Perry Como Live - Wind Beneath My Wings
Музыка
Evening at Pops. August 14, 1988.
The orchestra conducted by John Towner Williams.
The song "Wind Beneath My Wings", recorded for "Today" in 1987, two years before it was a hit for Bette Midler, was meant to be somewhat autobiographical. Como also sang this song some 5 years earlier as a tribute to Como's boyhood idol, Bing Crosby.
Origin: • Perry Como Tribute To ...

Perry Como represented all that was good in his singing and in his lifestyle. Never any scandal or bad publicity. Today's entertainers should take a page out his book and stop acting like spoiled children. He was one of a kind. R.I.P. Perry

So, so smooth, what a great guy
I didn't remember until now that that was a song {Wind Beneath My Wings}. I purchased a wall hanging with those words and hung that in my husband's bathroom years ago. It is still there.
Amazing, it's so emotional it was my husband's favourite! I'm so sad he died, we were married for 42 years! this breaks my heart ...I miss him so much !

So was my wife for 46 years. "The wing beneath my wings" I was nothing without her! I miss her terrible....
Such a wonder talented man. Great family man with a voice never to be forgotten.
Of all the versions of this classic I think Perry's rendering of this song was the best. Really touching and stirring the heart strings. T.Heslop.UK.

Makes me cry every time, especially when he says "nothing" as in "I would be NOTHING without you". God only made one of him, and thankfully, I was here when Mr. Como was.
Perry. Como you are the number. One singer off all times i love you
I grew up listening to Perry, mostly on Christmas Eve, such a beautiful person with a beautiful voice, love & miss him ❤
My favorite. Only Perry Como can sing this. Such class.
What a superb version of this beautiful song by this quite magnificent singer who effortlessly brings out the emotion and feeling with his wonderful voice.Best version ever.Briliiant.
Such class! No need for fireworks, fog machines, and flashing lights. Just him.

Beautifully accompanied by his friend and talented arranger Nick Perito on piano, he did a great job. This was recoreded while Perry was at the Boston Pops.GREAT.

No doubt it was, met her when she was sixteen and knew she was the one!
This no doubt this was for Rosellle but a part if it was also for Bing. He and Roselle were married since they were both young and his love for her was undying. Thank God they spent their last years together down in Jupiter in their beautiful home. We miss you Perry , Love Jeff and Linda
He gave the perfect interpretation. Darn shame he didn't have the hit. He got to it first.
He had a beautiful voice even in old age! Im happy knowing millenuals are discovering him! I guesd goid music continues down generations even though us oldsters constantly attack the youths listening habits!
The First Class of Hollywood "Fifty-6" ... Mr. Perry!
His recording of this for hi album was taken from this PBS salute to Bing Crosby, this was beautiful the way Perry made this song his own, he was a great performer and close friend, Perry we miss you more everyday !!

I very much have wanted to advocate that the Boston Pops do a similar tribute to Perry. What are your thoughts J. L.?
Beautiful arrangement and beautifully performed by a unique gentleman.
Love you so much... Wish i were born your time... See you in heaven
One of my favorite songs.
One of my favorite song!!! In the voice of the one and only for me Mr Perry Como❤
Much better rendition by Perry, of course. This is a beautifu song made even more beautiful by Perry and of course arranged and accompanied by Nick Perito on the piano. You can tell its Nicks arrangement by just listening to it. Two GREAT performers working together to make a good song even better.
For some unfathomable reason RCA in their infinitive wisdom decided to not release this as a single, much to the chagrin of Perry. His performance of this song which is already a standard, is simply beautiful, not only Mr. Como's rendition, but the sumptuous accompaniment of the orchestra and chorus.
Wonderful Perry👍🙏
It is as if he had never missed a step. He was a true one and only!
Superb
The Best Perry Como
Makes me cry indeed 😢❤
My favourite song and idol. Thank you for sharing.

I love the song
Simply a great man
April 2021Two songs stood out way above the rest of the pop classics in the last half century.This was one of them the other The power of love. I think this version of Perrys was the best .whilst The Power of Love sung by its composer Jennifer Rush was the other.Thars how think. T.Hslop. UK.
Great love song!
This song always makes me cry,l don’t know why l listen
It was fitting that Perry gave tribute to Bing. Early on in his career, you could hardly tell the difference between him and Bing. Of course, he found his own niche later on. You would not confuse him with Bing on this song for example. But singing like Bing was how he got his career going. There were many singers back then who tried to sound like Bing. Perry was special in that he developed his own style as times went on,
Love him.
Love, love Perry!
most unique and peaceful voiced I'd all his songs when I did the clubs
most unique and peaceful voice I did all his songs when I did the clubs

Perry does this song BEST (IMO). He has the right kind of sympathy. Bette is good (and had the hit) but . . . .

He was singing to his lovely wife❤
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. It must have been cold there in my shadow, to never have sunlight on your face. You were content to let me shine, that's your way. You always walked a step behind. So I was the one with all the glory, while you were the one with all the strength. A beautiful face without a name for so long. A beautiful smile to hide the pain. Did you ever know that you're my hero, and everything I would like to be? I can fly higher than an eagle, 'cause you are the wind beneath my wings. It might have appeared to go unnoticed, but I've got it all here in my heart. I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it. I would be nothing without you. Did you ever know that you're my hero? You're everything I wish I could be. I could fly higher than an eagle, 'cause you are the wind beneath my wings. Did I ever tell you you're my hero? You're everything, everything I wish I could be. Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle, 'cause you are the wind beneath my wings, 'cause you are the wind beneath my wings. Oh, the wind beneath my wings. You, you, you, you are the wind beneath my wings. Fly, fly, fly away. You let me fly so high. Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings. Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings. Fly, fly, fly high against the sky, so high I almost touch the sky. Thank you, thank you, thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings.
why this version was not the big hit is beyond me, it is so much better then Bete.

Your VOICE had ALMA...

Omg, the SCTV sketch was spot on! lmao 🎶💤😂
Remember when singers treated the song as a friend instead of a foe to go 15 rounds with. Even in R&R era, they did not fight with the song, but today, that is considered the norm for singing.
❤️
🎉🎉🎉 ❤❤❤ 💪💪💪
You have to go deeply into the philosophical meaning of the lyrics to appreciate the message. The saying: "Behind the back of a great man, there's always a great woman" illustrates the meaning of the song. How many times We have a wife who is exactly that: ""The wind beneath our wings" that helps reach heights of success in life. We honor Mothers once a year with the MOTHER'S DAY HOLIDAY , when We should honor them everyday. Humanity depends on Mothers for the propagation of the SPECIES, how could we ever do without them? THINK ABOUT THAT VERY HARD! BYE
Why aren't modern song writers producing works such as this; or by the Brother's Gibb??
🙏
In one program I saw, he said it was really for his wife.
Пери человек с огромным ❤️ сердцем
