In a list of favorite "crooners", let's not forget Vic Damone, John Gary (gorgeous voice) Steve Lawrence (with or without Edie Gorme), Julio Iglesias.  There are a few more whose names escape me right now.  But, yes, even though Elvis was "King", I still purchased albums by the above singers.

Have to agree with Tomereader1

I do like good duets

I had fun with these sites, but didn't listen entirely to the links - I ended up watching Ray Bolger dance and sing, and at the last listened to Jimmy Durante sing some old favorites.

Julio Iglesias brings to mind a beautiful duet between two very different singers - Julio and Willie Nelson, singing To All The Girls I've Loved Before

Smashing song Marilyne, loved it, but.........I do my head in trying to remember....not all the girls I've loved I hasten to add, but trying to remember one......ha ha ha ha

Thank you for sharing......

I have a Julio Iglesias album, which he autographed for me (and many other swooning ladies).  I don't remember how long I stood in line!

I heard a normal version of Temptation the other day and thought of this version by Jo Stafford.  One of my favorites.

A fun version, Mary Ann, thanks for sharing.

Beautiful Music - lovely video - perfect........


André Rieu - Intermezzo Sinfonico


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ne-LmoKPdiY

Super voice - super song that belongs to Mr E......

Billy Eckstine "I Apologize"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4WN94HShH0

Mary Ann - I remember when that "hillbilly" version of "Temptation" was very popular!  Cute idea, and I'll bet Jo Stafford made a lot of money from that recording!  I loved her voice singing love songs from the 1940's and 1950's.  My favorite is Haunted Heart.  I'll check YouTube and see if it's there.

Ferocious - Beautiful song by Mr. E.  Keep 'em coming . . . I love to listen to music from that era! 

Haunted Heart by Jo Stafford

In the night, though we're apart
There's a ghost of you within my haunted heart
Ghost of you, my lost romance
Lips that laugh, eyes that dance

Haunted heart, won't let me be
Dreams repeat a sweet but lonely song to me
Dreams are dust, it's you who must belong to me
And thrill my haunted heart, be still, my haunted heart

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZYsBN6NRyM

Haunted Heart by Jo Stafford

Keep the likes of this coming too, Marilyne, superb, loved it, thank you

This was/is brilliant, loved it when I was a kid, love it now.....hmmmm

Hey There - Rosemary Clooney

Another singer with a great voice.  Is Rosemary Clooney still living?

Sue

Sue, I think Rosemary Clooney is no longer living but I didn't look up to see when she died.

Do you remember Blue Berry Hill by Fats Domino?  That was one of my favorites when I was in college.  I went to a house party at the beach in my freshman year and we danced to Blue Berry Hill several times a day!

Rammel, I'll never forget Fats Domino and Blueberry Hill.  My later to be husband and I were just 2 college students who went to the beach during spring break in 1956--and Fats' big hit was Blueberry Hill.  We spent hours dancing to that song out on the deck and on the beach.  We found our "thrill" at Pawley's Island, South Carolina!

Sue

Nice memory Sue.

Here's a super song that some members may remember.............bliss...

"That Sunday, That Summer" Nat King Cole


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAuPoFRugsM

Thanks for the link to Nat King Cole's song.  He had a great voice and I loved to dance with my hubby to his ballads.

Sue

Last night we watched an old World War II era movie on TCM, called Stage Door Canteen, 1942. The quality of the film and the sound was poor, but it was fun to see people dancing to the music of the Big Bands of that era.  I liked this song, Sleep Baby Sleep, in Your Jeep, by Guy Lombardo and his Orchestra.

Marilyne, I don't remember that song from my youth and I didn't recognize the girl singer.  I liked Guy Lombardo.  I liked Kenny Rogers (?) singing "Frankie and Johnny" but I'm not going to hunt for it now!
