I love how he combines two phrases into one without a break. For example at 1:25 he combines the phrases "...that bloom in May" and "So if it's rainin" without a breath.
A born showman with a great voice. I still remember the first time I heard him on the radio; my parents were arguing over whether he was male or female because the DJ said his name was Wayne but he sounded like a woman to them.
His performances at this age were stunning, the silky tone of his voice as sterling as a Harry James solo. No longer a kid, he was transforming into the consummate vocalist for all time.
What a performer, what a voice! I love how he "accelerates" in this performance, if he had asked for another "one more time", the roof would have lifted!
Just want to put my 2 cents in here, in addition to his great voice, Wayne is an exceptional guitar player. Check out his instrumental rendition of Spanish Eyes sometime. Be prepared to have your socks blown off!
commercial style and performance cheesiness aside, this is one of the greatest pop voices of all time. i mean its just a bullseye. every single note is perfectly sculpted, his time sense is impeccable and inventive, and that easy power throughout the whole thing is just amazing. its just a crazy amount of talent. he lost it in the 70s, but damn his voice was special in this period.
Totally agree on all points. As I've gotten older, I've come to appreciate the 1960s-era Wayne, and really admire his talent and the musicality in his movements. Pure entertainment ----- and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.
Wayne Newton is not a transgendered person! Stop with the comments. He was only 20 in this, and my theory is he went through puberty late. His voice was really very good and mature in his 30s. Now, though, because he didn't take care of himself he can't really sing anymore.
W.N. was born female and will die female! It is not possible to change ones sex! Costumes, surgeries and hormones do not change the sex of a human being they all together successfully produce a 100% FAKE, lying, deceiving human being that has been so called married to 2 Adams Apple MEN! Go take a closer look now! Start with Adams Apple wife # 1.
Bottom line I never ever cared for 'what's his name?' Absolutely the most overrated nauseating entertainers of his generation which last way longer than should've.
He looks like a female dressed up as a man, that's exactly what I see, I'm not saying he is, all I'm saying is I've seen many lesbians that when dressed up as a male with male clothes and hairstyle they look like Wayne Newton, make of that what you will. The type of fans he has would never spot it, they'd see a cute little school boy type, they'd never think " why does a man in his mid to late 20s look like a 12 or 13 year old boy. But a woman in her mid 20s dressed up as a man with male clothes and hair looks just like a 12 or 13 year old boy
Nicky Depaola - Agreed, and while there is the "transgender agenda" that needs to be exposed ((and full of Hollywood entertainers and other elites that reportedly continue to transsgender their children from birth) we also need to keep in mind that there are people who are genuine "intersex.". They were born that way not bc of hormones goven to mother prenatally,or via any other artificial menas. Wayne Newton is a powerhouse talent and a delightful entertainer and human being, from what I see. We walk a fine line as Christians and others of faith while trying to uphold things as God intended, without breaking commandments and other Biblical teaching regarding our judgment and treatment of others.
I'm sorry, but she has a better lower and higher range than he does, at least here. He stopped singing this way. As the story goes, it was because Johnny Carson kept making fun of him.
There's always been singers that fill the gap,😎 they'll never appeal to the younger generation so they sing songs that your grandparents like, dead people's songs
He went from a baby faced entertainer shown here to Mr. Las Vegas himself, quite a transformation indeed. He looked like a tough guy as he got older, must have been the hair dye and the mustache.
He's certainly an odd looking dude, I can fully understand why he went ballistic with the plastic surgery changing his facial features beyond all recognition
Always loved Wayne Newton such a lovely voice
Great voice ! Personality , a showman!
I love how he combines two phrases into one without a break. For example at 1:25 he combines the phrases "...that bloom in May" and "So if it's rainin" without a breath.
Sinatra learned to sing long phrases with minimal breathing from Tommy Dorsey's trombone.
@@Charlie1967 Thank you for the clarification Charlie. I edited out that part just now. Don't want to spread misinformation. 😃

Flawless! And he is adorable!
Wayne is one of the Greats like Elvis Jerry Lee Lewis Little Richard etc
UPLIFTING I FEEL FINE FROM THIS MUSIC...WAYNE FOREVER

SOOO YOUNG & SOOO GOOD...IT LASRED FOR YEARS!!!
Absolutely right in the pocket 🎶🔔💗
DAM.....THIS CAT CAN SING
I know you must have heard of Wayne Newton before seeing this video.
He was 22 in 1964. Back when he had a VOICE!!
Jolson would be proud .
This is the Wayne Newton I remember. He got up in Las Vegas and totally changed. Using hair dey, cosmetic surgery.
He?
@@Potaville … Yes, he.
She has a beautiful voice!
What a performer, what a voice! I love how he "accelerates" in this performance, if he had asked for another "one more time", the roof would have lifted!
Heard of Wayne Newton before but didn't know he was this good.
Perfect pitch.
I was 5 when i would see wayne on tv. I loved to watch him sing and have always been a fan. I love you wayne.
I love wayne newton (from bangkok)
Just want to put my 2 cents in here, in addition to his great voice, Wayne is an exceptional guitar player. Check out his instrumental rendition of Spanish Eyes sometime. Be prepared to have your socks blown off!
Beautiful. But I can see why people who first heard him thought he was a woman.
imagine him on today's singing competitions.
Well at least Wayne's singing voice was great back then, unlike today.
I remember seeing this episode back in 1966. I was 13 years old at the time and thought Wayne Newton was marvelous.
dudde, this is cool
Always liked Wayne...he can really sing and he's a great entertainer!!!
🎉
Wayne desde la primera vez que te escuché cantar me enamoró tu voz tan exquisita y jovial.Te amo Wayne🎵♩🎶🎵♩🎶🎖😃🍦🎧🎷🎸🎹🎙🎺🎻🎤🎼📻🕪

I wonder what really made him lose his voice

All true.
@@dannybrown2857 Probably age .....
@@StevenTorrey but look at Frank his voice got better with age
Say what you will about his appearance, he sang Somewhere better than Streisand.
Nick dipaolo brought me here
Most of the famous singers are sopranos. It is apparent Wayne had honed his craft way back when.
His?

Heard he was intersex, and if so, not anyone's doing but God's.
He was 22 not 20. Facts please.

That's not reason he did 1000th of show not to mention 2 shows a nighr in Vegas this takes toll on rhe voice
He looks like Beverly D'Angelo in a suit. Is he gay? Not that there's anything wrong with that.
He? Uh NO!
Nick Di Paulo brought me here
Same here. Now I can't get this out of my head since he brings it up every episode of his podcast
Its a very dicficult situation.
DID I ?
Sally Kohn, that you???!!!?!?
Bottom line I never ever cared for 'what's his name?' Absolutely the most overrated nauseating entertainers of his generation which last way longer than should've.
Thanks Nick
I did my homework. lmao
Hello ... Could Post The Video Of Mason Williams Singing In The Ed Sullivan The Song: "Classical Gas" From 1969 ... Thanks
Was he drinking Estrogen for breakfast?
Wayne's a halfise...
That's funny
janderson2000 .... NO, he’s not. Now, go harp on Frankie Vallie. I personally know him. He is all man!

All of you nobody's like to put down someone who's success you will never match. Avg shnooks. Go watch a movie on your DVR.
Wow he sounds like Miley Cyrus here.
Better than that no talent jerk affleck.
M.C. is 100% MALE!
How He sings this song so beautifully.
And to think he did some doowop and early rock n roll with his brother
What's to say??? WOW
Wow I was only 4yrs old in Australia then . Now 62 & I don't remember hearing his songs before, he's fantastic.
GREAT ENTERTAINER !! ....WHy, do we care of people's sexuality so much ?? WE are ALL " Creatures " with SPIRITS !!

Thank you ! I saw the man in 1999 in Reno ( He's a BIG CAT too ! )..you said it best..HE is a POWERHOUSE TALENT !! God bless '
This IS A PERFECT PERFORMANCE ! ( I too make my life as an entertainer ! NICKYDEPAOLA.COM
This is KD Lang. You cant fool me.
Spankyblack69 first thing I thought too.
@@jblflatpicker Me too
I'm sorry, but she has a better lower and higher range than he does, at least here. He stopped singing this way. As the story goes, it was because Johnny Carson kept making fun of him.
@@JoystickVersusMachine until wayne put a stop on him
David Osterberg Carson could do some very low class things, from my understanding. He treated Joan Rivers especially poorly.
Shame on you guys for doubting Wayne's maleness. Here's another great singer: th-cam.com/video/wa1e49KLXNU/w-d-xo.html
That was KD Lang performance in her early days!!
He looks like k.d lang!
Love His Voice!
No offense but to me it sounds k.d. lang...love both
Holy shit, he was 22 years old here? i thought he was like 13-14
Lol this was in 1965 or later
Whoa he looks so young, this is like Fetus Wayne! :D
He was 22 here
his breath intake is the most subtle and huge, and he was huge too!
Man has class!!
Very nice. He was a cutie.
You are an idiot.
Look what I posted above (you are) which is correct. As if you never make mistakes when typing or writing.
Chaz Bono sure can sing
There's always been singers that fill the gap,😎 they'll never appeal to the younger generation so they sing songs that your grandparents like, dead people's songs
Uauuuu👍🙌👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Boy has his voice gotten bad over the years. Boy watching Ed Sullivan on Sun night brings back a lot of memories.
he could have easily song songs like Michael jackson...can you imagine? lol
Ed Sullivan really looked like Nixon.
He and KD Lang can pass for twins.
I did my homework Professor DiPaolo
Keep coming back to this. Was Wayne born female or intersex? He's a bloody woman.
Bravo!
"He" "???She... She is amazing.
GREAT ENTERTAINER /SINGER !! I saw " WAYNE " in 1996 never thought about sexuality ' I just remember a SUPERB PERFORMANCE !! Big Cat too !
Add long hair and I would think it's a girl.
Scott - if u added a dick then it might be a man.
He went from a baby faced entertainer shown here to Mr. Las Vegas himself, quite a transformation indeed. He looked like a tough guy as he got older, must have been the hair dye and the mustache.
If Rosie O'Donnell and Ellen Degeneres had a baby
He looks just like a girl i went to high school with.
and you sound like a dumb ass
100% Female wearing a suit! VOMIT!
THIS Human being is FANTASTIC Male or Female !! { Nicky D ..east bay !
He should of gone full Al Jolson impersonation here, all blacked up, down on one knee, pulling faces, waving arms around etc
I love K.D. Lang
Its 1966 .
Nick DiPaolo sings it better
THE GREAT WAYNE NEWTON NO WONDER HIS IDOL WAS BOOBY DARIN
😀
was she out as a lesbian when she did this? hard to believe an adult audience would have taken her as straight.
Hey dummy he was a born male. You wish you could have his success.
@@34thstreetman He? Uh NO!
@@Potaville What are you some kind of millenial with no brain?
@@34thstreetman No I know a man from a woman! Seems you do not. That is a woman with a suit on! Open your eyes and ears! LOL!
He's certainly an odd looking dude, I can fully understand why he went ballistic with the plastic surgery changing his facial features beyond all recognition
Bugs Bunny sings this too.
Looks like KD Lang! 😯
Perhaps the first transgender???
Great Voice. Be happy he/she/AH-64 sang like that.
Back in time they'd just castrate some boys to get those high notes.
Nick was right
Is this a woman!? Imma have to say YES SHE IS!!!
100% correct!
He looks like kd lang
Nick Dipaolo brought me here
Is Wayne Newton a biological female?
He should have done this in Black Face
Karl Malden's nose
Why tf would you say that
LMAO good one
Wayne Newton is a woman, transitioned to a man, so neat!
I didn't know KD Lang has been around so long.
The gaydar is totally off the scale here.
Jolson meets Elvis; as good as (and in some ways) better than both! Fantastic.
Clare Balding impersonator
This is a woman
I didn't know he had a twin sister
Is this KD Lang?
had to see a video of him singing for me to believe it wasn't a woman lmao
Thats just one of those guys you want to punch in the face...... Is that wrong?
