Two great human beings doing what God created them to do, and doing it so gloriously, it lasts and lasts and lasts. THAN WHICH IT GETS NO BETTER THAN!!!!
Brilliant,amazing a thousand thumbs up. Thank you so much for posting this I could watch 1000 times over and never get tired of it. Thank you so much for posting this.
The more I watch this kind of television I realize how professional the stars WERE. After all, even though the show was recorded, it was done LIVE before an audience with no lip-syncing and no post-show fixing. Dennis
I've talked with people who worked with Kate Smith and they said she knew more than anyone--producer, director, cameraman, lighting director, whatever--about getting a show right and she made sure everything WAS right. As a woman she was way, way ahead of her time because she was not afraid to take charge. She also lived a supersized life; she had an enormous range of interests, was a self-characterized sports nut and loved driving her own car here and there. Nothing ever dull about Kate!
Great stuff by 2 pros. And may I add to Waynebrasier's comment "She believed she owed her audience perfection"..you said it! You sure don't get that feeling from most of the "entertainers" performing nowadays. Thanks, TEFSHOW, for sharing this treat with YOU TUBE.
It all looks so casual, so much fun but believe me, they are rehearsed to the last detail. This number is just terrible to do because the singer easily falls into doing the other singer's part. Kate believed in bringing to each song a demeanor and a mood which suited the song. She's bouyant here but I'm sure in rehearsal she was highly focused. She believed she owed her audiences perfection.
Kate Smith was just pure joy. 😊
Fun! Fun! Fun! You just know they like and admire each other. Hard song to sing, I think, but Kate, especially, is just perfect!
What a great voice ,I miss the old times,and I miss brother Ford

This song was from the 1950 Ethel Merman show "Call Me Madam". Biggest hit from the show!

She's an intimidating set up lungs

Would love to have seen her in rehearsal. Kate makes all her performances so easy and graceful!
