A great talent. So versatile and entertaining. The old songs were so much better than you hear today. Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett. Sadly all gone now. The entertainers danced, played piano, actors one and all. RIP dear souls. ❤
I just gained HUGE admiration for Sammy Davis Jr. as a performer. Lost a link to Connie Francis for this tune, ended up here, and he owned it with his impressionistic takes. I'm going to take a closer view, this man was an ENTERTAINER.
Simply the VERY best ever. I discovered him in the mid sixties (I was only a littlely till then), and even though I still loved all the great, late 60s and 70s rock bands I found a special place in my heart for Sammy and its never gone away all these years after he left us way too soon. I will always adore him. He has that very special indefinable thing. There are no words. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Awesome talent and he is sadly missed by many people ! Love this song and Judy Garland and LOrna Luft and Jerry Lewis and oh Lena Zavoroni has sang this song !
He is a multi talented genius. He does it all. He is brilliant. Impressions, sings, dances, taps, acts, plays instruments, gun slinger. Died age 64. I miss your amazing talent.
@@danielscuiry2847 impressions and what Jolson did are two different things. Jolson was a singer not an impressionists. Sammy could never be Jolson and vice versa. Apples and oranges. 🍊 Did you see 100 years of laughter when Alan King took George Burns to see Sammy for the first time? Watch that video it’s on here and you’ll love what Burns told Alan King
Wish such talents live forever ….❤❤❤
So talented, chilled and entertaining

He is one of the best, and should be celebrated much more.

Absolutely out of this world.
Not even his pals Sinatra or Dean Martin could come close to him. He was so amasingly versatile.
Mega~watt talent in a tiny frame ... one of the most supremely gifted artists of all~time!
true!
Stunning. Surely one of the great entertainers of the 20th century!
Nobody better...ever!
I never knew....Now I do.
So freakin excellent!!!
😎😎😎
True legend and one of the all time greatest! His talent will always be alive. Thank you for this wonderful video 👍🏻
Love IT...the best. Thanks for posting Sir.
A touch of Jolson.
Mr. Sammy Davis can do no wrong, his voice and showmanship is right up there of course, with his friends--------- Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin.
I miss him sooo much 😭😭😭😭😭
That’s Entertainment
Goosebumps 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Sammy Davis Jr was and still is not only a Mega Watt fucking talent, he is a god damn fucking Super Nova.
Amazing!!!!
Fenomenale unico
Amazing
I read that Dean Martin said "If I had your talent I wouldn't have to drink"
beautiful.
Un grande e vero fenomeno unico. Sammy.
My son Andrew is 25 and he loves the Rat Pack
So slick
Rhe last troubadour?
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Unbelievable
Didn't you have the full concert uploaded a few years back? Any chance you could send it to me? Let me know and I'll give you my email address.
I wonder if Mr. Davis really had many fond memories of the land of Dixie
It's just a tune, for heaven's sake....I happen to love the tune of the former Soviet Union, doesn't mean I love their politics. Lighten up!!
He didn't do Jerry Lewis! Why'd he skip Jerry Lewis, who had a hit cover of this very song back in 1955?
Better than Jolson 🙂
Great, But no one could beat Jolson.
@@cjc4765 I wonder if Jolson could have done impressions of those artists and get so much mileage out of them.
