No one will ever see or hear anything like this ever again ! Ethel Merman was one of the greatest broadway entertainers of all time !!!!!

I just love hearing Ethel Merman sing.

She was just the best!!! OMG, I would have loved to have seen her live! I probably would’ve exploded right there. As a gay man I know almost every tune the woman sang and all the lyrics

Really ...

Saw this on TV at age 5. Was somehow ENTHRALLED by this lady. I still am. So thrilling to see it again nearly 50 years later.

[@95KIPPIE]

She had a stage presence like none other! So strong and powerful, people are enthralled at least I am. Queen of Broadway musicals of all time, the great Ethel Merman!! And, that dress and hair! She looks like the perfect star! We will never have entertainment like that again. So sad, so wonderful to see and remember. When I think of diva, and I use that word loosely, I think of her. She was the diva! In a very good, and deserving way

I remember watching this on TV in 1975, so long ago, and even more poignant now. Thank you Ethel Merman!
