The way they look into eachothers eyes... you can tell they were so deeply in love.... Love like thiers only happens once in a persons lifetime. How sweet they r together and obviously so deep in love.
@Nenethegreat W You need to read Richard's Diary. Those two loved each other so much. How silly for you to suppose that they didn't. Read Richard Burton's Diary and find out how he felt about her. Read his letters to her after she left him. Read what she said about him. They adored each other and you saying they didn't doesn't mean much to anyone who knows. She is not buried next to him because his last wife wouldn't honor it. He loved Elizabeth. On August 2nd he wrote her a last love letter and said to her that wherever she was, was home, and he wanted to come home. He died on the 5th of August and she didn't receive the letter until she came home from his funeral. She couldn't help looking at him with love because she loved him so very much.
@@bjones3994 Yes. I agree. I read Richard's Diary too and other biographies. They loved passionately and fought the same. The irony of life is that you can love too much. Every photograph I have seen Elizabeth Taylor looks at Burton with deep love. This cannot be faked even by a great actress.
How cute, Richard Burton seems almost nervous at first or a bit irritable but you can see they immediately fall into a certain ease singing together. Particularly towards the end just before they kiss, you can just tell they had a tremendous love life....
Rich and Elizabeth singing in Welsh priceless. I cry every time I see Rich lean over to kiss her. 'How to handle a woman? Love her, simply love her, merely love her, love her, love her." I hope they are together forever.
3 Royals, one American, one Welsh, & one English/American:) Royals indeed, TALENT more Indeed! What the hell happened to TV and Hollywood? Look at the crap today and come to RU-vid and look at gems like this.
this makes me cry every time i watch it in a good way . you dont get hollywood romance this E and Rich anymore miss you both . but through your work you will never leave us
She had a beautiful voice! I wonder why she never sang in her movies specially when so many were musicals back then. She is so stunning and he is so handsome and the way she looks at him!!!
What a charming clip. The two of them were the most gorgeous couple ever. That Welsh song is so sweet. There's a blog on the Paley Center (former Museum of TV and Radio) website that tells about the availability of the complete SDJ program, where the 3 of them also sing "What Do the Simple Folk Do?" from Camelot.
Thanks for sharing. This is a truly remarkable video clip. It was at the height of their romance and marriage. These two were THE Power couple of the 60's and 70's.
This is what you call unabashed on a shame Humanity is something that Elizabeth definitely displayed while people were so fixated on her jewelry marriages and looks here she is in a time when holding hands with a so-called negro could be a straight-up scandal she does it on national TV without even flinching taking time to help a friends fledgling television show obtain ratings and bringing glamour on this show and in the very segregated 60s I have really come to adore and appreciate this Legend who was way ahead of her time and maybe more beautiful inside than out I wish I had a chance to meet her I spent most of my teenage years by my mother White Diamonds perfume and presents for my mother and grandmother because they love it so much look at her beautiful self not to mention the humanity and bravery she was about to become associated with in the 1980s when AIDS was a taboo homosexual some even thought negro disease she fought head-on and raised money tirelessly way before Ryan White funding was available she did whatever she had to do to raise money for AIDS patience and research and for this and with this said I hope that Elizabeth Taylor is resting peacefully but if Richard or Mike is in heaven with her she probably is not resting at all being that they were the Great loves of her life LOL love you lady Mau and your ideals and Humanity live on for years to come
Funny thing is that Richard Burton kind of denied he was a welsh speaker, never spoke publicly in Welsh. But you can tell that from the song that he could speak Welsh really well.
I'm still not clear how well she could sing, but he certainly can. She sounded fine between harmonies. This was lovely, although we don't know what the words mean.
"Elizabeth Taylor" Miss Charm!.. She is, the same one, shining, hypnotically beckoning and inaccessible, from us inexorably retreating Universe "Elizabeth - Woman of Women". I can’t help but admire you. I look at the screen - and tears drip. The thunder of enthusiastic applause has subsided - You appeared in the world, being great prose!.. Blue eyes, their bottomless depths, Conquered the souls of giants. Internally - gullible and modest. Externally - the noise of the palace fountain! From a calm note to an inner tear - Sometimes she was obedient, sometimes naughty ... She is cute and enchanting, fabulously beautiful! - Refined feminine forms. Exciting our blood with its charisma, With the gift of sensual hypnosis - Sometimes, she quickly flew like a comet, through life - Sometimes, our beauty just blossomed, being a shy rose: Caravel among fishing boats; Queen, in the midst of ordinary people; Cleopatra! - Passionately, but with genuine care... Her femininity radiated everywhere! Having absorbed life with a field blade of grass, Keeping the spirit - with a share of the lovely eccentricity of the wind, by the bird - Shining with witchcraft nature, Great! “She is a true sovereign!” Woman - a shining world; Mother-night of the universal beginning - With the light of the moon, she has silvered us, She sanctified us with crystal clearness!.. She swam softly through the sky like a young month. She smiled at us in a pink sunset ... The time of triumph has stopped - It was marked by thunder and lightning! October 9 - 10, 2019 (K.S.) St. Petersburg Original «Элизабет Тейлор» Мисс Очарование!.. Она же - есть, та самая, блистающая, гипнотически притягивающая и недосягаемая, от нас неумолимо удаляющаяся Вселенная «Элизабет - Женщина Женщин». Не могу тобой не восхищаться. Гляну на экран - роняю слёзы. Замер гром восторженных оваций - Ты явилась в мир великой прозой!.. Синью глаз, их глубиной бездонной, Покоряла души великанов. Внутренне - доверчива и скромна. Внешне - шум дворцового фонтана! От спокойной нотки до надрыва - То, была прилежною, то вздорной… Феерична, сказочно красива! - Утончённы женственные формы. Будоража кровь, своей харизмой, Обладая чувственным гипнозом - То неслась кометою по жизни - То цвела застенчивою розой: Каравелла, средь рыбацких лодок; Королева, средь простого люда; Клеопатра! - Страстно, но с заботой Источала женственность, повсюду!.. Жизнь впитав травинкой полевою, Дух храня - с чудинкой ветра, птицей - Осияв природой колдовскою, Величавой! - Подлинной царицей! Женщина - блистающего мира; Матерь-ночь вселенского начала - Лунным светом нас осеребрила, Освятила чистотой кристалла!.. Месяцем по небу прокатилась, Улыбнулась розовым закатом… Время торжества - остановилось, Разразилось грозовым раскатом! 9 - 10 октября 2019 год (К.С.) СПб
Elizabeth was obviously a huge star for many yeas before she and Richard got together. He was well known too, but I will always associate them together. When I hear either of them names to this day, I think of them together, can't help it. Like "peas & carrots."
Thank you for this wonderful clip. Aww they were so beautiful together and so much in love. At first when she said she wanted to sing a song I thought they were joking. I am glad they didn't as that was really sweet...I wonder what they were singing about?
If you type 'Ar lan y mor' into the youtube search box it will come up with many examples of it sung by different Welsh artists and even choirs. I quite like the one sung by Cerys Matthews of the group Catatonia.
Heavens to Murgatroyd ! I never knew Sammy Davis Jr had a TV series ! Though they did not emit the raw sexual energy of screen power couple Wallace Beery & Marie Dressler, Elizabeth Taylor & Richard Burton certainly had a whole lotta charisma !
