My favorite, "My Heart`s Symphony". I think I have all the 45`s as they came out. I am 5 yrs younger than Gary. In 65 when I wrote for a picture of Gary Lewis & The Playboys I received a picture of his Dad, Jerry whom I also love. I cam across some old newspapers in an old outbldg in Tenn & the mid to late 70`s Jerry said his son was chgd after Viet Nam. I served Air Force, jet mechanic. Still love Gary & Jerry....WalksAloneWolf
So Jerry Lewis describes this warm ideal relationship with his father, and reports are his own sons were terrified of him because of his emotional abuse. I wonder if his father ever saw that side of him. Something doesn't track.
Fun fact: Jerry left his estate to his second wife and daughter. HE HAD ALREADY LEFT ALL OF THE RIGHTS TO HIS FILMS AND ARCHIVED MATERIAL TO HIS SONS. Which do you think will continue to make money?
Plus, when Gary Lewis had a "substance abuse" problem, Jerry paid the proper people and kept it from the press. Gary Lewis was breaking into people homes and stealing drugs … plus more.
I am with you!!!!! When I look up these vids, it is to see Jerry Lewis the entertainer!!!! And...there are ALWAYS two sides to every story. If you think he's so terrible, DON'T WATCH HIM! Jeez, no one is MAKING you watch him. Gomslander someone else for a change. And yea, you are. You are not his kid with first hand accounts. And if you were, wow...that would even be SADDER. ; )
I never DENIED anything. And I have Googled Jerry Lewis and I KNOW he's not the most pleasant man in the world. BUT that doesn't mean I want to keep hearing how flawed of human he is. Is it too much to ask for me to just want to enjoy watching Jerry Lewis as an entertainer; WITHOUT hearing all the negative stuff. I'm not defending him. Yes, he's treated his sons horribly I understand that. I just wanted to watch something nice... I guess you and 'stayfrosty' just live to bring everybody down.
You are right Silly Gir, plus we don't know what happened! It's not our place to judge anybody! He always loved his sons and talked about them all the time! It's not our business. I love Jerry as well! He did so much for others. He was a great humanitarian and he made us laugh for a lifetime! He is a legend!
Jerry's kids and his wife were afraid of him. She would warn the kids when he was on his way home; he was physically abusive, treated them all like crap. Bullied Dean Martin too, but Dean broke it off. Waited too long in my opinion, he wasted years with Lewis when he could have been honing his singing skills. So many people have come forward and talked about working with him and how horrible he was. Even Patricia Routledge, star of Keeping Up Appearances in the UK, had a bad experience with him, and said "He is not funny".
Dean Martin ABANDONED his first wife with her three LITTLE children. Lewis died at 91, his children were grown up and they all had jobs! Jerry FOR YEARS gave his first wife a bang for sustenance. Dean Martin first wife left a lot of taxes to pay! But the villain is still Jerry Lewis!
@@patrickpieper8878 Of course ... DeanMartin did it all by himself! Jerry Lewis helped write the scripts for their skits while Dean Martin played golf. But it wasn't funny ... I would really like to understand all this hatred of Jerry Lewis, won't it be because he was Jewish?
I agree Patrick O'Riley! He loved his sons and talked about them all the time!! We don't know what happened between them and its not our business..We shouldn't judge
A lot of what he said is true. Jerry Lewis doesn't speak to any of his sons. Just Google Gary Lewis and you'll see the nasty things he says about his dad. He said Jerry was responsible for the death of his son (Gary's brother), Joseph, who was a drug addict. Jerry Lewis was a troubled guy. A lot of us are, right? What good does it do to deny it?
+tom kent So what if he disinherited his children that he had with Patti. And I'm sorry if I'm coming off rude, but I'm just sick of seeing it being made a big deal when there's plenty of celebs who have disinherited their children.
+ApocalypsePlough "Jerry Lewis was a troubled guy. A lot of us are, right? What good does it do to deny it?" Nobody's denying it, but constantly bringing it up like a broken record is annoying. Especially when Jerry has owned up to his mistakes, which most people don't have the balls to do. However, when you come on a video you expect to see comments pertaining to that video. And if we're all troubled, then what good does it do throwing stones at someone whose shoes you're not walking in? What good does it do judging someone when you're not a saint either? And anyway, I read somewhere that Gary and Jerry did eventually speak and that Gary was devastated by Jerry's death. So you see? Things can change. And what's in the past, is in the past.
Dean Martin also did not speak to his children. He was a LITTLE MORE connected with his son who died. Dean Martin didn't care about family, he just loved playing golf. And sleep with women. As an old man and already ill he dined alone at the usual restaurant. HE DIED ALONE AT THREE IN THE NIGHT. I got tired of reading constant attacks on Jerry Lewis while Dean Martin makes him pass for a saint! HE WAS NOT A SAINT! Dean Martin when he also abandoned Jerry (after having abandoned his first wife with three young children) said "You can talk about love as much as you want but to me it represents only the dollar sign". He knew how much Jerry loved him but he had no qualms about breaking his heart too!
Three generations of performers wow
How wonderful, to see the generation of talent.
This is adorable! Jerry's son is adorable!! (Has his father's chin!)
Yeah he doesn’t have his fathers money though
So it’s all about money.
Jerry broke my heart when he shunned his children, and grandchildren in death.😔
Usually its because of the current wife.
You must have believed everything you read
@@androsc1418 According to what I've seen Jerry's children say in televised interviews that is exactly what happened.
There's always another side of the story. I love Jerry no matter what
@@TheRivrPrncessagain, don't believe it. Because he had reasons.
Ahhh Mr. Lewis. If only I could travel back in time to watch you and Dean perform together.
O I love it!!! 3 generations of talent.
🫶🏼
Absolutely precious.
Wow. How cool to see the 3 generations.
Loved this!❤😂
A bunch of meshugganahs, but lovables ones. Wonderful clip and great fun. Wunderbar.

Oh god, his son is so perfect.
Just like Jerry
Got his manners from mother
This is so good. I'd rather see it with both versions complete and separate, though.
Version with Jerry's Father...
m.th-cam.com/video/bTQjI4T5UaY/w-d-xo.html
Version with Jerry's son (Gary Lewis) doing Jerry's old part ... and adorably funny at that ...
m.th-cam.com/video/jliPIgXykE0/w-d-xo.html
I love this
Unbelievably beautiful
Yes, an amazing rapport between Gary and his father, you can see the affection.
Yes but what happened to all that affection !!!!
@@vincentdefeo5917stage affection.
I love this. The sure are alike.
too cute! Jerry is the best!
Yes he was :)
Jerry Luis was blessed by a wonderful father and sons.
Too bad he turned his back on his first wife and 6 boy 👦
Terrific
His dad had lovely voice …
God bless them!
Oh god that was so awesome =D
So wonderful
Gente grande,maravillosos,talento puro
The lewis men are very talented
OMG! LOVE IT!
Sublimi!🤩💖
Gary was more a man then his so called father. Gary served our country. Thank you for your service!!!
The hatred is unbearable for a person who did his part to raise funds for people who needed them. I guess guys like F D Niro are angels
Gary Lewis was NOT a Vietnam Veteran !!! He was staioned in a safe, non combat area of Korea...
@@1953childstar You don't have to be in a war to serve.
I LOVE IT!!!! Lols awsome
How could Jerry disinherit his children and grandchildren?
So Jerry Lewis describes this warm ideal relationship with his father, and reports are his own sons were terrified of him because of his emotional abuse. I wonder if his father ever saw that side of him. Something doesn't track.
Yet Jerry left Gary, and his brothers, out of his will and instead gave everything to his second wife and adopted daughter.
And he had reason
Jerry and Gary
Fun fact: Jerry left his estate to his second wife and daughter. HE HAD ALREADY LEFT ALL OF THE RIGHTS TO HIS FILMS AND ARCHIVED MATERIAL TO HIS SONS. Which do you think will continue to make money?
Evidence to say he left his archive to his sons?
Plus, when Gary Lewis had a "substance abuse" problem, Jerry paid the proper people and kept it from the press. Gary Lewis was breaking into people homes and stealing drugs … plus more.
@@WillScarlet1991 Same. According to a televised interview, one son said Jerry took away all that they were supposed to inherit.
I agree with Lisa!
Rest in peace jerry your with your mom and dad and dean martin don rickles and foster Brooks and many others.
The laughs
Okie-dokie.
I am with you!!!!! When I look up these vids, it is to see Jerry Lewis the entertainer!!!! And...there are ALWAYS two sides to every story. If you think he's so terrible, DON'T WATCH HIM!

Despite the cuteness here, the bottom line is that Jerry was a bad human.
You never turn your back on your family. Never!
Cute
Did jerry ever talk about the death of his youngest son Joseph
Yes.
in an interview.
can see the strong resemblance between jerry and his father...and his son has his dimpled chin.
😭👍🏻
50 million dollars and he cut his sons and grandchildren out of his will. Wow.
I never DENIED anything. And I have Googled Jerry Lewis and I KNOW he's not the most pleasant man in the world. BUT that doesn't mean I want to keep hearing how flawed of human he is.

He didn’t leave his kids a dime .
Come from Maude 😂 season 5

Did you watch the video about him from vanity fair? Just type in vanity fair jerry lewis.
Jerry Lewis was only funny to Jerry Lewis. Oh yeh, he also left his sons out of his will. Nice guy.
He was funny to millions of people who believe he is a legend. His private life and his decisions are not for anyone to judge!
Odd that someone who wan't funny would be the more comedic half of the biggest act in show business...

This is too much!!!!
Jerry Lewis was dirty for not leaving that boy a dime, wrong,so much hate,why
There must have been a good reason. He was always supportive of Gary's career in the past. Maybe he felt he'd been betrayed?
I agree Patrick O'Riley! He loved his sons and talked about them all the time!! We don't know what happened between them and its not our business..We shouldn't judge
You do know that one of those sons was adopted?
A lot of what he said is true.
