WAYNE IS ONE OF THE TOP ENTERTAINERS OF ALL TIME ALONG WITH FRANK,DEAN,TONY BENNETT…AND WHAT A GREAT INSTRUMENT PLAYER,,,I HAVE SEEN HIM AT LEAST 40 TIMES FROM ARIZONA,ILLINOIS TO VEGAS…A TRUE AMERICAN TREASURE
You can hear the beginning of Wayne's voice starting to go in this video, yet this is still 5 years before the Stardust signed him to a 10 year 25 million a year contract, so he was still filling big show rooms. I've seen him as recently as 2016 and he's gone back to a lounge act with hardly any voice, but he's still Wayne Newton and for that 90 minutes you forget about the voice and just see The Midnight Idol himself. Not to mention he's a super nice guy.
Saw him in the early,early days at the worlds fair in Texas..1969 I think...my friend and I were the only two people in the audience...He soon filled the place up with his fabulous voice😍
there was an unbelievable performance of wayne doing he ain't heavy from when he was on The Merv Griffin Show one night. The best he ever did this song, unfortunately the video was taken down.
I miss seeing you with my mom we love you so much a long journey with you thank you Wayne you know what I'm talking about I will come and see you soon at the flamingo Mary Rotars daughter Cyndi Rotar love you
It sounds like recent video I've seen he still will get up on those high notes but not really hold them as he did in this video from 1994. It sounds to me like he's holding that high A & even high B or several counts like two measures on the musical scale but back in 1994 he was only 52 years old!. He has to have some voice left over or he wouldn't do it at all
awwww...this is hurting my ears... and his toupee is awful. I admire his career and all he's done for Vegas and charities. At least this was before his plastic surgery that went very wrong. Too bad he just couldn't age naturally.
His smile lights up the room. ❤️
Good thing his smile does because his singing isn't. God awful.

M.D.A thank you for the video of Wayne Newton i love him i love that song You've got a friend
He sang this song , He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother. On the Mike Douglas show in the 1970s and it was terrific.
Yeah... but here it sucked!

This man can still sing amazingly perhaps he is at a level your ears are not fine tuned to hear. I salute you Dear Sir Wayne Newton 🕯
And you are too much of a fan. Reality is that his voice is totally shot. Even his speaking voice is going. So get your head out of the sand!
Can't sing at all. terrible. Wore his vocal cords out years ago.

M.D.A. Thanks for this upload, But I am patiently and respectfully waiting on some more tap dancing performances.
Love my Wayne!

My friend
His voice was going at this time. Now it's completely shot.
No, he still has a beautiful singing voice.
Yes
Lindo!
Yea
Horrific and heartbreaking. A shadow of his former self.
Wayne Newton is a friend of Muscular Dystrophy Telethon
This is almost a parody of himself.

He’s lost his voice.
Vegas is hard on the throat, not to mention the over 20k performances he'd probably already sang by this point in his career.
Yes@@Will_DiGiorgio
@Will_DiGiorgio yes not to mention 2 shows a night 7 days a week😊
Sad. especially when compared to his earlier MDA performances. the man can't sing now.
This is about the time that Wayne turned into a middle aged Polynesian woman with damaged vocal chords. I miss the tragedy that was the MDA Telethon.
Imagine and all that and still 4 years to go before he signs a contract for the highest paid residency in Las Vegas...
awwww...this is hurting my ears... and his toupee is awful. I admire his career and all he's done for Vegas and charities. At least this was before his plastic surgery that went very wrong. Too bad he just couldn't age naturally.
So embarrassing. He used to be really great. Sad.
Your embarrassing 😳 He is still amazing and I salute him.
