- Titles read: "NOW Pathe Pictorial has pleasure in presenting - HILDEGARDE - the famous International Cabaret and Radio Star".
Probably filmed at Pathe Studio, London.
Cabaret singer Hildegarde sits at the grand piano and introduces her song as being about an English boy falling in love with a French girl, but not knowing enough of the French language to express his love. She sings and plays 'Darling, Je Vous Aime Beaucoup' - quite charming!
Fashion note: Hildegarde wears a halterneck dress with a shiny black bodice (looks like leather or pvc!) with the remainder of the gown in a checked fabric - unusual!

I had heard of Hildegarde but never heard her sing until now. What a delightful artiste with an exquisite voice. What a pleasure and thank you for posting.
It is sad that there are such wonderful actors and singers who, at one time, were superstars of their eras but are today forgotten. Thanks for showing us Hildegarde
Such confident piano playing. So casual and easy.
I'd never heard of her. She's delightful! Thanks for posting this.
How many singers can accompany themselves on the piano this way, with such expression?
Nat King Cole,comes to mind,who,as it happens, recorded a hit seller of this same tune,almost 20 years,later.
Fats Waller
Helps to have a lovely Grotrian-Steinweg piano under one's fingers, no doubt pleasing the absurdly talented Hildegarde.
@@mbrough2799 Is THAT the brand of the piano being played? couldn't read the blurry brand, would've recognized the logo if I had seen it more xD
This was from the 1930's at the beginning of her career. There is a YT of her performing in her 70's but nothing of her spectacular performances at the peak of her long career . Eleanor Roosevelt described her as "The First Lady of the Supper Clubs."
I am so happy to share the name with her
She is stunning
I googled people who lived to be 99 years old. Her bio got me here.
She certainly is incomparable!!!
Lovely! Recently found this channel and now I have to thank you for uploading all these wonderful pearls from yesteryear! It isn't the kind of music I normally listen to, but the quality and the charm of those artists totally melted my heart!
Her voice is like a beautiful angel. 🥺❤️
What a delightful historic clip!
She's very good. Her piano playing is as graceful and charming as her singing. Just one thing..She sounds like she is playing and singing in Db but she looks like she is playing in C. This would indicate that her actual voice is lower in sound quality than it is in the video. Very pretty nontheless. Thanx for posting!
Also a great pianist and real charmer. Funny although Amercian when she sings she sounds English.... perfect BBC accent! I guess this is what was popular. Today it seems the opposite applies.
What a dish. Now why haven't I heard of and seen her before now?
Recorded a lot on US Decca 1930s-1948 on 78 some issued in UK on Brunswick , switched early to 45s with a smattering of releases in the 1950s and 60s, but was mostly a "live" performer at the smaller revue clubs in the US rather than big theatres.
C'est vraiment....very interesting this....chanson bilingue!

Delightful! and that dress!
Simplesmente.....maravilhosa!!!
A number of big stars came out of Milwaukee around this time: Spencer Tracy, Jack Carson (originally from Canada), Pat O'Brien & Hildegarde.
and Liberace ......who in a interview said he played a room behind Hildagarde in 1945 and needed a gimmick to be noticed so he started using the Candelabra on his piano that would become his trademark ..
Still mesmerised
She played piano? Interesting, her playing is just as good as her singing!
What a master piece song..mercy
I really love the song. I wish there's a full lyrics of this. I can't find it in the internet :
Here you go :)
Je suis ici pas très long
Mais, s'il vous plaît, écoute my song
Vous avez un grand appeal
To speak my heart it's difficile
Permettez-moi to expliquer
In my own peculiar way
Exactly what mon cœur would say :
Darling, je vous aime beaucoup
Je ne sais pas what to do
Vous avez completely stolen my heart
Matin, midi et le soir
Toujours wondering how you are
That's the way I've felt right from the start
Ah, chérie my love for you is très, très fort
Wish my French were good enough
I'd tell you so much more
Mais j'espère that you compris
All the little things you mean to me
My Darling, je vous aime beaucoup
I love you
Darling, vous êtes très jolie
Mais qu'est-ce que c'est vous do to me ?
Absolutely je suis in a trance
Tout le temps j'espère que vous
Dream of me a little too
Ah! Chérie je pense this is romance
Quand nous sommes alone and you are in my arms
Je remercie le bon Dieu for all your lovely charms
Tell me, do you love me too ?
Je suis happy if you do
My darling, je vous aime beaucoup
I love you so
I do, I do love you
@@sarahaljabban8305 Thank you very, very and very muchhh!!!
@@shesmintygreen Aw, you're welcome ❤️ I'm glad I could help :)
Liberace brought me here.
❤
Milwaukee gal!!
Ohhh !!!
Personality to spare
hmm....I just found out that Eva Braun wore her hair similarly
Written by a woman, ANNA SOSENKO, about a man singing to a woman, sung by a woman... the incomparable Hildegarde - whose career as a world famous chanteuse Sosenko launched and managed for nearly three decades.
hmm...confuses me!
