I watched his show on Thursday nights when I was a teen. I'm an avid Elvis fan. But that didn't start for me until I had a dozen or so Dean LPs. You can tell the influence that Dean had on the singing voice of Elvis --especially in the 1950s doing ballads. I've read bios by two of his children. Pretty good stuff. Dean was the man that held the Rat Pack together --not Frank. I never cared much for Frank's voice. I like perhaps a dozen of his songs. But Dean?! Hundreds. He was as gifted in comedy as he was in singing. Jerry even admitted that Dean was funnier than him. To my knowledge Frank didn't record any song with some Italian in it. Dean was a first generation American. He didn't speak and English until first grade. Kids would make fun of his English troubles.

In my opinion Dino spoils the song by starting with the chorus rather than the first verse which ends on a suspended 7th or similar chord , meaning everything leads up the the crescendo of one of popular music's greatest sing-along choruses no matter what language you speak.. Martin ( who's singing I love as a rule ) puts this in as a bridge almost halfway through the song but the natural progression is lost compared to the original. So Many songs and films have been ruined on the grounds that American audiences wouldn't go for three verses in italian or french or the hero being English or Mexican etc. why do American media producers have such a low opinion of their citizens' cultural capacity?

Not only was Dean Martin an absolute crooner, he was an original member of the Rat Pack, with Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr. and Joey Bishop. He made some killer movies from the late 40s to the early 70s, and hosted the Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts. He was a national treasure of talent. Oh, and his comedy with Jerry Lewis is worth checking out too!

For a few years I had to drive down to Tampa, from Orlando, and pick up my grandmother to bring her from my aunt's to my mom's place. One time I brought my Dean Martin greatest hits CD for the drive. After 3 Dean songs in a row she asked, "What station is this" and when I told her it was a Dean Martin CD she couldn't believe I would buy that. I laughed and told her he was an all-time favorite! Who doesn't love Dean?

He's singing in Italian. He also acted in movies with the likes of John Wayne. Love him.

Dean Martin was my dog’s favorite singer. Whenever I would play “That’s Amore” his little Chihuahua eyes would get so droopy and serene.

Another great song by Dean Martin is 'Memories Are.Made Of This'. His style was so charismatic..Elvis called Dean Martin ,"The King Of Cool". He sure was.

Volare means Fly. My dad was born & raised in Italy. When he was 29 he came to America met my mom and the rest is history. My mom was Irish.

One of Deans best songs! It is Italian. "Nel blu, dipinto di blu" means "In the blue, painted blue." Here's a short snippet so you can understand what its about. Flying, oh, oh! Singing, oh, oh, oh, oh! In the blue painted blue. Happy to be up there. And I flew, I flew happily to the heights of the sun. As the world slowly disappeared out there, A soft music was playing just for me. And I was flying, was flying happily higher than the sun and still higher, While the world slowly, slowly was disappearing far away down there, a sweet music was playing just for me. I think, that dream does not come back ever again. I painted my face and hands blue. Then suddenly I was being kidnapped by the wind. And I began to fly in the endless sky.

Dean Martin is one guy who lived life to the fullest, extremely talented but didn't have a care in the world, one of the coolest guys ever.

As you can see by my user name and thumbnail I'm huge fan of Dean Martin. So much so that when he passed away on Christmas morning 1995 I have several friends (some who I hadn't seen since high school leaving condolence messages on my answering machine. I had the good fortune to see him perform live in Vegas. Also saw Sinatra live at the Universal Amphitheater in LA in 1984. Some other songs to check out by Dino are "You're Nobody Til Somebody Loves you? " "Ain't that a Kick in the head" The slow version of "Everybody Loves Somebody Sometime" "Evening in Roma" "Sway" "I wish you Love" "Cha Cha Cha De"Amour" "Your Other Love" "Cry Like a Baby"... okay I have to to stop now. But there are many more songs.

This is awesome! Dean Martin's version is great. May I recommend the original 1958 version of "Volare" which was #1 in the US but returned to #1 again after falling from #1. It's performed in Italian by Domenico Modugno. He was not only the singer but also one of the Lyricist of the song. Its proper Italian title is "Nel Blu , depinto de blu( Volare) and its by Domenico Modugno from 1958. Peace and Love ❤☺😁

Dean Martin exudes sexiness without even trying. When he sings he sings with a smile in his voice and he sounds so carefree. He never took himself seriously. He was big on being a family man at home in the evenings. He didn't hang out with his Rat Pack buddies drinking all night; he went home or to his room to watch tv. I AM SO HAPPY THAT YOU GOT BACK TO DEAN. I have been asking and asking. He did many songs in Italian and was very popular in Italy. His real name was Dino Paul Crocetti. Born in 1917 in Steubenville, Ohio and only spoke Italian until the age of 5. He had many odd jobs working in a steel mill, gas station, casino as a croupier/dealer. He went to Hollywood and met up with comedian, Jerry Lewis. They became a tea m; Dean the handsome singer/ straight man to Jerry's goofy, awkward, funny looking comedy guy. They made several movies together and were very successful for 11 yrs. Then they split. Jerry went on to make more movies and Dean did a fair share of successful movies too. But Dean had his biggest success with his singing style.....so relaxed and smooth. He was called The King of Cool. Here are some of Deans best songs: Everybody Loves Somebody Sometime ( live video from London concert), Sway, Return To Me, Memories Are Made of This, Send Me The Pillow That You Dream On, You're Nobody Til Somebidy Loves You. I suggest the Western Movie Rio Bravo with Dean and John Wayne and Ricky Nelso. There is a part in the Movie when Dean and Ricky sing a duet...My Horse My Pony and Me. It's a classic Western. Ricky Nelson was a teen idol back in the 50's and 60's and had his own singing career: Lonesome Town, Hello Mary Lou, ( Goodbye Heart) Dean had his own show On tv for several years. Check out Dean singing with The Mills Brothers: Paper Doll and Up a Lazy River. The Mills Bros. got their style from Bing Crosby and Dean formulated his style from Bing and the Mills Bros. Then I recommend that you listen to the Mills Bros. sing "Basin Street Blues" (live video with the Boston Pop 's orchestra). It has a surprise in the song). You can't go wrong with any of the suggestions I have made. I hope you are reading the comments on here. Volare is one of the songs I'd been asking for along with the others I've listed above. Don't take so long to get back to Dean please.

"" translates as "flying" "Cantaré" translates as "singing" The person in the song is in love and his heart is "flying and singing." Dean Martin was born Dino Paul Crocetti on June 7, 1917, in Steubenville, Ohio, to Italian parents. His first language was Italian and he spoke no English until he started school at the age of five. (I love you two. I love your show.)

I’m only 33, grew up listening to Dino and Franky. I can sing all their songs by heart, and I have many times. Weddings, funerals, grads and just dinners. everyone joins in. they bring us together like nothing else

This is just another reminder that you guys really need to do a movie reaction to The Cannonball Run. It’s HILARIOUS and Dean Martin is in it along with the great Sammy Davis Jr. and they are a riot. I think it’s also the first movie I ever saw Jackie Chan in. Terry Bradshaw is in it too. Trust me, you’ll love it.

@@sentinelmortgagecorp4291 I'm wondering if this is the movie with the license plate joke (don't want to say more and spoil things in case it is). Pretty sure the movie I'm thinking of had Kurt Russell in it; I might be combining two movies. Lol

Dean Martin lived about 20 miles from my home. He grew up in Steubenville, Ohio. They have celebrations every summer to honor him. He was a member of the "Rat Pack" with Frank Sinatra, Joey Bishop and Peter Lawford who was married to President Kennedy's sister. He had a voice beyond compare. His voice brings joy to my heart. Glad you enjoy his music too.

I live right up the river from there, and I work in Steubenville!

I can share that my sister-in-law saw Frank Sinatra in concert near the end of his life. She said when he came on stage, she was saddened to see how old he looked, but once he started singing she no longer noticed that and it was like she was watching the classic Frank giving one of the great performances she'd seen in her life.

My Dad's favorite singer so I grew up with this. I met his daughter (Deana) a absolutely lovely person. She sang with my son's orchestra and spent hours chatting with everyone afterward.

Love Dean and Volare! Instant memories of this song playing in the local Italian restaurant as a child. 😊❤

Dean martin was not only a great singer but a great actor as well!

This music was called Adult Contemporary, when I was a toddler. I'm almost 62 now, so good luck finding any of that audience still living. They are of a bygone era.

Oh, I love Dean Martin. He was such a funny guy, and BOY could he sing! I'll never tire of watching him in ANYTHING he's done. ❤.

I loved all his songs especially “when the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie” I loved my childhood 🥰

When I was a child I loved his voice and still do. He was a true crooner 💜 I'll never never forget that he passed on a Christmas day. He also was a not bad actor and had a variety show too✌💜

Dean Martin was the king of cool. LOVE his singing and acting...a class guy all the way.

Loved this guy my whole life. His TV variety show in the 60’s, his celebrity roasts in the 70’s. He was a great actor in movies and a naturally funny guy when he was on the Carson show. Oh yes, a great singer too. RIP Dino.

One of the best presents my father gave me for Christmas was Dean Martin’s greatest hits on CD. Pure heaven.

Dean had a fun variety show on TV from 1965-74; I almost literally grew up on it. He had the persona of a boozy ladies' man, and his comedy style charmed millions. In the Fifties, he was the straight man in a hugely popular comedy duo with Jerry Lewis, and at that time Lewis was considered by many (wrongly) to be the real talent. Dean's "Everybody Loves Somebody Sometime" became his theme song, and you should definitely check it out!

You could hear it in Dean Martins voice that it was good to be Dean Martin and he knew it. He always had fun and showed his fans how much he appreciated them. As far as speaking Italian goes, my uncle Angelo spoke fluent Italian, especially when he was mad. It sounded so cool when he would get going, eventually my aunt Luella(we all called her Lala) would shut him down, all she had to say was "Angelo", the he would stop.🥲

My favorite Dean Martin song is Everybody Loves Somebody Sometime !!! Simply BEAUTIFUL!!

I love Dean... Chapel in the Moonlight is one of my favorites.

He's amazing. His voice is liquid gold. He was a great comedic actor with Jerry Lewis. A great actor overall, he was in Western with John Wayne, Also a part of Frank Sinatra's " Ratpack"

THE KING OF COOL !! Dean Martin !

I beg you to watch him live! Not only does he have a stunning voice, but he is very funny and charismatic. He usually works comedy into his show and could make an audience die of laughter in the middle of a serious song! I would have to say that I prefer Dean Martin to Frank Sinatra for this reason

Jay & Amber, you'll love his "Everybody Loves Somebody" and "Return To Me"!!

Love Dean Martin!!! He will always be the definition of cool! It was another era....a world away from where we are now.

LOVE Mr. Dean Martin!!❤ more crooners soon please. More rat pack!!! You have to see Dean as an actor too!!!

How strange that I've had this song in my head today. I don't speak the language but I remember it well by Domenico Modugno, who had the big hit with it. But you can't go wrong with any Dean Martin!

In The Blue Sky, such a beautiful song, sung partially in Italian. Domenica Modugno released this in July, 1958 and Dean released it in August, 1958. Dean's smooth and debonair appearance, always coming across as your best friend on his TV show, makes for a beautiful record. He always had a drink and a cigarette on his TV show, which was usually apple juice, giving you the idea he was slightly lit. He choose apple juice because it looked like boubon. Lol Such a great voice. Great reaction. Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️ ❤️ 🇨🇦🇨🇦

When I was a teenager we weren't supposed to like music like this. But I was a closet Dean Martin fan. My mom actually got me to like him and others like Engelbert Humperdinck. Tom Jones. There's no way I would have admitted it to my friend till I got older. Then I didn't care, because I find out they like the them just the same. What a trip, huh?

The song is originally an Italian song called "Nel blu, dipinto di blu" by Italian singer Domenico Modugno. Modugno's version won the first ever Grammys for Best Song and Best Record. In 2005, it was voted the second best song ever performed at the Eurovision contest, behind ABBA's "Waterloo".

I love him. My Dad sounded so much like him. Thanks for the wonderful memories.

He was my favorite of the rat pack.

He's actually Italian...I think his real name is/was Dino Martinelli or something like that! Great comedy duo of Dean Martin/ Jerry Lewis is also worth watching...dozens of movies together!

"Return To Me" is my favorite Dean Martin song, give it a listen.

The language is absolutely Italian. Dean is Italian and has been known to speak it and sing it. My mom used to love this song because my grandfather used to sing it around the house when she was a baby/child. 🙂 When my brother and I were born, she sang it to us and told us about our grandfather, and on occasion, she'd play the record. My grandmother would do the same at her house and talk about my grandfather, and how much he would have spoiled us like he did with his own children. 🙂♥️

Couldn't click on this fast enough, deano was my favourite of the rat pack.

After an amazing career in nightclubs and the Los Vegas stage, Starting in 1965, Dean Martin was the host of the hit television variety program The Dean Martin Show, which centered on Martin's singing and comedic talents and was characterized by his relaxed, easy-going demeanor. From 1974 to 1984, he was roastmaster on the popular Dean Martin Celebrity Roast, which drew celebrities, comedians and politicians. Throughout his career, Martin performed in concert stages, nightclubs, audio recordings and appeared in 85 film and television productions.

I knew a couple of studio musicians (back in the day) and both had worked with Dean Martin they said that he's absolutely a what you see is what you get' person. Neither of them could say enough good things about him. Loved him when I was five and still love him all of these decades later!

Dean is so good. He's a legend during the crooner era. Song suggestion: Al Martino--Spanish Eyes (1967). He's another crooner to check out.

Volare è una canzone italiana cantata da Domenico Modugno al Festival di Sanremo nel 1958 (se ricordo bene). Da lì si cantò in tutto il mondo. Vero titolo della canzone "Nel blu dipinto di blu" ma il ritornello orecchiabile fece sì che si intolasse "Volare".

This is based on an Italian song recorded by Italian singer-songwriter Domenico Modugno. The original is completely in Italian and it is considered a classic! It also won at the 1st Annual Grammy Awards, with Modugno's recording the first ever Grammy winner for both Record of the Year and Song of the Year.

One of my all time favorites. You can just picture his smile as he sings. Always sounds like he's enjoying himself. Check out "SWAY"

Dean’s voice was like silk. Check out him singing Sway, then Michael Buble’s version of it.

Dino was part of The Rat Pack with Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis, Jr. His biggest hits were ‘Everybody Loves Somebody Sometime” and “You’re Nobody ‘Til Somebody Loves You.” Blessed with perfect pitch, Dean Martin played the drunk on stage, but word is he actually didn’t drink much at all. There are lots of frank/Dean/Sammy performances on KZread.

Dino Paul Crocetti aka Dean Martin born 1917 in Steubenville, Ohio. The King of Cool. Not only a great singer but a damn good actor and comedian too. There is another crooner that a lot of people have never heard of because he didn't have tons of hits. His name is Frank Ifield (pronounced eyefield) and his best known song is "I Remember You". Give him a listen, he has an amazing voice.

Dean Martin's real name was Dino Crocetti. He was from Steubenville, Ohio

Dean Martin is my favorite crooner! Never saw him, but I did see Elvis!🥰

Dean Martin is Italian as well as Frank Sinatra, Vic Damone, Perry Como, and Tony Bennett. I grew up with Dean Martin and the others music in my home which is tied to sweet memories. I loved the Dean Martin Show that came on every week with his dancers, the Golddiggers.

I LOVE when he'd sing in Italian. Such a velvety smooth voice and my favorite of the "crooners".

I so remember the Dean Martin Show from the mid-to-late 60s. It was basically Dean doing comedy or singing with whatever guest he had. Both the guests and the songs were fantastic.

Saw Frank, Dean, Sammy, Elvis, Tom Jones, Wayne Newton & countless others. That's was the best part of living in Vegas. I miss those days.

Dean martin is my favorite,and my grandmother just loved him.She got to meet him in Del Rio Texas when he was making a movie with John Wayne.

He had a television show in the 60s or 70s that was pretty funny. I have a huge painting of this guy in a burgundy velvet smoking jacket! It's packed away. Yes he is Italian.
