Al Martino - Spanish Eyes (1967) 

I adore the images this great recording conjures up in the mind. She must have been truly gorgeous.......

What an amazing history. Holy smokes. Congratulations to both of you, all of you!

Most beautiful song ever

Hermosa canción! 🥰💖🎶🎵

Bravo

Beautiful powerful voice. Stunning performance and connection with the camera and studio audience. Ah...the memory of Al Martino. R.I.P ❤⚘⚘⚘

No one sings this song better than Al Martino.

Linda -- My thoughts exactly.

we all feel sorry for you baby

@@tomtonge4237 but you're here listening and commenting which makes you pretty sad, at least own your tastes in music instead of making shitty comments to try to make yourself sound more with it, more like the younger generation which you clearly aren't a part of or you'd realise nobody cares what you like or dislike because it's more important to be yourself. Enjoy or more likely go find some other golden oldie to listen to and comment negatively to prop up your own ego.

@@poppaleggansquat3640 Well said.

@@1524dav thanks, some people aren't happy unless they're slapping others down. Keep enjoying anything that makes you happy and be lucky!

My Dad also died in 2021 - we had Al Martino's Spanish Eyes growing up too (on 8-track if I remember correctly).

young kiwi kid (16) school social (prom) wow ,the girls had pleated dresses & they rustled! Hey Hey from New Zealand

This is very , very nice and LIVE singing ! I like Al Martino ! And yes , I have covered him ( on my own way ) A lot of greets , Arthur !

Grew up listening to these songs. Never gets old.

David Duran, maybe you could be the one to start that process.

I agree with you. Just one little comment: It's '50s and '60s music, NOT the way you wrote it. Apostrophes are NEVER used in plurals (except when pluralising certain units used in the sciences what would otherwise be confused with other units, for example, m for meters when pluralised would become ms, but ms is already taken and it means milliseconds, so to avoid confusion and apostrophe is inserted, thus making the plural for meters m's). The apostrophe is used only in two situations, normally: to signal that something has been omitted (as in '50s, where it replaces the missing 19), and to imply ownership (as in: my brother's car is blue).

@@xavieryates9782 I know, ...but, REALLY?

My children aged alike are actually switching to these songs as they keep hearing me listening!

DON;T WAIT TOO

My father & mother in law had this at their funerals , they loved it . 💓

Hello from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪. My father is 86 he sings this song every single Sunday since 1981. He plays his oldies and it’s going to be played till the day I die.

Mm ake a search for this song "spanish eyes" with Tom Walle , from Norway 🇸🇯😀

Thank goodness for technology. Greatings from SOUTH AFRICA 28 June 2024 ❤❤❤

Well said.

That's because it is !

Awesome music...enjoy it

👍

Try german version sung by Ivo Robic - Rot ist der Wein. Much better voice

I totally agree with you Doc! He had class using his powerful voice to show it.

Best. To Shure

Here I go. Crying again

He had a lot of competition. I mean, there were 4 or 5 Italians ahead of him -Sinatra, Dino, Bennett, Como. Not to mention a slew of non-Paisans. Tons of talent in the 40s, 50s, and 60s.

@@wheelinthesky300 I would not place Martino anywhere but AHEAD of the Italian heritage vocalists you mentioned, especially Sinatra, who was a much better actor than singer. You left out his greatest rivals, Jerry Vale and Vic Damone! I rank them as equals. And last but not least, Mario Lanza!...who was actually an opera singer who also sang pop songs. He wasn't a crooner like the others, but his powerful tenor voice was second to none. He had no greater rival than Franco Bonisolli. Google his aria from Rigoletto by Giuseppe Verdi on the you tube. Peace to an obvious fellow connoisseur of great music.

Grigger Bless Yous ❤️⭐️🙏🏼

Oh! Bless you and your grandparents, dear. Mine are gone. I miss them every day of my life....😘

Well done al martino it couldn't be better you got a velvet voice

Don't cry, remember your Grandpa and what he feel hearing this song, he was happy, so be happy too. I think that's what your Grandpa would want.

@@uweschreiber8226 god bless you. you have a very big heart and it will continue during your life.

How nice!!!

What a voice p

Interesting- what was Al like face to face?

Wow, what an incredible experience that sounds like, very very special !

Mine too😢 God bless you ❤

Yes it's Al Martino's song, others can only borrow it.

Wow. Played this at my father's funeral who was also from Romney Marsh, St Nicholas Road for 40 years, me lived there for 25 years, lovely place

Awesome...... Agreed!!! xx

Elvis covered this the closest in my opinion

Vous avez raison. C'est magique.

I have loved music like this since I was a teenager brought up on it.

Those were the good old days when people dressed on sundays more formally.Now they go even in a theater in blue jeans.Somehow a loss. AS KIDS WE DIDN'T REALLY LIKE IT BECAUSE WE WERE SUPPOSED TO SPARE OUR GOOD CLOATHES FROM GETTING DIRTY.

Hello from Texas. Music is international and ageless. I am 73. I pray always for your part of the world to be at peace. And for the beautiful Balkan people to ALL be at peace. 🌹

So sorry for your loss. I lost my Dad to cancer 2015

My mom's favorite song too. She'd cry every time she heard it. My mom was Mexican

My Mother's favorite too... She passed away in 1971 at the age of 37. She would listen to it on our RCA record player, over and over...
