There was literally a day like this in the summer of 1980. It was a Sunday. We had just gone to a concert with the Houston symphony at Jones Hall. The performance was Beethoven's Missa Solemnis. I was searching for the words and gestures to tell her good bye as we stood on her mother's porch steps. With each step backward I took, she stepped forward, as if she wanted to linger. The look on her face appeared expectant. A hug and a kiss seemed appropriate. I had known her for over a year and we had had so many conversations and done so many things together, I was falling in love with her, but I had not touched her. She had smiled and waved at me at church. We had several dates after that. We played tennis. She was musically talented. I enjoyed everything about her. Yet, there she was standing inches from me, accepting every compliment I gave her and looking at me as if she were waiting for a hug and a kiss. I wanted to kiss her and start planning a life with her but I didn't. We remained friends but time, distance, and other priorities intervened and we drifted apart. I've never forgotten that moment. This song reminds me of her.
Romance is what is missing in this day and age .This man is the epitome of class and style .When I was growing up I loved Nat King Cole. from the way he sang ,to the way he dressed .The total package.
I grew up in an orphanage in the 50's - 60's. Music was shunned as was the outside world. When I fortunately got back with my father in 1964, I recall hearing The Christmas Song - I couldn't stop crying listening to this incredible song and finally being home with my dad. I was hooked on Cole as was my dad.
whatsupwiththatyo...... For some reason, your comment really touched my heart. I pictured your young self, listening to the Christmas song, crying, and being with your dad. Hope you are experiencing a fulfilling life, filled with peace and hope. l
This gentleman passed away when I was in my early teens. He is still my favorite male singer of all times. He touches a chord within me. He can still make me weep.
One of Nat King Cole's final hits, and a beautiful one at that. He expresses the feeling of the song so effortlessly. This is all live from his BBC special, "An Evening With Nat King Cole".
You prolly dont care but if you're stoned like me atm you can watch pretty much all of the latest movies on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my gf during the lockdown xD
May 16th, 1963 Capitol Records 1750 N Vine St. Ralph Carmichael conducting the Orchestra with His arrangement along with Britain's Cliff Adams Singers in My Grandparents' old LA, Hollywood neighborhood
Makes you wanna cry every time you listen to it. I had my young daughter sing this with me when she was only 7 or 8 and that was only a few years ago. She will always remember these songs.
The man had talent, sex appeal, class, persona and style. Such a stiking difference from today's, marginally talened and unsphisticated hip-hop characters!
My favorite singer MR NAT KING COLE A VOICE AS SMOOTH AS SILK , he was the micheal angelo of singing he had everything charisma & that voice was just 1 of a kind that song he just sang THAT SUNDAY THAT SUMMER IS JUST BEAUTIFUL, R.I.P. NAT YOU ARE TRULY MISSED. 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎤🎤🎤🎤🎵🎵🎵🎵
Austin,you have excellent taste in music! Nat is the greatest male singer ever. Keely Smith is the best female singer,who we just lost on December 16,2017. Far too many people don't even know she exists. I didn't until 5 years ago! If you haven't heard of her,give Keely a fair hearing. Again,a great post here. Take care and ROLL TIDE! Richard Rhoden from Muscle Shoals,Alabama
This man mastered the art of commanding an audience. The second you see his face you are mesmerized in anticipation of his vocal abilities. His stage presence was second to none. In my humble opinion the greatest singer of my lifetime. This song sums up Mr. Cole with his smooth as silk delivery only makes one slide down in a comfortable chair, close your eyes and leave your cares & whoa for another time! Thanx Austin Casey, excellent taste my friend!!!
Oh my this transports me to 1976 .when I fell for my husband.he died 6 years ago but these memories are still so alive , and beautiful.no one could sing it better than nat.
This is such a lovely song which reminds me of a less stress-filled world without all the foolishness of facebook, twitter and the constant accessing of one's almighty phone. Nat Cole's performance and that of the singers is impeccable. No gizmos. Just pure music. The song is such a bittersweet depiction of summer love. It is to me, anyhow.
I just cannot imagine a more lovely melody than this one, about as unique as On Green Dolphin Street, and also as haunting and "heart gripping" as My Funny Valentine
I can't stop singing, humming, playing, or loving this song. Nat's version is very sincere and soothing; however, Natalie's version is classy and brings me nostalgia. Whether I listen to Nat's or Natalie's version this song gives all these aforementioned. This is music and talent at its best.
Same with my late Dad........he was a jazz aficionado. That’s all he listened to from a teenager until his passing at age 90. I’m still here with jazz & vocal standards at age 67. Nat is a timeless treasure.
Beautiful. However when I watch such clips with all the smiling, loving faces from both sides, I tend to think of how sad the reality really must have been for someone like Nat.
I fell in love on a Sunday afternoon (around 5PM) on an early summer Sunday a long time ago ....Please remember love is fleeting and no promises are ever kept.... Live well, love strong and be honest...I wish you all...the happiest of lives and loves......
So many people love this song because they associate it with a spouse or loved one. I was 11 or 12 when this song came out and I remember thinking "this is the song that describes what/how I'm going to feel about my true love." I found her, lost her and now this beautiful song makes me cry.
God bless you my friend. I'm very pleased all of you great people seem to be enjoying this as much as I do. I had doubts when I posted it that people would appreciate the beauty of it but I am very pleasantly surprised to see all your nice comments. This is truly an inspiring performance. Many thanks for enjoying! :-) Austin
My grandparents use to live on N Bronson Ave during this era 2 blocks from Capital Melrose at 5515 Melrose where several great vocalists recorded including Nat King Cole until April of 56 when the new Capital Tower opened it's doors at 1750 Vine "The House that Nat Built"
When this gold nugget was recorded by Nat at Capitol Records on Vine St in May of 63 with Ralph Carmichael's arrangement & Ralph conducting the orchestra & Britain's Cliff Adams singers harmonizing & singing in the background this was somewhat near the end of the great American songbook era & what a way to bookend this marvelous era of American popular music from roughly the mid-20s to mid-60s
Thanks for this GREAT post......True story .i was 13 when this "CLASSIC SONG" was released in 1963.... I had a school boy crush on the girl down the street, we were sitting on her porch this song came on her transistor radio she leaned over and kissed me on the cheek....I was in love for a week :) For the record we are so very thankful to you for giving us so much joy ,happiness this music is unique Nat Cole put the letter " S " on the word " SUPER STAR "
ONE OF THE GREATEST NAT KING COLE ITS A SHAME HE DIED SO YOUNG HE LEFT US WITH A GREAT BODY OF WORK IN THE SHORT TIME HE SANG R,I,P DEAR NAT YOU WERE THE BEST.
Live orchestra, live vocal group, and live Nat ~ 1 take, fully live, and flawless. This was a different era, and a different level of talent... thank God Nat lived in a day when they could record music, so we can still enjoy it today. My wife and I met on a Summer Sunday in 1985 (at the ripe old age of 16). Married 2 Summers later, and celebrating 37 years this Summer.
Nat Cole himself put it best when he commented about the lack of any major sponsors for his TV program, "The Nat King Cole Show," he said, "Sponsors don't have any guts. Madison Avenue is afraid of the dark." A quote from the book, Nat King Cole (A Personal and Professional Biography of a Man as Unforgettable as his Music) by James Haskins with Kathleen Benson.
Nat himself said the sponsors are afraid of the dark ! This song bumped the Beatles off the charts. Imagine two years later we lost him. So sad! PS : Cudos to the cliff Adams singers.
I was sixteen and in love and one Summer day my boyfriend was taking me to work and this song was playing on the radio and when it said, "go on kiss her" he kissed me." Always loved that song after that. Aw youth.
It would be the perfect moment. I'm sure it was a special moment. If ever I should get the chance during this song I'll make a life long memory. Goodness, The music of that time was all about love. God Bless.
The voices of the background singers are just incredible, full and beautiful-Mr Nat King Cole sings this song that always remains somewhere in the back of your heart ❤️ and mind...you can hear the song clearly even when it’s not playing.
Nat King Cole, was a piece of Black Smooth Velvet! You could not find a kinder and loving man, for his family! Smooth, I tell you. Wonderful Man. His music is, fantastic!
Thank you.. I have enjoyed this song for years and it's so nice to actually see Nat King Cole sing it. It is quite frightening to realize how many years have passed, my grandparents had all his albums and sadly he passed away in 1965. His music has brought joy to countless people for years.
By Delight, I just love this song. I love the sound of Nat Cole’s voice and the way he sings to the audience. A very elegant and talented man, gone too soon. Sing in Heaven, Sing to God, Mr. Cole.
For years I have taken a moment to listen to this song. Whether in the office, on the iPod/iPad, on flight. It's beautiful. That special moment with that special love.
I first met my wife to be on Sunday, August 2, 1947. Four months later we married and during our 68 years together, this was "our song" and still chokes me up today after 3 years she's been gone. She still smiles for me that way, that Sunday, that summer of years ago.
such an ibeautiful intense nostalgic song...hard to listen to without cracking
Live and, just beautiful !
Live!! Voices!
Nat´s Great voice is indeed a joy to listen, and this song is one of those that are really worth to listen.
This is me my wife's song a dedicated to her today she's in the hospital in ICU incubated on a breathing machine I love you
I hope she's okay now?
Sincerely hope a year later, your wife is home and well❤
Ours, too
So sorry praying for her lost my husband almost 3 yrs ago miss him every day so I do know your pain
❤

WHY didn't you kiss her?🤦🤷
@@CindyLindsey-yy6dh I respected her so highly, I thought I would be presumptuous if I thought I had the liberty to be that intimate with her.
@@CindyLindsey-yy6dhBecause he was a gentleman 😊
Johnny Mathis once said, "The thing about Nat is, he waits, and then he sings. Then he waits, and then he sings." Couldn't put it better.
P p
Love this.
Love Nat and Johnny
That is too adorable
Exactly. So well put!
Just brilliant, singer,, backup, arrangement, song
I have just found this song taking care of a 90 year old client. I’m completely smitten ❤❤❤
Romance is what is missing in this day and age .This man is the epitome of class and style .When I was growing up I loved Nat King Cole. from the way he sang ,to the way he dressed .The total package.
Nobody has a voice as pure as Nat he is an angel🥰
A sure good statement
THEM brought me here closing song in ep 9 :)
Ditto!!!
Acabei de ver este episódio e estou aqui linda música
Beautiful music
I grew up in an orphanage in the 50's - 60's. Music was shunned as was the outside world.

For some reason, your

my heart. I pictured your
young self, listening to
the Christmas song,
crying, and being with
your dad. Hope you are
experiencing a fulfilling
life, filled with peace and
hope.
l
Glad that you got back with your dad. 🙏
One of The most beautiful songs ever written and sung by one the most amazing artists of all time , Mr Nat King Cole 💕💕🎶🎶
Yes!
This gentleman passed away when I was in my early teens. He is still my favorite male singer of all times. He touches a chord within me. He can still make me weep.
An angel 😇 definitely
Natalie's rendition is equally as tender.
I miss him
One of Nat King Cole's final hits, and a beautiful one at that. He expresses the feeling of the song so effortlessly. This is all live from his BBC special, "An Evening With Nat King Cole".
No one did it better!
No lip synching, no auto tune, just real talent. Love you, Nat ❤
nat is a gem, but this video is playback just to let you know
You prolly dont care but if you're stoned like me atm you can watch pretty much all of the latest movies on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my gf during the lockdown xD
@Finley Saint definitely, I've been watching on Instaflixxer for since december myself =)

YEP
Who's here from the closing song in Episode 9 of THEM?
That transition from the old town to the suburbs gave me goosebumps
🤚🏾
I am really born in the wrong era. This song makes my heart melt and gave me some tears which I cannot explain.
Me, too....
I know EXACTLY how you feel!
I was born 30-50 years too late. 😞
It doesn't matter when you were born...you and this found each other, and you can play it as often as you want.
Nat is super human if your heart 💔 is not pulled there's something irregular
Never a sensational seeker this makes him so sensationalkit dawn's upon me one as brilliant must still appear
I really don't see how it EVER gets better than this. Thanks so much for sharing!
Our vocabulary is not aduqout enough to render the highest adoration to this sensation
13 crazy people with thumb's down. I can not understand it. This is a masterpiece
Mary Lynn Johnson-Kerker 13 people who have no souls. From NKC himself to background. vocals, this song is indeed a masterpiece
Those people are idiots. They're either bigots, tone deaf or children who don't and can't imagine what Real music sounds like. Just ignore them.
Because those people don't know what the real music is...
Probably descendants of the racists who complained to the network when he was given a television show.
Insanely jealous because they don't what it takes to be a A-1singer.
I can not look at him and hear hime sing without smiling from ear to ear and a tear in my eye. Amazing.
Beautiful~
Amazing talent!
This is so beautiful, it made me cry. Yes, chillun', this is what television used to be like: real talent, live music.
that was a golden age for talent on free tv!
This made me cry too. I miss those days.
Makes you wanna cry every time you listen to it. I had my young daughter sing this with me when she was only 7 or 8 and that was only a few years ago. She will always remember these songs.
You so right, I got the same feeling
Yes! Voices class beauty
Man oh man nat you were the best a voice of silk & an awesome human being, R.I P. NAT YOU ARE TRULY MISSED EVERYDAY GOD BLESS YOUR SOUL.
The man had talent, sex appeal, class, persona and style. Such a stiking difference from today's, marginally talened and unsphisticated hip-hop characters!
Every once in awhile, something is done so well it becomes the standard, Nat KIng Cole did that with this song and many others. A life well lived!
My favorite singer MR NAT KING COLE A VOICE AS SMOOTH AS SILK , he was the micheal angelo of singing he had everything charisma & that voice was just 1 of a kind that song he just sang THAT SUNDAY THAT SUMMER IS JUST BEAUTIFUL, R.I.P. NAT YOU ARE TRULY MISSED. 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎤🎤🎤🎤🎵🎵🎵🎵
so very dear to me.
When people were real.
Well, something definitely wrong with people today!! :(
I swear Nat King Cole is one of the few artists who can sing this old-time music but it doesn't seem old.
The Chorus is non other than the Cliff Adams Singers. They were the best in the business in my opinion.
Austin,you have excellent taste in music! Nat is the greatest male singer ever. Keely Smith is the best female singer,who we just lost on December 16,2017.

You nailed it
Extraordinary commentary
All that I can say is wow😮
Happy birthday, Mr. Nat King Cole. You were an inspiration to many. My favorite song.
Still love my Idol of my childhood !
Nat King Cole has the best male singing voice I have ever heard.. A song like this adds fuel to my conviction. Simply and silky splendid!
A great masterpiece
Good men are born great men are superb they neither was or were but would always be.
Your description of this entity is refined very amazing
I or no else can give a true description of Nat just listen and be mesmerized
The background vocals are magical! Nat's voice really fills the room with bliss!!
Oh my this transports me to 1976 .when I fell for my husband.he died 6 years ago but these memories are still so alive , and beautiful.no one could sing it better than nat.
An absolutely incredibly B E A U T I F U L song , brilliantly sung by Nat King Cole.
Timeless beauty , that's for sure......thanks !!
BEAUTIFUL!
@@otiliasuelydossantos9244 Huy
Doesn't it just send you over the edge
There has been no other voice like that of Nat King Cole's. Love it!
Apart from Brook Benton.
Nat had an incredibly peaceful and gentle spirit one finds very rare these days...😮
This post should be called ‘That Voice, That Phrasing’
ya he was the best at this art.
This is such a lovely song which reminds me of a less stress-filled world without all the foolishness of facebook, twitter and the constant accessing of one's almighty phone. Nat Cole's performance and that of the singers is impeccable. No gizmos. Just pure music. The song is such a bittersweet depiction of summer love. It is to me, anyhow.
+Brian O'Neill well said.
Beautiful.....it is so soothing and gives me a peaceful feeling.
+Brian O'Neill that is a great observation. What you are witnessing is real, not phony, talent. Be safe.
Kerryman true much better times.
I just cannot imagine a more lovely melody than this one, about as unique as On Green Dolphin Street, and also as haunting and "heart gripping" as My Funny Valentine
Que maravilha!!!
Those backup singers are awesome!
I timeless iconic classic
Revisiting this unforgettable song in 2023
Nat king Cole was a king

This is one of my favorite songs, if not my favorite by this amazing artist!
My dad got me into Nat King Cole, miss u dad, thx for your great taste in music.
Great taste,indeed...props to you and your Dad
Same with my late Dad........he was a jazz aficionado. That’s all he listened to from a teenager until his passing at age 90. I’m still here with jazz & vocal standards at age 67. Nat is a timeless treasure.
Beautuful song, beautiful voice, beautiful man. What a voice
Bullseye Nat,bullseye 😉👍🏾
Beautiful. However when I watch such clips with all the smiling, loving faces from both sides, I tend to think of how sad the reality really must have been for someone like Nat.

I tell ya....I've fallen I in love with song 57 yrs later
I heard it in the movie "Them" that's out right now 04 2021
My Mums favorite song❤
Perfect. 63 people who I guess feel rap is better than this
It just doesn't get any better than Nat "King" Cole!!!
hmv his masters voice there will never be a NAT KING COLE
Great song; Fab singer; R.I.P. Nat.
I never get tired of listening to that song or watch the video.
Such an elegant man with his deep velvet voice. Wish he were still here to warm the room and our hearts.
That Sunday, That Summer, That SINGER!!! The great Nat King Cole.... Sing it Nat!
So many people love this song because they associate it with a spouse or loved one. I was 11 or 12 when this song came out and I remember thinking "this is the song that describes what/how I'm going to feel about my true love." I found her, lost her and now this beautiful song makes me cry.
That’s so sad and beautiful at the same time. You’ve lived and loved.
Someday, you will sing that beautiful song to your new love by yourself my friend.
@@Amit-781 I appreciate the thought, but at 71 years old, I doubt that is going to happen
and now this song makes us long for those days and we can't help but cry.
I echo every single word of your post(s).

Mr nat king Cole was 1 of my favorite singers of all time, I call him the VOICE OF SILK because he was so smooth at singing God bless him.
ONE OF THE GREATEST NAT KING COLE ITS A SHAME HE DIED SO YOUNG HE LEFT US WITH A GREAT BODY OF WORK IN THE SHORT TIME HE SANG R,I,P DEAR NAT YOU WERE THE BEST.
There never will be another Nat... simply gives me cold chills

My favorite of his songs.
beautiful. reminds me of my childhood when my dad and mom would listen to music like this in the 60's. miss the time and miss my mom & dad :(
Me, too. Driving home from church... Radio on in the summertime... Fell in love with this song even then.
Superb and classy, nothing like the Thug singers of today. Miss you Nat.
It's sad how his variety show folded due to lack of sponsors - a real crime.
Their loss!
@@lordcron Everyone's loss

Just bought a Nat King Cole CD today...and THIS song is in it!
I LOVE THAT SONG!!!

A true master of vocal and delivery.
A stunning performance with no engineering wizardry needed.
Pure majesty!
Nat was such a gorgeous man and had such a gorgeous voice, if only he were still with us now
pure nat. no lip sinc! not back then. just lovely. the way it used to be. ah, to live back then!
Thank you.. I have enjoyed this song for years and it's so nice to actually see Nat King Cole sing it. It is quite frightening to realize how many years have passed, my grandparents had all his albums and sadly he passed away in 1965. His music has brought joy to countless people for years.

What a beautful choir.. It carries all the magic and sparkle of that time.. Not to forget the old Disney movies soundtracks
For years I have taken a moment to listen to this song. Whether in the office, on the iPod/iPad, on flight. It's beautiful. That special moment with that special love.
What a pity this BBC show has not been repeated , I can't seem to get a DVD of it either.
Nat's best recording with an outstanding video to match. Had much more to offer but died at 47.
I first met my wife to be on Sunday, August 2, 1947. Four months later we married and during our 68 years together, this was "our song" and still chokes me up today after 3 years she's been gone. She still smiles for me that way, that Sunday, that summer of years ago.
