Just voices….just music…so beautiful! How I miss this sort of entertainment! So - many thanks to all the posters on YT who help me slip back into a much sweeter past!!💕
Can’t get enough of this particular performance, So classic, so Romantic, the Perfect Romantic Love Song Performance of ALL times!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🥰 Great Chemistry between them. Just to show how nice it is back in the day, when Men where real Gentlemen and Women were simply Classically Beautiful!😍
It's just amazing. I love how her extraordinary singing voice manages to make magic with Burt's voice. He was not a "great" singer, but he rather used his voice to sketch out the songs. And it's just so charming together.
I've been watching this performance on RU-vid since 2011 when I discovered it by accident. And I'm still watching this in 2023. No matter how you say it. No matter what language you say it in. Simply put it's all about the look, the look of love that is.
This is by far one of my favorite songs, but to have the composer then perform with someone with the talent and beauty of Vikki Carr, who makes it her own in her native tongue. Wow!
¡ TOTALMENTE DE ACUERDO CONTIGO. SIEMPRE ME GUSTÓ VIKKI CARR COMO CANTANTE Y CON SU SERENA BELLEZA .QUE DIOS LA BENDIGA Y NOS DE LA ALEGRÍA DE SU FECUNDA EXISTENCIA COMO INTERPRETE EXCEPCIONAL !
Actually Spanish has never been her native tongue. English has always been her first language. Even she has said many times that she needs to practice her Spanish more often. She was born in the USA, but she is of Mexican descent.
Wow. I could’ve said those exact words myself. My parents always had Bacharach on the “stereo”. I was no doubt the only kid in the neighborhood who knew those songs and dared sing them. My parent’s music was a huge influence on me. They’re also responsible for introducing me to the Carpenters-a life long obsession. I studied and sang professionally. I lost Mom last month. I flew home for our last visit and though she was barely conscious, I leaned over her bed, cradled her head and with teary eyes softly sang some of the songs we used to sing together 50 yrs earlier. I don’t know if she heard me. But it was therapeutic for me
Love how these videos, and there are many of them, give us a certain intimacy between composer and singer, the sense of connection that you can feel and makes the song really come across. Cannot think of anything today on TV that shows anything close, or even related; the intimacy has been replaced with dancers acting like strippers.
Not just brazen, just plain grotesque.... My cousin showed me some You Tube vids of current pop and it's all half naked women singing perverted songs and shaking their butts. Sad state of affairs.
Maybe it's because he's not an actual singer. Because of his extraordinary musical talent and charisma I've always been prepared to be tolerant of any vocal frailties on his part.
I truly love this song and have reflected on it on those decades' rare eye-locking moments. This rendition is fabulous due to Vikki's subline voice, style and grace, and a not-so-young Burt, on the other hand, reminds me of my earlier rake days, not so elegant and even appears a little guilty...
Precioso video! It's lovely the mixture of their voices and how they made it sound great in English as well in Spanish. I didn't know in Spanish this great song called La llama de tu amor.
I've never heard this song in Spanish. Interesting, but it doesn't work nearly as well. Vicki has a great voice, but it's not best for this song which demands a more sultry soulful interpretation. Dusty's rendition remains the gold standard.
Burt Bacharach its the best music in the after and before years in the universe, and whit Vikki Carr are two tremends artists!!!!, Love you for ever and ever Burt!!!
The world lost one of the greatest music writers of all time. He had charisma, imagination, passion, an incredible talent. Makes me want to cry. I think he satisfied my OCD with his music lol.
Great! After all these years I didn't know of this duet between Vikki and Burt. Vicki been the good singer that she is, Burt the great composer that he was. No tenía conocimiento de este dueto entre entre Vikki y Burt. Vikki la buena cantante que es ella, Burt el gran compositor que fue.
Was there in the audience of the love. Vicki Carr live at the Greek Theater in 1973. Longestet concert I can remember. And I had to work in the morning. Thank God for being young.
YES, THEY REALLY GIVE OFF THIS FELLING OF INTERPERSONAL FIRE. BURT HAD FOUR WIVES : PAULA STEWART, ANGIE DICKINSON, CAROLE BAYER SAGER AND JANE HANSON. ✨ SURELY, HE AND VIKKI CARR WOULD A GREAT COUPLE ✨
@@reginacelycabral4384 YES ! MOMENTO MUSICAL MARAVILHOSO E ATEMPORAL. SINCRONICIDADE PERFEITA ENTRE O MAESTRO BURT BACHARACH E A TALENTOSÍSSIMA CANTANTE VIKKI CARR 🎼🎵🎶🌷🌷🎶🎵🎼
