- Smile (From Charles Chaplin's "Modern Times" - 1936)
with Judy Garland
Smile (Charles Chaplin)
Smile,
Though your heart is aching
Smile,
Even though it's breaking,
When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by
If you smile
Through your fears and sorrow, smile
And maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through for you.
Light up your face with gladness,
Hide ev'ry trace of sadness,
Altho' a tear may be ever so near,
That's the time you must keep on trying,
Smile,
What's the use of crying,
You'll find that life is still worhwhile,
If you just smile. - เพลง

Who here still listening to this MAJESTIC MASTERPIECE in 2024 ....lets go JUDY!!! 😍
You have great taste you beautiful lady ❤
She was asking us to smile while her eyes were fighting tears. The essence of the song, only Judy can accomplish that.
It's the only way to sing this song. Depending on how it's sung, it can sound preachy or it can be a song about wanting nothing more in life than to be happy and spread happiness through the darkest of times.
Well said!
That she did. 😭
So true. She was a fine artist. May she rest in peace. 🙏🏻
You can clearly hear in this magnificent rendition of the classic song, "Smile" by Judy Garland, why she and Karen Carpenter are equally the 2 greatest-ever female singers of popular music! Both had the incomparable ability to not only bring out from deep within themselves the extreme sadness of the lyrics in a song, but also (along with Marilyn McCoo) to enunciate song lyrics better than any other female singer of popular music! Having said that, Nat King Cole's outstanding rendition of this song remains to this day the single best version of this great song and my personal favorite version!
I just want to hug her close and tell her everything's going to be okay. The greatest female performer ever, in my opinion. She could do it all.
I know, right?? In many ways she was strong, but then she had such a vulnerability like a 7 year old little girl. I have so much compassion for her. Just a loving lady who did the very best she could and to her it seemed never enough.
lyn, THE greatest performer, male or female. Nobody could touch an audience like Judy. She could make you laugh with her tremendous sense of humor. Then rip your heart out with her next song. She touched people like no one else. Plus she had a mesmerizing presence that just pulled her audience in, as though they were wrapping their arms around her, and they didn't want to let go.
Amen, she was the best💔🙏💫✨👼🏻✨💫🙏💔
The trouble was things weren't okay for her
She could stand toe to toe with Sinatra, the only one.
Watching this for the millionth time to let Judy remind me that I don't have to choose between the hurt in me and the smile I wish to give; I can acknowledge both. This performance understands you and holds you. Not by music and word alone, but by being delivered to you by a human soul that understands pain.
Judy Garland and Nat King Cole sing this song better than anyone else. Judy's emotion is so heartfelt here what a performance.
So moving, so stunning. But, remember, if not for Charlie Chaplin there would be no song.
So many singers today belt out songs so loudly like they're going to bust their pipes and all the endless vocal runs like they have a snake caught in their throat.
Garland is a master class in true feeling in straight pure singing without all the bells and whistles. Volume that isnt jarring but stirring. Powerful but internal, not external.
Absolutely. A true talent doesn't need to warble, trill or run scales. Judy used her voice and emotion to bring us music like none other.
She understands that she's not singing to show off how well she *can* sing. She sings in service of the song. To communicate its message.
Well said. Hers and Nat Cole's versions are clean, unadulterated and touching.
There is just something that very few ARTISTS can convey these days, like Judy Garland. To me, I can FEEL her emotional, turbulent, heartbreak and pain, that makes me want to cry for her, the World, and the unfairness of it all. Then she can makes me BELIEVE, she, I, and the World can smile, and keep on gently, persisting through it all, and we will be positive and get there. What a genius!
Catherine Blair Yeah she knows how to perform this song...... I agree with you.
+Catherine Blair I think part of authenticity of artists like this is due to the fact that Judy here is clearly singing to herself, almost oblivious to the audience, as though this is the same performance she would give in private at home in front of the mirror. Everything today is produced for the masses, forsaking the individual. She wanted to believe this, she needed to believe this song, but just ... couldn't for some reason.
+Christopher Johnson That is so true! Whenever I hear her sing, I feel as if she relating her own personal life story and laying all her emotions bare that her audience can relate to as if they too are reliving the same life experiences as the great Judy Garland.
Catherine Blair
Catherine Blair that’s why she was the world’s greatest entertainer of the 20th century. When she sang it was her being her and that’s what made her genuine. When she had her weekly series back in 1963-64, CBS gave her a huge trailer for her dressing room and comfort. They producers hung a sign on her door that read simply, “The Legend”. She just wasn’t a living legend, she was “THE LEGEND”. That alone speaks volumes. Thank goodness for TH-cam and dvd and cds that keeps her memory and talent alive from future generations to marvel at. With lackluster singers today that use every technological trick in the book to sound good, the younger generation will see what real talent is and what great singer Judy Garland was. Many are floored when they stumble upon her clips and see this tiny woman with the greatest voice of all time alone on stage mesmerizing her audiences. lol we have great taste don’t we?! 😊👍🏻
No one delivered a song like Judy Garland!
True. But Lana's pretty good at it too.
SO TRUE - There IS a difference between reciting a poem and singing a lyric as Kanye found out when he tried to sing "Mama" by Queen in one of his diatribatic so called concerts of his in Europe... I love the beautiful vocal control as well as the tones she used in this version..YESSMissJudy..
BRUH, James Durante
I like the original with Nat King Cole even better! :D
A lovely rendition - but it's Nat King Cole who brings a tear to my eye.
It's hard to smile when you realize that we are NEVER going to have this caliber of extraordinary talent and charisma ever again.
OH, DON'T YOU KNOW IT!!!!
Allen M. Quinn You can smile knowing we had it.
THAT'S THE TIME YOU MUST KEEP ON TRYING...
We'll meet in the same place.
I know - I feel like crying when I hear the sad melody of this song.
Judy Garland sings a Charlie Chaplin song. Two very special geniuses, collaborating through time.
Charlie Chaplin didn't write the lyrics to the song. he Just wrote the sheet music. It was soundtrack music made for the 1936 movie "Modern Times". Some one else wrote the lyrics to it much later. Judy Garland, Nat King Cole, Sammy Davis Jr, Jimmy Durante, and Michael Jackson all sung this song.
@@jamesbehrje4279 I like the original with Nat King Cole best! It was a very smart choice by Charly Chaplin to let it sing by Cole's velvet voice! :D
@@MusikPiratCH I don't know if I ever heard it. I'm sure it's good though because Nat King Cole was a great singer. I always liked the one Jimmy Durante did because of his funny new England old timey accent. Another reason I like this version is that version was one of my mom's favorite songs, may she rest in peace.
@@jamesbehrje4279 You’re absolutely right, John Turner and Geoffrey Parsons wrote the lyrics♥️ It’s a beautiful song and will live on forever long after we’re all gone, it’s a classic🙏
Is it ironic this made me cry? Wonderful
Micheal McCann That’s her magic. Her talent was limitless and her voice brought forth emotions that no other performer could. I think many fans expect and welcome the release of tears that are bottled up in all of us. There really is no explaining why her voice touched so many of us deep down. Lol I love taking that ride every time I hear her sing!
We'll meet in the same place.
Always. Wonderful 😍
Not now. Especially with what's going on in the world now! Got a bit teary eyed!
This is the only time I saw my mother weep
I was a very odd Millennial child: I loved the Golden Era of movies and my favorite actress was Judy. She was so easy to relate to. She didn't put on the pretense of being famous or anything special- she just was. Her voice always brings me back to watching her in my mom's sewing room: the hum of the sewing machine, the puff of the iron, the quiet cursing when she messed up. Now that she's gone, Judy speaks for her in this song. I've cried so many years in my life that I know they are but a temporary relief for very permanent pain. The only way to lessen the blow is to choose happiness, choose to smile.
Thank you, Judy. I hope you can smile now without tears in your eyes. I'm trying.
The crescendo of this song, controlled by Judy's voice almost exclusively, is nothing short of stunning.
very true indeed
There is little to add to what's been said here by others, except how lucky we are to have this stunning performance captured in real-time, in front of us, as though we were standing just a few feet away from her. The camera does little except move in and out - there are no cuts, no fancy angles, just a single shot, capturing Judy's brilliance in one continuous take.
We'll meet in the same place.
What you added to what was already said is so true .. Talent .. Warmth .. Need no production gimmicks .. It is just there .. TgT
So emotional 😪
my life is very very very very hard but still I'm smiling. :)
:(
Now I'm smiling😂😂😂😂love you judy❤❤❤
A superb example of Garland's mastery of layering. With breathtaking candor she says: yes, I've known sadness and I'm singing about smiling. Then she inscribes the lyrics on our hearts. She is saying: smiling through pain is as difficult, perhaps, as your hearing me sing this song. But the smiling...and the hearing... are WORTH DOING. Note also how each time a lyric repeats, she gives it a different point of view. 'Tears' the first time are a child's. 'Tears' the second time are hers--and ours.
RIP Judy Garland ⚘⚘
She takes my breath away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 42 years later she can do that to me and many more and if you want to talk about some one else then get off here this is about Judy Garland.Rest in peace you are truly missed Barb.......
I've just cried my eyes out watching this.
Judy's performance here is most likely from the early 1960's on her TV Show. It is an incredibly special rendition that only Judy could pull off. Right to her untimely death in 1969, she always put something extra behind every song that made each performance memorable and unique. RIP Judy
I was gonna say they had some small microphones in the 30s. I knew this wasnt the 30s.
Incomparable. This song is supposed to make you feel like smiling, only Garland can bring you to tears with it. Brava!
Her emotional "genius" was so vast and advanced that a lot of it escapes the attention and notice of ordinary people.
This is the song of her life. She went through so much in her life and had to grow up too fast plus the drug problems ,she got hooked because the media thought she was a better performer with them. From the time she was a kid until she died.
Shannonm75 THIS SONG DEFINITELY REPRESENTS JUDY GARLAND'S LIFE...SADLY MISSED..
Poignant comment. We'll meet in the same place.
By the media you mean her awful stage mom and the MGM quack doctors.
There will NEVER be another like JUDY!!!
There will never be another of any of these great star's, they are gone for good. Today you dont know if it is a he or a she, they are tatoo'ed and buried in surgery almost every where, they are not like women from the past.....
What a talented lady Judy Garland was. It's a shame what Hollywood did to her.
Definitely coerced but an addict's an addict. I''m one.
A Beautiful Legend ❤️❤️
Best version of this song.
Yes! 🙋🏼♀️
Michael Jackson‘s version is also very dramatic.
Best Version Ever
I remember my mother (of blessed memory) singing this to me when I was a little girl...I think of Mama whenever I hear this song. 🥲
May she rest in peace 🙏
@@williammichael2156 Thank you...
Who still listening to this beautiful song in 2021?
2024
I am in tears...my older sister used to sing this to me when I was really little after my nightmares....I miss her so much. This song used to make me feel better all of the time. It's the first time I have listened to it in nearly 20 years. BEST SONG EVER!
50 plus years, and I still miss her. Always will.
I remember the day she died. My mom told me, and I got a hollow feeling in my stomach. I still remember that moment as if it yesterday.
She makes me glad when she sings smile. Kind regards worldcall.
La voix des anges !
Such a darling person. Beautiful rendition. She should have gotten the oscar for A Star is Born. You can feel her vulnerability here. And her face is enchanting the way she sings and feels the song. She was so much more interesting in her looks than just a pretty face.
quelle voix, superble heureuse d'avoir connu cette époque
She couldn't hide every trace of sadness. RIP Judy.
Just watched Cruella. Although I was fascinated by the song, I didn't bother to look for it because I was busy. Just a few minutes ago, I was free and so I looked for this song and I was stunned to learn that Judy Garland sang this particular version.
I always pictured her as her youthful self. Young Dorothy. For some reason though, I felt sad knowing that an older Judy sang this. It seemed to me like she grew decades since I first watched The Wizard of Oz ten years ago, while I only grew ten years.
Cruella was basically a copy-paste of the Joker. They even stole this song.
Uplifting and heartbreaking at the same time and in equal measure.
Chaplin music score 1936. Lyrics written by Turner & Parsons 1954. The blending of 3 artists, two decades apart, collaborating on what's now a nearly timeless song, was one of the 20th century's best artistic chemistry's we'll ever experience.
This song is about the potential of happiness. Regardless of how tough times are we smile to acknowledge the presence of joy. Remember that happiness comes from within not without.
This is real craftsmanship. Her voice is powerful and effortless. The timbre, vibrato and timing are remarkable. What a talent.
What makes her performance so wonderful is that she embodies that tension between sadness and happiness, which is the subject of the song. There is a point at about 2:23 where her demeanor changes slightly, and you can see she is fighting harder (through the song) to remain happy. She doesn’t just sing the song, she becomes the song.
才能あるがゆえの凄絶な人生…😔ジュディ、でも貴女は永遠に私達の心の中に生きているヨ❗☺️
Judy could go from soft & soulful to stormy & passionate within a single song in the most special way, stunning performance of "Smile" from "The Judy Garland Show" an example of why this legendary show should have gone on for many seasons...simply the greatest singer of them all!
Concordo ninguem fes melhor, amo esta estrela.
Very well stated! Though I would disagree about her being the greatest singer - that title belongs to Sinatra, IMHO.
Colleen Stadnick Loving both Garland & Sinatra with all recordings of both revered in my vast vocal collection, hard to pick the ultimate but song for song, comparing performance for performance must personally give hands-down greatest singer of them all title to Garland...rhythm & timing flawless with pathos and passion wide open creating tremendous depth of emotional involvement with lyrics to the maximum, taking lucky listener on the ultimate musical journey of a lifetime, with the most glorious colorful vocal tones richly shading a song ever, Bravo Judy! Recommended viewing "The Judy Garland Show" concert editions in particular for an example of a great artist in flawless stellar form, Cole Porter's "I Am Loved" pure class & "I've Got A Right To Sing The Blues" unforgettable, "Kismet" duet with Vic Damone the ultimate!
Judy é a maior estrela de todos os tempos não me canso de ouvi-la
Quelle Voix Sublime 🎉Judy il n'y en avait QU'UNE au monde !
Une 🌠🎆
My favorite version of this song! Love Judy!!
I adore this woman! Even in after gone so many years. She "feels" everything and sings with the most passion any singer could. I have tons of admiration and compassion for her.
We'll meet in the same place.
Why does this song make me cry?
We'll meet in the same place.
The 75 people who gave this thumbs down have NO taste!!! Judy was the best. they don't make them like her anymore.
This is so perfect right now. My sister is an ICU nurse taking care of covid-19 patients. She's strong, very strong but even she breaks down in tears at everything they are facing at the hospital amidst this crisis. It is not easy to watch so many people die and knowing they can not even see their families one last time is heartbreaking.
Me and my sisters and mother just watched the new Judy Garland movie before things got bad where we are. So I will send this to my sister, the nurse who's birthday is in just a few days time where she will spend it with the patients she is caring for and fellow frontliners and then alone in quarantine at home, in hopes it will brighten her day.
What a time we are living in. Stay strong everyone. Find a way to help in your community in anyway possible. Follow health recommendations to not only reduce illness and death but to help those working so hard and putting their lives on the line trying to manage the situation for us all. A big thank you for all those people doing their part to make things better and not worse. And remember, Smile, every chance you get. Do it in defiance of hopelessness, of the fear and the uncertainty of these times. Do it in rebellion against the beast of chaos, smile a knowing smile though the face before you may only snarl and do not go gentle into that good night, but rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Very good written 😘😘😘
'Do it in rebellion against the beast of chaos, smile a knowing smile'.. Original or borrowed, I don't care, I fucking loved that line.
@@NHWUSuuu :) it's original though I'd have to say inspired by the world outside of myself. But how much of anything we think or say is truly original afterall? It's generally inspired at least in part by our shared human experience(s). So take it it's yours as much as mine ;)
@@NHWUSuuu i should mention that last bit the "rage rage against the dying of the light" is a bit from a poem of Dylan Thomas' poem 'Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night'. If you've never read it in full I highly recommend you do so. It's excellent.
@@caroschuetz7658 Thank you!
Charlie gave us many smiles. He gave us also one of the most beautiful songs ever 😊
One gorgeous lady - and NO one ever did a song justice like Ms. Garland. From time to time I like to think that Liza might stop by to read the comments and see just how much her mother meant to all of us... and that it would make her smile.
Put on a happy face 😊
One of the best, ever!
The best Smile Ever..Nobody sang this like her,
YOU ARE SO RIGHT!!!!! Judy's been my favorite singer since I was 12 years old. I'm 61 now!!!! Almost 50 years!!!!
We'll meet in the same place.
She's never going to leave me alone 😔, whatever she sang meant so much, especially over the rainbow 🌈 🎶 ✨️ 😌, my daddies classic, loved her, went far too soon xxx
That voice always tugs at my heart ❤️!
UNA GRAN CANTANTE Y UNA CANCION MUY BELLA.EPOCA DE ORO.
Un timbre de Voix Unique, une Star 🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆comme on en fait plus !
It's like a mother telling her life story to her children, dun know why I'm tearing up😭
Beautiful song, beautiful voice..
Judy also did a superb version of this song SMILE on the ED SULLIVAN SHOW in 1963
The incomparable Judy Garland ! No one comes close !
This song breaks my heart and I love it.
A beautiful voice for all the ages.... R.I.P. Judy.... You had me at "Somewhere Over the Rainbow".....
yes indeed, she lived those words ...
beautiful.
My face is lit with gladness because I am extremely glad to have the memories. Love is a beautifully sad thing though and hiding that sadness is hard. I will Smile anyway. Thanks for the memories, Bug.
Wonderful sentiment Kate. We'll meet in the same place.
True love isn't das!
Writing this on 10th June 2022 - the 100th anniversary of her birth! What a great, great performer.
Judy + Charlie = perfection
We will never hear great voices like hers!
I'm so in love with this.... 🖤💋
ONE WORD-PERFECTION ❤️
Judy Garland was born to sing this song.
Look how long you've been gone and our hearts are still empty. You will never know how much you touched our lives. GOD rest your weary body, dear Judy. No one will ever come close to your GOD given talent and The Greatest singing Voice known to man. We miss you so much, Judy! xoxoxo
I am very sure that Judy and Nat will sing this wonderful song very often - somewhere oder the rainbow - and Charles will listen with tears in his eyes!
R.I.P. you three will stay for ever in our hearts!
Shes still relevant today
my mom used to sing this to me
We'll meet in the same place.
So beautiful
Oh boy did I enjoy this! She is like a breath of fresh air. What emotions she has! This is why Barbara cannot touch this woman. Her emotions are just raw, along with an impeccable voice. I like hers and Diana's the best. It's not always about all those vocal dynamics, but the authentic emotions that are conveyed.
+classanddignity Well, Barbra had her good moments, and one of the best voices ever. But she has always been too pre-packaged. With her, you're always watching a product. Judy, she's PRESENT.
Wow wusste nicht das sie es gesungen hat 🙏🙏super Song 🙏💕
Judy wonderful
This woman was born to sing and entertain the masses! That’s why she still the greatest even after almost 50 years since she left us. 😊
The old glamour days ARE GONE FOREVER
❤
❤
❤
Wow! Up until this video, I NEVER realized how much her and Liza looked and sounded a like!!!! Two greats that shall Never be forgotten!!
Nossa eterna Doroty! 👏👏👏
Beautiful. Breaks my heart in a way. Always has. So much love in a simple song.
Written by the most multi-talented entertainer of the 20th century - Charlie Chaplin.
With help from his co-composer and arranger, Dave Raksin. The song words came years later, with some tweaking of the melody. Compare videos of MODERN TIMES like the last 2 minutes of the film. (Some folks even trace it to a love duet in TOSCA.)
This is how it’s done, period!
Happy Birthday, Judy.
Knowing of her suicide attempts, her singing this song is especially sad
One of a kind. A true legend.
The GREATEST -EVER!!! Completely HUMAN!!!
beautiful!!!!
Love the way she walks back svelte figure & sequined dress to piano. 0:41 transitioning to solution; rolls eyes up at "sun come shining through" 0:58; hear how she turns the 5th 1:05, "tear every so near" (leans in to mic) 1:32 followed by head-nodding resolve; & Judy's operatic ending; gosh she has pipes!
#CharlieChaplin #JudyGarland
Catherine Blair....your comments are so right! I've been apart of the Hollywood community since the 1950's, first through my parents, and then in my own work, and I can honestly say that no performer has EVER touched a heart, including mine, like the late, great Judy Garland!
We'll meet in the same place.
Awwwww the beautiful wonderful Judy ......lovely lovely lovely
+Doreen Fawcett yup yup yup!
RIP beautiful lady. What a wonderful way to sing this song. Has to be the best.
