- Here's another of the numbers that singer / actor Jamie Parker performed at the "Late Night Sinatra" Prom in London's Royal Albert Hall during the 2015 Proms Season. John Wilson and his Orchestra provided the superb accompaniment and Jamie showed what a wonderful singer he is. Indeed, one critic wrote that his "rich smooth tones were beautifully saturated with colour ... the audience were mesmerised."
NOTE: The entire concert has been released on a 'Warner Classics' DVD, so this is a very tempting 'sampler' indeed! ... Warner Classics (Catalogue No.2564602844).
PS: Jamie first achieved fame in the play and film of Alan Bennett's "The History Boys." More recently, he has appeared on the London stage as Harry Potter in "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child."
A wonderful rendition Mr Parker.
Goose bumps. Love this guy, the orchestra, the moment.
I love his delivery.
What a wonderful wonderful song, just stunning! And Jamie's singing and the John Wilson Orchestra are just perfect. Thank you for putting this on UA-cam, Adam. As you say below, the other songs sung by Jamie in this concert are just superb. I was absolutely knocked out by Jamie's singing when I first heard him back in 2015.
That arrangement and his voice just carry me back to places I believed I would never feel again. Thank you so much.
A classic. Gorgeous & simply sublime.
Great tune in key of G . Love it !!🎹❤️🕊🙏💕
Glad you like it!
Thank you, Mr. Parker. The Prince of Wales favorite song in 1928. My favorite song as well.
A classic ballad from 1928.
I'm in love 😍😍😍😍
Outstanding version!
Can we hear What's New?. It was in the same concert, or in another John Wilson performance. He sings it so well.
what a voice! 😍😍😍😍😍
I could show the world how to smile
I could be glad all of the while
I could change the grey skies to blues
If I had you
I could leave the old days behind
Leave all my pals, I'd never mind
I could start my life all a new
If I had you
I could climb the snow capped mountains
Sail the mighty ocean wide
I could cross the burning desert
If I had you by my side
I could be a king, dear, uncrowned
Humble or poor, rich or renowned
There is nothing I couldn't do
If I had you
I could show the world how to smile
I could be glad all of the while
I could change the grey skies to blues
If I had you
I could leave the old days behind
Leave all my pals, I'd never mind
I could start my life all a new
If I had you
I could climb the snow capped mountains
Sail the mighty ocean wide
I could cross the burning desert
If I had you by my side
I could be a king, dear, uncrowned
Humble or poor, rich or renowned
There is nothing I couldn't do
5:02 thanks for posting the lyrics!
And Robert Farnon, whom Jamie graciously acknowledges, was Canadian. Jamie is a great singer very much in the Sinatra tradition. Bravo!
Superb!
Oh snap, he's got something specia.

Thank you
Beautiful romantic song, with a wonderful singer performing.
Yes, Jamie is a wonderful singer and from that same programme, I've uploaded him singing these songs: "I Won't Dance"; "Cheek to Cheek"; "From This Moment On" and the "Guys and Dolls" duet with Seth MacFarlane. They're all great, so check them out!

Is this the same Jamie Parker who plays Harry in the Cursed Child play? The 'eighth Harry Potter story'?
The very same, He also recently starred as Macauley "Mike" Connor in High Society and as Sky in Guys & Dolls
He also plays piano I just discovered...like, it’s actually disgustingly unfair how many skills the man has...
Jamie just opened on Broadway (April 2018) in 'Harry Potter and the Cursed Child' to rave reviews. Check them out by googling!
And he was amazing in The History Boys too! Check him out as Scripps!
@@bobby-tu2nh ... Also check him out in several other songs here from the Proms, including 'Cheek to Cheek', 'I Won't Dance' and 'From This Moment On' ... all quite superb and with a great orchestral backing from John Wilson!
Does anyone hear that guy booing
The guy's certainly making a weird noise but I wouldn't have said it was booing exactly. It sounded like he was just getting carried away by the occasion!
I have a feeling it’s not booing- I think it might actually be someone who mentally impaired.
@@haladin8385 can confirm that it was someone with a pre-existing medical condition but they was enjoying the concert all the way through
@@mackindle12345 I'm glad they were able to! From the clips it seems like it was a wonderful evening!
