- 'A Foggy Day' ,sung by Judy, is the song that reverberates in me at this time of year ... an echo that sounds on June 10th, loud and resonant ... & slowly fades into the distance after June 22nd.
Performed by Judy numerous occasions on her show, & in concert ... this version ... sung so intimately to her guest Terry Thomas ... is sublime. It is of a greatness with which nothing else compares.
Judy reached into the world's heart with record breaking concert audiences ... but, even among a sea of thousands she had a way - how can it be explained? - of drawing every person into an embrace, as if she were singing just for you, only you.
This moment captures the essence of her magic as she embraces with every word, telling me - us - about her 'Foggy Day In London Town' ...
Written by Ira and George Gershwin, 1937.
I was a stranger in the city
Out of town were the people I knew
I had that feeling of self-pity
What to do? What to do? What to do?
The outlook was decidedly blue
But as I walked through the foggy streets alone
It turned out to be the luckiest day I've known
A foggy day in London Town
Had me low and had me down
I viewed the morning with alarm
The British Museum had lost its charm
How long, I wondered, could this thing last?
But the age of miracles hadn't passed,
For, suddenly, I saw you there
And through foggy London Town
The sun was shining everywhere.

Can you imagine sitting right NEXT to her while she sings this song to YOU?
Imagine being privately sung to by the great Judy Garland: One would die and go to heaven!
My god what brilliance. Garland was is undoubtedly among the GREATEST story telling vocalists we'll ever see. There's nobody compares to her soulfulness of style ❤❤❤❤❤❤
She is so exotic, stunning and so
absolutely brilliant!
Great talent
She left us tragically
Once Judy sang a song that other singers performed before her, she took it and made it her own and no one could or would ever sing it better. She was brilliant.
Pure magic. The way she can look at him while she sings directly to him. No one else has ever been able to do that in such a special way. My favorite version of this song by the GREAT GARLAND!
BHW722 She was trained very well in her MGM days in the art of singing to a romantic partner. She wasn’t afraid of getting close. This is lovely, Judy at the top of her game.
@@frankiebowie6174 very organic though they trained her well, she really pulls you in voice and all
Beautiful, Thank you. This was filmed October 13, 1963 and aired Sunday 9:00 PM. Her really loyal audience were the British. They still loved her even when she was down and the voice was not there. But even without the voice she had the heart and presence. No one has ever given to an audience as Judy Garland. She offered her talent, her heart and soul and we loved her for it. I am grateful to have lived at the time to have seen her live and meet her. No one like her before or since.
Thank You. XO
wow what she like live?????? sooooo envious x
There are Stars
Then there are Superstars.
Then there was the talent of
Judy Garland. 👍 🇺🇸 🇬🇧
IMO the definitive version of this song ... by the definitive singer.
In a lot of the Judy Show recordings, especially the quieter ones, you often hear people, presumably filming crew or props departments etc, dropping things.... anyone else noticed that?
NOT ALL ALL ! Everyone there was just SPELLBOUND by this performance - it was PURE MAGIC !!
Yes, I've always wondered what that enormous crash was and what got dropped!
The way she managed her fabulous voice!! Looord ❤.. Fabulous Judy 💞...💜🌿
You have to close your eyes, no distraction. Just listen to this miracle.
June 22nd 2019 and it’s the 50th anniversary of this incredible woman’s passing! God rest your soul, dear lady.. you’re truly missed. 😞
I remember that day here in glasgow scotland ....i was 7 years old just returned home from playing soccer... was the main item on itv television new here in scotland 😓 a very hot sunny day
Now 52 years ago
What a life, so talented ❤👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽.
Terry Thomas was entranced ❤
Terry Thomas is so intent -- he's just shattered by her.
Sitting down no less-her talent was a 10.
So perfectly effortless, one of America's greatest performers, her singing so powerful & uniquely nuanced... footnote: the date is incorrect... this is JUDY, some years before in great voice...
That ending wiped me absolutely out. Touched me beyond words . What a beautiful , touching , sincere giving of herself to him, to all of us if anyone asks what made. Her so special, unique one just has to watch the and there is no further explanation Bravo Judy!!!!!!!!!
I love you Judy❤. What an artist and performer.
Literally teary eyes honestly beautiful rendition of the song ❤❤❤
No One Can Top That! EVER!!
No one could "act" a song like her.
I'm blown away...
Sublime.
In the TV show, they're chatting and he tells her he's heading back to London, would she sing "A Foggy Day" for him. Sublime!
We had what was memorable and out standing in music.
The one and only, the magic still persists. Thank you.
The best version ever
I can’t imagine what I would have been feeling if Judy Garland sang to me! Awesome
In one of the biographical of Judy a story is told about Judy being at someone's house and singing for a few friends. A neighbor happened to be there.
She said that the experience was unforgettable. She said that eventually Judy became uncomfortable and she was asked to leave.
What a thrill though to be there for that time.
Thank you to whomever posted this glorious moment... she is just spellbinding in this clip. Her voice is vulnerable yet swells to full orchestrated powerhouse mode and draws you back to her in the end. Nothing but her and the piano as it should be. Just gorgeous!!! ❤️
Superb!!! 💗
J'taime G A R L A N D. A legend unsurpassed.

PURE GOLD!

That voice!
She really knew how to sell a song..
wow. talk about having a way with a song. goosebumps. what a soulful, effortless rendition.
Magnificent
Glorious
What a talented lady! Absolutely sublime. Just a shame that her management failed her!!
She was so exquisitely feminine.
Excellent performance!!
perfect
AMAZING!!!!
Thank you for sharing this gem. What beauty, grace, and charm.
This is such an amazing performance, and sung directly to Terry Thomas. How did he not just pass out? It's so special. I would have probably embarrassed myself by fainting then urinating on myself. Yes, there's a reason I haven't met Liza :-)
Thanks for posting!
1:05- 1:10 Goosebumps
Wrong on the dates. You have her performing the day she died. And I assure you she didn't perform that day. LOL
This is from her show, Taped: July 23, 1963
, Aired: October 13, 1963.
Jack Ntulsa Thank you! She did not perform on that date! 😂
He meant she died in London on that date and so it was a "foggy day in London town "
Lucky ole Terry Thomas eh :-)
much.... Judy is Judy... no one like her!
Love Frances Gumm 👠
Imagine having the great Judy singing to you personally!! You die and go to mecca!
Great clip. But who was that guy smoking the cigarette with Judy
Terry Thomas
Watching Terry Thomas listen to her is rapturous. Sadly, they both had terrible ends.I suggest that you not view the video elsewhere on UA-cam of him at 77.
Can anyone suggest some more great old movies?
Any Judy Garland or Bette Davis
Penny serenade, the gay divorcée , Harvey girls
MarkRTrost is correct. This was aired in 1963. June 22, 1969 is the date of her death. :-(
someone please help me find the full sheet music for this pleaseee
Just google it, A Foggy Day by Gershwin. One of the most common songs around, easy to find.
She's perfect. Not 1969 however.
I think she was DEAD by June 22, 1969 WASN'T SHE ??
thats the idea, she died in london on a foggy day in london
