It was also something they did back then, dancing was a norm, but yeah actors did often need to be good at all 3. I wish that type of dance would come back, social dancing that was classy and beautiful.
Kelly is just good enough a singer not to be intimidated by the purity of Andrews voice. Andrews is just good enough a dancer, not to be intimidated b the grace of Kelly's steps. It works.
I'm 21 now but I've been watching old movies and listening to old music ever since I was a kid. It doesn't make you weird, but unique =) Be glad you know quality entertainment when you see/hear it.
Thank you for your appreciation of the old and classic. I hope more of your generation follows. So many great tunes, ballads and love songs from yesteryear.
Funny until last night wouldn't understand this comment. I have gotten to know about Gene Kelly because of his appearance on The Dean Martin Show. Since then i have just started watching his movies. Last night i watch "Singing IN The Rain". It would of been great if they star in a movie together.
@@toniwilson1579 Welcome to a wonderful new world! I have known many of Gene Kelly's films since I was a young kid, but I kinda envy you because you've got a lot of great stuff to discover ( I know I'm responding to a year-old post). Some of my favorites are 'Anchors Aweigh', 'The Pirate', and 'It's Always Fair Weather'. Enjoy!
Pure absolute magic. How lucky we are to have these memories of when Julie and Gene worked together. I love the last shot of this sequence as they turn their backs to the camera and slowly walk away in to television history.
Gene Kelly was a big heart throb of mine when I was a kid and Julie Andrews had one of the purest voices ever, so even thought Gene is a bit older here he can still outclass them all. Fabulous
Glorious moment: the radiant, beautiful , talented and irresitible Julie Andrews dancing with the formidable Gene Kelly! That's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
So many commenters realize and recognize that this is quality entertainment, on a high level, unlike the junk they are fed on TV today. If people want this type of artistic performance - why are producers producing junk? Maybe they are low class as a group. Maybe they are vulgar so produce vulgarity.When will a film maker produce TV that is of this type of quality. But there are no stars like Julie A and Gene K anymore. Can you imagine Lady Gaga playing Julie's part? It would be beyond her comprehension.
I have always loved Julie Andrews and she has almost always danced, but you can really see it in her work with Kelly, who is so generous and makes her the center of attention.
I remember this TV special with Julie Andrews and Gene Kelly when I was a child. It was special indeed. Julie has the voice, Kelly has the moves, and they meet each other perfectly half way.
man, if these two were on dancing with the stars and american or canadian idol, they would win both at the SAME TIME! I love these two. so good together.
I don't think it's weird. I was also born a lot later than these songs and dances were created and I've always loved them. Quality music and dance are what true art is, they become classic and timeless. That's why people of different ages will continue to enjoy them indefinitely.
It really is good that we can see all those great artist, on You tube.Thank you to the all people who giver us such wonders.It make sure they will not be forgotten.
I can't imagine how many times this has been said, but will it ever get old? Probably two of the most talented musical actors ever to live, together on one stage is just magic. Why directors never begged them to do a movie together is certainly beyond me.
Yes he is lovely and I love her movies and oh what a voice they both have. I just watched Anchors Aweigh a few days ago, a musicalmovie with Gene Kelly AND Frank Sinatra. it was made in 1945, but it was a great movie. Hope thay one day make it on dvd. Or hope that TCM will send it again so I can record it. REALLY HOPE SO =D
she is absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love her. in in the middle of her autobiography "home" and she has such an amazing story!!!!! ahhhh i love her
Not weird at all! You can help keep their memories alive I regret I didn't pay more attention in the '70s when they were all still here and young enough to be performing on TV! I was only 2 or 3 when this show with Julie and Gene aired, so I wouldn't remember it, but it's so wonderful it's on TH-cam for those of us too young or not around at the time!
Absolute CLASS!!!!! such a world away from the garbage of today. Dont get me wrong, there are loads of talented performers in this era...but they just dont make 'em like this anymore. Such a shame.
Someone's comment was it's so beautiful but will never have this again and no one will experience this type of Grace again however if they use their brain and if they get to know what beautiful and watch night it's out there you just have to find it and when you hear it you know this is it this is what we're missing today
Thanks for posting this! Gene Kelly had such sensitive feet! They were always stretched and finished. The sign of a great dancer! And Julie Andrews used her mouth beautifully. Small details that make them such great artists forever!
God they dance so so so well together :) It's beautiful, and these two both have talent that just cannot be taught. Absolutely flawless :') I could watch them for hours!
Things were no different back then. Everything happened behind closed doors and life was far more repressed. I'm glad to be here now then back then honestly. Grass and being greener...comes to mind..
I really wish The Julie Andrews Hour would be Publish in DVD! Julie's acting, singing & dancing each week, her humor & creativity interacting with here amazing guests are to die for! We need shows like hers these days
this is the first time ever that i have ever added a comment to anything.... I have just been to see debbie reynolds do her show at the apollo in London and I went on line to look at some stuff and stumbled across this....ahhhh. her voice is lovely and he has sort of got it...I love them anyway
From an era when stars had to sing and dance and act. They worked so hard and made it look so effortless. Wonderful!
It was also something they did back then, dancing was a norm, but yeah actors did often need to be good at all 3. I wish that type of dance would come back, social dancing that was classy and beautiful.
And oddly enough NONE of them had college degrees.
Julie Andrews was 30 and Gene Kelly was ...53! when this sequence was created. 2 artists from 2 separate eras. WOnderful, timeless dance.
Kelly is just good enough a singer not to be intimidated by the purity of Andrews voice. Andrews is just good enough a dancer, not to be intimidated b the grace of Kelly's steps. It works.
Well said...
What a great observation!
It figures that this would be a dance number, what with Gene Kelly as special guest! Irwin Kostal 's musical arrangement was superb.
Oh the times when we had class. Gentlemen were gentle men and Ladies were ladies.
My heart cries for this. Why was I born too late
I know, I love the music back then!
Me too!
I'm an embryo, yet I like this type of music.
enjoy enjoy enjoy
So many of us out there!!
I'm 21 now but I've been watching old movies and listening to old music ever since I was a kid. It doesn't make you weird, but unique =) Be glad you know quality entertainment when you see/hear it.
I'm 21 now and can totally relate to that! Wonderful era for art and talent
Ireland is that you???
Thank you for your appreciation of the old and classic. I hope more of your generation follows. So many great tunes, ballads and love songs from yesteryear.
Great brass section just as Julie and Gene walk off.
I wish they played in a movie together, it would've been perfect
More than perfect. MARVELOUS!
They would have perfect in PAL JOEY.
Don Lockwood and Mary Poppins... such an unlikely duo and yet, it's perfect.
Can you imagine The smooth talking Don lockwood trying to talk to Mary Poppins😂

The crossover we never knew we needed
we cannot have something like this anymore.
Agree... I'm 18 years old and I think I born in the wrong year :(
We have it, though. x
Dame Andrews had the sweetest singing voice of all time.
Pure absolute magic. How lucky we are to have these memories of when Julie and Gene worked together. I love the last shot of this sequence as they turn their backs to the camera and slowly walk away in to television history.
The days that people had talent! I love you Gene the most hansome man on film full stop!! :)
WOW
I LOVE HER DRESS!..awesome music and awesome dancing too!
They sound perfect together! I wish they could have worked together more when they were younger. That would have been something to see.
Gene Kelly was a big heart throb of mine when I was a kid and Julie Andrews had one of the purest voices ever, so even thought Gene is a bit older here he can still outclass them all. Fabulous
Can you imagine what kind of legendary children they might have had
I've loved Gene Kelly ever since I first laid eyes on him. 😍
Adorable!! Lucky Gene, lucky Julie, and lucky US that they got to perform with each other!
Wow!! Two beautiful talented stars!! When music was soft and tender. I miss those days.
Back when music could be called music, and dancing could be called dancing. Today’s stuff is contaminated trash!
@@raylenenielsen5943 That sounds just about right! Instead of real singers like Julie, you have caterwaulers like Mariah Carey.
This Julie Andrews was even more talented than the public ever realized!!! She is and ALWAYS will be "ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS"!!!
Glorious moment: the radiant, beautiful , talented and irresitible Julie Andrews dancing with the formidable Gene Kelly! That's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

yess julie is one of a kind :)
Just lovely...Julie was as elegant and graceful as ever...Gene just killed those steps!
I have always loved Julie Andrews and she has almost always danced, but you can really see it in her work with Kelly, who is so generous and makes her the center of attention.
Well observed and said !
In a time when Hollywood had magic...
Every so often, I watch this video just to fall more in love with Gene and Julie all over again. So timeless, so simple, so lovely. ❤️
I remember this TV special with Julie Andrews and Gene Kelly when I was a child. It was special indeed. Julie has the voice, Kelly has the moves, and they meet each other perfectly half way.
man, if these two were on dancing with the stars and american or canadian idol, they would win both at the SAME TIME!
I love these two. so good together.
Not afraid to admit Gene Kelly was such a looker when he was younger.
The two most graceful people ever.
So cute. Anything with Julie Andrews is magical.
Amazing!! Omg I love her dress!!

These Greats, they ARE a gift. Gift for people who know, what is true art of singing and dancing.
Che tempi meravigliosi! From Italy, Florence. Anna❤
She is sooo graceful. How I want to dance like that!! (And I LOVE that dress!)
Too bad they didnt make a movie together it would have been heavenly
Or luverly.
Or simply supercalifragilisticexpialidocious~
I can't imagine how many times this has been said, but will it ever get old?
Probably two of the most talented musical actors ever to live, together on one stage is just magic. Why directors never begged them to do a movie together is certainly beyond me.
They are so light on their feet! I wish people danced like that nowadays!
This old videos of sing and dance are pasting the smile on my face. They just so lovely and artistic. Nothing is quite like this nowadays.
I wish people still danced like this
Two most talented people who has ever or ever will live.
Yes he is lovely and I love her movies and oh what a voice they both have.
I just watched Anchors Aweigh a few days ago, a musicalmovie with Gene Kelly AND Frank Sinatra. it was made in 1945, but it was a great movie. Hope thay one day make it on dvd. Or hope that TCM will send it again so I can record it. REALLY HOPE SO =D
Greatest duo in the history of Television? Um, Yes. =)
She killed it.
What a delight to watch them at this time of my life…thank you for posting💐🥳🇨🇦
Lord, remember when people had talent? Thank you for posting!
If I was a dancer in a younger time, the dress Julie Andrews wears would have been a dress I would have loved to wear. What a lovely site.
Whatever 'it' is - both of these classy people have it in great abundance.
Wow! This is wonderful! Beautiful Dance and Song, Thanks for sharing this!
@ImSingingInTheRain15
Loving music like this does not make you weird. It shows that you are a young person with classy tastes. How wonderful for you!
Julie is a natural! The way she interacts with whoever she's onstage with is so endearing! Makes everything she does beautiful & heartwarming!
mlc HC
You right just watch her on the Andy Williams Show
omg !!!! i almost fainted when i saw this! its so adorable to see them perform together!!:):)
absolutely beautiful, graceful and so very classy. the days of past.
You are blessed to have had a grandmother like that!
love both of these true stars, have never seen this scene, its amazing gives you such faith in nostalgia, and quality artists
Class at it`s best.......who says it has to be raunchy to be good? I grew up watching Gene Kelly and always wish I could dance like him.
If having your tastes makes one weird then sign me up. This a wonderful clip. More grace and elegance in two minutes than in two hours of DWTS.
this is so awesome.
wonderful, i love it.
she is absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love her. in in the middle of her autobiography "home" and she has such an amazing story!!!!! ahhhh i love her
Why these two never did a musical together - is such a shame!!! These two are amazing apart, but together it's spellbinding!
Absolute class by two all-time greats!
These great perfomer's are very very woundrful !
Excellent!
Julie andrews is really charming. I love her voice, the way she dances. And her dress of course!
I'm gonna see her in London and I can't wait!
These 2 were wonderful in their day
Lovely! ;) and timeless...
fantastic book :) Im halfway through reading it the second time and im only thirteen!
Can't stop watching, love it so much! Dreamy and enticing, the music and the talent that will live forever!
Two of my favorite actors EVER. Julie Andrews is a queen, no doubt about it.
This was amazing. I totally loved it. Gene Kelly is my favourite male star. I also love Julie Andews.
He still had it at 53. What a dream guy!
Lovely ! Wish people were still like this
Not weird at all! You can help keep their memories alive I regret I didn't pay more attention in the '70s when they were all still here and young enough to be performing on TV! I was only 2 or 3 when this show with Julie and Gene aired, so I wouldn't remember it, but it's so wonderful it's on TH-cam for those of us too young or not around at the time!

I love Julie Andrews, God Bless her always
A crazy dream... sing like Julie Andrews and dance with Gene Kelly... Magnificent! :D
Julie has always been so beautiful! Love her!
I admire her talents - I wish I could be like her someday...
I was born just in time...59... I was a kid but I got to enjoy many a good film with Gene Kelly... ahh the good old days.
Thanks for posting this! Gene Kelly had such sensitive feet! They were always stretched and finished. The sign of a great dancer! And Julie Andrews used her mouth beautifully. Small details that make them such great artists forever!
These two are absolutely amazing!! :)
It's amazing how she managed to look so feminine, elegant and attractive while dressing so modestly!!!
God they dance so so so well together :)
It's beautiful, and these two both have talent that just cannot be taught.
Absolutely flawless :')
I could watch them for hours!
This woman amazes me in every video. I knew she was a wonderful singer but I didn't realize she could dance that well.
Things were no different back then. Everything happened behind closed doors and life was far more repressed. I'm glad to be here now then back then honestly. Grass and being greener...comes to mind..
Oh wow, I've never seen this before...but I was only 5 at the time... thanks for sharing the magic 💖
I really wish The Julie Andrews Hour would be Publish in DVD! Julie's acting, singing & dancing each week, her humor & creativity interacting with here amazing guests are to die for! We need shows like hers these days
Wonderful !! Thank you SO much for the gift, I never had any opportunity to see this amazing duo before ! ^_^
Sono sempre stati fantastici come dimenticare lei! Una meravigliosa ed i inimitabile Mary Poppins
Wow that endless walk to the back of the stage must've been torture...to be embraced like that and remain in step!
Just love this so much...makes me feel so good.
The best voice on the planet and the best feet (dancing) on the planet!! what an absolute treat!!
I can't agree more!! Julie Andrews is ONE AMAZING LADY!
BEAUTIFUL. .....a hope our true ballet, jazz and tap classes are not turning into a lost art!!!*:)
this is the first time ever that i have ever added a comment to anything.... I have just been to see debbie reynolds do her show at the apollo in London and I went on line to look at some stuff and stumbled across this....ahhhh. her voice is lovely and he has sort of got it...I love them anyway
Impresionante la talentosa Julie Andrews, excelente actriz, cantante y bailarina❤❤❤
Can I at least dream I can dance like that?
They are so perfect dancing together.
Love, love, love these two! So professional.
