I spent half an hour looking for this guy on the internet. I finally just typed in “old singer with big nose and hat” and found out his name is Jimmy Durante. I’ll never forget his name again.
I’ve never seen this video clip . I’m glad I stumbled across it. Thank you lovely people out there in TH-camLand. Thank You For Posting….. now I’m crying….
Many thanks for sharing this little gem! I had a mad crush in Jimmy when I was a kid. Still do. When people asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I'd tell them I wanted to be a Durante Girl. That was what he called the chorus of ladies on his tv show. I used to sneak out of bed and hide behind the couch, so I could watch Jimmy. I wasn't fooling anyone. Mama and Daddy knew I was watching Jimmy, and changed my bedtime so I wouldn't miss his show. I miss those days. I miss those people. RIP, all, and thanks so very very very much for the magic, music, and memories.
It's art that made the mold It's the difference between the big and the small It doesn't have to be witty or smart Just as long as it comes from the heart It doesn't have to be classic or rock Just as long as it comes from the heart Just put more heart into you voice And you'll become the people's choice Just make up your mind from the start That the song's gotta come from the heart Just make up your mind from the start That the song's gotta come from the heart Don't be afraid you'll make your grade Why you can sing as good as Bing That's why I say when you start That the song's gotta come from the heart It doesn't have to be witty or smart Long as it comes from the heart It doesn't have to be classic or rock Long as it comes from the heart I'll give 'em that I'll give 'em this I'll strut away Boy! You can't miss! Just put a star on my chart They won't need this anymore! Cause the song's gonna come from the heart Don't work cheap! On opening nights, your name in lights Why we won't stop, 'til you reach the top We'll order our meal a la carte That's expensive! If the song comes from the heart We'll be tremendous! If the song comes from the heart Can't call up Gable If the song comes from the heart! H-e-a-r-t!
I think that your source material for the lyrics may be incorrect. Whereas the lyrics you found say: "It doesn't have to be classic or 'rock' " I think that Durante sings: "It doesn't have to be classic or art" [I could believe: "... classical art", as well.] I mean, the term "rock & roll" wasn't in use 'till the mid 1950's, & this clip is from 1947.
The best ever....Only wish they were here today...They are probably turning over in their graves when they see today's ( so called performers ) no talent junk!!
it's actually "...classic or art..." so that it rhymes with heart. But with his Manhattan accent (art becomes "aht") and running together the "r" from "or" it does come close to sounding like "rock."

I love how he imitates Durante towards the end.
Jimmy Durante was an amazing talent! No entertainers like him around anymore.
Frank Sinatra loved Jimmy and said he was the sweetest man he ever knew
Frank Sinatra + Jimmy Durante =True Love ❤️❤️❤️

Im 68 and was fortunate to grow up watching both of them. The chemistry between them is so awesome. They're gone now but the music will live on.
Jimmy Durante was an entertainer before my time.I did not know he could play the piano. He was multi talented.
I love it….. “I could use a longer piano”….. what a HOOT
I really miss Jimmy Durante....good night Mrs. Calabash, wherever you are!
I'd like to thank Frosty the Snowman and It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World for giving me a lift to this number.
Adding a smile - two great show biz names doing their thing.
My two favorite artists together
There will never be another Durante!
Never indeed. Plastic surgeons exist.
That is True Brotherly Love.
Это самый настоящий крутяк!!!!!!
I’ve never seen this video clip . I’m glad I stumbled across it. Thank you lovely people out there in TH-camLand. Thank You For Posting….. now I’m crying….
This 68 year old says thank you!
They'll holla brave-o...
These two were fans of one another. Frank even changed the lyrics to "How About You?" to include "James" Durante.
Love that time period. Such entertainers!
I saw the last part of this back in 1973 in "That's Entertainment". It's taken me since then to see this song in full! Thanks!
Fun Fact: Spike Bulldog's voice and Brooklyn accent was inspired by Durante's.
Such a lovely musical number, not many put as big of a smile on my face.
How can this type of art fill a hole that nothing today can ever fill?
Jimmy & Frank opposites in looks, of course, but both made you want to listen!🎹🎹🎼🎼🎧🎧🎧🎧
Jimmy was adoreable
Love this scene...
Absolutely delightful!!!! They’re wonderful and so is the movie.
"You can sing as good as Bing,,,: One of the great movies! "It Happened In Brooklyn"

Brilliant at the time thanks for sharing❤
I LOVE this song!!
Magnífico aporte; alegra la vida.
Thank you.
БОЖЕ!!!!ФРЕНКИ ПЕЛ НА РУССКОМ!!!!Я В АУТЕ!!!!
Ain’t that Nothin’!! I love these guys!
Two Legends ❤
There's a reason his voice was used twice in the soundtrack "Sleepless in Seattle" - in his own way, he's all about love.
That's great ❤️ очи чёрные очи страстные очи жгучие,
КАК ЛУБЛЮ Я ВАС, КАК БОЮС Я ВАЗ❤️❤️
Can you hear any American accent in those guys' Russian?
غناء من القلب .. اوووه جيمي دورنات

That's right
I have a copy of this VHS!
Gentlemen!!!
It's art that made the mold
It's the difference between the big and the small
It doesn't have to be witty or smart
Just as long as it comes from the heart
It doesn't have to be classic or rock
Just as long as it comes from the heart
Just put more heart into you voice
And you'll become the people's choice
Just make up your mind from the start
That the song's gotta come from the heart
Just make up your mind from the start
That the song's gotta come from the heart
Don't be afraid you'll make your grade
Why you can sing as good as Bing
That's why I say when you start
That the song's gotta come from the heart
It doesn't have to be witty or smart
Long as it comes from the heart
It doesn't have to be classic or rock
Long as it comes from the heart
I'll give 'em that
I'll give 'em this
I'll strut away
Boy! You can't miss!
Just put a star on my chart
They won't need this anymore!
Cause the song's gonna come from the heart
Don't work cheap!
On opening nights, your name in lights
Why we won't stop, 'til you reach the top
We'll order our meal a la carte
That's expensive!
If the song comes from the heart
We'll be tremendous!
If the song comes from the heart
Can't call up Gable
If the song comes from the heart!
H-e-a-r-t!
Thank you!

JIMMY DURANTE: el feo encantador.
No feo
Ugly?
No way.
Jimmy is adorable!
And one of the sweetest men ever.
The best ever....Only wish they were here today...They are probably turning over in their graves when they see today's ( so called performers ) no talent junk!!
At :55 Durante sings, ' it doesn't matter if it's classic or rock...' Does he mean rock and roll? Did they have that genre in 1947?
it's actually "...classic or art..." so that it rhymes with heart. But with his Manhattan accent (art becomes "aht") and running together the "r" from "or" it does come close to sounding like "rock."
@@curtlewis2795 Thank you. That was really confusing for a moment.
What's the russian folk song after Ochie Chernie called?
This song called "Korobeiniki"( on eng- bagman), by Vadim Kosin.
большое спасибо за ответ! я искал эта песня! я никогда думал, что я бы найти она.
@@Graf_Ka-Ka это же, вроде, «Эх, распошол!»
I discovered him in a Looney Tunes cartoon...
Roger Daltrey put it another way: It’s the singer not the song, that makes the music move along.

If the song comes from the heart!
👇 👇 👇
Heart!
This scene must have inspired Seth McFarlane it has total family guy vibes
Just two italians singing.....
"You could sing as good as pink"
Bing.
Not Pink.
Bing, as in Bing Crosby, the actor/singer.
Blue eyes singing Russian music, wild stuff
That’s a shnozzle 🫶
0:57 What’s an example of classical rock from 1947?
The words there are actually "classic or art" I thought it was rock too, until I listened closer :)
@@oldclassics1923 thanks!
Can anyone name the international songs they sing?
the first is dark eyes (ochi chyornye) i'm still looking for the second one
@ Эх, распошол))
А наши не смотрят?
Why does Danny Devito sound like Jimmy Durante?
What does he sing at 1:51
He says 'Let's take the world's great love songs..'
@@DavidBensonActor I mean the song which he sings couple seconds later
