Truly, this man must be in that small group of "best singers ever". Brilliant singer with a superb vocal technique.

[@georgfriedrichhandel4390]

IMO, this was the best movie for both of them. It revealed McQueen's sensitive side and Natalie looked so beautiful. It makes you wish they were a real-life couple.

[@jameshub2]

The golden age of the romantic crooner is gone.I miss it so much.

[@riacona]

Our world today represents the LACK of this sentiment, honesty, and beauty !

[@jamesodonnell6399]

Probably Jack at his best he made it his song thank you Jack Jones

[@MJLeger-zc6gb]

Beautiful song with a tribute to the late, very lovely Natalie Wood. She was enigmatically beautiful, with a tender soul, gone from us too soon.

[@robertchamberlain7202]

Jack knocks it out of the park with this rendition

[@jamesbrown997]

there are not enough bells and banjos in this sad old world of today

[@Nutriloc1]

Where are the Jack Jones of today !!! I think we all miss these beautiful voices and the true romance of the 50's and 60's.

[@MJLeger-yj1ww]

Oh, you are SO right! I guess for me, it was the mid-60's on, that I learned what life was all about, some bad and some good of course. But the music of that era was so superb compared to the "music?" today! A time of beautiful ballads like this one.

[@MJLeger-yj1ww]

There ARE NO singers today of the caliber of Jack Jones, and others of that fabulous '60's era, we miss them all, the artists that are gone now, and there are so many! Today, we just do NOT seem to have the same quality of their magnitude. In acting, singing, probably directing and producing too! What a change in today's artists, just not comparable in any way. Maybe it's because they have no peers today, with true talent to relate to and self-improve to meet the standards and compete with, kind of sad.

[@MJLeger-yj1ww]

Well, Clay, they all age and die, but sadly, they are not replaced with artists as great as they were. Today's singers show us nothing, compared to back then. But then, Jack Jones (one of my favorite singers) doesn't sound like the above anymore either, his voice is not as good now as it once was, and artists should quit while they're ahead if that happens! We all age and are not as good as we once were in many things -- so do it gracefully and hang it up in time so that the best is preserved in memory! Such as this beautiful song, by Jack, back when he was at his best.(Natalie and Steve never got the chance to grow old, what a shame.)

[@marypearce6823]

I still very much enjoy Jack Jones!!! When he was 83 , he cut an album “ Every other day I have the blues “!!! I own it and listen to it!!! I love him very much!!! He will be 85 in February and I don’t like anyone saying he needs to stop singing!!!

[@corazoncruz3153]

Awesome movie to both RIP 🙏

[@jansoars1981]

Jack Jones - what a voice. Really beautiful song. Whoever did the video for this did an amazing job. I always loved Natalie Wood and Steve McQueen. I never pictured him in a movie like this because he was always such a 'cool' guy. His soft side really came out in this movie. Guess I always had a little crush on him. But Natalie...when I found out she died in the 80s, it really upset me for many many days. I'd kept hoping she would make a comeback after being away for so long...

[@VanLat7]

For myself this is the most beautiful Romantic movie ever seen, the chemistry between McQueen and Wood was phenomenal

[@mjleger4555]

This has been a favorite song of mine for many years. Sadly, both Steve and Natalie are gone now, but we can bring them back here with this song!

[@JuneLynn]

Jack Jones is still happily alive

[@bixsingsthemusicoflife2047]

Some of us are trying to bring back this kind of singing, and the true romance that was enjoyed by past generations. It's hard to get listeners, and hard to move forward and find the lovers of this kind of wonderful music. Help those you find.

[@marypearce6823]

I am definitely one!!! I don’t listen to anything but this beautiful music , mostly Jack Jones!!! I have loved him since I was 14 years old and I first saw him on Ed Sullivan!!! I am 80 years old now and I still love 💕 him so much!!’ Most of my music is Jack and I have a lot on my phone!!! Listen to it every day ❤!!!

[@antoinecarter2149]

They took so so many pictures together for this movie. So glad they did . They make a beautiful looking couple. I enjoy looking at all of them . Loved the movie . One of my favorites of Natalie and Steve.

[@voicegirl555]

I love the movie! I think it is so underrated and so are the performances of Natalie Wood and Steve McQueen. It is my favorite film of both of them. I love the way Jack Jones, one of the most underrated singers of the 60s and 70s. Natalie died 40 years ago today. God Bless Her! Thanks Natalie for doing this film. Thanks for all the films you left behind.

[@georgfriedrichhandel4390]

It's my favorite performance of both Steve and Natalie also. He was just looking for a one night stand and she was looking for a little romance and in the end, they both found love. It makes you believe in true love again. It may not have been a big box office hit when it was first released but it has since become a cult classic. IMO, they were the perfect screen couple.

[@JK-kv1xl]

5 Oscar nominations including best actress Natalie Wood

[@catholiccowboy8545]

This song by Jack Jones kills me ...It takes me back to 1964. Did you know that this song was playing on the radio of the Beatles' NY Hotel room when they where on their way to their first Ed Sullivan show in Feb. of 1964. Check out the "Beatles First US Tour" documentary. The last song they heard before being on stage at the Ed Sullivan Theatre in 64. That's History !

[@hell0hkitty]

i played this over and over in the sixties...

[@vinny8562]

Lovely song from a great romantic classic movie. They don't make clean romantic movies like this anymore.

[@jamesodonnell6399]

First song Jack sung that made me an everlasting fan ,boy he could sing ❤

[@JK-kv1xl]

Nominated for best actress here

[@frankmisaege3520]

Terrific movie...two of the all-time greats in Natalie Wood & Steve McQueen. Equally good is JJ's rendition of the title song...this man had a pure golden voice in those days.

[@jeanettamack8947]

Love this movie they have so much chemistry in this movie. Love natalie and steve together !❤❤❤🥰🥰🥰

[@williammattos9158]

Loved the movie but it's been ages since I saw it.

[@susanb2015]

I just saw it on KZbin in 11 or 12 parts.

[@jesuscastanares4968]

IT'S THE RHYTHM AND THE PACE OF HIS STYLE OF SINGING, THAT MAKES JACK JONES, QUITE A NATURALLY GREAT SINGER.

[@kittyglitter5376]

Natalie and Steve together! Oh, be still my beating heart! 🌟 🌟 ♥️ ♥️

[@norenenavarro5553]

Beautiful ballad. Just watched the movie on TCM the other night; so nice to see a good love story with wonderful actors - both greatly missed.

[@TheSilvergold45]

[@francesvansiclen1444]

"Love With The Proper Stranger" was one of my favorite movies ! Natalie Wood was a beautiful woman ! This song is so nostalgic to me !!!!!

[@jeanmasonmcmahon2515]

My favorite male singer!

[@tonygutierrez5578]

Elmer Bernstein and Johnny Mercer with Jack Jones three great talents.

[@jesuscastanares4968]

JACK JONES, WONDERFULLY, SINGS : 1) LIVE WITH A PROPER STRANGER. 2) LORELIE 3) THE SHADOW OF YOUR SMILE 4) MORE 5) EMBRACEABLE YOU 6) THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM 7) WHAT ARE YOU DOING THE REST OF YOUR LIFE 8) WHAT NOW, MY LOVE 9)IF

[@jamesodonnell4866]

Jack your probably the best crooner I've ever heard Sinatra ! Damon, are up there but your the man

[@JuneLynn]

so sorry how could I forget Jack Jones.....his voice is perfect and the picture of Natalie at 2:05 is stunning.....

[@michaelbracewell1401]

JACK JONES , FABULOUS !!! NATALIE WOOD, BEAUTIFUL!!!, STEVE Mc 'QEEN BRILLIANT!!, -- SADLY TWO LEFT YOUNG !!

[@critchley3819]

How lovely is this? beutiful music and so was the movie takes me back to when life was so much easier to live when we had time to smell the roses and going fast was 50 mph.

[@JChandl1]

Natalie and Steve thank you forever for making this beautiful, touching movie. Love to you both,...... my favorites. Always bells and banjoes.

[@alwaysblake148]

Beautiful song, beautiful movie, beautiful woman.

[@jansoars1981]

So beautiful, but truly a world away now, in 2012! Hard to believe how much the world (our world) has changed... The innocence is gone with the wind.

[@MJLeger-tz4so]

So true, Janet, and 7+ more years have passed since you wrote your comment. Where does time go so fast? And yes, the world has changed so much, and not all for the better either! I love how scientific technology has advanced, but one can't say the same for the mentality of many people!

[@richarddegrandcourt3430]

dear janet its not gone just find someone to live it with

[@Wolfsky9]

Ohhh Natalie, I miss you, & Mr Jones, your voice was gorgeous, & we miss you too. Wolfsky9

[@librarybob1958]

Another Oscar-nominated song introduced by Jack Jones. The film was, indeed, one of Natalie and Steve's best, adapted from Tennessee Williams' only comedy.

[@Ulitawo]

Beautiful indeed... both the Movie and the Song. They don't make them as then... anymore. Sigh... I have the Movie in a factory produced VHS, an original LP and CD.

[@sharongallup6556]

How I love Jack Jones' singing - and his interpretation of a song! This is beautiful!

Thanks for your kind comment... yes, i did the video/slideshow of photos from the internet (belonging to their rightful owners).

[@thomasnorman9723]

more beautiful people gone forever......this cannot be real reality......their must be a better reality that never ends

[@MJLeger-yj1ww]

Agreed! It is so difficult to see great artists disappear, into the heavens I suppose, but we miss them and they have NOT been replaced! I guess you can't duplicate talent like those of yesteryear. I could name so many who are gone now -- and we miss them!

[@violetamontesclaros655]

I love Jack Jones singing since in my elementary grades until now.Thank you Sir Tony for posting his song.

[@jansoars1981]

I LOVE this song, Jack's voice, and Natalie Wood was my favorite acrtress when I was younger! Oh, this voice - too beautiful!

[@dianehaumann]

Great movie, great song, great singer.

[@MJLeger-yj1ww]

(Beautiful lady, talented man, Natalie and Steve, both gone now, hard to comprehend and accept; we miss them.) I love this song, the movie was sensational, and anything Jack Jones sings is so artistic and beautiful. And the videos are superb (thank you 65Seasons!).

[@dwa22204]

This song is too pretty to be so short... it needed another verse!

[@richarddegrandcourt3430]

just write a good arrangemnet some repeats its plenty I was rudy valles agent richard degrandcourt

[@rockhammer85]

Many thanks for this. My favorite version of the song is the instrumental one at the beginning of the movie. This is great, too, though. It's ridiculous that such a gem of a romance still isn't available on DVD.

[@TheSilvergold45]

WONDERFUL SONG BY JACK.. JACK IS MARVELOUS. HE IS ONE OF THE BEST EVER.. AND A CLASSY GUY..ON TOP OF IT.. MEGA TALENT JACK IS.. GLAD HE IS STILL AROUND..

[@marypearce6823]

Me too!!! He will be 85 in February!!! Still looks wonderful and still sings!!! I have his album he cut when he was 83, “ Every other day I have the blues “, and I listen to it all the time!!’ He may not have that fantastic voice he had when he was young, but he is still great!!!❤

[@critchley3819]

Yes, I do agree with you, what I meant about 50 was my first motorcycle, a BSA bantam.it could do 50 down hill.steve Mc Queen is a legand to me.I was born in 51, I have owned and ridden these pommy bikes all through my youth, I could pull them down and rebuild them and get them cracking.Steve was at one time 11th best amature rider in the US,his mate Bud Edkins did the fence jump, Steve also was sterring the sidecar bike that was in pursuit,

[@jansoars1981]

Dear 65Seasons, What a beautiful job you did on this video/slideshow! I tried to 'reply' but could not, so I am posting this in hopes you'll see it. Your channel looks wonderful. Thank you again!!!

Did you catch "Mr. C" (Tom Bosley) from "Happy Days" in the movie? R.I.P. Mr. C. 5/2018

[@Lightningslick]

My main man McQueen.

[@DonDraperism]

Natalie Wood is the epitome of class. Something that sorely lacks with many women today. Ladies if you want to meet the right guy, then take a que from Natalie Wood, Eva Gardner, Ingrid Bergman. Funny for all the talk by feminists today how women are no longer "weak" or not "victims" as they were in the past, Natalie Wood, Eva Gardner or women like Joan Crawford don't strike me as being weak. Quite the opposite, they had strength that most women today lack.

[@frannyzooey11]

You forgot Audrey Hepburn.

[@Determinedbookworm]

DonDraperism Well, men would rather date a trashy woman than a classy women. If you reward bad behavior then it will continue. That goes for both genders. There are still women who have class but they get overlooked by guys who think sex and hotness are the only things that matter. So blame your own gender. Men aren't so innocent.

[@Determinedbookworm]

DonDraperism By the way, I keep seeing the same type of comments on these types of videos. Sexist dudes complaining that women don't look like Marilyn Monroe or Audrey Hepburn anymore. But I doubt these critics look like Cary Grant, Paul Newman or Gregory Peck. Guys want women to be the only ones held to beauty standards and 'moral behavior' standards. And a lot of feminists admire Ingrid Bergman, Katharine Hepburn, Bette Davis, Rosalind Russell, Barbra Stanwyck, Mae West and other actresses of the past so I don't know what the hell you're talking about.
