.
Insane!!!
He was quite the crooner, eh?
This is fantastic. I recently got TL's VEAI and am enjoying it. We should jump on a video chat some time and compare notes!
Definitely! Anytime Jason, send me a FB messenger message or e-mail and we'll set up a video chat
