Perry Como Live - Once Upon a Time
Музыка
Perry Como's Kraft Music Hall. November 28, 1962.
With Mitchell Ayers' Orchestra.
"Bye, Bye, Birdie" and "It's a Bird - It's a Plane - It's Superman!" are among the Broadway shows of Lee Adams and Charles Strouse. The two also had a brief entry on the Great White Way titled "All American", and though it came and went without making much of a ripple in the season of 1962, "Once Upon a Time", the love song from the show, remained behind. Unlike the Adams-Strouse hits "Put On a Happy Face" and "I Want To Be with You", it is a sad and poignant reminiscence of all the things that happened or might have happened in the long ago.
(notes from "The Incomparable Como" Readers Digest UK compilation 1975)

I agree, even better than the other Como renditions you can find on KZread. Funny, though, the sound mixing here is of (I mean, the original TV recording)f, the orchestra is far too strong.

Frank Sinatra does it best! But this is still good.
One of the most beautiful songs in the world!
One of my favorites! Such easy listening. Mama and I loved Perry Como’s show, Daddy didn’t like it, but I didn’t know that. Perry’s show was so good!
A great man with a beautiful voice
Beautiful song with a beautiful voice... Thanks for the memories Perry...
Beautiful
Mr C never disappointed. He made it look like a stroll in the park. An absolute master!! Thank you as always.

He adds an extra something all his own to the flawless song. Just the right shading, loved it!
Effortless and smooth. Always brings a tear
Best vibrato in a tenor I have ever heard.
Perry Como and Al Martino, best versions I think.
Beautiful,tender,poignant .💙💙

Yes, he did, didn't he?/ Always..a pleasure, just lifted up..& listening to him.🌹
A lovely performance of a wonderful song.
Como was such a unique talent, he was able to make any song he sang his own. This is by far the best version of this song I have ever heard.
Love the song and love Perry.
The best singer ever ❤
Perhaps my favorite recording by Perry, from his most poignant album, "By Request". At 50 years of age, he never sang better. Thanks for posting this wonderful live version for all to see what a wonderful talent he was.

Possibly, the best version of this Lee Adams and Charles Strouse classic. Similar, musically and lyrically to Charles Trenet's En Ce Temps La', in French.
Superb
Great performance of a perfect song. But what an oddly shot segment.
Such a sad song. It's beautiful tho
great !
What does this song tell, when one is deeply in love?
I am just looking through some of your videos ,Cost, and stopped here.What a nice song....abd so true.🥰

He always seemed so polite, and low key to me. But sang well.
He also gave a good haircut
Better than fantastic.
Is there a CD available with this song on it ? I ;ovbe this version ...

Mr Como has a nice voice but he lacks the beautiful phrasing and musicality of Bobby Darin.
Beautiful
