Listen to Miss Powell sing Are Maria every day for two years. You've helped with anxiety, sister with Cancer now with this Virus. We were almost neighbors in CT.
No true movie stars anymore...no decent, sweet movies that lift your spirit and you can watch with a clean conscience...God Bless You..thanks for posting 😊
Hi Jenny Green! I'm grateful to hear from you, and I'm an enormous JP fan! I agree with you that in our lifetime we'll not ever see such performances again. Makes me sad, but Thank God, we still have video! I wish you'd take a look at my many other performances which star Jane! Thank you once more for your kind comments! varadero
A couple of years I was up in my mother's attic and I found an old life magazine. On the front cover was a picture of Jane Powell holding a fluffy kitten. I couldn't believe I have this picture. She is my favorite singer. When I feel down I listen to her sing. She is the best amongst all the singers. The irony of this magazine is that the date of the magazine is my birthday date. I wish I had found it earlier, I would have brought it to a concert I saw her in , I would have asked her to sign it. I'm sure she would have been thrilled to see it. A piece of history.
Esiste chi canta ancora per onorare Dio e la sua Santissima Madre Maria. Sono fortunatamente mamma di una cantante lirica. Lei non canta per il.mondo ma per la gloria di Dio.
***** Hi Joanie N, I'm so excited that this brought joy to your mother! I suspect there are hundreds of "Jane" clips up here, but I'm personally responsible for about 12 of them. Please check them out, show them to your mother, and send her my best wishes! Naturally my grateful thanks to you for writing! Sincerely, varadero
Hi kathy 2trips, I'm the poster who you've been gracious enough to thank for at least 2 Jane Powell uploads! Thank you so much! Think I have about 12 or more clips with Ms. P! She's wonderful! I've a friend in Manhattan who has spotted her now and then, and I think she has a home there, and in Connecticut. Her last love, and husband, Dickie Moore, died at 89 nearly 2 years ago. Like you, I'm hoping she's well! Great to hear from you! varadero
And to think Jane is now 84 years old! Loved her since childhood, and will never stop being a fan! Thanks so much for writing, and look for other Jane from me! Best regards!
This arrangement of Ava Maria is the best arrangement of this song I have ever heard, and I've heard just about every one by every artist . Jane also sings it the best, she is a superb singer. My favorite forever. She gives Deanna Durbin a good "run for her money". I've seen her in person preforming several times and will never forget her warmth and sincerity. I first saw her when I was in grammar school, and have been following her ever since. I even fenagled a 33 rpm album from my boss that she made. My prise possession, "CAN'T WE BE FRIENDS ". Thank goodness for putting her performance on TH-cam. I connect it to my tv, and enjoy watching and listening to her for hours.
A kindred spirit! Thanks so much mbuck0313 for writing. I'm a big Jane fan myself; first saw her in "Song of The Open Road." I've posted 9 other Jane clips. They're on my site: varadero 1839 One more that's just a slide show but features Jane and Jan in a winner from "Paint Your Wagon!" th-cam.com/video/P8eunpDOC-A/w-d-xo.html Hope you'll look me up! Best wishes, varadero PS Wonderful word "fenagled!" Haven't heard that for a long, long time! Thanks!
@enterprisebaby I suspect we're in complete agreement! Jane Powell was/is one of the finest contributors to this amazing era. Sadly, you're correct in that we'll never see movies like this again. I'm grateful to hear from you, and honored that you chose this clip! Thanks so much.
@buddfbe She's a favorite of mine also; you might have guessed! She was the hostess on Turner Classic Movies last week, and looked great! She, and other guests will be hosting while Robert Osborne is out for surgery. It was wonderful to see her live! Thanks for your message.
best version ever ....stunning clip ......i have the movie on video . it's scratchy and crap ....but i still watch it ......as we all know ....one of the only actresses to use her own vocals ....as if miss jane powell needed a voice over . thanks for the upload
I think we're in the very same boat! I first saw her in "Song of The Open Road," and I was enthralled forever. Love Jane, always will, and have numerous clips dedicated to her! When you have time, you know what to do! Thanks so much for your message! My fondest regards to you!
¡Muchas gracias! Para mí, Jane es un tesoro amado por el mundo! Su voz y su presentación puede traer lágrimas a los ojos! Otra vez, gracias por escribir!
Impressionnant ce AVE MARIA Hollywoodien avec ses prises de vues gigantesques! comme seul HOLLYWOOD a pu le faire! Et la jeune Jane POWELL hypersensible musicalement!
@Avatar610 Seems like Joe Pasternak got around; in an artistic way! You've given me a destination! Will look for Deanna's clip of this same song. I remember Walter Pidgeon as the hunky pastor in "How Green Was My Valley!" He managed to slide into home with these wonderful father figures over the years. Thanks, and so glad to hear from you!
Thank you for responding to my comment. "Fanagled", meaning I told him can I bring it home and listen to it, I'll take good care of it. When my mother passed my brother knew I wanted Ava Maria played. Unbeknown to me, he brought up a famous coral singer from Fl. to sing that song for my mother, then she turned right away and went home. It was a very special moment for me. Jane lives in Ct. I always hoped I'd run into her. That would.be super. Take care, and keep putting good Vidios out there.
Hi! My best friend lives in the West 80s, in Manhattan. Some years ago she told me she'd seen Jane in markets in the area. This was some time ago, probably prior to the death of her husband, Dickie Moore. I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your mother; I've been there. Hope you've had the opportunity to view some of the "JP" videos I've posted and sent your way. Grateful for your message; delighted to be in touch! John/Varadero
Hi Diana! Jane will always be one of my favorites, and I'm grateful to hear from you! If you're interested, I've 9 other posts with lovely Jane; the Birthday Lady!
legrandeano rey Thanks for saying so! She was/is adorable and I hope you'll view some of the other obscure clips with Jane that I've posted! Seriously, very grateful! varadero
@varadero1839 So glad that we are in agreement! I thought it more than a coincidence that I came across this video on the feast of the Immaculate Conception. Beautiful song, beautiful video, and the incomparable beauty of Miss Powell.
I love beautiful musicals like that. They don't make movies like that anymore. When you see a beautiful voice with a wonderful choir behind it it brings such comfort. It reminds us, that movies were supposed to take us away from reality, even just for a little while. I love watching movies like, the bells of st. Mary's, come to the Stables, the original Miracle on 34th Street, The Quiet Man, and many more movies like that. It's nice to get hypnotized by story, it has a happy ending.
+aninalos Dear aninalos, You're so kind to remember Jane on her birthday! Time permitting, please view some of the other Jane tributes I've posted. I 1st saw her in "Song of The Open Road." Been a big fan ever since. Best wishes, varadero
brandywell44 Thank your for writing! I loved them together, and it shows! If you have time, please YT Search and enter Think of You - Jane Powell, Jose Iturbi. best wishes, varadero
A rare example of lightning striking twice in filmdom: producer Joe Pasternak had made Deanna Durbin a star at Universal and here he was a decade later doing the same thing with Jane Powell at MGM! He even recreated the ending from Deanna' s 1940 film "It's a Date" which had her singing thie Schubert "Ave Maria"! And one again Walter Pidgeon is playing the father.
I remember Walter Pidgeon played her father in Deana's movie. I thought that was quite a coincidence. So play both artist singing one after the other, Jane wins. !!!!!
Reading your book "Girl next Door". You kept saying you never considered yourself a star. This and all your talent proves your wrong. Oh semi neighbor in CT met you at a cocktail party with your husband.
Jane sang this in in "Holiday in Mexico," from 1946. Here are a couple more from the same wonderful film: th-cam.com/video/QYxc2i2gK6I/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/6-vXf_wOB-Y/w-d-xo.html Hope you enjoy! varadero

Rest in Peace Jane Powell 1929 - 2021 😭😭😭😭
R.I.P. Jane Powell who went to heaven to be with Jesus. She is now Singing with real Angels.
Listen to Miss Powell sing Are Maria every day for two years. You've helped with anxiety, sister with Cancer now with this Virus. We were almost neighbors in CT.

So true.
It was a special moment in time.
A couple of years I was up in my mother's attic and I found an old life magazine. On the front cover was a picture of Jane
Powell holding a fluffy kitten. I couldn't believe I have this picture. She is my favorite singer. When I feel down I listen to her sing. She is the best amongst all the singers.
The irony of this magazine is that the date of the magazine is my birthday date. I wish I had found it earlier, I would have brought it to a concert I saw her in , I would have asked her to sign it. I'm sure she would have been thrilled to see it. A piece of history.
I just heard an angel singing. Her voice is beautiful. She is singing a beautiful song too. Bravo!! 👏🏻
Rest in Peace, Ms. Powell, and thank you for gracing cinema with your beauty and talent.
Such a beautiful woman, I was born in the wrong generation. People just don't sing like this anymore...
I WANT TO SELL MY HOUSE AND PACK MY BAGS AND GO BACK TO THE YEAR 1955 AND LIVE THE REST OF MY LIFE THERE. I DONT LIKE THESE TIMES NOW.
So true now we are stuck with the likes of Taylor Swift
You are right by there Danielle
You are right by there Danielle they don't have singers like that anymore

Jane Powell is one of the great talents of her generation. I first heard her when she recorded "True Love" and loved her voice ever since
Wonderful Voice!! Wonderful Lady!’👌👌👌👌👌
Jane Powell was the first Hollywood Actress that I knew ❤️
Amazing, Jane Powell is so beautiful, and her voice is so sweet and magical.!!!
Hello friend, how are you doing today???
When I was a teenager and studying and performing singing, Jane Powell was my idol. And she is still close to my heart.
found this search for my 83 yr. old mother. She was thrilled!

Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. Too bad they don't make movies like this anymore. Miss Powell will continue to enchant us for years to come.

After the Ave Maria came the real Jane Powell. Loved her voice.
hi duongnuhiep,
This is from "Holiday in Mexico," 1946, her 1st technicolor film.
That's a heck of a power-to-weight ratio.
Beautiful.
Wonderful....Thank you
@Avatar610 Seems like Joe Pasternak got around; in an artistic way! You've given me a destination! Will look for Deanna's clip of this same song. I remember Walter Pidgeon as the hunky pastor in "How Green Was My Valley!" He managed to slide into home with these wonderful father figures over the years. Thanks, and so glad to hear from you!
So beautifull God Bless her
Yes love all old musicals and old movies that youtube put on
wonderful merveilleux!

+varadero1839 I know you said in the description that this was when she was 17. Any idea what films she made at the time that could have this scene?
I love her movies...☺️.
She radiates beauty
@varadero1839 So glad that we are in agreement! I thought it more than a coincidence that I came across this video on the feast of the Immaculate Conception. Beautiful song, beautiful video, and the incomparable beauty of Miss Powell.
MAGNIFICA JANA POWELL.
Happy Birthday to dear Jane who will be 87. I send her all my love.
This is from Holiday in Mexico, 1946.
with a young Roddy McDowell
THANKS, I WAS JUST WONDERING WHAT MOVIE THIS WAS IN.

Lovely voice 17years
Thank u sooo much J... i apologize for my late comment... its magnificant !!!

Very many Happy returns on your 86th Birthday dearest Janie. Love, David
