Mandy Patinkin sings "Bali Ha'i" from "South Pacific"

[@Alfie198]

He isn't just singing it. He is living it! Love him.

[@dotmacis]

This was released the same year my two best friends and I met him. It was in Toronto and we didn't have the money to see his show, so we figured we'd just meet him at the stage door. It was rather cold so everyone at the stage door was ushered into the theatre. When our turn came, he asked us what we thought of his show. I told him that we didn't have the money, and just wanted to meet him. "No money?! Well, then ... you'll just have to see tomorrow's show on me!!" ... con't ...

[@dotmacis]

Part 3. He wanted to sing a song to her, and sat down on the stage floor beside her. He shared with the audience about how he'd met us the previous night (meanwhile my other friend Lisa and I are basket cases on the floor. LOL!!), then sang "Children Will Listen." He finished by giving her a huge kiss on the lips!!!! What an incredible man he is!!!! :o)

[@princezzpuffypants6287]

I had to scroll through a lot of comments to get the full story, but it was totally worth it. Thank you for sharing that wonderful story!

[@Lorrieonline]

What a fabulous memory you've shared! Thank you.

[@kassandragauthier5199]

Passion,that is what this man transmits when he sings,or when he recits...I love him,.I loved him,and I will love him forever.

[@dotmacis]

Part 2. I couldn't believe this. Michelle was disabled and not able to walk very well, so our seats were in the orchestra, just a few rows from the front. His concert was spellbinding. When he came out for his bows at the end, I suggested to Michelle that she go closer to the stage to see him when he emerged, as she was rather short. He ran out, got down on his hands and knees,gave her a huge hug, then he asked me to help him lift her onto the stage ... con't ...

[@richardsilkes5944]

[@michelledengramthomas3193]

He was trained at my High School, Kenwood, in Chicago, by our choir teacher-Mrs. Lena Mclin. She is the niece of the Father of Gospel, Thomas Dorsey. She also trained R Kelly, Chaka Khan, Mark Rucker (opera), and many others

[@curious1curious]

louise grice Mandy is phenomenal in everything he does. What a talent. I still laugh out loud when I think of him as Inigo Montoya in The Princess Bride. Great performer all around!

[@56ava43]

He was hilarious in The Princess Bride...."Prepare to die!"

[@debrarains2088]

Oh my gosh, yes!!!! He is fantastic. Loved him then, love him now.

[@EmeraldSky33]

2:17 That deliberate belty vocal crack. PERFECT. Then the quiet at 2:34. Such talent!

[@janisadams3802]

Marvelous performance! 👏👌♥️

[@barbarapatocka4232]

One of my all time favorite performers of all time. Wonderful voice and passion in all he does.

[@kangadillo]

His range is astonishing.

[@princezzpuffypants6287]

What in the ever loving hell.... why have I never heard this! I fricking adore Mandy Patinkin. This is amazing.

[@rosemarie20]

Until today, 4.06.24, I never knew Patinkin sang!

[@Jellybaby50]

One of the greatest examples of the now rare 'all round' actor. Incredible.

[@karlhungus5554]

Amazing performance!

[@savtamarlene]

First time I ever heard of Mandy Patinkin was when I saw him in the original cast of Broadway show "Evita" as Che Guavera in 1982 or 1983. Amazing voice and performance!!!

[@MrsMaddieM]

Mr. Patinkin is absolutely brilliant! What a voice !!

[@wendyreiner9135]

This is a haunting . It is filled with paths and tenderness. No one sings Bali has like he does.

[@colleenbraun5792]

Just love this man. A genuine human being.

[@unicorns2201]

wow i never knew he could sing , let alone as brilliantly as this , i have seen him in criminal minds and homeland but wow came on this by chance and its just breathtaking , what an absolutely beuatiful rendition of an alreadu lovely song ,

[@JohnWilliams-ru7pk]

Mandy Patinkin, they don't make them like that anymore, Superb. 👍

[@one1tube1]

Beautiful ❤️

[@mysticmouse7261]

I usually dislike musicals. But Mandy delivers the emotion and drama intended with his beautiful tenor voice.

[@bcarl37d]

One of the greatest voices I have ever heard; saw him in person in Los Angeles - wonderful.

[@VallaMusic]

what a voice - very rare for a male singer to be able to sing so high with such sweetness and beauty - used to be more the norm going back 100 years

[@afwhitney]

His voice....his passion...his connection with every song he sings.. wow!

[@stellajennings2265]

Omg this is fantastic Mandy your brilliant i love your voice.👏👏👏👏👏

[@SoulShines4Music]

Wow. I imagine this is what heaven sounds like. 💜💜

[@jeangnometoo]

I was fortunate enough to get to see Mandy live at the Kennedy Center around the same time this video was made. I'll never forget that night. His voice still runs chills up my spine. He is so unique. A fabulous singer and actor too!

[@LaraCroftEyes1]

wow!!! never knew Mandy Patinkin could sing and he did fantastic job.

[@lizmillinor8681]

Love Mandy 💕! I saw him in concert many years ago. His falsetto is mesmerizing! What I especially love about his singing is how he delivers it. It’s moving. He’s a wonderful actor, so that helps.

[@lindajeanwinn]

This man absolutely give me goose pumps whatever he sings! He made Chicago Hope and the show was nothing after he left - saw him once in person and he was magnificent! Could easily become a groupy - so underated - I adore him.

[@youyong28]

I saw this on t.v. and was blown away. I'm blown away all over again.

[@josefaoleynik7682]

It’s absolutely breathtaking, the passion and outstanding performance brings me back to watch this scene so many years... what a great gift and joy - thank you!💋😇

[@SukieTawdry1000]

This is from "Something Wonderful," a tribute to Oscar Hammerstein on his 100th birthday. All the performances were as special as this one. A great show.

[@barkerlandar]

"If you try, you will find me, where the sky meets the sea. Here I am; your special island. Come to me. Come to me."

[@MarkDaGardna]

This song means much to me...This is the most passionate I have ever heard this song except the original movie with Juanita Hall...

[@MarkDaGardna]

So Emotional is his performance! I watch this again and again and never tire of it...If he did nothing but sang throughout his career, I would hold him no less a "STAR!"

[@bcarl37d]

Love his voice and his acting. Which I could have seen him in person more offer but have several CDs. Salt Lake area.

[@olly-kai]

Still one of the most amazing falsettos in the biz!

[@wendyreiner5428]

His voice is sublime . He is a singing actor. He understands the meaning of a lyric.he really is a dramatic singing actor.

[@onemanmusic6572]

Mandy is a wonderful performer and person.

[@danielocarey9392]

Versatile! A wonder. Great control. Wide range of pitch and depth. The lights can be hot. The longer the evening the more difficult the experience. Good work, Mandy. Patience in phrasing. Wow.

[@deborahhall6861]

Such an amazing vocal range - love Mandy Patinkin's singing ❤️

[@SukieTawdry1000]

This is from Great Performance's "Some Enchanted Evening: Celebrating Oscar Hammerstein II" which aired in 1995. All the performances were as good as this one. It was a terrific show. I wish PBS would make these great performances available on DVD.

[@johnnyohness]

What a beautiful tenor voice....simply the best.

[@stellajennings2265]

What a fantastic singer.👏👏👏

[@richardlee8495]

no one has ever sung this song this hauntingly well. what more is there to say?

[@ellenmraz4635]

Voice of an angel!

[@greeneyedmimibostian3013]

Splendid ❤

[@kassandragauthier5199]

Happy birthday,master!You are always the best!

[@Lurker1979]

He has taken care of his voice. Even now he still sounds great. Compared to a lot of similarly aged singers.

[@LilySaintSin]

He has brilliant technique.

[@joseanesilvestre7130]

Mandy é maravilhoso, atuando e cantando é tudo de melhor!!! Amo!!

[@nancyalford8056]

What a voice! I am a big fan❤️

[@LivingforJesusMotherof2]

Wonderful performance !

[@kathyfox8288]

I just love him.

[@gigia9515]

What a voice! Beautiful! I had no idea that he sang. Bravo!

[@CamelSmokes23]

He did such an amazing job in Dead Like Me. If you guys haven't seen it give it a try! He became my favorite actor once I saw the show.

[@relaxation2166]

Beautiful.

[@ScaryDairy15]

Yes thank you for uploading this Mandy is just a special and awesome vocal talent.

[@alix1962]

God, I'm crying again at hearing him sing. I haven't heard him since he did Evita, and I cried then, too.

[@lpbrog]

This is inspirational! I love the role of Bloody Marry and being a young (attractive, depends on your opinion) male, I will never play her. It was just a joy to hear a male sing her song though. I know it is in concert and I will still never play the role, but there is still hope. Also his voice is amazing and love the giant range from falsetto to chest and mixing, with smooth transitions in between, just beautiful. Something else I strive for is a voice like that!

[@amystafford724]

Inconceivable!!!!

[@MrBitchen]

Try to catch a few episodes of a short-lived show called "Dead Like Me"... Mandy was magic in that show, too.

[@captainjazzsparrow]

You are my kind of people 👍🏼

[@villageguy13]

Very cool. Amazing arrangement. Wonderful performance.

[@WeFrost62]

Wonderful!

[@137cake]

What a voice! Absolutely fantastic! Thank you for uploading this. It's amassing - what a treat!

[@outercyberia]

Quite the range❣️Wow❣️

[@koloagirl]

Mandy is quite simply the best!

[@dotmacis]

Mandy has a voice of pure and unadulterated silk!!

[@LaraCroftEyes1]

I been fan Mandy Patinkin since the princess Bride

[@rfmitchell7]

@Applescruffghostbust :D yeah - the goose bumps showed up just then - saw this when it aired, but haven't seen it since!

No lo sabía aparte de ser un buen actor es maravilloso cantando

[@MrBitchen]

I taped this in 1995 (pretty sure) from PBS's "Some Enchanted Evening" tribute to Oscar Hammerstein. Mandy was one of the guest performers.

[@jackybennett5231]

MrBitchen me too! Wore that vhs out rewatching that entire special. So amazing.

[@paulajones3856]

Huxley sings so beautifully

[@johnnytastetest]

Sweet Bali Ha'i.

[@SukieTawdry1000]

@MrBitchen Yeah, there were revivals of "Showboat" and "Carousel" that year and cast members from both shows performed that night. They did the ballet sequence from "Carousel" ("If I Loved You"). You either like ballet or you don't.

[@MrBitchen]

@SukieTawdry1000 Thank you for that information! I have a few of the other performances from that show. I wish I had taped the entire thing. I do remember there was one ballet performance that I wasn't too crazy about, but I liked everything else a lot.

[@MrBitchen]

@afwhitney He puts his all into everything he does... we love us some Mandy!

[@MrBitchen]

@SukieTawdry1000 The piece from "Carousel" ("If I Loved You") that I remember was two vocalists: both with brown hair. The guy wore suspenders and the girl ("Julie Jordan") wore a dress. They weren't dancing, only singing. I still have that clip, I just don't know who they are. It's a great number.

[@Newkicks85]

Wow wow wow

Can't believe those who voted this down @_@

[@MrBitchen]

Hey DarkBaby - I didn't know you were also a fan of Mandy's. He's very talented.

[@Lunatic4ever]

its weird,seeing him in Homeland an then here on stage with no beard and singing :D

[@MrBitchen]

@SukieTawdry1000 I uploaded the clip from "Carousel"... I wish I knew their names.

[@Marcel_Audubon]

Michael Hayden and Sally Murphy ... they were recreating the Billy Bigelow and Julie Jordan roles they had played in the remarkable Lincoln Center revival of Carousel which had closed earlier that same year (1995).

[@williamboiczuk1233]

Very cool. Who arranged this?! It's amazing!. Wonderful performance.

[@watchmen2112]

actually he does.... the bottom of his collar is where it's located
