Including Generations not born yet. My Vet Son just came back from visit to Ireland, so I sent this to him because he said he likes listening to passionate music.. I got chills listening to Jackie's wonderful version.
I grew up in Detroit but only heard about Jackie Wilson. It wasn't until I found this song on a 45 in a trash can. I played it and cried when I heard his vocals. I NEVER heard anyone sing like that before in my life. I was instantly and forever a Jackie Wilson FANatic!! Rest In Power. There will NEVER be another voice like him.
Was a child but always appreciated good music. I was 65 percent TV Dick Clark was the man Philadelphia and Cali Loved ❤❤ Miss you Mr Dick Clark You gave us our Music and More ❤❤Rip
I remember when I was a know-it-all teen in the 90s, acting like our R&B singers invented runs. My dad was like...let me play something for you. Then played this song for me. This man truly set the standard for many others. He can dance well, too!
Elvis Presley Had a Great Admiration to Jackie Wilson and Whenever He Could Elvis Would Allways Attend Jackie Wilson's Concerts. They Became Fine Friends. There are Pictures of them Together and One of them autographed by Elvis saying:" Jackie Here You Have a Friend for Live Elvis Presley". When Elvis Heard that His Friend Jackie Wilson Had a Stoke He Immediately Sent a Cheque to Pay for the Expenses of a good hospital for Jackie Wilson to Stay . This Very True. I Listen Very Often to the Marvelous Jackie Wilson's voice in HIS Songs . GOD Bless Him In Heaven as well as Elvis Presley.
I couldn't believe it the first time I heard Jackie Wilson sing this song. It's my favorite rendition. Each time I play it, it still brings a tear to my eye... God bless him & Happy St. Paddy's Day Y'all!!!
When future generations want to know who was one of the greatest vocalist of our time. Jackie Wilson will head the list. They will cherish the fact that he has been recorded and filmed. His legacy will live on.
In my opinion, Jackie Wilson was the greatest American male singer ever recorded. He could sing any style better than anyone else. A guy like this comes along once in a century.
@@cecilwhileyjr.6012 It is upsetting isn't it. I hate what that Brunswick Label did to him. He died a pauper, these scheisters took him for everything he had along with other great groups of color. Michael J bought a headstone for his grave. Life was cruel to Jackie. May he be resting in heavenly peace.
Oh good Lord..mother of God......I have heard Danny Boy sung by everyone and then some over my 78 years...but never. Never. NEVER. Like this. I dont even have words to describe it. Just beautiful! 🎶🕊🎶
I have never ever heard a song sung the way this absolute master of the human voice portrays this song. A brilliant talent and imagination that keeps you hanging to the last note. Play it again Jackie, that was sensational!!!!!!!!
This man takes a song and owns it. How he uses his voice is so amazing. When he sings the word DOWN. with melismo he takes his voice down. INCREDIBLE. Imagine a singer like this turned up on one of these talent shows today like x factor. Their jaws would hit the carpet.
I am very grateful to the person who introduced me to Jackie singing Danny Boy. I might never have taken the time otherwise, even though I like Jackie Wilson. As somebody else has said, it is almost operatic with an instrumental backing that allows Jackie to showcase his extraordinary vocal ability. By far the most arresting version I have ever heard.
This is such an extraordinary rendition of an old classic, it sounds like the first time I have ever heard it sung! If anyone did it better than Jackie Wilson, I would sure like to hear it!
Jackie Wilson was and Will Allways BE a great Singer verter Said a Fantastic Tenor with a Perfect Pitch ,Diction, Vibrato and everything a Master Singer must have can Danny Boy is just One of His many other renditions like:" Over the Rainbow", "Night", "Baby Workout", "Stardust", "To BE Loved" "Hiher and Hiher" all in UA-cam . He hás also many Others . He os Called "Mr. Excitenent" because of the way He danced.Elvis Presley Admirer Jackie Wilson Greatly and they vexame fine friends . GOD Bless His soul as well as Elvis Presley's.
I've known his name all my life, but never knew he could sing like this. "Higher & Higher" is the only song I've ever heard before this. And I never saw a video of him either. What a giant hole in my musical knowledge, I'm embarrassed to admit. Spectacular!
In Fact Jackie Wilson is a fenomal and irreplaceable Singer . A Tenor that Could be either Soft and High, With an Excepcional Vibrato and Voice modulation that No Opera Singer Could Ever Had Done . In One World :" Excepcional"!
No Plácido Domingo Could Ever Had Sung What Jackie Wilson Did but Jackie Wilson Could Have Sung that Plácido Domingo Sung . Eceptional Singer Was Jackie Wilson Whom I Very Often Listen to.GOD BLESS Him in Heaven with His Friend Who admired Him like Elvis Presley. Yes It já Very True that Elvis Presley Greatly Admired Jackie Wilson and they Became Fine Friends.There are Pictures of them Together One of them autographed by Elvis Presley saying: :" Jackie Here you Have a friend Forever Elvis Presley"". You can see in the Net.
miss you so much jackie, i was 13 when i first heard you singing i fell in love with you in 1956....been in love with you ever since.. never heard anyone sing like you and never will "you don't know me "
What a rendition! His voice range is fantastic. My appreciation of him just grows and grows. He does a great job on "Stardust " and "Rags to Riches" as well. I feel he is one of our finest singers. A true treasure.
Mr. Jackie Wilson was a family friend and to me the “GREATEST VOCALIST GOD EVER CREATED”,and his version of Danny Boy will go down as the GREATEST ever recorded.🎼🎤🎼
That run that he does at 3:59 -4:06 is just pure magic. I mean I got shivers. I was singing this song jus now from when my dad used to play it allll day long when I was a kid. It made me think of him. My God. I miss my dad soo much n this song jus made me cry thinking of him. He could sing like Jackie too. Just didnt have the range.
I had the chance to see Jackie in person at The Regal Theater Chicago Il. What a joy. Truely MR. EXCITEMENT WELL EARNED. GONE TOO SOON. R.I.P FOR YOU ARE STILL LOVED.
He is the best singer ever. He can sing any kind of music. Opera, soul, rock, blues, gospel. His range is ridiculous. A singing angel brought down to earth to bless us with his voice. RIH King.
It's funny to me that you say that, because I always considered him one of the more overrated singers. Overwrought and phony emotionalism. His embellishments to Danny Boy are heavy-handed and not welcome. But typical for Jackie Wilson.
Although all of my ancestors were Irish I've never much cared for the song; except for Jackie's stunning version! Still gives me goosebumps after all these decades!
Robert you leave a very interesting comment, authentic and original, as I myself have twisted over this song, all my life; its popularity, and the many who covered this endless inspiring ballad; for me, questions always arrise. First and foremost Is about a man loving another man? As many males have covered this song. Or is it, someone singing for a long gone pesonality and friend he can't forget? Or is it a very longing jester to a brother or life long fond singing star; or is it, a female singing the song, being she had to leave him, and now in her grave she chants these lyrics,, and her spirit wishes her lover Danny to visit, often or sometime; because when he does, she will be there in spirit? Whatever the case, this version and the voice is powerful, and its a beautiful love song if anything and I think that's the whole poem. Thanks for your post.
I've heard this in so many styles, even by George benson when I was his personal assistant and butler, but nothing can or ever will beat the ever so beautiful and sweet version with Jackie Wilsons uniqueness added to it, this was sent from god himself folks.❤
This man is the Greatest Tenor I have ever heard in my life time! I am 75 have entertained around the world for years. Jackie is the MANN, when it comes to BADD MENN!❤️
this is the best version of Danny boy I've ever heard. I'm 100% Irish and I feel complimented, not insulted by Jackie Wilson pouring his heart out with a very beautiful and emotional performance.
I love Jackie Wilson!!! His voice was truly amazing--what a range!!! Michael Jackson said that, as entertainers, both Jackie Wilson and James Brown inspired him. But overall, Michael is still the greatest performer of all time! He was the most famous entertainer on the planet!
WoW, through a friend I have just found O Danny Boy sung by the great Jackie Wilson and oh boy am I glad I did, I have never heard anything like it BRILLIANT.
Best rendition of Danny Boy I have ever heard. He was a dynamite and emotional singer. ,That is why we called him ,'Mr. Excitement. Loved all of his songs. .
I never knew Jackie covered this version. I'm still in shock. What did I just listen to? I'll never think of "Danny Boy" the same ever again. I've always loved the song, but this version made me stand up and look at it again. Mom sang it to dad all of the time. He loved it. His signature mark is definitely throughout this beautiful and popular, historic song.
Those 400 and some people with thumbs down y'all get to hearing check they just don't sing like this anymore this is what you call a masterpiece awesome phenomenal
@@mariatorres-np2yg Best Danny Boy offering by anyone. I had a front row seat to watch Jackie Wilson and all of the other stars that did not need auto tune or any other enhancement. Singers in my era could all sing and every song told a story. I am so glad that I was a product of the sixties....The greatest decade ever. You just had to be there!!!!!
Jackie Wilson had more talent than people gave him credit for. In the 50s and 60s Jaclie was one of the few that ruled. I remeber hearing him in High School, Thank you for posting this song. Ole Sarge Usmc 69
Jackie Wilson, the ONLY singer who makes me love Danny Boy. Not a song I particularly like, yet his version is one of my favourite singing performances of all time and THAT is the genius of Jackie Wilson. A truly extraordinary vocal show from the most magnificent singer of all time... Definite contender for the greatest vocal performance of all time, didn't think it was possible to sing like that - thank you Jackie!
What a range!!! Oh Jackie Wilson could make any song seem as if it was his and only his. Truly God’s and our’s for a short and wonderful time. Rest In Peace. ThNk you!
I wonder if anyone in the audience, or Jackie, thought for a second, people would be watching this performance 50+ years later?
Yessssss. Seen him live many times at the Brooklyn Fox. He drove us girls crazy.

WITHOUT QUESTION, MY BROTHER!
I saw Jackie in concert in Idlewild, Michigan. Almost lost my mind got a chance to dance on stage OMG.
What a memory to have
I'm 70 yrs old , Ive heard a few thousand plus singers. Mr Wilson is surely one of the best .
All time favourite. My mother used to play this on the piano, and we would all sing! Thanks for this!
Wow! That range, strength and vibrato is incredible. He is so missed!
Wow yayyyyyyy omg you took the exact words to describe this…… “KING OF ROCK NROLL… all genres
You'd better believe it, Baby!!!!
Simply,
“The Greatest”
This song should be used as a dedication to all those missing in some lonely and far away land while fighting wars

My mother had me and my siblings listening to his music all day when we were little kids!! We enjoyed it then and we enjoy it now! 💓💓
He was amazing. I'm 78 now and when he came on the radio I turned it way up. I loved the sound of that voice. Now, I realize how really great he was.
Amazing Singer and Performer.

The definitive version of "Danny Boy"...to my thinking...
This dude has absolutely the most beautiful male voice I have ever heard. R.I.P. Mr. Excitement/Mr. Jackie Wilson.
Incredible rendition of Danny Boy !!
Four octaves, fine enough for the angels to stop and listen to.
I'm forever a fan of Jackie Wilson.
Mary
maryann Yost not quite. Jackie had A2-C6. Slightly short of four octaves
I fell in love with Jackie W at age 13. Love his music.
❤❤❤❤
Oh, my god. How wonderful was that!!
Saw Jackie Wilson and Sam Cooke in concert together when I was 16 years old and have loved their music every since.
The resonance is making my ears RING!
When future generations want to know who was one of the greatest vocalist of our time. Jackie Wilson will head the list. They will cherish the fact that he has been recorded and filmed. His legacy will live on.
This. gave. me. goosebumps. There's just not enough praise for his talent. He was wonderful. Miss you sir
Jackie Wilson
Love your music till the day I DIE
Awesome!😊
It doesn’t get any better than this…
What a voice! What a voice! I love this song, and his other exceptional one, "To Be Loved".
Operatic singer with a soul twist to it what a rendition.
No one ever sang Danny Boy better than Jackie Wilson, Mr. Excitement. RIP
There will never be another Jackie Wilson!!
