It's amazing watching this after only hearing it as a kid some 70 years ago

[@Slarti]

What a fantastic singer, she comes across as really likeable in the manner she reveals her personality through her singing.

[@elizabethcanttell7934]

Wow. Total class and elegance back then. I have to laugh at the "singers" of today when I hear ladies like Rosemary and Dinah Washington. And the resemblance to George is uncanny as well.

Schön sie auch zu sehen. Ich liebe diesen Song. Sunkiss

[@nodollarsign]

she is so beautiful

[@CrosbySinatraAndDean]

rosemary's awesome! i love how she sings out of the left side of her mouth sometimes during this song

[@Laura-zs7ys]

We can applaud older singers and the styles they used without putting down current artists. You'd be amazed how talented people still are, but the mainstream dampens it. We can still sing like this dude.

[@colcaggar123]

I am sure her nephew the gorgeous George is proud of her ... she later made all kinds of classic films ... great voice

[@daviddoll4730]

Aha, I now realize that this is from a Martin+Lewis Colgate hour! Thanks!!

[@magdadegraaf5442]

My father's favorite. 'half as much' runs about the toxic relation with one who now is known as a borderliner

[@Moondog13]

Her vocal chords pwn all of thos contest crap singers; and thier crappy guests... love these songs by mrs.Cloonry

[@LifeOfJimbo]

In England, these two songs were on the same record, whilst both songs had different sides in The States, I'm not sure why this was

[@anthonyfiorenza679]

Martin & Lewis were on the Colgate Comedy Hour quite a lot.

[@Moondog13]

She sings like an italian lass;but she's irish lol.

[@onelife3916]

Compare her version of Half As Much to Hank Williams' version. A pretty versatile song!

[@hereiam2005]

is the introducing guy wearing a bathrobe???

[@addbioshockasachapterindea345]

Don't think so, due to the oil in his hair, but does look like it. Also his name is Dean Martin.

[@browndog461]

You just want to kiss her, what a lady.

[@SpoonsForks]

@mohojohoe same

[@danielterry382]

She was excellent, her voice changed in Later life with all the smoking, and she gained a Lot of weight.

[@daviddoll4730]
