two weeks before he passed away, and with virtually no strength left, he visited a Children Variety's fair in LA to lightened hundred of children's faces singing, "Candy Man." What a wonderful giving soul. So glad I was there to video this wonderful demonstration of kindness.
"May I drink to your health , may I say God bless us all... may we all live as one.... may we have peace, happiness, love and togetherness with each other on this planet Earth" This one toast summarizes everything that we all want in life on this Earth. God rest your soul Mr. Sammy Davis Jr. you were one of the best.
RIGHT ON, RON A! I AM IN TOTAL AGREEMENT WITH YOU.AND YES, SAMMY DAVIS JR. WAS ONE OF THE BEST! I AM ALSO A HUGE FAN OF "THE KING OF ROCK N ROLL"ELVIS AARON PRESLEY! IF IT WASN'T FOR ELVIS PRESLEY AND MY MOTHER I WOULD NOT KNOW WHO SAMMY DAVIS JR. WAS.I CAN IMPERSONATE BOTH MEN.I AM AN ACTOR IN THE MAKING AND I CAN SING AND ENTERTAIN.THANKS FOR BEING A SAMMY DAVIS JR. FAN.
P.S.ELVIS WAS ALSO FRIENDS WITH SAMMY DAVIS JR.. THAT WANNABE MANAGER OF ELVIS', THE PHONY PIECE OF CRAP, AND THEIF COLONEL TOM PARKER WAS PREJUDICED AGAINST BLACK PEOPLE! HE DISLIKED SAMMY DAVIS JR. SAMMY TALKED ABOUT IN HIS 1989 BOOK "WHY ME?"ELVIS WANTED TO HAVE SAMMY BE IN HIS MOVIES.
@@jamesbova3134 That's interesting James, my Mom was a huge fan of Elvis too. btw Elvis was also a big civil rights advocate. I will say that I believe Elvis, Sammy, Frank and Dean were some of the best entertainers that ever graced the stage.
Even Elvis was aware of Sammy's special talents. He once called Sammy the finest entertainer around. For his size and stature he could belt out the tunes with the best of them. Sing, dance, act, perform, and was the fastest quick draw pistol packer in Hollywood. Oh, and all with one eye by the by!
I still remember him on someone’s show laughing and saying he was sure he was the only one eyed Jewish black man in America! He became a Jew for his wife who was Jewish.
Matt Fusello Are you not entertained? I know I am. Sammy doesn't have the luxury of an IEM and so can't hear himself. I suspect that because it's being broadcast live on tv, he doesn't even have a stage monitor to hear himself and the band. Sammy is a goddamned legend!
Quite easily, the greatest entertainer of all time,bar none. The world looks at icons , like Elvis Presley, James Brown, Aretha Franklin, and yes, Michael Jackson. But nobody is holding a light to this man whatsoever.
Started out in life as a 5 year old in vaudeville. Performed through Racism and Jim Crow Laws. All that America could throw at him and he kept going. This man was way past a class act. He did what all the white acts was doing with twice the talent half the respect and done it with a smile. Do you know what kind of spirit you needed to have in those days?! Unshakable! Rock Solid! This man was truly great! Miss you Mr. Davis!
Happy Happy 94th Birthday! You are so missed! What a wonderful entertainer you were! We don't have entertainers anymore. You could do it all and you appreciated your audience!!!! God Bless You Sam!!!!
R.I.P Robert BARETTA Blake..and Sammy Davies JR
Que gran tipo el mejor
es fabuloso, increíblemente fenomenal.... si buscamos a los mejores cantantes de la historia de la música...Sammy Davis Jr. tiene una dimensión más.
There was never ever anyone like him and never will be again. He has been my fantasy my whole life.. it will go to the grave with me. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I met Sammy at a grocery store where I worked. He came there to promote his BBQ sauce. He was very nice to us all. It was a thrill I'll never forget!
When entertainers had charisma talent class and a complete sense of who they were total confidence and comfortable in their own skin
Sammy Davis was a class act👊🙏R.I.P SAMMY
No division just a great American entertainment RIP Sammy!👍🏼🙏🏼

Always loved Sammy...
The epitome of class. This man had more talent in his pinky than all of Hollywood today...
I second that.
Such a nice way of speaking - ❤
Mad wah wah performance, like in Shaft!!
💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
He was one of the greats.....
Sammy Davis Jr. Was a big part of my childhood... and now I see why Gen x is so great because of people like sammy
This best theme song on tv.. Baretta
Pure Awesomeness!!
❤️
What an a new learning experience. Just heard him sing Hawaii 5-0 and Kojak for the first time and now Baretta. Never knew any of them had lyrics.
Better than a 79 live version.
The legendary mr sammy Davis jr.... R I P sammy...
Even Elvis was aware of Sammy's special talents. He once called Sammy the finest entertainer around. For his size and stature he could belt out the tunes with the best of them. Sing, dance, act, perform, and was the fastest quick draw pistol packer in Hollywood. Oh, and all with one eye by the by!
elvis wished he could be in the same room as sammy...
I still remember him on someone’s show laughing and saying he was sure he was the only one eyed Jewish black man in America! He became a Jew for his wife who was Jewish.
He even does the cockatoo sound.
What a Prince of a guy. Wonderful.
This is from the time not that long ago, where people actually had to have real talent to perform at this level.
Sammy is wasted here, he's not even in time w the band. this is a disgrace
And he STILL blows away anything on the charts today!
THIS IS A DISGRACE ???, MY GOD YOU ARE A REAL JERK.
Matt Fusello Are you not entertained? I know I am.
Sammy doesn't have the luxury of an IEM and so can't hear himself. I suspect that because it's being broadcast live on tv, he doesn't even have a stage monitor to hear himself and the band.
Sammy is a goddamned legend!
Matt fusello I cannot even fathom why would you say such? This man is far from wasted. You need to learn about him before saying anything of the sort.
Amen ♡♡
Sparrow...loves Davis.
Boommmm Shaka 🤙🏼 laka boom boom boom boom 🤯 Sammy kicked A$$
This was amazing. Thank you for posting! 👍👏😎
Quite easily, the greatest entertainer of all time,bar none. The world looks at icons , like Elvis Presley, James Brown, Aretha Franklin, and yes, Michael Jackson. But nobody is holding a light to this man whatsoever.
Didn't have to add Elvis 😂😂
RIP Mr. Davis🙏🏾
I love Sinatra but this guy was the BEST.
He was just one of kind......dance, comedy, and sing......
I haven't seen anyone do it all..
The most complete entertainer who ever graced a stage there will never be his equal.
He ain't no Elvis . As well as quite a few others .
Elvis ain't no Sammy. Elvis wishes he had at least half of Sammy's talent. Cause that white man ain't talent. Fohhhh@@jerrywoods4066
Sammy was the man
Great Legend....
Sammy was a great guy!!

I couldn't agree with you more.
Yet he was never bitter and most of his close friends were white. He was bigger than any such petty issues... the key to greatness!
baretta song
Quit your whining!!! Sammy was cool, we all bear our own crosses
Lordcron blacks off today need to learn from him
Everytime I see him, I learn. You are inmortal, Samy Davis Jr.
