We should as a civilisation celebrate a century of the life and works of a beautiful and talented lady, yet such kindness is ignored because in this decade there are those with no talent, skill or ability who succeed in convincing the human race that some subhuman has "talent", and there are quite literally hundreds of millions who believe them.
I felt sorry for the poor bloke sitting by himself so happy, drinking a pint, near the end.....seemed like he was happy enough, all by his lonesome, bless his soul...
@@seannaylor5803 Thanks for responding, regards that you commented 7 years after I posted that comment, and only on you tube do you see that, I feel like we are communicating from the Star Acturus 3.5 light years away X2 = 7 years
Last year I went to a café in the mid morning. There were 13 customers - one couple and 11 men (including me) sitting at 11 different tables. That bloke is no exception.
Her feeling for her music has always been remarkable. She always establishes a mood vocally and physically. She is always on key, always has perfect intonation, has impeccable pronunciation and of course there is that catch in her voice. She also has a remarkable range. She certainly had a gorgeous figure and wore clothes fabulous. She wasn't classically beautiful but there's no question the camera loved her. And that flawless complexion!
One must remember that although this is from a record, those old records are still live recordings. As a total non-singer in an auto-tuned world -- who can barely leave a decent voice mail without wanting to delete it -- I'm always amazed that someone can have pitch and range like this on a single take.
If you live in Los Angeles, California there is one place like this. It's called the Cicada Club with live big bands, food, drinks, and dancing like back in the 20-40's.
Is there anyone who can compare to Vera Lynn? What an incredible and beautiful voice! She has such a beautiful and plaintive quality to her singing. They don't make singers like her anymore. A true star!
I agree with Eddy2730...I love this music. Reminds me of happier days when the country pulled together and family values were very meaningful. I was a very young child during the wwII days, but brings back such wonderful memories. I too have a tear in my eye. The really greats are gone and so are those days.
After the rain, The sun will dry all your tears Blue skies appear After the rain Your window pane, May show a world that is gray Clouds drift away After the rain For the world is always brighter When its weathered a heavy storm And our hearts are always lighter After teardrops have had to fall Sunshine again Will greet the world with a smile Life seems worthwhile After the rain Thunder and falling rain Are driving us all in the same But when it's done The sun will soon be shining Again After the rain... Dry all your tears Blue in the sky soon appears After the rain... Your window pane May show a world that is gray Clouds drift away After the rain For the world is always brighter When its weathered a heavy storm And our hearts are always lighter After teardrops have had to fall Sunshine again Will greet the world with a smile Life seems worthwhile After the rain
Does anybody else think that a great singer of the next generation, the beautiful Judith Durham, has something in common with Vera Lynn? Something about both the tone quality/beauty of their voice, as well as their technique and control.
Sadly, they are not commercially available. Rhythm Serenade and We'll Meet Again have been shown on BBC television in the UK within the past 20 years, but her last film, One Exciting Night, was known some years ago to be in serious need of preservation.
Yeah I think people get this type of experience more in coffee houses (with live music) nowadays more than in bars (even those with live music) Just a more refined sensibility.
so the man sitting down is actually an actor in this movie and also wearing a kilt, I'm getting closer to finding out his name. could be Ronald Ward, or Donald Gray,
Vera Lynn, Finest singer of her generation, if not all time! I MUST see her 3 movies, Doe's anyone know where one might find/buy them? I will not rest until I've found them. This clip may be from "We'll Meet Again"(1942) 10 Plus
I saw Vera at a function for the RAFA in Manchester, we were on the front row. I was trying to eat a meal but she kept looking at me every time I got a chip half-way to my lips. I must have been a very handsome 18 year old because she kept singing to me and smiling and my chips went cold! Lovely lady with a lovely old song
Very rare to see video footage of her singing, one of my all time favourite vocalists - listening to her flawless technique really started me wanting to sing. I was lucky enough to be able to pay tribute her tutoring recently while fronting a uk based dance band - hopefully I did her proud... Do come and check it out fellow Vera fans on my page! x
im trying to find some footage or any photographs or information about someone who sang with Vera Lynn in the early 40s. i only know her name is Rita something. i would love to find out more as this particular lady is my father-in-law's mother and it would be nice to see some music by both of them. they did performances in London together. if anyone can help me that would be great :)
I dunno if ur Australian or not, but down under there is a company called ancestry.com that can trace your family history and find documents (such as perhaps theatre timetables etc) about your ancestors. However u do need to pay though...
