Bing Crosby - Send In The Clowns (Parkinson, August 30th 1975) 

Wow! The most beautiful man and singer that I think I've ever witnessed. I'm still drying my eyes. MORE PLEASE!!!!!!!

There will never be a bigger star than Bing! 41 No. 1 records (43 including the second and third chart-toppings of “White Christmas”) - more than The Beatles (24) and Elvis Presley (18). His recordings reached the charts 396 times, more than Frank Sinatra (209) and Elvis Presley (149) combined. He was the singer of 13 Oscar nominated songs, four of which won. His radio show was one of the most successful, airing 4000 times (1931-1962). He scored three best actor nominations winning once for Going My Way. He was the top box office actor for several years in the 1930s and 1940s, and in actual ticket sales is the number three leading man of all time behind Clark Gable and John Wayne. Bing Crosby was the first multimedia star of Vaudeville, Radio, Recording, and Film. In the 1950s, he became a most celebrated television star. His career that began in the 1920s and exploded in the early 1930s continued until his death in 1977. His career is one of the most interesting to explore.

Fantastic song. Fantastic voice. Combined = magic.

I was only 9 years old in 1975 ,I always loved Bing Crosby, he was one of the best singers back then ,may he ,R.I.P! 😢🙏🕊

Just Wonderful

I used to listen to Bing Crosby since the early fifties as he was one of my Dad’s very favourites! Awesome Singer!

J'ai toujours aimé ses chants de Noël. Il a une voix exceptionnelle. Merci monsieur !

What a voice

I was 27 in 1975. I have always liked Bing. He put feeling into his songs.

Incredible arrangement and the flowery orchestration

EXCELENTE VERSION , DE ESTA BELLA CANCION DE SONDHEIN.- ME GUSTA MUCHO LA VERSION DE SINATRA.-

How can a little guy like Bing have one of the most powerful voices there ever was.

Magnificent performance.

What a Legend

As great as ever

Thank you for sharing this. I’m so blessed to have experienced those times.

Υπέροχη φωνή

There are 3 singers throughout history that moves me the most, and this is one of them. The other two being Elvis Presley and Jussi Björling. All 3 of them completely different singers, but all masters at their craft. When singing at the highest level is made to look as easy as simply breathing, then you know you're looking at a master. Just as Bing is doing here. He is truly missed.

Bing Crosby Frank Sinatra han sido los dos más grandes cantantes melódicos del siglo XX en inglés

Born in the 50’s , the rat pack and their songs. Such a viice

Fourteen months after this performance, Bing died. I also love this music.

...Sacred Song!!!...

What a brilliant crooner 😊

Such an easy delivery.

What he did for race relations is not mentioned enough . When he was the biggest star in America he would duet with Louis Armstrong when that type of thing just wasn't done. Not to mention his impact on the recording industry by using tape recorders. Incredible talent and probably my favourite entertainer of the 20th century.

And the sad part is that three years later, Bing Crosby departed this life....... Who could have known? At least from his point of view, he died doing something he loved - he was playing golf. One of Bing's favourite songs will forever remind me of that fateful day - "Straight Down The Middle" and that's where he was, on the fairway of a golf course in Spain, driving a shot, straight down the middle.

Never underestimate the effort that goes into making it look effortless.

Just like a smooth drinking chocolate ❤

He is 72 years old here

He adored Jolson, sang with him too.

There’s another lovely duet with David Bowie

Love Bing. Look Up his Unchained Melody. It’s my favorite recording of his.

I love Bing Crosby. I understand Sondheim originally intended Send in the Clowns for his male lead. Bing makes it his

Judy Collins 1975 hit version must have inspired Bing to record this. He also covered another hit by Colllins, Both Sides Now.

❤

Probably silly but I've always wondered if on the day we lose great talent like this is if they are reborn with this talent in a new baby born the same day they die.

😮

I'm a brother listening...

Şahane videoları var neden göremiyorum.

Effortless singing.

*******

Rather strange orchestral arrangement. Someone was too busy.

Is it me or does he go slightly off time at the line “losing my timing this late in my career?”
