To be honest, I don't think I ever even heard of him, but hearing him sing this--and a song like "I've Got to be Me"--I thought I was listening to Frank Sinatra! 😃
Rest in peace, the great Steve Lawrence, the world mourns your passing, as do I. Thank you so much for all the music and all the love you gave us.😢❤❤❤❤❤
Steve Lawrence has always been my favourite singer. I am a 79 y.o. male and I have cherished his singing for 60 years. Steve Lawrence is the best singer that I have heard
Old s t e r s know what music was beautiful music beautiful words and they still use these songs for commercials pretty blue eyes the old crowd Lesley Gore go listen to that one again do yourself a favor and go listen to Lesley Gore the old crowd. We are lucky we have many friends that we've had for 70 years speaking for myself I have one for 73 years and all these beautiful songs from the 40s 50s 60s kick us all in touch with memories to hold dear forever you sure and I can't find that in any of the music that what they call music nowadays a good song like the land That Time Forgot by Kelly seek that and it will fit right in with all your 50s 60s thank you for your post
Steve ALWAYS, managed to deliver the goods, no matter what! All around performer. Always, an incredibly clean voice, with an easy going style. Never heard a bad thing said by anyone about Mr. LAWRENCE. Class act all the way! RIP, Steve and thanks for all that great listening music....
And it's a live version, Steve was too good to Lyp Synck (mouthing the words) because he and Eydie Gorme were from an era that we will never see again Ever Period!!!!!!!!!!
See him in Malibu Often he is a neighbor. One of the nicest souls one can ever meet. As is his wife Edie. One of the greatest singers that has ever lived.
Steve Lawrence, man what a voice! One of the greats....What happened to all this great music? Glad we have recordings and videos to relive it over and over. I missed this great generation by a few years. What a time it must have been...……….
Steve Lawrence, the power behind the voice that could bring back the romantics in us during our memorable past to life and make our hearts feel young and in love once again.
I listened to this song so much growing up but I never knew what he looked like till now. Wow, what a beautiful person. That voice, that presence, and delivery. He’s incredible! It still gets me every time I hear this song. 😭
Steve Lawrence was simply put THE BEST. He beats them all in my view. Yes I said it.. His voice control, projection, range, crisp diction, smooth effortless delivery and ability to project proper emotional content is in a class by itself. He always holds the note strong, no rasp, cracks or drop off. The only other American male vocalist I have there in that category is Johnny Mathis another superb vocalist from that era. That's it. Steve Lawrence had it all.
Mr. Lawrence can sing any love song because of his beautiful voice. I have been a fan of his and his late wife for a very long time. When still living in NJ I saw them in concert. This will forever be a blessing for me. They bought the house down.
I'm also from NJ (originally), and while working in Manhattan, I had the chance to see them both perform - it was AMAZING. I've been a huge fan of Eydie Gormé since childhood, so seeing her live was a dream come true. But I must say, Steve brought the house down with a performance of a Yiddish song. The audience erupted in response.
I'm 63 .. I'm mostly familiar with him because of my mom. She showed us all music from all venues. This is one of my all-time favorite songs, RIP Steve 😢
One of the great American popular singers. And do not call him a "crooner." This is a rich, powerful high baritone. I'm sure that in his prime (perhaps even now), Steve could sing in a fairly big theater without a microphone; and everyone in the audience would hear him clearly
John Coyle: I'm 84 at this time... and like you 4 years ago, I feel the same feelings. I love Steve Lawrence's impeccable performance on stage- handsome, smiling and at ease on stage, glowing at his best. Indeed, to me he is the full package. Many of the songs such as this, I prefer him over Sinatra, Bennett, and other singers. I've seem and enjoyed many of his shows. Great entertainer. Salute!
One of the greatest male singers and Entertainers in the last 60 years. This song he sings gives him 3rd place behind,Jim Nabors and Jack Jones as the greatest singers of this song no doubt about it either Period !!!!!
I think Steve Lawrence was often underrated. He had a clean, beautiful voice.
He was but when he and Eydie performed together especially in Vegas, they brought the house down!!!!!
@Philly MarkLXXII
Actually, my favorite version of this song was done by Jack Jones, one of the best singers of his generation, in my opinion.
His voice was powerful and so Beautiful. He was a natural. He held his own. "I Gotta Be Me" was perfection.
Steves best move was marrying Eydie. Singing with her was the dumbest.
To be honest, I don't think I ever even heard of him, but hearing him sing this--and a song like "I've Got to be Me"--I thought I was listening to Frank Sinatra! 😃
the best version of this beautiful song, melody and lyrics

REST IN PEACE Steve Lawrence you have left, time to rest, but your music will go on for eternity as well as your beloved Eydie ✝
Steve was an all-around performer with good looks and a wonderful singing voice! Sing on forever Steve wherever you are!
He's the still living.

WOW! He really had an amazing voice! R.I.P. Steve & Eydie
My favorite singer,for over 50 years.
A fantastic voice!!
Tremendously talented singer. Always enjoyed his music.
And it's a live version, Steve was too good to Lyp Synck (mouthing the words) because he and Eydie Gorme were from an era that we will never see again Ever Period!!!!!!!!!!
This is still the BEST version of this song. What an awesome voice.
Have you heard Connie's live rendition on the Sullivan Show ?
See him in Malibu Often he is a neighbor. One of the nicest souls one can ever meet. As is his wife Edie. One of the greatest singers that has ever lived.
Steve Lawrence, man what a voice! One of the greats....What happened to all this great music? Glad we have recordings and videos to relive it over and over. I missed this great generation by a few years. What a time it must have been...……….
I loved his personality and great looks besides his talent, voice on stage!
As good as it gets.
I've loved Steve's work for dang near 50 years. May God continue to bless this great singer, great artist, great entertainer.
He was terrific but now that he's gotten older and with the devastating loss of Eydie Gorme, he'll Never Ever Be the Same !!!!!
Amazing performance. For me this is the best version of "The Impossible Dream"! Be blessed, Steve Lawrence!
Steve Lawrence, the power behind the voice that could bring back the romantics in us during our memorable past to life and make our hearts feel young and in love once again.
Steve does a wonderful job not only interpreting this song, but explaining its context.
Unmatched even today, Steve made his mark forever.
I listened to this song so much growing up but I never knew what he looked like till now. Wow, what a beautiful person. That voice, that presence, and delivery. He’s incredible! It still gets me every time I hear this song. 😭
Fantastic Interpretation of a Song..Steve Lawrence is a great "Singer..Actor..Person...forever..
Great voice,great looks. The whole package: Steve Lawrence.
Don’t forget an entertaining actor as well
Yes and always hillarious on Carroll Burnett's show!
@@namk19 Absolutely and let's not forget the late great Eydie Gorme! What a beautiful woman with a magnificent voice !!!!!
One of the the best of all time. been a fan of his since 1959...and yet, 50's Rhythm & Blues is my favorite kind of music...
One of my favorites, Mellow and beautiful voice!
Steve Lawrence was a legend. RIP
A forever song - one that itself will never die...and a performance of rare power and beauty.
Dude was born to sing.
The best rendition of this song by anyone. Ever.
I love how he can put feeling into this song just magnificent
I am lucky in this life to hear your "Voice"...thanks Steve

Out of the ball park! Great singing, Mr. Lawrence!
Powerful and lovely voice at the same time!

He one of the best performer of his time and until this 21st century era
one of the best singers from that era
Yes, and it was an era of many fine male vocalist. He was always one of my favorites. Solid talented performer, singing, serious drama, comedy,
Steve Lawrence was simply put THE BEST.
He beats them all in my view. Yes I said it.. His voice control, projection, range, crisp diction, smooth effortless delivery and ability to project proper emotional content is in a class by itself.
He always holds the note strong, no rasp, cracks or drop off. The only other American male vocalist I have there in that category is Johnny Mathis another superb vocalist from that era. That's it.
Steve Lawrence had it all.
Fitzgerald Anthony,you forgot to mention the best of them all,Sammy Davis Jr.
FrankSinatra,Tony Bennett,Matt Monro,Steve Lawrence,JackJones,Andy Williams,et al. Oh how lucky we are.
Good list!
Perry Como too, love that voice, and Bing....check out John Michael Talbot, (more recent like John Denver), he's Christian folk but wow...!
moggs And The King?
Where is Fifty Cents in the list? Why all white heterosexual men? Are you a sexist racist?
Sammy davis was the greatest singer and performer of all time.from robert,the s.f.giant fan
I had a crush on him
Brilliant... sheer Brilliance
Simply superb.
You lived the impossible dream RIP
Mr. Lawrence can sing any love song because of his beautiful voice. I have been a fan of his and his late wife for a very long time.
When still living in NJ I saw them in concert. This will forever be a blessing for me. They bought the house down.
In addition to his voice, he brings an understanding nature. He is a real person in his range of emotions and empathy. All in my opinion of course....
I'm also from NJ (originally), and while working in Manhattan, I had the chance to see them both perform - it was AMAZING. I've been a huge fan of Eydie Gormé since childhood, so seeing her live was a dream come true. But I must say, Steve brought the house down with a performance of a Yiddish song.

RIP Mr. Lawrence. You will be missed. ❤
just superb.
Thanks again Steve
I can never get tired of listening to him!
I just saw him in Two and a Half Men. Never heard about him before..! Gorgeous voice!

So many Great Singers...Frank...Elvis...But then their is Steve!!!!!
