  • A dubbing experiment! Natalie sang most of this song quite well, with only a few shaky notes. Since she wanted to sing it so badly, and since Jackie Ward was such a good match, I felt they could have blended their voices as I have done here. Can you hear who is singing when? Scroll down to see the 11 words Jackie sings - but only after you first watch the clip! Also, I used the underscoring to create a tribute to Natalie.

    The Great Race movie would not be the same without the Sweetheart Tree song. It is brief but so touching and can bring tears to own's eyes. Of all the movies with Natalie Wood, I've loved this movie the best. This movie is also very special to me because I fell in love with my first sweetheart while watching this movie together for the first time. ❤

    I remember I was a kid, and my parents would take my sister and I to the drive-in movies occasionally. The Great Race was so hysterically funny for its time and Natalie was wonderful in it even in the mind of a 10-year-old (me).

    This was expertly done, taking Natalie's best parts, full of heart & vulnerability, & augmenting the song with Jackie Ward's parts, which match quite nicely. I watched to the end of the vocal section happily, then was caught off guard as the underscore continued, which I did not expect. The beautiful music there, complimented by the images of Natalie through the years, actually brought a tear to my eye. What a wonderful way to present this piece, thank you!

      That's so nice - thank you! I think they could have used this version in the film, don't you? I didn't use any new technology, so they could have done this in 1965 had they wanted to.

      @@lostvocals8 Yes, they could have used this sort of combination. Better than the awful auto-tuning or electronic manipulation employed so readily these days. To be clear, there's nothing wrong at all with Jackie Ward, of course, & I can understand considering dubbing if The Great Race was a genuine musical (with more Natalie Wood songs). But yes, I would have enjoyed this edit in the released version. At least have your take as an alternative!

    I think the producers made the right choice to dub over her voice. It's a much more better blend for this scene. Loved the instrumental that followed..
