- Not only is he a brilliant singer but Sammy does marvelous impersonations of other singers to the song One For My Baby!
Sammy does the best Dino and Jerry Lewis!

He was seriously talented. What an entertainer he was.
GOD was really showing off when HE made Mr. Sammy Davis Jr.
He was a proud Satan worshipper and a member of the church of Satan. He rejected God sadly.
Sammy was a class act 💕
What a perfect sentiment!!!
Your god didn't make Sammy. His parents made Sammy and from there Sammy became Sammy.
He put in the hard work, maximized his talents and became a legend through his own determination being who he chose to be.
Giving any credit to a god of any kind is a disservice to the hard work Sammy Davis Jr. put into his craft.
Using your shoot from the hip logic....
If your god has to show off through other people by using their talents instead of his own...if he has any talents, then your god is incapable of developing his own skills himself, hence he has to steal the talents of those clearly better than him...
That's rather pathetic
Well said🎉❤
Sammy Davis, Jr. was a true American treasure.
Yes you said it all 🙂👍
Thats what a true entertainer is supposed to be!! Sammy really had a tremendous talent! That Generation style won't be seen again unfortunately.
Sammy is the very definition of Entertainer.
WHAT A COMPLETE PERFORMER THIS MAN REALLY WAS.!
He was an American Treasure, and he Broke down many Door's for so many that came after, Thank you Mr..Davis for all that your talents gave the World , and forgive those who did show you the RESPECT you and so many richely Deserved.....
Sammy was the best of the best.
RIP Sammy and thank you for everything. X
One of the finest gentlemen, performer gentlemen I have ever had the gentlemen I have ever had the opportunity to see. If this world could be anything like this man then we would be much, much better as a human race.
Very sad that that so many of today’s generations haven’t even heard of Sammy nor the many people that he impersonated in this video. There were so many other great entertainers who we all knew when we were growing up - I wish there were a way to bring them to the forefront to exhibit what natural talent (without electronic enhancement, lewd dancing, and questionable lyrics) won the hearts of their audience.
He owed several millions in tax and his assets are frozen. This is why he has vertically disappeared. So sad.
“What Kind of Fool Am I”. So glad I was part of his generation.
I'm 15 and sammy davis inspired me to be a humble class clown in my school 🤣🤣
What the hell am I watching? This is pure gold. This makes today look so bad.
Sammy Davis jr was a great man, entertainer, actor and singer. You are missed Dear Sir
Wow he’s criminally underrated.
I honestly can't think of a better all-around entertainer than Sammy - singer, dancer, actor, comedian, impressionist... He really did it all, and did it brilliantly!
He got a lot of recognition and respect. I can remember seeing him on talk shows, TV specials, and Award Shows. He was always handing out compliments to the point one night on The Tonight Show Johnny Carson pulled the reins on him.
He received nominates for a Golden Globe Award and two Emmy Awards for his television performances. He was the recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors twice, once in 1987 and in 2001. He recieved the Spingarn Medal by the NAACP. He recieved a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award posthumously. I don't know how often someone gets a Kennedy award twice. Do you know?
I think he was well rated and there was nothing criminal related to him except his friend Frank Sinatra. 😉
He's not underrated. I just explained how he wasn't in post above. This person saying he is underrated was obviously not that well acquainted with his body of work and the accolades he received from them.
😊
@@donnyposey5179 That's right. Anyone who states that Sammy was underrated doesn't know what they're talking about. He was & is one of the greatest entertainers of the century. Can't think of anyone in the entertainment world that can hold a candle to Sammy.
One of the best singers ever😇😇😇🖤🖤🖤
My vote for the greatest entertainer of the 20th century! From when I was, literally, maybe three or four years old, and remember seeing this incredible man on TV, and saw what he could do! Dance, tap, sing, twirl pistols, do impressions, act, riff and ad lib...ALL at world class levels - my God, what a gift to the stage! I loved him from the time I was a kid in the 1960s and still do.
Thank you for posting these (thankfully we have them) videos - maybe new fans will see what multi- faceted talent really looks like; the one and only Sammy Davis, Jr. 🥰
Church of Satan Anton LeVay would vote for him
My sentiments exactly! He was the ultimate performer.
Totally agree 100%. Don't forget YES I CAN, his incredible auto biography. I read it in high school in 1967. One of the greats
He was one of a kind there will never be a another one👍👍👍👍👍👍
I can’t tell you how happy it made me to see this!!! God bless his memory. He was simply the best.
When I was a young RAF guy in Libya in the early 60's I had his live album recorded at the Coconut Grove. Everybody was always borrowing it.
I defy you to name ANYONE as talented as this man. I watch him and listen to him in complete awe.
James Carney? He didn't sing but he did everything else Sammy did, plus he was an awesome actor, & Sammy didn't act. Not well anyway. Cagneys dancing was really better too.
@@sandyjuntunen4088
*Cagney;...->:"Carney"!!
Maybe eddie or jamie. Cause those guys are great with impersonations, singing, acting and instrumental talent
@Money_era
In my opinions, neither has any equal amount of talent that Sammy had!!!!
@@AndrewHeller-jn7dx what all could sammy do
The original song and dance man :)
I miss guys like Sammy, guys who could really sing and make you feel
Sammy was a class act 💕
Such a multitalented man - may he RIP..
he brought people together ... love him
Amazing talent…… vocal skills beyond belief……👏👏👏👏😉👍
Sammy could charm the birds from the trees.An all rounder in entertainment.
A truly missed major talent, Sammy had a fabulous voice, in ways more powerful than Frank's. He was underrated, but his comedic talent was red hot given when this was recorded. You are still in our hearts and minds and we love you and miss you. ❤
Sammy Davis ...showman fantastique!
Sammy Davis is wonderful - soo freakin’ talented! I was on the floor laughing and totally amazed at his impersonations (especially Nat King Cole)! What a beautiful man. What a brilliant gig! We love you, Mr.. Davis ✨🌷🌱
Born entertainer we don’t have anyone that can touch him today
What a talent, how we miss him.Superb.No one out there now, to entertain like him, Frank,,Dean.the list is endless.
Mister Entertainment - definitely the greatest talent the US ever had.
When stars had real talent. Sammy was the greatest !
Absolutely BRILLIANT!! Once in a lifetime talent.. RIP Sammy, you are the greatest.... 👌
Love me some Sammy Davis, Jr.
Sammy Davis Jr was, overall THE MOST talented person in entertainment history.
He got a lot of recognition and respect. I can remember seeing him on talk shows, TV specials, and Award Shows. He was always handing out compliments to the point one night on The Tonight Show Johnny Carson pulled the reins on him.
He received nominates for a Golden Globe Award and two Emmy Awards for his television performances. He was the recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors twice, once in 1987 and in 2001. He recieved the Spingarn Medal by the NAACP. He recieved a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award posthumously. I don't know how often someone gets a Kennedy award twice. Do you know?
I think he was well rated and there was nothing criminal related to him except his friend Frank Sinatra. 😉
Hollywood and the music industry are filled with nepotism and true friends that helped their true friends. It's incredible when someone from the outside breaks through. Sammy Davis Jr. was a door opener and most importantly, fun and entertaining.
Later Dean plays Jerry but he was so huge and famous at the time that he didn't need to mention his name. He just imitated him.
Not only is he the most talented singer, dancer and actor. His speaking voice to his audience is worth the price of admission alone.
What an amazing talent.
Mr. Entertainment is what they called him. Sammy Davis, Jr. 💖👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💯
Well well deserved!!
SO sad I could'nt enjoy this marvellous man, incredible voice,
great enterteinment. Thanks COVID-19 I had tome to watch Viña del Mar, where Paul Anka sings with him IM NOT ANYONE!! I could'nt believe such a beautiful song!
He was fantastic! 🙏💕
In addition to everything else mentioned (singing, dancing, acting, comedy), Sammy Davis Jr was a phenomenal trick shooter and gun twirler, known as a master of the “quick draw.” I’m not generally a fan of guns, but watching films of him handling one (or several) is mesmerizing.
He was a great entertainer indeed. 👏👏👏
Simply one of the Best entertainers of all time.
This is one of the best items on UA-cam.
Even Jim Morrison deemed him,one of his own heroes and he's probably one of the most talented of his Era, I mean He was in the Rat Pack !
Of all ERAS!!!
Sammy was an absolute genius
Now that's what I call a versatile performance !
The best of the best! Great artist ❤
Thank you, Mr. Davis !
Pillowcases!!! Great storytelling…
the entire event used to be on UA-cam and then it was taken off. Shame.
Sammy gets that tone that Nat King Cole had. Amazing
Sammy's gold and diamond cigarette case and lighter are amazing. His ballet with them and the cigarette is a work of art, but that's what wound up killing him.
We all have to go one day.
That is REAL TALENT!
Intelligence and talent in an era that we needed him to help us be one country
This is talent on steroids.
and when he danced Man !! He danced !!
As a child I cherished Sammy, didn’t know why just did…….
I miss Sammy. Simply the best!
Uno de los GRANDES.
This is the real deal ladies and gentlemen...accept no substitutes! Vale Sammy.
What a great singer, what a performer.
But I do like him. There's no Sam again the most talented entertainer the world has seen
That don't make 'em like that anymore! Superb!
Awesome singer!! ❤️. 🥂🍾🎉
Que genial gracias por existir
Totally captivating and entertaining...
GOAT - thank you for posting ❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏
Wow! Just wow...
What a voice...absolutely unbeatable
The greatest entertainer ever!!!!!!
When music had class along with the entertainers.
Love him!
Wow, just wow.
Coolest dude with a cigarette ever. RIP
Samuel George «Sammy» Davis Jr. (Harlem, 8 de diciembre de 1925-Beverly Hills, 16 de mayo de 1990) fue un cantante, músico multinstrumentista (vibráfono, trompeta, trombón y batería), bailarín, actor y comediante estadounidense. Fue parte del Rat Pack, que dentro de sus miembros contaba con Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Peter Lawford y Joey Bishop.
What a wonderful guy Mr. Sammy Davis Jr.
There were singers, there were dancers, and entertainers…..then there was Sammy. Never another.
Impeccable😍😍😍😍😍
Natural performer.
He was my mom’s favorite!!!!
SAMMY. WAS. THE. BEST...NO. DUPLICATIONS. ....❤️💗💕
The best
I kind of forgot how great he was. r.
One of the greats.
The greatest entertainer of his generation ( among alot of very talented people) but sammy was the all round best performer . Singing dancing comedy acting he could do it all! Rip sammy davis jr 😢
Love the video he was a great singer 😍💓
THE BEST VOICE ❤
The discrimination of the time kept him from making it on his own. If Frank hadn’t co signed him, who knows what we’d have of this guy. It’s sad💔
Okay, somewhat true, but it’s part of history and we all too often forget that because of the Rat Pack we who were ready for change made change happen! It’s easy to find fault, not so easy to have been the person who stood up and was spit upon, beaten up and ostracized because of who we defended. I had a dress torn off my body, was beaten up and sent walking home in my underwear because I stood up for my friends - who were not just black, but were also Irish! Yes, even California had real Jim Crow laws - for blacks/Irish/Italian and the poor. I was literally dirt poor. My friends were the outcast who were the absolute best friends ever!
Just a little History lesson, which is not talked about!
@@daramorikawa5651 Stop with the Discrimination and RACE CARD CRAP !!! Its enough already ! Make it Own Your own. This is America ! If Illegal Aliens can come from all over the world and settle in the USA and become Millionaires and Share the American Dream then anybody else can as well. When People like Dara with such small minds can actually stop making excuses for other peoples actions we all will live in a much better world. The USA in not perfect but buy constantly crying Racism and Discrimination it belittles a whole class of people. Sammy Davis Jr was a once in a Generation Talent and if it wasn't for his famous friends his gifts wouldn't have been able to be shared with the world. STOP THE HATE DARA and show one love for everybody ! We are different in so many ways. Sammy didn't ask You to stick up for him and didn't need it. Dara, please learn a lesson here that soon when You keep crying wolf eventually nobody will come to Your aid. I hope that day never comes for You. God Bless, NBR
Some people need to be quiet you wasn’t there Everybody got there own story Get you a life and some business a race card that 🤡
@@biancabraxton3521 Nobody cares about Your Story Bianca !! Get a job and Move on ! Life is Cruel !! You have to make it on Your own in today's world. This Race Crap is for the birds. People are tired of it and You will see that in the upcoming months. Thank You and ALL LIVES MATTER !!!
I disagree he made it on his own merit he is talented he is funny and he can take a joke and he's full of laughs he's a good man I've always enjoyed Sammy Davis Jr may he rest in peace
I remember how the great Shirley Bassey, recalled when she first came to Vegas, and Sammy had to warn her about where could she be, and where she was not allow to be. It was a shock to her. She was from England and such barbarity didn't exist there.
Always amazing!
Tremendo genio!!!!! Lo que habría dado por verte actuar en persona.
Un grandissimo artista non apprezzato 🤗🤗
Wonderful performance
Thank you Sammy Davis you are a masterful Entertainer
The talent. Be still my heart
I believe, that his greatest instrument is his speaking voice
How barren is our musical/entertainment world? There are no great people like hm left living!
Unbelievable .
