I first heard Melody Gardot (performing “Mira”) aboard an AirFrance flight leaving Paris for New York following a romantic Christmas week in the city. I couldn’t get over her voice, and am taken by the soft, gentle profile of her rich tone and lush arrangements. Who’s to guess she isn’t French (with a surname like Gardot and that “French” voice), but American like me. I think I’m in love. Thank you, cher Melody. You’re an inspiration!
How cool is that! Reminds me of standing in front of Las Vegas Bellagio's night time water show as they played Frank Sinatra's "Luck be a lady tonight."
She is so fabulous. There is a wonderful documentary called "The Queens of Jazz", which 1 can enjoy and appreciate on UA-cam. In this doc Melody talks about Nina Simone, and it's a joy to watch. She is incredibly unique. Cheers Melody.
Welcome and settle in. Definitely one of the most elegant voices of this generation and really has feeling when she sings without belting to hit the climax. Her albums progressively show maturation and growth both lyrically and musically to the point that "Baby, I'm a Fool", as beautiful as it is, becomes less and less of a standout track.
I just discovered Melody Gardot's music as well while listening to a Sting song feat Meoldy. Love her voice !!! It's a classic !!! Thank God for UA-cam suggestions
I love this song. I love Melody Gardot. Her voice goes straight to the heart, taking us places we've never been. Our heart's longing for true love can make fools of us. But in the end we're the better for jumping in. Most are too afraid to be a fool. Even the Deities on Mt. Olympus would run when Eros came around with his bow and arrows. Who cares to truly love, for richer or poorer, in sickness or in health, and dance to the end of love?
I am a sucker for female vocalists, especially one with a voice like the finest cream sherry being poured softly and slowly through velvet! That was superb! Thank you!!!
A perfect companion song for a lonely me still this winter before my 50 and empty life. This is the one I told you I suspected to become. Simply beautiful.
Just caught this lady last night on BBC 4's 'Divas of Jazz' - immediately captured by THAT voice !!. Album ordered and it's arrival just cannot come quick enough - SHE is something else !!!!!!!!!
I would love to know the jealous humans who could dislike this lovely song and the story behind this beautiful lady. Get a life humans! I can’t wait for more music from this phenomenal artist!
There are times I listen to this song over and over, listening heals the pain in my heart, because we have to be be fools to fall in love, yet we do. Her voice is so smooth and always seems to evoke that feeling of sleepy laziness with your significant other in the early morning when you contemplate sleeping in, snuggling, or just tumbling in the sheets.
I just heard this on the radio, and was completely enchanted by her voice. I had to look her up, make sure I got the spelling right. I need to find more of her work - that voice is absolutely timeless. It's possibly the most beautiful voice I've ever heard in my life. It's in the genre of Judy Garland and Julie Andrews, but I dare say it's better. Melody's voice has a spirit to it which elevates the tone and tugs at the heart strings.
As someone else said, usually I'm not a heavy consumer of this style of music, but there's magic in her voice, in the neo-retro video and in her amazing story of recovery and transcendence. If I hear nothing else from this artist (although I'm about to go searching), I am absolutely satisfied. This is stone cold wonderful! Thank you, Melody, you've made my evening.
I had heard this many times before and the melody just popped into my head today and it took me a while to find this masterpiece again but by god was it worth it.what an amazing song and an even more amazing woman.
Great voice. I like how she chooses music the suits her voice, too many singers try to force themselves into genres that don’t complement their natural talent.
Thus is Melody Gardot at her quintessential finest. But you must catch one of her live performanoes on UA-cam when she livens it up with a wonderfully wild Brazilian rhythm aya carrumba beat. This suits her perfectly, as well. Enjoy!

My new favorite song! Vintage! I love Melody' voice lyrics and this video...LOVE Reigns supreme! the strings! the guitar! Baby, I'm a Fool....!!! THANK YOU BEAUTIFUL MELODY! BLESSINGS TO YOU! I PRAY FOR YOU OFTEN!!! COURAGE HAS A PHOTO OF YOU NEXT TO IT IN THE ENCYCLOPEDIA/DICTIONARY. XXOO
I love you Melody I know what it feels like to have awful pain in your body while you are still very connected to Source and the Universe It doesn't get any better than this...Kate Bush, Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan...and Melody Gardot
Such a beautiful version of this song. The first time I heard it on JazzFM, I searched her out and bought that album. Every song is a winner, she has a very appealing style...for me. (the video seems a little superfluous but then again I'm old school :))
I felt the same way when I discovered her when this album CAME OUT!! 💕💜 I remember it so clearly, I was about 11 years old and it doesn't really need anymore words - *I was obviously in love with her from the beginning!* Few years ago I played her version of Somewhere Over The Rainbow on my dear grandpa's funeral, he and me were jazz-lovers 🥰
She embodies grace, talent but also tremendous courage . My husband offered me her album entitled Sunset in the Blue and I listen to it twice a day . My music therapy thanks to Melody.
Melody, I will forever remember your concert at Madrid' s Sabatini Gardens, back in 2010. Spain had just won the football World Cup, and their celebration, some hundred meters away, kept on bothered us the whole gig. I felt ashamed, I must confess. Nonetheless, your classy performance won over that noise. I Hope you come back to Spain soon. Lots of love, David 💚
Once I said to myself that there would not come a jazz record into my house...until I discovered Melody Gardot ofc, she is gorgeous and have a voice of gold, have seen her live too, in Stavanger , Norway
I love Melody Gardot's voice and I especially love the song , Baby I'm a fool. I hadn't known about her bike accident. I hadnt learned about her life at all and now I'm going to see what I can learn in addition to what has been shared by this poster. Thank you.
One of my absolute favorite female vocalists.Google her biography.She overcame alot now she shines.I just wish she would your the U.S.She's very popular in Europe.I would love to see her live.
It was a treat for the ears when it can out in 2009 it's a treat for the ears now and in 10,20,or 50 years from now it will be wonderful to listen to .....
smooth as silk. sweetness, light, beauty, it's pure poetry and love. who's NOT in love? what kind of stone do you have for a heart if you are not moved to a higher love?
some people are born with no taste at all. this iss not even my fav kind of music but i know genius and true talent when i see and hear it. She is fantastic.
As a pro musician my entire life I am utterly filled with joy to call myself an 'accidental fan'! This beautiful girl is the entire package. Can't stop listening ...absolutely stunning. 💝
How she’s not as big as Adele or Winehouse I have no idea. Her voice is simply magical.
That's because she's a "jazz" singer. The others that you mentioned are pop singers designed for mass appeal!!!!!.
She is so underated
@@Jil8840 Adele yes, but Amy was jazz through and through!
@@anneloughlin2480 mainstream pop singers.
@@anneloughlin2480 Amy wasn't jazz singuer, she played soul-pop
Her Voice is Angelic! Timeless perfection. She is one of the Greatest singers of our Generation!
Reminds me of the gentle music of movie soundtracks of the 1960s. Simply WONERERFUL!
Why didn't I know about her before this moment. I am in love again. OMG. This woman is great. The world needs to know more about her.

I would love to hear Melody Gardot sing for the next 007/James Bond movie.
That would work!!!!
Great Idea!
Sade first!
Or as a Bondgirl?
Same
Her voice sounds so gentle and beautiful. It's so soothing. Typically I don't listen to this genre of music but her voice is just so beautiful.
Toi t'es française ^^
+Marlene Vasquez Agreed :)
its gonna sound silly but..when i hear her sing the word "creamy" pops up in my head "soft and creamy". lol does it make sense at all?
mmmm yes :) Yummy Lol the other word for me is intoxicating :)
Gustav Barnard omg That's EXACTLY the word!!! I always think this, her voice is milky/creamy/smooth
Again and again I come back to this beautiful song, as her voice caresses my soul.
This is too beautiful. HER VOICE IS LITERALLY LIQUID ✨GOLD✨
I'm so glad I recently discovered Melody Gardot's music

Love this woman's music. Real uplifting and timeless.
Same here!
That's cause yall didn't pay attention to late night vh1 music 😌😁
me too lovely this new voice and new discovered music Melody mystic songer can you know C'est Magnifique from too Melody gardot?
Livanelinin kardeşimin hikayesinden gelen kimse yok mu ya ben kitaplarda gördüğüm her şarkıcıyı dinlerim ayrı Bi havası olur hep.
Bencede dostum
:) aynı şekilde
Oradan gelmedim ama çok hoş şarkı
Bir elimde Kardeşimin Hikayesi bir elimde telefon ile sarkinin bitmesini bekliyorum. :p
@@kuromibabyy :"( aynı duyguları şu an yaşıyorum.
phoebe said she listened to this to understand daphne and simon dynamic in bridgerton. glad it brought me here because wow, what a talent 🥺❤
A young woman with an old soul. Wow, I love her voice! More, please!
1:47 she’s incredible! She does whatever she wants with that fabulous voice of hers
2.30 to 2.46 are the best seconds of music I've ever known
It is hard to tell that she is only 26 years old, she is so mature and sophisticated!
She inspires me on so many levels.
When I lister to this song, I feel as light as a feather, flying free, full of love, thank you Melody👍🙏❤😘

As a long time musician and song writer, I have put Melody on the shelf I have with Elvis, The Beatles and Jimi Hendrix.
I am a sucker for female vocalists, especially one with a voice like the finest cream sherry being poured softly and slowly through velvet! That was superb!
Thank you!!!
Amazing voice !!
I’m completly in love with “ baby i’m a fool’s ’video and song “.. so delicated and relaxing.. all wrapped with an extraordinary sensibility ❤️
She represents HOPE to me .. After everything happened to her she still stunning .. All the best Melody ❤🌷
Melody Gardot is like listening to a motion picture with perhaps a little of your past in it in the heart of Emotions.
Nice you can finally meet me, Melody. Where have I been hiding? You are spectacular!
My 6 year-old is absolutely in love with her music, especially this song!!
There's such an elegance to these lyrics
there's such an elegance to your face
There's such an elegance to both of you.
Elegance abounds, coz I am, and so are you Andres . . . . it's catching . . . :-)
Sven is
by far one of the best female voices today. she's so underrated it's sad...

how beautiful, far away, inaccessible ❤
just found this from sammy copleys cover. love the sing so much and i'd consider it a modern jazz classic
This is when I meet Melody for the first time on UA-cam and it was love ever since !!!!!!!
Wonderful, beautiful, and straight from the heart! Love you Melody!

If I had listened to this 8 years ago it could have saved me a LOT of heartbreak!
I will sing it beside "Couple More Years" at my next gig!

Jazz takes a minute to get into your veins, but all it takes is a special artist like this to make you realize the beauty of jazz.
I heard "Once I Was Loved" when the U.S. ice dancers performed. Loved the song and her voice. Can't wait to hear more.
I had heard this many times before and the melody just popped into my head today and it took me a while to find this masterpiece again but by god was it worth it.what an amazing song and an even more amazing woman.
Found you in 2014 and still love this song. It’s a classic. ❤ If I ever get married THIS is THE song. Thank you for your gift.
Gran homenaje a Melody Garbot🌟🌟🌟⚘ , en la serie "Wolf like me" !!!!.
Cariños desde Chile!!!🧚🏻♀️🧝♀️💗

Wunderschöne Frau mit einer goldenen Stimme.
Melody sure is amazing, isn't she? This inspired me to also write a song with the word "fool" in the title. :)
She has a kind of old hollywood glam and such sophistication to her songs
un instant dans des bras féminins et partir dans les confins éthérés, je plane de bonheur. Merci MELODY pour cette mélodie.
Magical voice, I recently discovered Melody Gardot's music🙏🙏🙏🙏
My new favorite song! Vintage! I love Melody' voice lyrics and this video...LOVE Reigns supreme! the strings! the guitar! Baby, I'm a Fool....!!! THANK YOU BEAUTIFUL MELODY! BLESSINGS TO YOU! I PRAY FOR YOU OFTEN!!! COURAGE HAS A PHOTO OF YOU NEXT TO IT IN THE ENCYCLOPEDIA/DICTIONARY. XXOO
I love you Melody
I know what it feels like to have awful pain in your body while you are still very connected to Source and the Universe
It doesn't get any better than this...Kate Bush, Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan...and Melody Gardot
Got to know her music via her duet with Sting "A little something". Great song! I love her voice, very soothing music.
Love this girl! Her voice and her style is so amazing!
Chaque fois que j’ai envie (ou besoin !! ) d’ un peu de douceur, j’écoute Mélody !! Une vraie caresse pour l’âme !! Merci Belle Dame !!
Its beautiful to hear something like this, a voice from another era, we love u
BlessingS to her, thank the LORD we didn't lose her>>We may never have heard this unique voice of hers. x
She transports you to a different era with her music 😍❤!
A truly wonderful voice and talent. She reminds me very much of the equally brilliant, Norah Jones.
Heard it once, by chance and now the CD is (s)winging it's way here!
I have no doubt about it:She is the most impressive, talented and fantastic singer of the last 20 years.
"Still my heart would benefit from a little tenderness from time to time...."
Such a beautiful version of this song. The first time I heard it on JazzFM, I searched her out and bought that album. Every song is a winner, she has a very appealing style...for me. (the video seems a little superfluous but then again I'm old school :))
such a beautiful song by such an outstanding artist - thank you for this gift Melody - - and the strings - oh,...perfection,...thank you!!
Wow!! Beautiful song!! Beautiful voice!! Where have you been Melody!!
I just found my gateway drug, it's her voice.
Lead? Well my ears are having a full on orgasmic experience.
+tellmeshades Leads to listening more wonderful vocal jazz.
a voice that'll bring your soul to heaven.
@@PlatonicPurplePanda you know what, that's called ecstasy. And yes I felt the same.
@@blackbird5634 I wish there were any words to explain the beauty in the voice.
My fist Melody Gardot song ever. Been hooked since. Loved all of her songs. every album start to finish. WOW!
How is it possible I just discovered this truly brilliant voice...so sexy, soothing, intimate & magical. Bravo!
I felt the same way when I discovered her 10 years ago. She is still making music. Wonderful voice.
I felt the same way when I discovered her when this album CAME OUT!! 💕💜
I remember it so clearly, I was about 11 years old and it doesn't really need anymore words - *I was obviously in love with her from the beginning!*
Few years ago I played her version of Somewhere Over The Rainbow on my dear grandpa's funeral, he and me were jazz-lovers 🥰
Le charme intemporel de l'élégance américaine.
The timeless charm of the American elegance.
Sublime.
so retro yet modern...don't know if that makes sense. love her style.
Makes perfect sense.
Thats what retro is. Modern but in the 'old style'.
Something old, something new!
T I M E L E S S
Who cares about sense when you have beauty
She embodies grace, talent but also tremendous courage . My husband offered me her album entitled Sunset in the Blue and I listen to it twice a day . My music therapy thanks to Melody.
I love this woman's voice!! Her music gets me through many, many work days in a positive state of mind.
One of the best videos and tunes... I will be playing the rest of the album in my Bowie Bomb Bath....x
classy, poised, elegant, agonising - this can easily pass off as a bond theme
Melody, I will forever remember your concert at Madrid' s Sabatini Gardens, back in 2010.
Spain had just won the football World Cup, and their celebration, some hundred meters away, kept on bothered us the whole gig.
I felt ashamed, I must confess.

Every night I listen to Madam Gardot, it's my way to relax after such hard days.

"look me in the eye and tell me love is never based upon insanity" I love this line so much.
Melody, you have melted this hard mans soul and turned my entire persona to mush, I am crushed - but in a good way x
thank you dear Melody ... you are my favourite ...really admire you and you music and passion about life. love xx

Wow - what a timbre voice, so easily powerful. Love it 💝 discovered the song just recently as an intro to a Peter O‘Toole documentary on arte. Thanks.
so calm and sexy song, i wonder why artists don't make such songs anymore these days
Какой милый, нежный клип! What a cute, gentle clip! Thank you, it was a pleasure to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of femininity worship.
Beautiful voice! I've been a fan for years! Lovely jazz vocals. Thank you for sharing!! 💞
