How beautiful it is to hear Ethel using her lighter voice. Once more, the amazing Merman amazes me with her brilliance.

I remember her singing this and being blown away live that was.

I love Ethel Merman, her passion and sincerity is so effective on everything she sings and I don't think she ever lost her pipes! Have this one by Nancy Wilson on her last recording and it is beautiful also.

She really could pull it in and melt your heart... beautiful, nuanced number..

I have a greater appreciation for her and wish I could have seen her in person. I know my father loved seeing her in shows.

What a beautiful performance.

Simply perfect! Bless this Broadway diva!

Never finished my comment..Merman shows again how great she was..her rendition..her life...an than the belt at the end..#1 Brass Diva reigns still!

God, she is amazing ! ❤️💥

This is fabulous!!! Love "The Merm".

Another gem from your good self thank you! I love the song and Ethel too.

Actually gave me the shivers. What an astonishing, unique talent she was.

Grazie per questa stupefacente testimonianza.Bella ed emozionante interpretazione.

It’s great to hear this remarkable lady do plaintive songs with feeling instead of her usual bounce, which of course I also enjoy. Thanks for sharing this wonderful video. 👌

Marvelous performance. Thanks for posting!

Wonderful

Now This... is a singer. An Entertainer's Entertainer.

She sang on gut instinct rather than technique, but Ethel Merman's voice hardly deteriorated over the years. All those performances on Broadway without a microphone and still capable of this towards the end - maybe not the prettiest sound , but a kind of vocal miracle / wonder really.

Tenortalker She was obviously was singing correctly or her voice would not have held up the way it did. She had great technique.

Oh my God, what is worse, lyrics or Music? Ethel should have listened to her agent and bailed out.

Changing the lyric from "beautiful girls" to "good looking men" in an attempt to make the song gender compliant destroys the ecstatic experience that the song is intended to deliver. They could have asked Ethel to sing, "BEAUTIFUL" men, and the emotion would have been sustained. Men can be beautiful! My Dad was!

O, pa alaw arswydus o ofid... Cân mor ddiflas a heddychlon. Darn mor brydferth o fywyd. Y fath hiraeth coll am yr amseroedd bythgofiadwy hyn o'r gorffennol. Mor brydferth yw hi, a pha fraint yw bod yn fyw bryd hynny. Am deimlad breuddwydiol !!! Am deimlad breuddwydiol a ffuglennol !!! Am freuddwyd hyfryd... O am freuddwyd hyfryd! O pa harddwch sydd yn y fath amseroedd !!! O pa mor bert! Mor hardd a chain! Mor ryfeddol a choeth... eiddigeddaf wrthych! Yr wyf yn eiddigeddus treigl amser! Rwy'n eiddigeddus o bopeth sydd wedi pasio'r hyn na allwn fod yn bresennol ynddo!!!!!!! Am edifeirwch! O am edifeirwch edifeiriol !!!!!!!! Am drasiedi edifeiriol...

She looks great but not really an Ethel song.
