The Greatest Broadway singer and performer of all time ! Ethel Merman needs to be recognized now more than ever. She is still sadly missed !!!!!!
There will never be another one! No one will ever top this woman, she is classic, she is a legend! She should’ve had many more Tonys, losing the gypsy Tony was a big slap in the face!! As well as the movie!
An astounding career. Everyone wanted to work on a Merman show. From the composers/lyricists to the directors, to the dancers, the entire backstage crew, the front of the house as well. Damn rare on Broadway to be able to relax for awhile about those rent checks, the child support, the water and garbage bill, and still be able to afford Christmas or buy school clothes at the end of summer. But if you got work in a Merman Show, you knew you had a sure paycheck for longer than just about anybody else. With her on the Marquee, you would not need to come up with new excuses for long time.
Love the Merm and damn few can top her "Everything's Coming up Roses" she is a theatre legend!!
Ms Merman is an icon. At least to me. 😘
Wow! She really had to work for that Tony that night! :-)
Highlights from this appearance have been posted before - but here we see the whole wonderful Merman presentation with Larry Blyden and Hal Lyndon as her two terrific chorus boys. Again and again she scores in ballads, rhythm songs, comedy numbers, and thrilling anthems. She was a phenomenon who continues to have a lasting influence on today's up and coming Broadway performers. Thank goodness television and sites like this keeps alive Merman's divine legacy.
The Great Ethel Merman!
Love her ...Love her...Love her
I'm a huge Merman fan. Amazing video. I love it. Thanks so much from my heart.
And to think that The Merm was 64 when this was recorded!
GLORIOUS to see the full segment!! Thank you Matt for posting!
A labor of love, my friend! Thanks for watching!
This is a treat to see complete segment
This is incredible. Thank you:)
Miss elthle merman, was the queens of Broadway, also she's can still sings for a aging, singer's, other's grps, can't touched this woman, she's a divas n... her's primed,
Great job putting this together from clips of varying quality. One question: why does "leave out the cherry" get a laugh? (from Panama Hattie).
Poor Larry Blyden trying to sing that duet which was originally written to showcase Ethel . . he's a trooper but you can barely hear him. He's just a prop, like that gun was.
This was at least partially the result of Merman publicly complaining that she had never won a Tony, even though she had in fact won Best Actress in a Musical for "Call Me Madam".
Can't they revitalize the whole presentation instead of 3 clips
I heard rumors a nother artisited had chatted abouts, ethle merman, Tommy devito, former lead man's, the fours seasons, Frankie Valli, Bob Gaudio, and other's one's, I forgotten his names, he's had passed died the yrs, 1980s not should maybe I mistaken, r.p.n.
