Sammy Davis on Arsenio Hall Pt 3

[@grimlock3134]

Sammy would pass on within a year after this interview. A true gentleman, you can feel his love and energy through the computer screen. RIP Sammy

[@Karl671]

Sad man very sad😢

[@kimono7350]

aaaaawwwwww, Sammy telling Arsenio he'd be there for him.....OMG, how sweet and moving❤️💋❤️! Looked like Arsenio was about to cry, and so was I!

[@GrasshopperRDG]

This Man's Voice Is: PASSION, DEPTH, HEART, CONVICTION, AND REVERENCE. "He Will ALWAYS Have My Standing Ovation!" What A GREAT* Mr. SAMMY DAVIS JR. XOXOXOXOXO!!!!

[@DustySoulLtd]

Wow, just to think he was suffering from throat cancer at the time. Genius! Rest in praise Sammy!

[@thecjb2003]

@rudy2fat He passed in May 1990, so this has to be 89. His battle with cancer from diagnosis to death was for 9 months.

[@Karl671]

😢😢

[@hw5091]

This is probably during initial symptoms, before diagnosis. Always sucks looking back on stuff like this. @@thecjb2003

[@sheilastockdale6715]

A true entertainer. He’s still one of my favorite singers. Rest In Peace, dear Sammy. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@63bplumb]

Jesus! When he got up and walked over with ALL his talent and experience and sang that song with the band did Anyone else???? have tears in their eyes? I'm 65 so really have been around and knew SD Jr was a major talent but this guy was at the top of his game! PS: Can you imagine the band went home floating on air--WE played for SD Jr tonight!

[@beautylee9161]

I seriously believe that Arsenio wanted to cry during this interview.

[@mbrellin]

Well...it was his mentor and personal idol, I believe too that!

[@AngelsTakeMe2Heaven]

Matasha Lee Arsenio did seem touched by Mr. Davis' praise - and rightfully so

[@nomadman2182]

Matasha Lee hey boo

[@Nuevolutionsalsa]

Who wouldn't. Sammy's sincerity was felt. Hell that would make anyone what to cry. Sammy was a class act hands down.

[@vondraehawkins9232]

Matasha Lee they all knew he was sick

[@amandalively1]

Tears of joy..😂😭thanks Sammy ! The band was great too.

[@Channel-cm7yc]

Pure class all the way!!!!!!

[@lastlaff2777]

And today we have Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber.

[@elizabethpease947]

Last Laff : Pitiful, isn’t it?

[@inkyguy]

I'm glad we have a record of Sammy Davis Jr.'s talent or the world would scarce believe a man of such talent and grace ever lived.

[@junkboxxxxxx]

🥇🥇🥇 Sammy Davis Jr 🥇🥇🥇 He's been gone from us for 32 years but obviously will never be forgotten. What a man. He did it all. He handled life's ups and downs with class, style, and humour in such a way that he made you feel grateful to be alive and around that. That is a rare ability found in only the top performers.

[@ccth22]

Stuff like this leaves me at a loss for words. Amazing!

[@colossus112785]

Damn he promised Arsenio that he would be back but died a year later 😢😢😢

[@greenghost3756]

About time y'all got y'all lazy butts up, you should of gave him a standing ovation when he first came out, he's a LEGEND

[@karenperkins106]

Right!!!

[@Channel-cm7yc]

A beautiful human being. His talent and work are unparalleled, through the pain and ridicule people have to suffer through he took the high road and gave us all the love he had and we will never ever see the likes of this again!! You're absolutely right when royalty like Sammy enters the room YOU stand up and show your respect!

[@avrahamyoel7039]

One of the greatest entertainers to ever live! R.I.P., Sammy!

[@the60sKid]

Sammy was a class act and an amazing talent and entertainer up to the end. He was the gold standard.

[@2dasimmons]

So TRUE. RIP marvelous Sammy Davis Jr., ICON.

[@TheSuey]

the60sKid a genuine and all around great guy. I wish he was still around

[@2dasimmons]

Don't we all, But his time will come again. This life is truly a testing ground. Wow. I'm listening to Lou Rawls sing IF I COULDA WOULDA SHOULDA and it's just fabulous. And really describes LIFE.

[@gimmeanidicanuse]

Hands down.

[@petedelrio5990]

the60sKid you took the words right out of my mouth. couldn't agree more. may he rest in peace.

[@niajacobs9605]

So much respect, So much love. Sammy Davis is to be honored and respected for ever.

[@guyfawkes9951]

Even in the face of all those setbacks in life and all that struggle and all that success, Sammy stayed humble, happy and appreciative of what he had. That's a rare talent all in itself.

[@jerrysannan497]

I miss him so he had a beautiful soul for the hard times he went through.

[@DaddyTre65]

Sammy Davis Jr. was an entertainment master! A gifted singer, dancer, actor and musician. And at age 63 he was doing some "A-plus" crooning!

[@MikeyGaming]

Legend. Plain and simple.

[@solitarywanderer]

So talented, so gracious, so polite, so moving - they don't make 'em like this anymore. A true show biz legend RIP.

[@eknockeywyharris7243]

This was beautiful to see. I remember watching it live. Sammy was so spiritual and giving.

[@Truegeeza]

What a humble man this is what you call a truly inspirational person, not many of these people around - celebrities these days are self obssesed image conscious money driven

[@tatt2blue]

Thank you for posting these! What a treasure!!!!! I'm so grateful I had the opportunity to see him perform live twice in my lifetime....He had more talent in that little body than most alleged "entertainers" have in their toes!!!!

[@rickw1100]

As Jessie Jackson said at his funeral service, there will never be another Sammy Davis Jr. cuz there NEVER was one before. Godspeed Sam !

[@Karl671]

True

[@guaguancos.montunodcubop8923]

Arsenio Hall watching from the side as Sammy Davis performs is giveing me my grandparents told me about this man I see what they love about him vibes

[@KaSandraStallworth]

Gosh. . .How Beautiful. . .Sammy Davis was a class act!

[@Millienfilm81]

I really don't know what to say here in 2022, but in 3022 this clip will still be incredible. Hail Mr. Sammy.

[@4687878]

I love Sammy like he was my own Father !!!

[@user-mo6tz6oh9i]

He was a great performer. He was performing on stage since he was very young. I love his impressions of the greats and his thoughtful interpretations of ANY song he ever sang!!

[@CAMPAZFilms]

"You guys sound too good." Baby, Sammy you sound too good man.

[@johnwalton5147]

Arsenio on Howard Stern made me look for this. Man I teared up watching this. A true legend and gentleman.

[@WHTT]

Wow. What a man. What a great, great soul. Thank you for sharing this, Joe Wellington. Thank you Sammy.

[@thegreatbungholio21]

Thank you for posting this interview. Sammy is still king!

[@artbeau]

Ever the consummate professional, the entertainer, the magnificent. I sure do miss the most talented of the Rat Pack, the most brilliant entertainer of a long gone era. Sammy Davis Jr.

[@dbrown9495]

A pleasant surprise, excellent impromptu performance! Classy professional and smooth

[@ginaferracini2244]

Fantastic his voice sense of humour his smile beautiful love him .. Sammy ♥️🙏 2022..

[@Becauseimme]

Uncle Sammy transitioned when I was seven years old, I’ve heard stories about how great he was. Now as a 40 year old man I can see why my parents and grandparents used to rave about him, he was truly magical, just like all my people are. Shalawam.

[@miralow5727]

Born 8 Dec 1925, and being 63 as he said he was, makes the year either late 1988 or 1989. Wow, these days I remember full well. Going down to Memphis, then San Diego, El Paso and the Frisco Bay. As he pointed out society in the 1950s wasn´t ready for mingling of people. Today it´s possible to an extent not to be even dreamed of then.

[@zekelucente9702]

So much to love about Sammy. I grew up in the 60’s and my dad was a musician and I was lucky enough to appreciate the standards and people like Sammy.

[@eEdJones]

Arsenio never gets enough credit for documenting the history of African American classical music and talent. In this Arsenio has few equals and no superiors.

[@fideltorres6380]

That guy, Mr Sammy Davis Jr had some class 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@leroycedillo8088]

What a humble and great man!! True icon!! What i wouldnt give to see him and the whole rat pack live!! Simply amazing.

[@ItiyahIsrael]

@JoeWellington.....Thank you so much for posting this classic episode , (1-3), of Sammy in it's entirety!!!

[@muzikman183]

Just so doggon COOL! Sammy killed it! The band stayed right with him! I LOVE how both party's collaborative experience worked together to pull off this impromptu jam.. kudos all around man!!

[@SirHatchporch]

Awesome interview with a great man. Thanks for sharing.

[@corbett1970]

What a talent he was.....So dearly missed.

[@68ElPadrino]

That was a true artist. He was jonzin' to hit the stage like he was fiending for drugs. No money involved. That's the best kinda artist. He was a legend, man. Stone Cold Legend. God bless him.

[@Buzz_Kill71]

I did, in fact, shed a tear. Shout out to Sammy Davis Jr. 👍

[@EDM9121]

Same here. He died a year before I was born. What bad timing on both mine and his part. Still I can see the vids of him and still appreciate his incredible talent.

[@Luvie1980]

Talent pure talent.

[@patrickvogel3929]

A rare "Magic Moment" in time.

[@lordcron]

I just feel blessed to have lived in the era of Sammy Davis Jr. What a blessing he was to this planet. What joy he brought to millions during his time on earth when it wasn't easy to do so. He pushed through and got it done.

[@txmetalhead82xk]

All Class!

[@bellavia5]

He could still belt it out.

[@deenclassic]

[@debragarner4884]

[@rexxgarvin5313]

The Master in the House!!

[@luisalcala2671]

THE GREAT SAMMY DAVIS.........WAS A JAZZ SINGER.....FIRST AND FOREMOST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@michaelduggan1890]

Sammy was amazing . I wonder if he and the band had even met prior to this song. All amazing musicians . What a treat for the audience .

[@petebest22]

[@michaelduggan1890]

[@josephhardaway3]

Sammy Davis Jr was SHOWBIZ ROYALTY!!

[@jamesmartin9401]

Gives me the chills. How great is that.

[@jessiejames7492]

[@jonathansimmons6452]

I enjoyed seeing this. A real class act no doubt.

[@valeriecraftkitover4944]

Class....Class....Talent....Talent..Show-business....The Top!!!!

[@VisionaryofMirage]

I have to say I'm really not very familiar with Sammy's work, but I keep re-watching this because of his warmth and soulful grace.

[@spirit3936]

so so so beautiful.what a genius with so a humble persona.who would ever imagine he was a cosmic superstar who was truly loved by all he touched.love you the most mr davis.

[@carlosgale6777]

I worked at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles back in the early eighties. I was a Medical Transporter in the Comprehensive Cancer Center. They called me to the station and send me to one of the Doctor's office. When i went to the Doc's Office. There he was. Mr. Sammy Davis Jr. He was in his final months of his life. I sat him carefully (as with any other patient sincerely)...I was a mere 20 something years old guy. As I took him and his wife to their car, I remember well he gave me a $5 Tip telling me...."Here Kid" for a sandwich. He seemed and looked very tired and I remember saying a silent prayer for him. 2 or 3 months later he would die. That day this very humble man showed that sparkle in his eyes tired of feeling pain and physically weak due to cancer. Still he was this noble soul within a broken body. A class act even with cancer upon him.

[@colossus112785]

Wow I would've been in tears

[@tweezee]

Sammy Davis Jr! words can never express how i and the millions of fans of his feel about him. he is a really great lengendary man. really one of a kind.

[@j2times2006]

Dude was the fucking truth. God bless Sammy

[@jjacks87]

The House Band after the song: dude we just played with Sammy Davis jr. Wtf!

[@MontUHURU_Mimia777]

Lovely. ThANKHS for this!

[@drawforyou]

this interview was only about a year before Sam died. Prophetic words indeed.

[@LovesTrueSoul]

I was a boy when I first saw this and loved it like you wouldn't believe. When I was in High School I had this on video and played this episode out. I used "Time after Time" as my all-state audition.

[@joejayno]

Wow man....Sammy is amazing man. I was so young at the time. But man the things he just told Arsenio dats love man. from a legend

[@freddiesoverbite6162]

I heard Arsenio on Howard Stern talking about this. I remember it from when I was a kid but I had to watch it again. Sammy was the coolest of all the cats man.

[@alexeonsarjoo9414]

My God... what a class act!💛

[@box5bastard277]

Now that was perfect. Sammy was that equal, personal idol of mines. Rip great one yell

[@rjnuzzi1648]

Greatness... Hopefully never forgotten

[@valeriekitover7363]

What happened to Show Biz people….Really….Sammy has talent….class and just….everything!…..What a beautiful rendition of a wonderful song….

[@mackjack8024]

That Was so Good. Just so on the spot unrehearsed Raw! lnfact l wished this was released live on a cd. His voice was rich.. He's 63 here.. he would be Gone 3yrs later at 66.He refused surgery because he didnt want to lose his voice. He could have lived longer. Of course he would be near be 90 today. This was in the early 1990s.Miss him.

[@josephhardaway3]

Actually, Sammy Davis Jr died in 1990 the following year on May at the age of 64.

[@MrApache85]

first time i hear him sing,,im hooked!!

[@victornewman06]

Magnificent!!!!! I honestly got a little watery-eyed after that!!!! RIP Sammy, I know you are jammin' in heaven. :)

[@cindyrafn3438]

Amazing wonderful entertainer! So much class loved Sammy 😊

[@waltervaught8896]

Iconic sammy Davis jr.

[@J.B24]

All your years of learning tunes and playing smokey clubs, all the preparation and practice leads up to the moment when Sammy Davis walks up to you on live television says "Give me TIme After Time in D. Ready?". That is the test of whether a musician is worth his salary.

[@jeffkatt]

I wonder if he ever got a chance to come back before he passed. He had such a great stage presence. One of the coolest & classiest guys around. RIP.....🙏🏾🎤♥️😎
