You can tell from these clips, that Judy always got a genuine kick of appreciation from the talent of her peers. In spite of her immense talent, Judy was no snob or diva. She was a very loving soul. RIP Lovely Ladies. 🌈

It amazes me how much Lena made Judy smile. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her that happy performing. They both were great and awesome!!!!

This was probably the most sweetest thing ever. Such great chemistry together!

The only two people who had that 'thing" in their voice that just made a song bigger and bigger the further they got into a song, even when they were singing soft. I've always only recognized that trait in these two here. What a joy to get to this stage in life and KZread makes it possible for me to see them TOGETHER, which I never would have seen any other way as this aired 14 years before I was born.

Two powerhouse STARS! The chemistry they had was amazing. As I watch Judy watching Lena, you can see that she was mesmerized by the way she sang and performed. Lena not only was a one-of-a-kind singer, but her whole face performed as she sang!

Allegedly CBS execs didn't like Judy Garland touching her guests which supposedly contributed to them canceling her show

Because of Judy and Lena is why I wanted to do theater, dance, and most of all…sing!! At the age of three, Seeing Judy singing “Over The Rainbow” for the first time, my life has forever changed. And as for Miss Lena Lorne! I will be 45 years old in a few days and I could never be happier than hearing such women who has made a such impact in music and for women!!!

Despite having such different personalities, they have very similar vocal coordination. The MGM influence is really apparent. The composer and vocal arranger Hugh Martin worked with both of them, as well as Roger Edens, of course, and Kay Thompson. In the 1940's, Judy and Lena socialized quite a bit at Gene Kelly's house parties and did a lot of singing in his living room! Can you imagine how incredible that was to hear?

They remind me of girls at a sleepover. Sort of like me and my friends when we get together and act silly. Love this clip.

Judy sings so effortlessly. I love this duet. They are having so much fun together. Lena is awesome. I love this video.

They are magic together. Imagine if they’d done a duet album of jazz standards and a concert?! If there is an afterlife I hope they’re performing together now💕

When I look at this pairing I want to scream the word "racism" for Lena and what she was denied, but I can't. It wouldn't address what happened to Judy. Both of these women were shafted. At least Lena Horne had the black community and her father's protection to keep her sane. Judy got the full brunt of Hollywood's depravity and corruption. What I love about this video is the obvious appreciation that these two women have for each other. They are sitting closely, holding hands and joking like friends on a playground. They are having fun. Both paid a heavy price to be able to sit together and enjoy the level of mastery at which they are performing. The ramifications are staggering. Thank you for posting this clip.

O.M.G - Lena Horne is just FABULOUS and Judy is, as always, beyond all comparison.

the beauty, talent and RAW power these gracious ladies possessed is OFF the charts !!!!

Judy loved talent. She adored Lena Horne and liked Diahann Carroll They were on her 1963-64 show. I remember seeing these shows as little kid. Also Lena dated Vincent Minnelli, and Judy married him.

These two ladies really knew how to sing, just beautiful. This is real music and not the rubbish of today.

Grace and talent like this doesn't exist anymore. This is simply INCREDIBLE!

Two Great Icon's & Friends laughing, singing & having fun together. Terrific Talents !!

Yes, a bygone era. Also, throw in Martha Raye ("Feelin' The Way I Do"), Sophie Tucker, "One of These Days..."), and Mabel Mercer, (anything be Cole Porter), for starters! Say, try listening to Josephine Baker's "I've Got You Under My Skin," one of Cole Porter's many evergreens. Yes, indeed, a BYGONE era, for sure!

I wonder what Judy would have thought of Lena playing in the Wiz years after her death. This video is a treasure. Two legendary women.

I like how each one takes a turn singing part of a song that the other made famous. that's why the cubes say Judy sings Lena and Lena sings Judy.

It was great to see Lena warm up to Judy by this time into this episode. The beginning you can see Lena wasn't too warm to Judy when they did the opening number and Judy tried very hard for Lena to open up and Judy was always a great hostess. Judy was a very giving performer, never afraid of sharing and shining the spotlight to her guests, especially female guests. Judy was very comfortable and never felt threatened by anyone she shared the stage with..

Hollywood missed the boat with Horne. They could've extracted much more from that fine wine than they did. Like her counterpart, Frank Silvera, himself of the same mixed heritage, or even Merle Oberon, also of mixed heritage, Horne could've been cast in a variety of ethnic roles. Anthony Quinn and Charles Bronson often played out of their respective ethnicities. We didn't get enough Horne the fantastic dancer. Would've loved to see her teamed with both Kelly and Astaire in a paso doble. But luckily enough, we do have something worth hanging onto in remembrance of Horne!

Phenomenal chemistry 😊

It's a tragedy that Lena Horn was so badly affected by the idiotic production codes of the 30s to 50s. She was a star - she was so talented even being barred from leading film roles because of the miscegenation rule couldn't prevent that - but she should have been a megastar.

"Idiotic production codes?" You mean RACISM? It's crazy how some of you have a problem calling it what it is?

Judy might not have shown up for rehearsals during her series but she was amazing when it was air time. She had a photgraphic memory. Judy only needed to be shown something once or twice. Sid Luft said that she only read the script for A Star is Born once & never picked it up again. It's natural that when you have that kind of gift, it becomes second nature to us & we forget that not everyone has the ability to memorize so precise. Judy needed little direction & her work speaks for itself.

To me, Lena Horne was a mega star. A very talented lady who gave her all. I feel blessed to have had the privilege to hear her perform.

It's so incredible to see certain stars performing together.

To be in any line of artistry. Is to become the best you can be at your craft. But becoming a master at it. Borderlines insanity. But the beauty is what they share with the world. Thank you for everyone who gives there all. Beautiful...

Judy worked well with a wide array of guest artists & easy to access Judy & Lena are having a great time together...anyone who has experienced various complete concert episodes in Box Sets of this phenomenal series know Judy was at the top of her game, looking amazing and sounding fantastic in total peak form, too bad this great show didn't go a few more seasons, sadly it is obvious Judy gave so much more than she got back, yet with this treasure of incomparable performances it remains clear Judy was the greatest ever!

Have you ever wondered how much talent you used to be able to put together on a TV screen? Here is a fine example!

I’ve never seen this clip before, and what absolutely struck me silent is that I think this is the first time I’ve ever heard someone sing a Judy Garland song…and it just sounded right. So now I’m a Lena Horne fan.

CLASSIC CLASSIC CLASSIC!..oh my where have these days gone..such CLASS they were jus classy ladies with style and finesse.

I just read that in 1964 more people sat down to watch Bonanza in preference to these two amazingly accomplished and talented women. Tump tiddle ump tiddle ump Bonanza ???? Oh my!

My goodness me……2 powerhouses. Unmatched

The way their tones meshed into one on "Trolley"...wow.

Why is it that when any two legends collaborate people want to turn it into a competition between them? Just enjoy the music and embrace it for what it is. Sheesh!

Judy...Judy...Judy. The Miracle Woman!

This was wondrously entertaining.

Beautiful Queen, Rest in peace Angel Wings❤❤

They tore those songs up!!!

Good God Almighty, I still have goose bumps as I type this, we lost so much when these two women passed.
