Brilliant!!! Classic.

My partner was a big fan of Ms. Lee that he sent her flowers when she was performing in San Francisco at the Fairmount. She was so gracious for the flowers and gave him tickets to see her show and he got to meet her after the performance. My partner passed away from AIDS and I was so grateful to Ms. Lee to give him opportunity to me her. Every time I hear Ms. Lee brings me back to that time to a happy and sad time in my life.

I always end up bawling when I watch this. My mom was the same age as Peggy Lee, and lived an unhappy life. When this song came on the radio in 1969, my mom always became very angry. She didn't want to believe that that's all there is, but the reality is, that's all there was - my mom's life didn't get better. She deserved better, and didn't get it.

Today this song is ringing in my ear. My grandmother used to sing it in her mid 60's. Now in my mid-60s, I finally understand the words:-) Is that all there is?

She's such a perfect combination between class, coolness, and wittiness.

By 1969 it was deep into the rock era and some thought Peggy was a relic from the past but them she came back on the scene and had this great tune at her very young age of 49. And then earlier in the year 57 year old Perry Como had a hit with "Seattle". Never count anyone out. Peggy reached #11 with this one. Amazing singer and actress as well.

I love this song. This song is one that keep me from ending it all after a bad break up. I have had many disappointments in life. But like Peggy I'm not ready for that Final disappointment.

Driving away from Memphis on my Honeymoon with my beloved wife (1969) This was magical...headed into the darkness after a wonderful dinner at Embers in Memphis...With rice in our hair...Now, she has been gone for now 15 years,...And I know about that final, devastating disappointment. Sometimes, That is ALL that there is. Cherish the ones that you love, because you never know what is just around the corner.

One of my Dad's favorite songs. Born on the lower West Side in "Hell's Kitchen" in 1919, when it was truly Hell, he passed in 1989. He moved to Newark, NJ in the early 50's when he married my Mom & raised 5 sons (I'm 4th of 5). He was a man of his time: WW2 Navy vet, strong, silent, handsome & "oddly" generous, since he grew up with so little. I was with him when he passed, along with my Mom & hospice... I was in my 20's... I'll never forget that day or my great Dad💔

My mother loved this song..she died in 1997..my son was talking about something..and he said..is that all there is..and boom I was back in 1969..just like that..

Something about this song gets me I can't explain it but I could listen to this over and over.

It's how I feel about life.

Peggy Lee was one of the greatest jazz singers in history. Smooth, sensual, powerful and impeccable. But this is something very different. Spooky, dark, mesmerizing. It is not a whimsical song. She's knows exactly what she's doing. This is highwire performing. Brilliant.

I've loved this song from the first moment I heard Miss Peggy Lee sing it! I was 17 then and I'm 70 now. And I still ask myself, is that all there is?

Classy, sophisticated, beautiful....Peggy Lee.

She's priceless.

Palm Royale on Apple TV will bring new life to this song.

The song I want played at my funeral.

Never screamed. Never busted a blood vessel trying to sing as loud as possible. No histrionics, no nudity or vulgarity...and Peggy Lee makes more of a lasting impact with almost a whisper than all the screechers combined. Gosh she was good.

Dec. 26, 1979, Columbus, GA, a chilly night. My 18th birthday (legal drinking age then), driving around in my friend's 72 Buick Electra 225 land shark, drinking beer and smoking cigars. Around 1 am we saw fire trucks beside a suburban house. Stopped and got out with our cigars to see what was going on. Firefighters brought out the bodies of two little girls and laid them on the lawn, gave CPR to no avail. I'd never heard of this song but it captures perfectly how that tragedy affected me. Lee was/is a genius of the highest order and I recommend her early 90s album "There'll be Another Spring," a work of reinterpreted classics and originals to anyone.

If that's all there is, if nothing we really do matters in the end, no destiny, no legavy, the only thing that matters is what we do, how we treat each other, and the joy we take in the small joys of life. Compassion. Kindness. Gratitude. Humility. Love. And some laughter.

Love her voice and style...she never "over sang" a song...just that pure beautiful voice and perfect tone and pitch.

It’s been a long time since I heard Peggy strange song but one that makes you think deeply ft

Incredible singer. Unbelievablely heartbreaking song. When the bf went away, and she thought she would die. But, she didn't. That line hits home.

I had a chance to see Miss Peggy Lee perform live twice....Once in a little nightclub called The Ballroom on Manhattan's West Side....And once in her one-woman Broadway show called "Peg"....She was so uniquely her own person, a great stylist and interpreter of the lyric; there was no other singer remotely like her....Her delivery was always just right....She always under sang a song, paying great attention to the lyrics....Watch her eyes and facial expressions as she weaves her magic telling her story in each song....She was a great chanteuse on the same level as Edith Piaf and Mabel Mercer....None of these great story-tellers of song will ever be forgotten....

And there she is. Back in our lives again in April 2015 my friends. So let's keep on dancing and bring out the booze.....cause that's all there is......

This song has gotten me through it for years. It's the gift that keeps giving. Thank you Peggy Lee. 💝

I have no idea what she's talking about, but the music arrangement is absolutely BRILLIANT!! The discordant melodies backing her vocals and lyrics borderline as creepy. It's simply beautiful! THIS is what we got in 1969. Imagine music anywhere near the sophistication of this song today?? Ha!!

Heard a bit of this song on an episode of Professor T. (the Belgian version). Had no idea it was Peggy Lee! Great song.

I never get tired of watching this video. LOVE IT!

WOW. She was Super lovely. Just Beautiful. Totally Blows My Doors off, -after I am able to shake off the paralysis induced by just gazing at her. I don't know what it is, nor how to describe it, except to say that whatever it is, it is what is "essential" -and it is largely invisible to the "eye", just beyond my own sensory-perceptual "circle of light." Seen clearly with the "Heart". This point of view and vantage point is as far as I know relatively unique to me and few others. Rare... Yet I'm sure that on some level, or in some fashion most Men at least, who have ever been totally enchanted by a woman... -can relate.

This is indeed the great Peggy Lee's most significant song of her fantastic reportoire. At 75 I find myself asking that very same question about the pourpose of Life !

"I'm not ready for that final disap-Pointment"... That is so essentially Peggy Lee. She just nails it. Unforgettable. One of my all-time favorites, this song and especially this particular performance.
