And that, ladies and gentlemen, is what is called "entertainment." Never to be confused with the trash that is given that label today. The greats are gone and those of us lucky enough to have been around to enjoy them ....our lives were enhanced and were we ever lucky. Thanks to YT for reviving these gems.
THIS is singing! No vocal gymnastics! No electronic trickery! And, the songs are wonderful! This is why the WWII generation and Baby Boomers grieve about the state of music. These people kept their glorious voices for decades, and you can see how they are beloved. Bieber and others, especially with their antics, will be forgotten, and people still will listen to Doris, Perry, Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra and others. It's been about midway into the Nineties that music lost its way. What happened?!
They broke the mold with these two great singers. The bodies of work by Perry and Doris should be required study by all music universities and vocal students.
I was born in 1956 so I really did grow up with this because my parents had it playing on our Hi-Fi stereo! Perry was a dreamy looking man. And Doris had a way about her that girls wanted to emulate. RIP Both of you. I know you are singing wherever you are.
Two talented beautiful people with a gold plated characters, both are gone now but they are remembered here on You Tube for those of us who appreciated their memory and entertainment for so many years.
4:15 I would make googly eyes at him, too, if I was singing with him; he was always so terribly handsome and a wonderful talented gentleman!! RIP Doris & Perry.
Doris Day and Perry Como were very good friends with each other in real life.....how I wish she had met a man like Perry who would've brought her a lifetime of love, warmth and security that she desired so much (psssst….Doris & Perry would've made a lovely couple in another day and time). :)
Watching videos such as this make me happy and sad at the same time...so great to see such talent, poise, and effortless class. But it's also sad when you think about what passes for talent and celebrity today.
I was there while they were rehearsing for this show. I'm a fan of both....especially him. He was such a cutie and really nice. Even in the rehearsal hall, she was flirty with him.
I love the way people "back in the day" could show affection by putting a hand on someone's shoulder, or an arm around the other person, or holding hands, or hugging WITHOUT it being considered assault or inappropriate. That's the world I grew up in, and I loved it. Today sucks!!!
What a beautiful medley, so complex and interesting yet Doris and Perry sailed through it as if it were child's play. Two total pros from a bygone era when the level of professionalism and musicianship vastly exceeded anything to be seen today
I remember well, that moonlit night we fell. Her eyes, her thighs, her lips, her sighs. It was love at first sight and we loved with all our might. Miss you my darling Doris.
Doris & Perry....the class of Hollywood! I loved them both and am so glad and fortunate I had the opportunity to meet them (Doris & my mom -- an actress -- were friends through Maureen O'Hara way back in the day). Both ultimately left Hollywood and when they did, Hollywood was the much poorer and dimmer for it. Gosh, I miss those days.
Perry met his future wife when they were about 14 or 15. It was the first date and last for each of them. Although he was a barber his wife encouraged him to sing and leave Canonsburg, Pa. because she knew how talented he was.
Sherron Teal yes, I agree. She actually started her career with singing and then in 1948 she became an actress in her first movie, Romance on the High Seas... which I absolutely adore. My friends think I’m strange that my "role model" is Doris Day and I’m 15 haha. Which is kind of interesting but I love older movies and songs so much. They remind me of my granny. 💖
She began her singing career in Les Brown's Orchestral early 40's ..I began collecting her recording in all modes..seen her movies many times over her television show I recorded..to this day Doris Day memorabilia is heard and seen..Yes Sherronteal Doris Day could sing...Check her listings of movies this talented wonder sang and acted.
Great, inspired duet covers! Their voices maturer than in the '40s, yet they bring more experience and artistic sophistication to their beautifully emoted vocalizings.
Bless their hearts -- I wish they were still performing. We lost Perry in 2001 at age 88, but the lovely Doris is still with us! She turned 95, 2 weeks ago today. Both such class all the way. So grateful we still have their music and can still see them thanks to people like you, Rae Edwards, who posted this for our enjoyment! Thank you!
Beautiful singing by two masters of their craft. Doris is still a gorgeous woman & still has the sultry voice. Perry lived a great & long life. May he RIP. I purchased Doris' DVD of her show. Wonderful & memorable special. Great keepsake. Thx for posting but buy the DVD if you can. You won't be disappointed.
man....when can we ever have talents like these?real ones...nice voice..no enhancement audio equipments needed...just pure talent...TALENT..(calling all current wannabes..no offense..)
Thanks Johninis. This brillaince can never be watched and listened to enough. Let it repeat and repeat for as long as there is time. It is what makes life so worthwhile. Bravo!
She was certainly a shameless flirt and his wife always watched his shows. She had a phobia about flying as a result would not go out to the coast. As was printed Doris Day makes for goo goo eyes at Perry Como. He was a good Roman Catholic and a faithful Husband. She was married 3 times and had an affair with Rock Hudson.
@@louiseobrien4607 she never had an affair with rock. Rock was a closeted gay man at that time. It would of been a career kill to come out. I often wonder. If he ever confided in Doris about his sexuality. And what is a good roman catholic. After the predictor priest scandals it's hard to put those three words together. I'm sorry I've just lost faith in organized religion. And I was raised Catholic.
@@louiseobrien4607 none of the major religions accept adultery, not just Catholicism. Look at Spencer Tracy - he repeatedly slept with Katharine Hepburn, but wouldn’t get a divorce partially due to his Catholicism. Is that ok? I thought Rock was gay. How do you know they had an affair?
i noticed that too. i have never, never seen or heard a request to kiss. Perry is caught off guard and laughs, then reluctuntly kisses her. charming & romantic... thats these two
Beautiful, classy, & I miss this type of entertainment....BRING IT BACK....maybe first, you need to find the talent....that will take some doing.........
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is what is called "entertainment." Never to be confused with the trash that is given that label today. The greats are gone and those of us lucky enough to have been around to enjoy them ....our lives were enhanced and were we ever lucky. Thanks to YT for reviving these gems.
You look at Doris Day, and she looks fantastic, and then she starts to sing and her voice sounds just as good as she looks...Amazing...
The world needs more class like this.
THIS is singing! No vocal gymnastics! No electronic trickery! And, the songs are wonderful! This is why the WWII generation and Baby Boomers grieve about the state of music.

"Attractive, talented, well-groomed entertainers singing sweet melodies." Is it over forever? I don' want to believe it!
Perry and Doris in the 70s. They don't come any better...
We know Doris was adorable but, my gosh, Perry was gorgeous ! Very very handsome! They made an adorably beautiful couple !
Thanks Perry and Doris for your great performances and wonderful personalities. RIP both of you.
This is so beautiful, Doris was so stunningly beautiful with a soft magical voice. May she rest in peace in the arms of Jesus.
Amen! 💕
TheMonarchgroup +
What a wonderful clip!! I loved Doris forever. She's beautiful inside and out. And Perry is a first class act. My have we have fallen in this country.
Perry Como was a nice looking man.
i lovedddd himmmmm
I wonder if Doris Day knows how many "wonderful memories" she has given us. She and Perry made quite a pair!
Wow what talent what smooth voices blended so well together. No talent like this today
Two talented beautiful people with a gold plated characters, both are gone now but they are remembered here on You Tube for those of us who appreciated their memory and entertainment for so many years.
My oh my, who WOULDN'T make eyes at Perry Como? What a dreamboat!
I always considered Perry Como one of the smoothest singing voices of all time and it didn't get much better than Doris Day 👍
Can you imagine Perry Como and Doris Day as a couple? Talk about stunning!
Ohhh yeahh !! Real artist, real voices!
Two beautiful performers with voices to match.
Perry has the most beautiful profile I have ever seen; stunning man !
Sigh......🥰
Now this is Natural voicing - what classic perfection>
If our society was exposed to this type of entertainment and environment, can you imagine how different it would be. I love you Doris!
Doris Day was quite a looker.
oh yeah.
i saw them a lot of time...i love this cuple..so nice .love fir ever.
I think she was just acting the part. She was a great actress. Didn't need any lessons and she was never afraid.Great lady and Humanitarian.
I loved watching them sing and interact together...Sigh...❤ They are both such sweet people..❤
The good ol' days..❤❤❤
Gosh, two of the all time greatest singers. I miss those days of innocence.
Innocence? The only innocent one was Perry. Doris was a hussy. He look uncomfortable. And then at the end, she had to say "kiss me.".
This duet by these two great artists is simply ¡FANTASTIC!
4:15 I would make googly eyes at him, too, if I was singing with him; he was always so terribly handsome and a wonderful talented gentleman!! RIP Doris & Perry.
two legendary singers
Beautiful woman plus handsome man both with talent. Those were the days!
Doris Day and Perry Como were very good friends with each other in real life.....how I wish she had met a man like Perry who would've brought her a lifetime of love, warmth and security that she desired so much (psssst….Doris & Perry would've made a lovely couple in another day and time). :)
I have never seen Doris look so gorgeous!!
If there's a place called heaven these 2 are top of the bill !!! And I want a front row seat !!! Absolutely fabulous x
Doris Day is alive and well. Not quite ready for heaven!
Watching videos such as this make me happy and sad at the same time...so great to see such talent, poise, and effortless class. But it's also sad when you think about what passes for talent and celebrity today.
I hear ya dash.I was born in 1960. Grew up watching real tv as well.Real Talent
I was there while they were rehearsing for this show. I'm a fan of both....especially him. He was such a cutie and really nice. Even in the rehearsal hall, she was flirty with him.
Bobbie that was neat you were there!!!! Wow what a cool thing for you to be there!!
I love the way people "back in the day" could show affection by putting a hand on someone's shoulder, or an arm around the other person, or holding hands, or hugging WITHOUT it being considered assault or inappropriate. That's the world I grew up in, and I loved it. Today sucks!!!
Two of the greatest ever stars together. They make it look so easy. Superb.
What a beautiful medley, so complex and interesting yet Doris and Perry sailed through it as if it were child's play. Two total pros from a bygone era when the level of professionalism and musicianship vastly exceeded anything to be seen today
Class...pure class...
Just loved her voice and her movies.
I see nothing but chemistry-really awesome duet. Great singers can be just great singers.
Would have been the perfect dictionary picture of attractiveness and talent. They were beautiful together. RIP in your rejoining.
Who remembers of Doris Day? I remembered today with great joy crying of emotion again.
She's not dead!
She never meant it to come across that way. Doris has been retired now for many many years but hasnt appeared on tv or anything since the 1980s
This world needs more Doris Day!
Fabulous sound from 2 great singers.
I just love this video with Doris and Perry Como singing together. Its so romantic
I wish I lived in that era SO BADLY!
I was a child, it was a glorious time.
@@nain1638 unless you were black.
I remember well, that moonlit night we fell. Her eyes, her thighs, her lips, her sighs. It was love at first sight and we loved with all our might. Miss you my darling Doris.
What a special treat this was! Thank you for this wonderful experience of pure entertainment.
this was music--------- Young People today have BEEN CHEATED BUYING INTO THE STUFF THEY CALL MUSIC TODAY!!!
I miss you Doris Day 😥💕
Ruhe in Frieden ⚘⚘⚘
Doris & Perry....the class of Hollywood!

Both ultimately left Hollywood and when they did, Hollywood was the much poorer and dimmer for it. Gosh, I miss those days.
He was truly Mr. Relaxation... as the guys from Saturday night live, used to call him. He was marvelous. Salute.
Oh! Where are the beautiful singers today? I am glad I was around when they were entertaining us. We were so lucky. We only had the Best of the Best.
Perry met his future wife when they were about 14 or 15. It was the first date and last for each of them. Although he was a barber his wife encouraged him to sing and leave Canonsburg, Pa. because she knew how talented he was.
I never knew Doris Day could sing I love this because it brings back happier less chaotic times then today..
Sherron Teal yes, I agree. She actually started her career with singing and then in 1948 she became an actress in her first movie, Romance on the High Seas... which I absolutely adore.

My favorite male singer is Perry Como, and my favorite singer altogether is Doris Day! What's not to LOVE?
what great memories this brings back. i feel sorry for those who can't appreciate this.
i always loved these two. great voices & great people.
What a class-act! We shouldn't neglect to mention Perry's long-time arranger and conductor Nick Perito. He's the one at the piano. Great arranger.
Two stunning artists just great looking and listing to them
Two of my favorite people.
She is absolutely stunningly beautiful !!
Just lovely💞💓💕
Two sweet beautiful people with voices to match
I love both of them so much! Perry is such a fox, but very shy. He seemed afraid to look at Doris. :-)))
patita sandiego, He does seem uncomfortable . They sound great though.
Two really naturally beautiful and talented people. Look at his perfect profile.
Let the clouds go by Jenny
Fantastic really enjoyed this I thought he was a gorgeous looking man Doris is gorgeous too
Pure class! Sadly no longer available.
I like them. simply beautiful.
This is absolutely terrific...
Great, inspired duet covers! Their voices maturer than in the '40s, yet they bring more experience and artistic sophistication to their beautifully emoted vocalizings.
Perry,..one of my mom's favorite singers.
There was a chemistry.
Miss his Christmas specials
Bless their hearts -- I wish they were still performing. We lost Perry in 2001 at age 88, but the lovely Doris is still with us! She turned 95, 2 weeks ago today. Both such class all the way. So grateful we still have their music and can still see them thanks to people like you, Rae Edwards, who posted this for our enjoyment! Thank you!

"Quiet Nights" such a romantic song, sweet, I didn't know this song goes back decades, it is a classical.

Thanks Johninis.
This brillaince can never be watched and listened to enough.
Let it repeat and repeat for as long as there is time.
It is what makes life so worthwhile.
Bravo!
Acting or not she was a shameless flirt And so good at it. She knew she was making him uncomfortable and she loved it! She was so adorable here.

good stuff from two of the masters of the craft.
Thank you for this video enjoying watching and listening Oldies from all popular singers🌹❤👍🎶🎤
so great to see such talent ,,,,
Spellbinding!!!! for me to watch these two extremely talented performers
As far as I know, this was the only time they performed together. But, that was enough. This one appearance together was timeless.
Two of the ultimate singing voices Perry and Doris..How Beautiful!

Talented duo.
Doris and Perry melt me........
