After a long a productive musical life, Toots Thielemans has just offered his life to eternity. Let's feel awe and gratitude for this great musician, who has given the world so many wonderful tunes who play directly to the heart.
This is a terrific performance! Both songs are remarkable, because The One Note Samba is the greatest Bossa Nova Samba Jazz Song Of All Time PERIOD, and Bluesette is The Greatest Jazz Song Of All Time PERIOD!!!!!
And just to think that i had the great pleasure to talk with that wonderful legend Mr. Thielemans in a jazz club called Catalina`s in Los Angeles.... WOOOW.
Yes, he is TOOTS, the famous and excellent harmonica player for ever ... and ... guitar player, too ... when he was young. His whistle ... the same quality. From BraSil, Marcelo Batista
Our hearts, your's and mine feel deeply at the losses of authentic artists (not the ones today who grab their crotches for recognition), of true talent and genius, such as is here in moving pictures, which stands as proof of there being no recording tricks, no lip synching; only true, high art, which plainly lives in this performance. And THAT's rare today!!!.. "Bluesette" by Toots is the all time greatest jazz waltz in the world and decorated with he playing the greatest harmonica solos ever, to boot ! ! Thanks for posting this, Mark in L.A.
Beautiful!!! I was stunned today to run across this video - Toots Thielemans and Birgit Listaer (sp?), two artists that are solid and confident in their talent, and expert performers. I listened - and again, and again! One thing no one seemed to notice right off was the expert whistling that was, I believe, Toots Thielemans. He is just tremendous!
A Belgian and a Danish play a song by a Brazilian in a style that is arguably developed through fusion with American music. Damn, music IS international!
This is so great RGSneaker! Thank you so much for posting for all of to enjoy. I never heard this singer before, very enjoyable and of course, have loved Toots for his whole career. Thanks again.
Que hermosa mujer.!, si se pudiera coincidir en el tiempo y el espacio, quien sabe si aun viva, su canto es sublime y de una nostalgia desgarradora, saludos desde Colombia...

How many musicians change the course of jazz? Toots was one of the greatest "ever". He created the harmonica as a jazz instrument - nobody had ever done that before. I got to seem him before he passed the Blue Note in NYC - one of the greatest concerts I ever got to hear.
Do any of you know or remember that, "Blusette" was the song played by Toots at the end of, "The Getaway?" Great movie, second best of the great Steve McQueen. "Bulitt" is first!
Poor little, sad little blue Bluesette Don't you cry, don't you fret You can bet one lucky day you'll waken And your blues will be forsaken One lucky day lovely love will come your way Long as there's love in your heart to share Dear Bluesette, don't despair Some blue boy is longing just like you To find a someone to be true to Two loving arms you can nestle in and stay Get set, Bluesette True love is coming Your troubled heart soon will be humming (Instrumental) Pretty little Bluesette, musn't be a mourner Have you heard the news yet? Love is round the corner Love wrapped in rainbows and tied with pink ribbons To make your next springtime your gold wedding ring time So dry your eyes don't you fuss, don't you fret Goody-good times are coming Bluesette Long as there's love in your heart to share Oh dear Bluesette, oh don't despair Some blue boy is longing just like you To find a someone to be true to One lucky day lovely love will come your way That lucky day May just be today
This is just a little samba Built upon a single note Other notes are bound to follow But the root is still that note Now this new note is the consequence Of the one we've just been through As I'm bound to be The unavoidable consequence of you There's so many people Who can talk and talk, and talk And just say nothing Or nearly nothing I have used up all the scale I know and at the end I've come to nothing I mean nothing So I come back to my first note As I come back to you I will pour into that one note All the love I feel for you Any one who wants the whole show Re mi fa so la ci do He will find himself with no show Better play the note you know So I come back to my first note I must come back to you I will pour into that one note All the love I feel for you Any one who wants the whole show Re mi fa so la ci do He will find himself with no show Better play the note you know
Poor little, sad little blue bluesette Dont you cry, dont you fret, You can bet one lucky day you'll waken, and your blues will be foresaken, One lucky day lovely day will come your way. Long as there's love in your heart to share, Dear Bluesette don't despair Some blue boy is longing just like you' To find a someone to be true to, Two loving arms you can nestle in to stay. Get set, Bluesette, True love is coming, Your troubled heart soon will be humming. Pretty little Blusette, Musn't be a mourner, Have you heard the news yet, Love's 'round the corner.

I can't believe this has escaped me on youtube for 6 years. Excellent.
So long Toots,you inspired us all..

I'm going to cry he reaches me so much..and she is great too!!
This are both very difficult songs to sing, and she makes them sound easy and utterly smooth, while smiling, and balancing that hat on her head.
every time I read your comment I laugh!
Bym.
So true haha
ONE NOTE? how can u go wrong with JUST ONE NOTE bwhahahaha Really!
Bonita voz muy buena combinación con Toots
Une légende ce Toots!Musicien jouant parfaitement,de l'harmonica bien sûr mais aussi de la guitare et de la batterie!Génial!
...et son premier instrument a été l accordéon...
Mr. Jobim's works sound wonderful no matter who performs them!

Absolutely Superb Renditions of Both Famous Jazz Songs of All Time PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!
this music will never die as long as I am alive
Can't stop playing, hooked❤🍸😍😘🌷

Toots was amazing. Amazing what a great American accent the singer has.
I wouldn’t have known she was danish if he hadn’t said.
A Belgian and a Danish play a song by a Brazilian in a style that is arguably developed through fusion with American music. Damn, music IS international!
Toots was one of the greatest, love his playing😊
of course, total musician that he is, he cannot stop producing sounds with his mouth, even when he's got another instrument in his hand ;-)
Thanks for highlighting his skills on the guitar an as a whistler-very considerable and too long forgotten
Och aye ! Astrid gud nien x
To me the greatest music living legend Mr. Toots Theielemans, don´t you ever die Toots because my heart will die with you.
Pure, swinging Joy!
Bluesette Great Danmark and Maestro Toots Thilemans
Oh man this is bliss. Im in love with Bluesette!

This is so great RGSneaker! Thank you so much for posting for all of to enjoy. I never heard this singer before, very enjoyable and of course, have loved Toots for his whole career. Thanks again.

how can u not like that,makes u smile
Really terrific! Thank you for posting.
Incredible combination
👍👏💐👍👏💐❤️❤️❤️very nice performance
He is soooooooo FN great!!!
Nothing more romantic than some dude with glasses looking you in the eyes as he plays harmonica for you

I saw him in trio in a big pub here in Brussels in 1975...great session
Absolute perfection!!!
Bluesett is Amazing Still !!! 💞
R.I.P Toots Thielemans
Toots, helaas niet meer onder ons, een groot musicus en een bescheiden en beminnelijk mens.
Dat hij ruste in vrede.
Fabulous ❤
Just wish to listen to a longer version of One Note Samba
I've tried hard to sing Bluesette...seems not easy also One note Samba...nice songs!
Ben Webster chillin' in the background, at the end...
RIP Toots. :^(
excellent....!
Beautiful
Toots visited Sweden a lot in the 60's and 70's and speaks pretty good swedish
Maravilloso!!😘
Do any of you know or remember that, "Blusette" was the song played by Toots at the end of, "The Getaway?" Great movie, second best of the great Steve McQueen. "Bulitt" is first!
so good
This is the nearest to Vicki Carr's great version [can't find anywhere]. What a musical feast for the jazz harmonist.
Nice! And naughty!
If it were not for the video visuals, I'd be wondering what the two were doing together!
Poor little, sad little blue Bluesette
Don't you cry, don't you fret
You can bet one lucky day you'll waken
And your blues will be forsaken
One lucky day lovely love will come your way
Long as there's love in your heart to share
Dear Bluesette, don't despair
Some blue boy is longing just like you
To find a someone to be true to
Two loving arms you can nestle in and stay
Get set, Bluesette
True love is coming
Your troubled heart soon will be humming
(Instrumental)
Pretty little Bluesette, musn't be a mourner
Have you heard the news yet? Love is round the corner
Love wrapped in rainbows and tied with pink ribbons
To make your next springtime your gold wedding ring time
So dry your eyes don't you fuss, don't you fret
Goody-good times are coming Bluesette
Long as there's love in your heart to share
Oh dear Bluesette, oh don't despair
Some blue boy is longing just like you
To find a someone to be true to
One lucky day lovely love will come your way
That lucky day
May just be today
She's great!
This is just a little samba
Built upon a single note
Other notes are bound to follow
But the root is still that note
Now this new note is the consequence
Of the one we've just been through
As I'm bound to be
The unavoidable consequence of you
There's so many people
Who can talk and talk, and talk
And just say nothing
Or nearly nothing
I have used up all the scale
I know and at the end
I've come to nothing
I mean nothing
So I come back to my first note
As I come back to you
I will pour into that one note
All the love I feel for you
Any one who wants the whole show
Re mi fa so la ci do
He will find himself with no show
Better play the note you know
So I come back to my first note
I must come back to you
I will pour into that one note
All the love I feel for you
Any one who wants the whole show
Re mi fa so la ci do
He will find himself with no show
Better play the note you know
Excellent!
Estou apaixonado 😍😍😍😍😍 por essa música
Excellent
Very Nice!
Charming.
Ficou lindo. It was beautiful
lovely!
Poor little, sad little blue bluesette
Dont you cry, dont you fret,
You can bet one lucky day you'll waken,
and your blues will be foresaken,
One lucky day lovely day will come your way.
Long as there's love in your heart to share,
Dear Bluesette don't despair
Some blue boy is longing just like you'
To find a someone to be true to,
Two loving arms you can nestle in to stay.
Get set, Bluesette,
True love is coming,
Your troubled heart soon will be humming.
Pretty little Blusette,
Musn't be a mourner,
Have you heard the news yet,
Love's 'round the corner.
Love wrapped in rainbows and tied with pink ribbons
To make your next springtime
Your gold wedding ring time.
So dry your eyes
Awesome!
Wunderschööön!
Essa garota canta bem.
Me gustó esta versión del notable tema Bluesette, era que no, si estaba el mismo Toots más joven.
Genial silbando, tocando guitarra eléctrica🎸
Y qué decir de la cantante Birgit 💖, con mucho angel, transmite emoción y un swing que hace vibrar.
Saludos cordiales desde Chile.
🥺❤🧡❤
Me encanta. Maravilloso Toot. La cantante impecable en su interpretación.
Muito bom!!!
Very good!
Love you and miss you M ister Thielemans

I love the helmet hair!
Judging from the glimpse in one shot of Toot's hair in the back, I'll take her helmet hair any day. It was pretty good camera work. Kind of like music progams produced at OU back in the 70's. If you know what I mean.
Suddenly I got the urge to rewatch That Man from Rio (1964).
Super Toots Thielman and Birgitt. Mine first Wife heisse Birgitt aus Deutschland.(Germany.)
Yo puedo añadir k sin música no soy nada... Forma parte de mi vida.🎉
Just listen people just listen xxx
Et que dire de son thème?Un mot:Genial!
ben webster sitting on the right at the end of the video!!
The great Swedish singer Monica Zetterlund sang bluesette " Bedårande sommarvals" 1964
With lyrics from Tage Danielsson
FANTASTICO!
Be!lissima esibizione
Aiiii caramba, she's a cutie, this Birgit. 😊❤😊❤😊
classy.
❤ ❤ ❤
Like my kindergarten teacher from '67-'68...we've have done anything for her, at least the boys would!
Hun er fantastisk!!!
grandioso!
