Doris Day - It Might As Well Be Spring

[@markherron1407]

Rest in peace ✌️ Doris Day! Merry Christmas 🎄 Blessings and hugs 🤗💞🤗🙏!

[@Genetivetexan]

Every guy's sweetheart of that era - and the best all-around entertainer ever!

[@manfreadstraw]

Her voice is timeless -- it'll still sound as good when we all visit the Moon, then on to Mars, and then Pluto, and God knows where to from there... terrific clip, 5 Big Stars!!

[@Dayniac4324]

I'm so happy this brought you some happy memories. I was only 4 in 1957 - wish I'd been born a little earlier. I got in on the tumultuous 60's and early 70's for my teen years. I guess there's always good and bad things for any age. But I think the 50's would have been fun teen times. It was fun being a kid then. Certainly different from today. Thank you - really happy you enjoyed !

[@bethelle9099]

Ah, Doris! Perfect vibrato!!!! Perfect entertainer! My favorite national treasure, also! NONE can compare!!!!

[@parohelo]

It has to be the best rendition ever! Thank you very much for posting it. There will always be a special place in my heart for Doris, I owe her so many wonderful and happy memories.

[@jackiemcmeekin6551]

A great actress and singer. What a romantic, passionate song about love and spring!

[@comeacross9]

"I am starry eyed and vaguely discontented,like a nightingale without a song to sing...." I not sure there is a lyricist alive today capable of writing as beautiful a phrase. Doris is one of the most underrated singers ever. She had impeccable chops but I believe she is always viewed through the lens of her Rock Hudson comedy fluff roles. Thanks for posting this.

[@patapon828]

comeacross9 it was actually Oscar Hammerstein who wrote the song, but I agree! Also though it was two years ago that you said this 😂😂🤣👍

[@thomasdonio2129]

She's on my list of top five singers, the others being Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, and Judy Garland.

[@Ashkan41]

Really well said, she was truly gift. And fortunately we are now in an era where we have acces to all these masterpieces at our fingertips.

[@a.madison9625]

Stephen Sondheim is the only one who could come close, and he was trained by Oscar Hammerstein.

[@markherron1407]

Today is the first day of Spring March 20,2021 Happy 😊😁 Spring Day! Blessings and Hugs 💖🤗🙏🤗🙏🤗🙏🤗🙏!

[@pattykuvshin]

I only knew about this song because of the Stacey Kent version (which I love). Now I like to search for different versions, and this one is awesome, Doris Day's voice is an incredible smooth jazz instrument.

[@a.madison9625]

Doris used to be known as the white Ella Fitzgerald. Listen to early recordings of Ella, and you can see how Doris' sound is very similar.

[@williamlrobinson6293]

Outstanding song sung by the one and only Doris Day.

[@Genetivetexan]

She's my favorite, all time, all-around entertainer!

[@Dayniac4324]

@weightfeather1 Yes... I think her intimate style and her talent for interpreting a song make her one of the best ever ! She really did sing a ballad better than anyone. She's amazing. I'm really happy you enjoyed ! Thank you !

[@richardlee8495]

Doris, you are REALLY good on this. like few others who do not feel it the way you do. congratulations, on a superlative song you MUST not muck up, and some do, despite their best efforts.

[@yendor61]

600 songs, wow, I had no Idea. Nice collection of covers and such as well. What a happy looking women she is. Your loyalty to Doris is unmatched by any I have seen here Toni and that is very cool.. Another great effort by you Toni. Thanks for the share. Peace & Happiness to you~~~Rod

[@gugulia]

wonderful song and post dear toni, thank you and david who shared it *****

[@lindaeasley5606]

It didn't matter the song .Doris made it sound heavenly

[@omitnot]

the day she recorded it , i was a year old! thanks once again, for this fab collection.

[@dlpine71]

Toni, Another very nice video from the 'queen of swing' -- Doris Day!! I like how you used her album covers to match this really nice song!! That's alot of work adding her albums and dates released. Nice tidbit of her "Love Album" recorded in 1967, but not released until 2006 in the U.S. after her son, Terry Melcher, found it in her garage!! Wow!! You make a great video, Toni Sue ... you really do!! Many stars, and shared!! David

[@weeyin1155]

Hello dear Toni. What a treat to get this lovely video upload from you. Just loved this! Hope you're doing well and that you have a special Sunday! Bright stars and warm hugs.... Jan and Susan ♥

[@princepeterwolf]

By far the best version!!!!!

[@bulldogbarks55]

When I was in the high school band in the early '60s we always played the "Highlights from (name the musical.)" as part of our spring concert. I guess that's where I got my love for show tunes and especially Rodgers and Hammerstein. Every time I hear a song like this, or one from "Oklahoma" or "South Pacific" it brings back wonderful memories of those concerts. Doris is such a great talent. I can see her now playing the daughter in "State Fair." She would have been perfect for the part.

[@robertobordino7141]

Wonderful.... Thank you

[@Dayniac4324]

And I was 4 !! And it still sounds good ! thank you -- happy you enjoyed !!

[@josephvirgilio4984]

who doesn't love Doris Day?

[@Dayniac4324]

Thank you Jan and Susan - happy to hear you're doing better - take care ...Toni

[@yendor61]

Thanks for sharing David. This was very well put together. Hope you are well my friend. Peace & Happiness to you~~~Rod

[@Dayniac4324]

Well, you said it Manfread !! I think she'll be around for a very long time. It amazes me to see the number of cd's on amazon - with new ones all the time. I think she still receives as much fan as she did when she was making movies ! Rather amazing !! Thank you - hope you have a wonderful week !!

[@Dayniac4324]

Thank you brianna - I'm so happy you enjoyed the song - another lovely Doris song !!

[@marcialeer]

Lots of history there! That is a great tribute video of some of her work! Thanks for sharing!

[@Dayniac4324]

I got my love of Doris from records my Mom had ... so I always tell her my dayniac syndrome is all her fault ! haha ! Yes - I think Doris is a gentle soul -- and a lovely lady - inside and out. I'm 57 this year so just a little older than you. It is fun to see the kids get dressed up and do the prom thing ! Hope she has a wonderful time !!

[@gillianarant7940]

Love Doris Day

[@Dayniac4324]

Thanks Megan -- hope you're having a wonderful summer !!

[@unadka]

Hi, Toni! It's happened to me too, that why I wrote the second comment. The day after that both comments appered. Funny, but yours never. Thanks for your videos. I enjoy DD's music day and night, one day I'll might have all.

[@dorisdayno1]

hi toni great video and nice sweet song. I have not been on youtube for nearly 4 weeks because my internet broke and my library doesn't let you to go on youtube so i wasn't happy that it me now just got it back i have missed it so much and was getting withdrawl symptons. speak soon !

[@RachelBinghamRinehimer]

Toni, I don't know how I missed this one--I was sure I'd viewed all of your Doris videos!! LOL As usual, it's just beautiful, Toni--and this is one of my favorite songs that Doris did! :) Thanks for sharing this--hope you're having a lovely "Day"! :)

[@Dayniac4324]

Thank you lvemedo - so happy you enjoyed it !!

[@Darrell1019]

Thanks Toni!

[@weeyin1155]

Thank you David - just found your share after watching our subscription video! lol Big hugs.. Jan and Susan ♥

[@lonelinessinmilan6486]

A song that describes a simple emotion, but it's a song that brings one back ... at least to a time, when the world jumped up and down on it's axis.

[@Dayniac4324]

Well - I think you have good taste !! I was a little kid in the 50's - so I probably got my love of this music from listening to my Mom's records. She had 2 Doris Day albums that I listened to all the time !! So it's all her fault ! lol It's a snowy very cold day here - very unspring like. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas...thanks !!

[@Dayniac4324]

Thank you johnb1948six - you are so right about Doris - glad you enjoyed the video !!

[@Dayniac4324]

Thank you Gaby - happy you enjoyed - hope your having a nice weekend !!!

[@Dayniac4324]

I feel the same way about Doris - I guess you could tell that !! lol I hope she knows how many people feel that way about her. Thanks -- happy you enjoyed this !

[@Dayniac4324]

Thank you Marcy - there are a lot of Doris records out there !! Hope you all are having a nice summer !! Take care !

[@Dayniac4324]

Thanks David -- isn't that amazing that those recordings could be "lost" for that many years ? Thank you for sharing with your friends.

[@pili2255]

Truly fantastic, I loved it! Gaby.

[@Dayniac4324]

I'm happy your back ! I know what you mean - our son usually crashes our computer every summer when he's home from college. So far this summer he hasn't - but it's not over yet !! lol I have a hard time without internet access - I definitely have withdrawals ! Hope you have a lovely week !!

[@jackiemcmeekin6551]

Doris Day was a great actress and singer. What a romantic, passionate song. She did not find happiness in her marriages, unfortunately.

[@Dayniac4324]

Thank you Indy - appreciate it !!

[@Dayniac4324]

I love her version .. so happy you did too !!

[@Dayniac4324]

@bulldogbarks55 I grew up listening to show tunes. We have an outdoor theater in Kansas City - Starlight Theatre. When I was young stars toured in wonderful musicals and I got to see the likes of Ginger Rogers in person... fun ! So - I'm a big show tune lover too. If Doris hadn't hated performing in person she would have been wonderful on stage in a musical ! wow !Happy you enjoyed .. thank you !

[@Dayniac4324]

Thank you EmC !!

[@unadka]

Very interesting video with so many information, I love it. She recorded much more music. By the information of a collector - about 1000 songs, by Pierre Patrick, who wrote a book of DD - about 1100 songs. My file with DD music is pretty large, but I still miss many songs.

[@princepeterwolf]

love her with all my heart, she is a light to this world

[@Dayniac4324]

@dday431924 I'm really happy you found this one since its one of your favorites. She sang soooo many .. I have toooo many favorites !! lol Hope you have a lovely DAY too !!! Take care... Toni

[@Dayniac4324]

She really is an inspiring lady !! Love her too !

[@Dayniac4324]

@annefrancissings Yes... Doris does give us a wonderful interpretation. so happy you enjoyed !

[@Dayniac4324]

Thanks Kay - happy you enjoyed. I use a programcalled muvee6. This is one of the many movies styles included. It's pretty neat - does most of it for you. Thanks again !!

[@LisaGaladriell]

thanks for posting :)

[@Dayniac4324]

Thank you Darrell - happy you enjoyed !

[@princepeterwolf]

Thank you! I most def will!

[@rqdq8576]

Yes, it might as well be spring in Buffalo NY today,

[@Dayniac4324]

Well - I'm with you on that one. But our son says he's the king of pop. I know he has a lot of hits. But - for me the kind of person they are has a lot to do with me liking them. And lets face it - he had major issues. That's one of the things I appreciate about Doris - she's a wonderful lady in addition to her talent. I admire her for her dedication to animal welfare - she's done so much for them. Thanks !!

[@Darrell1019]

I can't understand the jackson adulation-in light of his past. I'm so glad to have Miss Clara as an icon of entertainment!

[@MichaelDewey]

Great got to learn that picture add stuff. But I wanted live D.D.

[@Dayniac4324]

Thank you no2hate - happy you enjoyed !!

[@Dayniac4324]

Thank you gugulia -- appreciate you stopping by - happy you enjoyed !

[@qualquan]

Beautiful pacing. Could be the best.

[@bronxboy47]

Has any American singer ever had a more perfect standard American diction?

[@jourwalis-8875]

Nope!

[@Dayniac4324]

Thank you Rod - Doris has a huge music catalog ( I guess we're not sure about the number of songs) and you can tell I love her music - I'm having fun getting some of it out there. Thank you for watching - I know its not quite your cup of tea !! lol I hope you and your lovely family have a great week - take care - Toni

[@Dayniac4324]

OK Nada - I heard from Peter -- he says he's come up with 922 songs she's recorded - and he's spent a lot of time on this. Wow - I'm even more amazed than I was !!

[@Dayniac4324]

Janne -- I have it on one of the Bear Family sets. I can send it to you if you like. Have to agree with you - she has one of the best voices ever. Thanks !!

[@MerleOberon]

What's not to love?

[@Dayniac4324]

I'd be happy to send it to you !!

[@Dayniac4324]

I've answered your comment twice and it never shows up ! I've asked Peter about the number of songs. I got my information from Stephen's website - doris day tribute. And Tom Santopietro's book. I don't know what the correct number is. Hopefully Peter will know - he's the master when it comes to her music ! Thanks - hope this comment shows ! I don't know why it won't post.

[@Dayniac4324]

@LisaGaladriell Happy you enjoyed !

[@Dayniac4324]

Yes ma'am ...she sure can !!

[@Janneinwonderland]

What a wonderful voice she has.... *sigh* I have a little question, because I just can't seem to find this particular song! Do you know where I can find it? Thank you :) Janne

[@lucianoantoniomoraeszanell2374]

Authors: Richard Rodgers & Oscat Hammerstein II (Rio, 31/march/2020).

[@renascencewoman]

doris can just sing period.

[@Dayniac4324]

@annefrancissings I will definitely check it out...thank you !!

[@Dayniac4324]

@nancyfloressantos That it is !!

[@Genetivetexan]

If you get the chance, listen to Eddie Fisher sing if from his album of Academy Award winners; also a great version...

[@qualquan]

Second to none

[@JohnsonKelseyAnne]

Doris was such an incredible talent. I'd love some feedback on the version of this song I recorded, check it out on my channel!
