I’m not Italian in any way, shape, or form but I just love this kind of music! The music of Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Frank Sinatra Jr and Sammy Davis will always be top tier.
Used to have a cat, Nicky, that loved Dean Martin music. Anytime my wife played it he'd come running and she'd pick him up and dance around the room with him purring. He died Christmas of '23 just shy of 20 years old. My wife died of a mild flu in January '24 at the age of 52. This song is another must for my nostalgia playlist.
Dean is the greatest of all times. His eyes are always smiling. He has the most charming eyes and face. He was always laughing and having fun. I love you Dean, more than life itself.
- La meilleure version C’est sans aucun doute Dean Martin , il a la voix suave et le rythme 🎵 , personne ne peut rivaliser son talent et sa sensibilité vocale !….❤
Thank you Mom and Dad for exposing me to this wonderful music! Growing up in the 1970/80's I found lot's of different kinds of music I loved! Big band's, rat pack, classical, rock, punk, etc.
My grandpa passed away recently. He used to sing this song to me every time I saw him when I was a child. I don’t think I ever heard the original until now. He was the best.
is it just me or does old Italian singers like Dean Martin remind you of the similarities between Italian and Spanish/Hispanic (and also a little Portuguese) cultures?
@DeanMartinTV hi, i'm from italy, and some italian words are incorrect.. :) hey goomba.. 'hey cumpà' e lo che se dice.. 'e lo che si dice' hey chadrool.. 'hey ciadrul' anyway, i LOVE DEAN MARTIN.
Of course as you all know Dean martin was Italian and spoke fluently. He spoke only Italian at home as a boy. This 'Goombah' was New York slang (etymology, from the Italian) and he was saying it that way.
It's not actually that hard to learn Italian if you know English, the grammar is very easy so maybe you should try it, heck, in a lot of jobs they'll pay more for someone who is multilingual
Had my ear phones in listening to a friend playing the fuitar and decided to slowly turn this on! He casught me singing along and wasnt too happy! Haha Dean Martin you get me into so much trouble!!!
He was the best. And from what I read a really nice guy. Had about 7 kids. When Dino was in a air crash with the F4 phantom he piloted for the California national guard. It really broke him. Someone asked. Him how are you doing. While sitting in the Italian restaurant he ate in often. He replied just sitting around waiting to die. Wonderful singer and entertainer. He made so many people happy. Never had a sour puss on him when he entertained
When singing a broken-hearted song, he can managed to put a smile/laugh on the audience faces Not to mention singing Mambo Italiano! Everyone's dancing.😊 Simply Dean Martin.
