As for the rest, audiences thought Judy was lovely, and MGM make-up artists learned to work with her features as they were.

I saw Judy’s early Oz makeup before director Victor Fleming made changes to then Judy’s makeup to what we would all come to know it as in the final cut, and she definitely had the looks department there also. Too much so that they had to dumb it down to make her look “younger & poorer” to suite Dorothy’s back story accordingly. Judy was a young, very talented and had all the trademarks of a super star that there were no doubt ppl in that field that were threatened by her rather quick success. Hence calling her ‘not pretty enough’ and so forth to subtlety stab her in her back which I’d imagine is the norm socialite(s) behaviour(s) & high society Hollywood at that era. Especially in the entertainment biz afaik.

Baum had many set-backs in his life in the 19th century world he was born into. He was actually scared by a scarecrow he happened upon while playing as a boy near the home in the middle of NY State. It obviously stuck with him. He wrote & produced plays in play houses his father financed, which eventually went bust. He married Maud Gauge against her mother's wishes in the 1880's, then moved to Aberdeen, Dakota territory. His stories reflected life around him. Droughts & all. Many farmers there went bust during the industrial age's beginning by the time he got there though. He opened a store selling luxury goods anyway. They were in hock for everything they owned. The store was forced to close in the 1890's. He then bought & renamed a local newspaper that he illustrated. He wrote about a tornado that picked up a house & dropped it 2 miles away. So here you can see Dorothy's house winding up in Oz. Dorothy was based on the women of the high plains he'd known & see struggling to survive in the Dakota territory. Many people left the Aberdeen area from mortgage losses & an Indian uprising that never happened. His newspaper then slowly failed. His health began to fail from all the travel & working at so many things to, " make it". He then was basically forced to turn to writing. His many stories of Oz tried to show that dreams can come true. But, in life, they surely didn't.

I'd like to hear the rest of this broadcast; I wonder who else was in it?

It's really noticeable how much she'd worked on and developed her voice by the time of this performance. A grown woman compared to the little girl that sang it on the Oz set only a few years before.

To be sure! In 1950 she played Dorothy again on the Lux Radio Theater's adaptation of _The Wizard of Oz._ It's really interesting to listen to; when she speaks, she sounds just like she did in the movie, but when she sings, her voice is fuller and richer. 🙂

No one has ever topped her version of this song. 🎼🎶🎶🎶🎶

She truly owns this song.... others sing it.... but Judy owns it!

To think this song was almost taken out of the wizard of oz!!! This song became her anthem for the next 30 years of her life. A song that defined her life exactly. Nobody should even touch this song. This is hers! Only Judy/Frances (her birthday name) can sing this song. She’s over the rainbow now watching over Liza,Lorna& her baby Joey♥️

She would not say that. She would not begrudge anyone the chance to sing that song; her own daughter Liza sang it.

It's stupid to say nobody else should touch it because this is your favorite version.It's art and the entire point of art is to share it with other people. I hope after two years you learned how to grow up and stop acting like a child

She’s so pretty 😍

This song would bring a tear to my father's eye. He was raised that men don't cry, so he would always pull back if he started crying, but this was one of the times he would start to cry and then try to pull back. Any time I watched Wizard of Oz he would do this. He passed a little over a year ago. I miss that.

Only Judy can sing this. She gives me chills.

She abused herself as well, sad to say. But she was always appreciative of her audiences and loved to perform for them.

Nobody has ever duplicated Judy Garland's Heart and Soul!

Effortless contralto very velvety, and love the tension and the vibrato. What a wonderful singer she was with a style and sound that made her instantly recognizable and boy could she hold a note.

There's never been another singer that can break your heart like Judy Garland. imo

What a voice, what a talent, what a soul! People during her time didn't deserve her.

Judy Garland was so pretty and yet she never felt as pretty as she was and her singing voice, of course, has never been matched in its strength or beauty.

She is was one of the most beautiful woman I ever seen. But those fuck hèads always put her down.

Judy was a real icon. She's a national/world treasure. Her sweetness and passion we're pure, unpretentious and soulful. She was victimized and misused. God bless and rest her soul. May she be singing and flying freely always. True American excellence was a national/world treasure. Her sweetness and passion we're pure, unpretentious and soulful. She was obviously victimized and misused by the heartless studios, but they still couldn't break or stop her from shining because she was adored by her peers and public and she still is ! God bless and rest her soul. May she be singing and flying freely always. True American excellence

My dad was in love with Judy. As a private in the army, he danced with her for 60 seconds at the Hollywood Canteen during WWII, which were the best sixty of his 86 years on the planet. Judy touched a lot of souls with her presence.

Her voice 🔥🔥🔥 god it’s hauntingly beautiful

In my opinion, Judy will be forever the greatest singer in Hollywood! Hollywood should be forever ashamed of what they did to this poor woman!

Becky C...I think that Judy was certainly one of the very top female singers of her era, no doubt. And yes, Hollywood SHOULD be ashamed with how they destroyed Judy Garland; as well as many, many other great talents, but to be ashamed requires a conscience and Hollywood does not have one.

So young, but with such control and strength. No theatrics, no whistles. Just old school singing. Love it. When u got it, you got it

I adore the Wizard of Oz. She was the prettiest girl on that movie. And here she is pretty and adorable as never. How could people be so mean, so terrible. May she rest in peace, in heaven where she belongs. I am a recovering alcoholic, being sober by the grace of God since 1989. Not too many people have this privilege. I am eternally grateful to god.

That tone though! It's just full and rich in color. I just love it!

Although you can feel her magic, you can also feel the pressure to which she was subjected ....

She came straight out of heaven. So effortlessly. She just opens her mouth and the voice just comes out like that.

Always amazing to see all the Judy Garland experts in these comments.

She was a true national treasure. What a painfully beautiful voice she had! She had so much power for such a small stature at 4’11”. She’s brought me, a grown man and a tough guy to tears on multiple occasions. When she sings a song she owns it. She owned Merry Little Christmas also.

She casually prances offstage after totally slaying it.

It’s amazing how much Liza sounds like here.
