- Song from the Broadway musical "My Fair Lady" sung by the character Freddy Eynsford-Hill. Presented in its theatrical form from a video clip from the 1964 movie version and its popular standard sung by Vic Damone.
The character Freddy Eynsford-Hill was portrayed by the British actor Jeremy Brett. Although a singer in his own right, his singing voice for the film was dubbed by Bill Shirley, an American singer-actor.

I enjoyed this movie but I absolutely adored Jeremy Brett's performance - what a handsome talent! If there are otherJeremy Brett fans reading this - wasn't he fabulous as Sherlock Holmes inthe PBS series? May he rest in peace.
I love and adore Jeremy Brett !
Me too!😊
...... well ....here goes..... Me Three....
I loved him as Freddie! I adore him as Sherlock Holmes ❤️
Yes, he was so beautifully, incredibly ENGLISH!😊😊😊😊 And bloomin' handsome🤣🤣🤣🤣 I have forgotten that he could sing so well. Incredible.
I remember reading the postscript that Shaw was badgered into writing, Eliza indeed married Freddy, and together they borrowed money from Colonel Pickering so they could open a flower shop.
She did, though. George Bernard Shaw said in the notes of the original play that she did marry Freddy and have a flower shop just as she wanted. The relationship between her and Higgins was always meant to be platonic, as much as they loved each other.
Absolutely. Higgins and Eliza’s story works so much better as unrequited romantic love on his part. By the time he realizes how he really feels, it’s far too late.
If Jeremy William Huggins Jeremy Brett) appeared outside my door even singing this song in his own voice, I would be more than delighted . . .
I’d marry him in an instant 😂❤
Absolutely a beautiful song! One of my all time favorites.
The actor Jeremy Brett is amazing.
I may faint and never wake if a man were to go and sing this outside my door at night.
sparkleavery Then I guess he'll just have to wake you, Sleeping Beauty. ;)
Katie Rose Wells You what's ironic is that I think that the guy who sang this, sang for Prince Phillip in Disney's Sleeping Beauty 😊
Actually it was Bill Shirley. lol
So you'd die?
I'll be over this evening.
I loved JB as Sherlock Holmes. But when I saw the film My Fair Lady, I was blown away. Whether that was his singing voice or not. He was just gorgeous *swoon*
I'm gonna get in trouble for saying this , but too bad, here goes. I love this song , I love this character, I love this actor. I simply must say of all the men I've ever been attracted to he is my first pick. He is handsome in the extreme, has a noble bearing, this regal stature, perfect posture, gorgeous features, excellent speech patterns..... you name it, he's got it. I had this tremendous crush on him for several years, and I'm not a groupie, but I will say I'm a fanboy, and a hopeless romantic. He was just so beautiful, we'll miss him sorely, God bless and rest his soul. Ok I'll stop gushing now, apologies.
Ty Nash Agree with absolutely everything you said! Jeremy Brett was in a class by himself! What an astonishing man!
See Jeremy Brett (RIP) as Sherlock Holmes, BBC. You will love it.
The definitive Sherlock Holmes. Absolutely brilliant.
Lol.....at 14, saw the film in its original premier...on a 70mm screen. And had an instant 'crush' on 'Freddie'...and if I were a 'Newsie' in Edwardian Times, that would be the demeanor of a Man, would 'shine-for'....agreed apply with all of your descriptions..and had...Freddie just oozed that 'Oxford, Upper class' Studness, that just quietly 'Roars'.
@@stanochocki8984 when I was little I had two different crush, Sherlock Holmes and freddie. When I realize they were the same actor I was overjoyed
I felt in love with this actor ever since I saw this movie for the very first time long time ago when i was 17
My parents owned this album and as a child this was always my favorite song. It still is. CHILLS.
This was a beautiful scene from a truly beautiful movie. I think "My Fair Lady" was one of Warner Brothers best movies.
FYI, Freddy's singing voice was done by Bill Shirley aka Prince Phillip from Disney's Sleeping Beauty.
I KNRW HIS VOICE SOUNDED FAMILIAR!!!!!!
Damn, damn, damn. Thanks for breaking my heart. Where is Bill Shirley.?
@@jbeaupre1800 Cashed his chips in 1989.
What an amazing voice Bill Shirley had
This was the "song of the show" - apparently Rex Harrison tried to have it cut! Thank goodness it was needed to fill in between scenes or , due to his strong influence and importance, Rex could have had his way
Lovely Jeremy Brett, the better Sherlock of the History ❤️ and an adorable partner for dear Audrey. Thanks for sharing.
this is so enchanting! exactly how falling in love feels. i simply adore the freddy eynsford-hill version, even if it was dubbed.
It is a great voice and gives so much emotional power to this song.
What a perfect voice & so very handsome !
Funny how in the movie this romance never materialized. Too bad, I love this song. One of the best musicals ever made.
Agreed I always said that had she gone with Freddy in the film it would have been completely out of left field.
+HyperCriticalCritic When I first saw the film I was amazed she didn't go with Freddie. Then at the end it made some sense otherwise the whole deal with Higgins was inconsequential.
Yes he's a great actor.
Jeremy Brett was so handsome.
So hoping that Eliza ended up with Freddy.
+sashaqueenie She did marry Freddy in the original version ("Pygmalion").
I know that, which is why I am so pissed that they changed the ending.
Lol you silly cows... he's a total idiot. Unable to find a job, he got just a childish crush and behaves like a 14 years old. But he's good looking so Eliza should choose a total bloke... LOL
Enchanting! My Fair Lady is full of many moments like this! 🎭
My favorite movie. Love the music!
Quite simply, a superb song.
Greetings from Lima, Perú.
... And after singing for Miss Doolittle, Jeremy Brett throws out his top hat, puts on his deerstalker cap and his Inverness cape, joins Edward Hardwick (Dr Watson) and goes on to Godolphin Street to resolve the mystery of The Second Stain. ;D
Thanks.
Love this song so much. It is so romantic! Give me a crooner any day.
I have this score on my iPod and every time I listen to this song, I swoon knowing that Prince Phillip is actually singing. Jeremy Brent was perfectly cast as Freddy, but I squealed like a little schoolgirl when I finally figured out the identity of that familiar, romantic voice. Mary Costa (the voice of Sleeping Beauty) claimed that she and all her friends had major crushes on Bill Shirley. I can imagine why...
this was my beloved mums favourite song from her favourite musical, sadly she died in 1987,listening to it brings tears to my eyes, god bless you mum I miss you so much.
Jeremy Brett is my favorite actor/singer.He has everything any man would want to have -- good looks, talented and very successful. Too bad he died young at 61. May his soul be in heaven!!!
Although Im a guy and this is sort of known as a chick flick...I love this movie and song. I have watched MFL at least a dozen times. It never ages...Classy, clever, comical and thoroughly endearing. It was my moms favorite movie and after she passed in 2008, its a piece of her I keep with me...And always will.
samuel kirk I'm what I call myself a manly man and a large truck driver at that.Isay a guy who loves this movie and song is a REAL man because a real man has a lot of class! I'm sorry about your mom.Just be reassured she is still with you in spirit and you'll see her again.God Bless!
Appreciate the kind words my friend. This is truly one of the greatest musicals ever with equal parts romance, humor and style. Thanks again rockerdriver.
Samuel Kirk: The beauty of movie classics like this is that even guys like ourselves can enjoy and envelop how these films enrich our lives........and they hold a special place in our hearts especially because our mothers also shared our enthusiasm in these classics. I lost my mother in 2013 and I share your sentiment. My mother was a 1930's - 1950's singer/dancer. In her later years we enjoyed watching old classics and musicals together. One of my favorite Audrey Hepburn classics is Breakfast at Tiffany's, which is a movie that changed my life. In a world full of such acrimony it is comforting to know that guys like you are gifted with true feelings and respect for art and music that otherwise would stigmatize us. No matter what anyone thinks, you keep enjoying the classics. Thanks.
this is not a chick flick
Perhaps in the future don't call movies "chick flick". It's a sexist term. BTW a movie that deals with emotions, love and has songs in it is not "lame" (as the use of "chick flick" suggests). Don't men also have emotions and fall in love too?
i knew a mother who loved this movie, especially this song. she used to sing this when ever it came on. lol
When she mentioned how her aunt bit off the spoon,
She completely done me in.
And my heart went on a journey to the moon,
When she told about her father and the gin.
And I never saw a more enchanting farce
Than that moment when she shouted
"move your bloomin' "....
I have often walked down this street before;
But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before.
All at once am I Several stories high.
Knowing I'm on the street where you live.
Are there lilac trees in the heart of town?
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
Does enchantment pour Out of ev'ry door?
No, it's just on the street where you live!
And oh! The towering feeling
Just to know somehow you are near.
The overpowering feeling
That any second you may suddenly appear!
People stop and stare. They don't bother me.
For there's no where else on earth that I would rather be.
Let the time go by, I won't care if I
Can be here on the street where you live.
They just don't write lyrics like this anymore, do they?... Sigh! "Does enchantment pour out of every door?" ... No it's just from a Lerner & Lowe score!
Oh my. What a BEAUTIFUL LOVELY VOICE! OH MY GOSH! My heart...
Truly beautiful music that warms the heart!
Freddy Eynsford-Hill, Mr. Brett, was lovely with this contemplative romantic gothic air on his face, in the late english victorian high society, these tender & serious gestures with penetrating gaze. Great and handsome actor. In Sherlock role; it seemed it was made for him, and it was perfecting. He could sing so well, why dubbed?. A "chaskepearian" theatre actor?; the street, the flowers, the streetlight, the buildings; what a beautiful scene!!!, extremaly romantic.
Dubbed because they thought his voice sounded too old for Freddy.
Expander the e, yo
@@jacquigriffin5973 Maybe because he was baritone, not tenor.
@Lonestarry Jeremy Brett IS Sherlock Holmes! I have recently discovered the 80's series on netflix and I'm so in love with him!! I would never ever have thought of him in this role, but is shows what a good actor he was! He was simply delicious. Sorry my reply is so tardy, but I am a newcomer to the Jeremy Brett "fan club." LOL!
@Lonestarry Right you are, Lonestarry! Classically handsome yet just "geeky" enough to play the love-struck Freddy to the hilt! He was marvelous in a supporting role that added so MUCH to the film. The Lerner & Lowe score for My Fair Lady is wonderful and "On The Street Where You Live" has always been my favorite song in the show.
I will say, though Freddy's part was small, it left the audience wanting so much more. This is a great actor's choice in a supporting role.
I can listen to this song all the time
OMG beautiful.......esp the end!
What a wonderful song. My Fair Lady has always been my favourite film.
This is such a beautiful song from a great movie
My mom's (R.I.P.) favorite movie, she bought it when it came out on vhs in the 90s. It became my fave too. I was maybe 10 and felt my first...desirous feelings (in other words, a sexual awakening)...watching Freddy. I never told my mom he was my first movie crush! Looking back I wish I had, since he's just the kind of guy she would want for me. :)
Adore this movie!
I fell completely in love with him in this song 😫💘
Just love listening to this song. Randomly sing it round the house . Haven't seen the film in years but still remember the song so clearly .
Not bad for a man lip syncing, he’s gorgeous loved Jeremy Brett
He did sing the first part, before the housekeeper answered the door. That was Brett singing. The rest is someone else.
Thebestversionofthisong
I'm in love with this song and with this movie and with it's magic atmosphere and I'm totally in love with Audrey
WITHOUT A DOUBT! THE ONLY SHERLOCK FOR ME! @ 6 yr.s OLD, I WAS TOTALLY CONFUSED BY MY CONFLICTING FEELINGS FOR JEREMY BRETT & JOHN LENNON!!! THEN DOCTOR DOLITTLE & I COULDN'T GET OVER REX HARRISON OH MY! THEN GENE WILDER JUST DONE MEE IN AS WILLIE WONKA!!! SOMEBODY HAD SOME 'SPLAININ' TO DO BY THEN!! MY LOVE FOR MR. BRETT'S MASSIVE TALENT REMAINS. THANKS ALL :D
Una de las mas bellas comedias musicales,
Singing Sherlock a big fan of this actor.
His voice gives me chills 😍 can a man sing about his wonder in me?
Beatiful. I always swoon at this part of the film. I have a friend in England I've always longed to meet, so this song hits me deeply. Thank you for the video, much enjoyed.
Yes yes a thousand times yes!! I miss him so much X-(
Cuando uno ama tambien quiere la calle donde vive tu amado.cancion preciosa❤
Indeed.,That's why it's my favorite!
Thank you. My mother loved this song. Me either. !!!!
I think you mean me too
Absolutely loved it...♥️🎶😍
I always thought it was Jeremy Brett singing this song for years and tho' I love this rendition, I wonder why Jeremy didn't do his own singing as he is a singer for this movie. I also love Vic Damone singing the song, too! Pleasant surprise that it came on right after, I recognized his voice as I was such a fan of Vic's a long time ago.
+peoniesido , He was actually very unhappy at being dubbed. The studio though his (lovely) voice was too "mature" for Freddy, so they dubbed it, and forbade him from telling anyone. He revealed the secret in the 90s when the film was restored.
He did sing the very first part (at the before before housekeeper opened it). If you listen carefully, it's clear it is two different voices. I also don't understand why he wasn't allowed to sing the whole song.
I have loved this song since the first time I heard it decades ago. Thank you for posting it!
Love his voice.
You'll be great :) awesome song choice.
What an incredible irony. Jeremy Brett (who turned 30 during the filming of My Fair Lady) was dubbed because his singing voice was considered too mature for the character of Freddy Eynsford-Hill. The dubbing was done by Bill Shirley, who was 43 at the time...
No, I don't think it was about "mature", but rather different kind of a voice. Shirley was tenor and Jeremy was baritone. And they wanted a tenor.
Lovely interpretation!
wow what a nice music
No one but Vic Damone can do justice to this beautiful song
I know I may sound sappy, but it's so sad that Eliza Dolittle didn't get to marry Freddy Eynsford-Hill, instead of Professor Higgins! I mean, after all, Freddy is this sweet, charming, romantic person and Higgins is mean! :*(
On this day in 1958 {June 27th} Vic Damone's "On The Street Where You Live" reached #1 on the United Kingdom's NME chart
Two years earlier on April 21st, 1956 it entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart; it peaked at #4 and spent almost a half-year in the Top 100 {25 weeks}
Also in 1956 two other versions of the song charted; Eddie Fisher reached #18 & Lawrence Welk took it to #96
And eight years later in 1964 later Andy Williams recorded it & his version peaked at #28
RIP Mr. Fisher & Mr. Welk
Thank you for providing both versions of the song. Delightful.
Inolvidable My Fair Lady ,
This song makes my heart hurt
Evidently Brett claimed the song for some time, but finally admitted it was the voice of Bill Shirley.
Yes, the studio forbade him to tell anyone, but he revealed the secret himself when the film was restored in the 90s.
MAGIC!
This song reminds me so much of how I felt when I first fell in love with a girl
the original man who can't be moved.
Aaaah, Freddy is such a creeper. But the cutest, sweetest doggon creeper in history! ♥
He was stalking women before Twilight made it cool!
I randomly met the most amazing and beautiful girl I think I've ever seen a few weeks ago, I know exactly how Freddie feels! It feels nice to unexpectedly fall in love, basically I'm here watching this because I wish I could sing this myself (albeit not in front of her house, that would just be weird lol).
I think this film should have got an Oscar instead of the sound of music
But, this film did win an Oscar, for Best Picture of 1964. "The Sound of Music" won the Best Picture Oscar of 1965.
this song is so absolutely yummy......it's classically romantic and beautiful:)
What a song , what a talent 👏🏻bravo
j'adore cette chanson normal si j'aime l'acteur!!!^^
Vic Damone, our Daddy+ had his long playing records!
Una de las canciones mas bellas del sXX!
Eliza was a fool to settle for Higgins.
Bill Shirley is also the voice of Prince Philip (singing & speaking) in the Disney animated masterpiece "Sleeping Beauty".
I didn't know that!! Sleepy Beauty and My Fair Lady are some of my favourite movies.
Thanks! :)
to me this is the one and only version … END OF SUPERB
Thank you for the info !!
Reading posts. I often questioned if the rendition of On The Street Where you Live was Jeremy Brett. I'm crushed - Not Jeremy.
Frankly. I'm a big fan of Jeremy Brett of Sherlock Holmes British TV. Bonus to realize he was Freddy in My Fair Lady.
One of my all time favorite Broadway songs/ballads of all time. Vic Damone has a beautiful recording of this song.
thanks for uploading this!!
Is Jeremy brett the actor who played Sherlock Holmes ?
Yes he was.
Yes! The very best Sherlock Holmes EVER! Wonderfully quirky.
+Bill Hicks Yes, and unfortunately he often took false credit for the vocalization, which is, in reality, dubbed by Bill Shirley.
+madamerotten , the studio told him not to tell anyone. He was actually very unhappy about it, and revealed the secret himself in the 90s, when the restored version of the film was released. The tried to also hush up the fact that Hepburn had been dubbed, but it was too obvious, and the cat got out of the bag.
Ironically, there was no need to dub him at all, as he had a great voice. Just search youtube for actual videos of him singing.
magdavogelsang ___Thanks for that. I can certainly believe that, based on some of the terrible stories I've heard about studio management. Why can't these people just give credit where it is due?
Thanks for uploading this. It's our school musical this year and auditions are next week. Gotta learn this song
Wow ❤
My favorite song from MFL. Only time I wish I was a boy, just so I could play this character!
I was so angry when Eliza didn't pick Freddy!
Glad you liked it. Thank you for watching.
The guy lighting the streetlamps must think he's fucking nuts...
the moment when you realise he is actually sherlock holmes
The moment you learned he turned down being James Bond because he was scared of being typecast...only to go on playing Holmes for years on end.
Another memorable BRIADWAY
it's sherlock holmes!!!!!....the original one, though the actual actor did have a nice voice...but they dubbed over it regardless, as did audrey hepburns, and natalie wood in west side story.
Yes
It was a different man (Bill Shirley) who actually did the singing? I am crushed. It was too good to be true, that Brett would be so handsome AND have such an engaging, brilliant voice. Brett sure did a wonderful job of lip syncing.
Ha, Brett had very engaging voice, it is true :)
She should have ended up with this guy, I was so pissed that she ended up with that arrogant, controlling, misogynistic asshole Henry Higgins and not this beautiful gem of a man who sang On the Street Where You Live and accepted her exactly as she was
The ending was obscure. She did return to Higgins but on a different level - certainly not romantic. She became "one of the guys", as it were.
@@3mdick plus if you read the essay written by George Bernard Shaw for the orignal play that Eliza gets married to Freddy and open a flower shop together.
@@rzionrnrzfm5925 oooh didn't know that. Good to know! I was referring to the movie.
