"Everything's Coming Up Roses" ~ Ethel Merman (JFK inaugural gala, 1961) 

She always delivered!

So sad so many hopes we're there that day🎉

You talk about a class act.....that was pure class, and not an act. Awesome performance by an awesome lady.

How I wish they did not do the overlays or the voice overs in this clip because seeing Merman singing EVERYTHING'S COMING UP ROSES in the plaid coat and with the original full arrangement and orchestration give us a strong idea of what her performance of this song was night after night in GYPSY. What a star, what a song, what a president!

She always delivers

Incredible!

That's quite the clever commentary starting at 3:08 when, as Ethel Merman sings "momma is gonna see to it," a very pregnant Jackie Kennedy is shown standing next to her husband, the new president.

Twenty years later she sang the same song at the Reagan gala

Is there any way you can post this full PBC documentary? I can't find it anywhere online.
