    It’s not 1960 anymore. This was exactly the selfcentered, tone deaf way to play „old Hollywood“ that cost them a lot of viewers. He even pretends to „sing black“ in those last seconds there.

    ​@@JJ-ze6vb FYI, he was doing a Louie Armstrong impression. Before that, in the "Ol' Man River" segment, he pronounced "along" with a very soft "l", the way a Southern black person would, but none of the well-known black singers pronounced it that way when doing that song - strange. Do you resent Billy's doing Mohammad Ali impressions, for which he became famous and which Ali and his wife liked a lot? Nobody in their right mind can accuse Billy of racial insensitivity. His father was a jazz impresario in the 40's and 50's, and famous black musicians were always visiting his house while Billy was a kid. Billie Holiday would occasionally take him to the movies. He's been best friends with Karim Abdul Jabar since high school, he could call Ali a very good friend, and I'm sure very few blacks would resent him for occasional impressions of black celebrities. Should we reproach Eddie Murphy for doing some savage send-ups of James Brown or Stevie Wonder?

    I've watched this video many many times. It's some of the best live television I've ever seen. I'm struck by several things. The lyrics are brilliant, clever, funny and timely. Billy Crystal is at his absolute BEST. Not only did he have to SING and remember all those song lyrics, he looks ABSOLUTELY relaxed. That's amazing. A global audience of one billion people and pretty much every Hollywood celebrity and power player in the room and he just cruises through the whole things like it's nothing. Very few performers could pull this off. Kudos to Billy!

    I agree with everything except the audience of 1 billion. I lived overseas for 15 years and can assure you, no one else in the world watches the Oscars. No one. It's a purely American thing. No one else gives a sh*t about the Academy Awards. It's like the World Series of baseball. No one in the world is concerned with it. Every year I hear them talk about the audience of billions overseas. It's all horse manure. No one outside of American has even the slightest concern about the Oscars, or watches them, or talks about them. It's all PR BS. Sorry, Hollywood, you're just a bunch of pretentious a-holes.

If you can win for an idiotic summer film with no real point (except a huge budget, explosions, nudity, and billion dollar box office). This was the beginning of the downhill slide that the Oscars were doing. It's basically trash now. Trash winners are all that win.

    At least it was necessary for him to do so to Julie Andrews. But she wasn't the first to sing those soaring and timeless songs. The first Maria in the Sound of Music on Broadway was Mary Martin. 6 years later of course was when Ms. Andrews herself had that pleasure of being Maria. Just after she won her Oscar for Mary Poppins.

    In addition to all the other well-deserved praise, Billy’s singing range and timbre are terrific! “Old Man River” and “Maria” and “Goldfinger” are multi-octave testers that demand a strong voice. “My Favorite Things” and “Come Fly With Me” have their moments too. Way to go Billy!

    Are you spamming with that statement? Bob Hope, Johnny Carson were miles better. Billy Crystal was the very best followed by either Steve Martin or Whoopi Goldberg. But Jackman lol. Pisstaker.

    tripjet999 I stated that Crystal was - in my opinion - the best in the last twenty years, not the best in Oscar history. I would rank Carson way above Crystal in all time top 10.
