JUDY GARLAND: 'JUST IN TIME' WITH MORT LINDSEY. A DEFINITIVE VERSION.
Музыка
Performed by Judy Garland with Mort Lindsey on Episode 9 of 'The Judy Garland Show',October 4, 1963.
For me, this is the definitive performance by Judy of 'Just In Time'. Beginning as a slow, wistful hope ... and building to a crescendo of expression ... Judy modulates this song to perfection.
Words by Betty Comden and Adolph Green, music by Jule Styne, 1956.
Just in time
I found you just in time
Before you came my time was running low
I was lost
The losing dice were tossed
My bridges all were crossed
No where to go
Now you're here
And now I know just where I'm going
No more doubt or fear
I've found my way
For love came just in time
You found me just in time
And changed my lonely life that lucky day
Just in time
I found you just in time
Before you came my time was running low
I was lost
The losing dice were tossed
My bridges all were crossed
No where to go
Now you're here
And now I know just where I'm going
No more doubt or fear
I've found my way
For love came just in time
You found me just in time
And changed my lonely life that lovely day
Hey, you came along
I mean you came along
And changed my life that lovely day

I hadn't heard this song before. I knew it with Fantastic Judy 💞, just this year.. Today I looked it up in other versions. No one can hold the candle to Judy's version. Not even Dean Martin 👑, my absolute King. Peggy Lee's is pretty good. But the emotion I get listening to Judy, is totally different. It goes from her soul directly to mine. Mesmerizing Judy Garland 💞.. 🪻🌿
I love the way Judy Garland not only sings a song, but she acts it as well. She tells a story. What a miraculous talent!
When she starts to stand up, she launches into Garland mode and takes our breath away! ❤️🎶
All these comments so eloquently state her magic...Judy does more than perform...the music is part of her and she gives her whole heart to it. I love her and miss her more than ever.❣️
"I Could Go On Singing" is one of her very best films. There will NEVER be another performer like her.
She's been gone 50 years now, hard to believe she left us an only 47, the wonderful thing is she's lived on longer than she was alive, and she will be alive as long as there are those who appreciate a magnificent voice and talent. We miss you Judy!
She knew all of her arrangements right down to the last note. And she sang a lyric like no one else. Such a talented lady and how the business didn't treat her better throughout. She was GOLD. The standard by which we can measure all of those others who sing their voices and NOT pay attention to the lyric - and send it across like she did.
Judy could sing act & dance. She was the best performer a one of a kind! I miss her RIP Judy! ❤
How in the FUCK does she modulate like that? Half keys? Are you kidding me? My God, you can listen to her singing the same song a thousand times and still hear something new that she did better than ANYONE else. Seriously. I’d sound like I’d just fallen down a flight of stairs if I even tried anything like that.
This SONG & MORT LINDSAY AT THE PIANO , IN MY OPINION, DISPLAYS GARLAND' S INNATE MUSICALITY . IT ALSO. SHOWS SO CLEARLY HOW CRUCIAL IT IS TO WORK WITH A COMPLIMENTARY TALENT. I'VE NEVER TIRED OF WATCHING THEM WORK TOGETHER . CR
Judy was a talented gifted funny lady and its sad she had to die so young only 47 now shed be 100 by now !
Man oh man! How many times does this song modulate??? Love it …. True artist ❤️
Astonishingly beautiful Judy
What a pPowerful, soiuful vibrato in her contralto. Larger than life personality and strong charactetrof Judy the Queen !
Simple song becomes a 3-act play... brilliant! It doesn't get better than that!
This is the Judy Garland I love... The last years of her life may have been unspeakably tragic, but it also shows the depth of her art ,her ability to communicate..... With the exception of Sammy Davis jr and a few other performers, she was a shear icon of the entertainment industry 😘😍
The mutual respect between Judy and Mort Lindsey is palpable.
A timeless voice, "LITTLE GIRL, BIG VOICE"L.B.Metro. Still loves ya, JUDY ! XXXX.
In my opinion-the most brilliant and moving and yes, thrilling 3 minute vocal performance of the last century-sheer perfection ❤️

Stephen what a beautiful comment.
Live. No auto tune or pre-cord. The best there ever was.
I love this version. She did other versions I also love, but this is my favorite.
Has anybody noticed you can't take your eyes off Judy.

This is absolutely true!
First heard Judy sing this song in 1961. It was the Carnegie Hall show in S.F at the Civic Aud. As in this video she was sitting on the piano bench with Mort Lindsay and she stood up and started that strut downstage the audience went wild as we did often during her concerts. Judy was the best and still is the best! Hall

I know it's been said a zillion times, but, it's so true; you can feel her giving us EVERYTHING. It's such an amazing feeling to be transfixed, and 'eating it up'. 💐
It was Mort Lindsey's Orchestra who did the Judy Garland Shows. The music was excellent and complemented Judy perfectly. I think he truly cared about her.
God bless Kay Thompson for teaching Judy to use her face, hands and body as part of the song. It is ALL from Kay (Liza's godmother) a stupendous cabaret performer and creator of performers.

as a musician who cherishes every opportunity to accompany a gifted soloist, i am so moved by ms. garland's obvious love for mort lindsey. she understood and appreciated his support of her talent. god bless them both...
First modulation is a half step higher at end of 1st time through the tune, as she rises from piano, and 2nd key change another half step up at "I was lost,...", then a third modulation, this one a full step up at "For love came.../Just In Time, I found you Just in Time, &c.". I prefer her version w/ the huge tag finish to this one, where she sings" You went and changed my life, re-arranged my only life.You changed my lonely life,...that LOVE-LY DAY!" The Kid's a Killer.
omg this is beautiful and perfect. No one will ever touch Judy Garland. She was so amazing
Judy oh yes God you did it right
Everytime I saw a Judy's video singing, I think that every singing teacher should show them to his/her students, as an example of how to convey the feeling of a song. Beyond her technique, it was her heart, and how she poured it into a song, what makes her unique and timeless
How magnificent.
also my favorite arrangement of Garlands
I love this one because of the way she starts sitting with Mort. And those brilliant key changes.
I call garland the Percolator - she makes you feel things and then as you listen those feelings bubble up and come spilling out with or without your permission - joy , sadness , whatever feeling ! Here sheer joy ! A muse - stirring ( percolating ) feelings to the surface - the percolator !!!!

This is the perfect description 🤣 I feel the same way.
The greatest performer of the 20th century. Thanks for this post.
Wonderful ❣️🎬📺🌈
Judy is just PERFECTION!!! Miss you Judy!!! Rest in peace!!
This is entertainment! Judy is like a jet getting ready for take off...Unless people have walked in her shoes, Whitney's, whomever, they shouldn't be so quick to judge or comment. Just be appreciative God placed them in our lives, regardless of how short...
What a voice!
I loved Judy's sings great
I could watch and listen to her sing for hours--I do. God.
Wow, I miss this kind of music. Music has really changed over the years. One of my favorite singers. Wonderful!
Perfection!
This exquisite little lady loved to sing and perform and you can see it right here in this 3 minutes .What starts off as such a simple understated performance sitting on the stool with Mort on the piano turns into pure magic you just cannot look away from . There will never be another . 🙏🏻❣️
I’ve been a die hard Judy fan for 60 years and this is my all time favourite performance-she is simply brilliant-I’ve even left instructions in my will to have this recording played at my memorial service-along with “Hello Bluebird”, a close second 👍😚
I feel each word she sings, all her emotions just chill and thrill me. WOW ! What a talented Beautiful Soul she was and is; WILL ALWAYS BE.... Peace&Love
I love you Judy Garland! My hero❤❤❤
HUGE PERFORMANCE GREAT LADY🌹🌹🌹🌹☹️🌺🌺🌺JOANN LAMONICA. ONEONTA NY

Fantastic!!
unfortunately not the love for Judy has saved. It did not come just in time. but she is in our hearts!
THE BEST!!!
she's perfect😍 love her voice😍
The first half of the song is a musical conversation 😎
Pure joy! Love how she effortlessly changed key two times.
How great to hear a musical discription of the arrangement-and yes, I agreen the version you cite is the best!
Fabulous job.... Two thumbs up!
I really do love her❤️
powerful performance! I was taken to this journey of just in time.
Thanks for posting!!
Wonderful! She was truly one of a kind! I had the pleasure of meeting Mort Lindsay when he was in Atlantic City a few years back- a very nice guy and we found we had several friends in common and had a great old time swapping stories- a memorable night! I would love to have this entire series on DVD, to the best of my knowledge there are only bits and pieces available...
Love this version, here and on my ipod
One of the reasons Judy repeated songs on the series was that before she switched to the "Concert" format of the show, her voice was picked up by the overhead boom mic, which was forced to move with the cameras. Usually at the songs end, it has to move back to not be picked up in the frame as the camera pulls away from Judy. Often she is seen belting away with very little or no sound. She was unhappy with the sound for much of the series and, when they decided to do concerts and they bought an expensive new hand held mic for her, she felt she could better her first efforts and so she repeated many of the songs from the beginning of the series such as Old Man River, As Long As He Needs Me, Come Rain or Come Shine etc. Steve Sander's book answers a lot of "why's" about Judy's series.
Exalting!!!.
Это великая певица!
she sang it twice on the series....this version and the version where she is wearing the striped dress. the other version she sang it on was the 1962 special with Frank and Dean. I think she was particularly fond of this arrangement which he introduced in '62, but she quite expand her song selection throughout the series.
As the tempo speeds up watch the incredible 'language' of gestures and movement that make her live performances so powerful and unique. If you see earlier Garland NONE of this was there. It was ALL created for her by her brilliant friend Kay Thompson. Even the movements around the stage were created by Kay.

Iprefer the more bombastic and belting second version but this is great to
MY favorite is the version from the February 1962 Judy Garland Show Special with Frank and Dean. Maybe its just that I like the 1950's Judy sound, form 51 to 1961
She aged way too young. The tremble in her voice and hesitant movements. It became part of her "mystique." But one can only imagine if she were able to live a more normal life without drugs what her performances would be like and how much her age and wisdom would have added to those performances. I love her, but feel such sadness every time I see her struggling in these venues.
Thanks- I will do that! :->
Ask MGM and her late mother (now somewhere over the rainbow) who gave Judy drugs when she was just 7 years old gal. Yes, she was tiny as Mickey Rooney was- just 4.11, but her heart and soul was bigger than anyone else's.
hi, i´m searching a song recorded live, i thinking is a duet, more than 20 years ago, it´s a poutpourri song that contains other themes like "just in time-all right, ok, you win- baby ( you got what it takes"... anyone knows that version?
MicheleBell1, I am trying to send you a personal message, but it says I must be added as your contact. Any advice?
What's with the inconsistent lighting. Is Judy on or off her mark. The vocals are fantastic, and Mort an excellent pianist. But why sing the same song three or four times during one year of a series? I love Judy, but I wish that she had expanded her repetoire.
Steve
Good god Judy is so skeletal in this video
She is purely sensational even if she fell out of bed, but I don't like the sound of cigs and booze that came into her vocals toward the end.
Judy, I'd love a drink and a cigarette and a slow dance with you my darling
she got so thin she tried to put her hand on her hip and couldn't find it
Poor woman!Good singer, though.

GOOD? Judy was, is, the greatest of all time. As Norman Main said: you've got the something extra that Ellen Terry talked about. THAT'S JUDY. Moss Hart who wrote the screen play truly believed, and rightfully so, that Ellen Terry's remark described Judy to a tee.

Good is an insult. Have you listened to her Carnegie Hall album? If not, you definitely are not a Judy Fan.
Just in time a queen ant found me and she laid eggs in my skull, the volleyball named Wilson shouted at my mice so I burst the prick and threw him in the trash just in time. 🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜👸👳🐜🏄🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜👸👳🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃😀🐸🐭🐁🐀🐭🐭🐭🐭🐭🚮🚮🏄🏄🏄🚣🚣🏊🏊🏊🏊
