Mr. Harry Connick Jr. has real talent.
He was singing and playing the piano right at the tender age of 10.
Amazing! So sweet and smart and kind. Its a shame his Mama didn't get to see him play piano and sing.
I had no idea he was this talented. His jazz playing is superb.
The more l know about Harry, the more l realize what an amazing, talented man he is. He is kind and loving to everyone. A great human being...
he is an amazing genius
EXTREMELY talented from day one, a supportive family, financial assistance from father when needed=CHARMED LIFE.
Harry I love you!!!! Rock on my love!!!! What a time of knowing there are people like you
It’s March 28/2020 and we are in lockdown due to this dreadfully frightening global pandemic.
I have always liked Harry but am now in awe. I have been watching these wonderful celebrities worldwide on RUclips still broadcasting from their own homes on mobile phones and I’m very grateful for the entertainment. Thankyou from Australia.
I had never really heard too much about Harry Cornick, Jr., but I am frankly impressed by this man's life story. He seems to work hard to do those things he really enjoys in his career. I'll definitely keep my ears open to hear more of this hard working artist's music and roles he choses throughout his life.
harry just makes me smile. accomplished in many ways/areas, master of just being a good, decent, kind hearted human being. he's got my vote.
What an incredibly gifted and humble man. Top entertainer and human being.
Thanks for it all Harry!
What wonderful documentary.
IM DEFINITELY A HARRY CONNICK JR.FAN NOW
HE SEEMS VERY SWEET SMART GENUINE
IM SORRY HIS MOM DIDNT LIVE TO SEE THE WONDERFUL MAN HER SON IS.
THANK YOU HARRY.
I like the guy too. As a musician myself, I think Harry is underrated. So, he came to Australia years ago and was asked if he had eaten Vegemite (staple Australian spread) and what he thought of it. His response; _"It tasted like cat shit."_ Cracked me up.
Me too
Just an amazing MAN, LIFE , TALENT AND FAITH, all wrapped up in one vessel. LOVE watching him perform.Makes you forget all about COVID AND ALL EVIL IN OUR BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY! GOD BLESS HIM.
What an amazing man. He has a fantastic gift and his personality is amazing... it doesn't hurt that he is as cute as hell!!! LOL. I love him.
Check out the article about John Connick Sr., his . ...father in the New Yorker. What his New Orleans D.A. office did to John Thompson and others is sickening.
@@hankterreros223 Well, I did, but I really wish it was a print "article" as it would be easier to thoroughly digest. Unlike RUclips, you just can't replay a short segment if you don't quite catch or remember a detail. Then you have to start at the beginning. If it were a print article, no problem spotting any issue you have with any part of the whole layout. Still, thanks for this depressing reminder of the scary US ,judicial system.

This guy is the reason why I'm going to be a jazz muscian.
Kemar Jarrett ...me too. Oh, shit. I'm still just a hiphop white boy trying to get paid for playing the trombone and singing standards, and I'm only fifty-seven and a half years old. And if I ever get enough money, I'm hiring Mr. Connick and his wonderful arranging skills, and Mr. Jerry Weldon, and we'll go around Europe until things calm doon over there in the unaited straits.
@@normantrombon You both need to find new role models.
Lovely....keep it going 🌈
All of his friends are so sweet and also nice.
I loved Harry in the movie Hope Floats , he was a simple man . Hard working, good morals, tall and handsome, from a small town country boy. I just loved him in that movie. I never knew he had all that talent starting as a young boy.
I Loved his role in The Iron Giant, he's one of the things that make that movie awesome.
I have always liked him. I had no idea his career started so young and so talented.
He's just so gifted and with a wonderful personality and soul as well. Just imagine if everyone in the world had the support system and parenting that Harry did whilst growing up. The world would be so much different....full of beauty and talent that touches the world.
A gracious nod to Harry for staying true to his own style of music and making it his own. And he can sing too! Well done dude! I'm so very happy you have been gifted this magical, beautiful life and following your dreams while giving the world something to aspire to and truly enjoy!
i was honored to get to shoot several of those interviews...just a "few" years ago in NOLA. :-)
And I was the DP who shot Harry, his wife, and the Marsalis interviews in New York. Small world! And yes...many years ago! The producer is long passed away. Wombat Productions...
Branford Marsalis interview...
And as you know, with regards to "headroom," we were always shooting for "TV safe"...so far more than today!

He is an amazing person.
Grew up in a wealthy family yet he is so refreshingly grounded and authentic.
He must have had amazing parents and lots of luck.
Talented, humble, good looking and educated.
I always wanted to have a man like him as my partner.
Harry has really opened my eyes on a different genre. I love his style and personality. He got a whole lot of soul in him. You would swear he had an uncle named Jamal or Leroy, or an elder they call "Big Mama!!😁
forever and ever AMEN!

So happy l fell in love with this man starring as an origional, class act in "Hope Floats"!
Turns out he's all that and more!!! Amazing life story of a quality gentleman with extraordinary talents ❣
His father was the nemesis of Jim Garrison, of JFK and New Orleans DA fame. An American hero *
When I saw Eubie Blake playing with Harry my memory went to what. E.Blake had to say about the reasons so many left for Europe" there is more respect for the individual".
Im a massive fan...I've been searching for one of my fav tunes, New Orleans
shuffle, but can't find it!
The piano playing is fantastic but that smooth crooners voice gets me every time. I’m from Mobile Alabama and proud to know he’s got c onnections here.
Ok- looking forward to his concert on 4th of July!👍
Harry's Mama seemed like she knew that was gonna be a star someday.
Ah...if he could only be my son-in-law!....Definitely in an alternate reality, and having the same unique qualities he has in this one! I have been in awe of this guy for many years now. Hey, God... thank you for the gift of HC,Jr! Oh yeah...🙏🎶✌😁🎶🎵❣💖🦋
He’s So Awesome 👏❤️😻🥰
Music music through and through : a great artist with more to give. Please.
Sweeet man with a blessed voice,Thankyou Harry
Thanks for the video. I really enjoyed it. I have some of his performances shown here that I recorded on VHS from my television, but who knows where they are? Somewhere in a box in my house...anyway it’s nice to see it again. This man is so incredibly super talented and it is interesting to learn more details about his life. His parents definitely raised him correctly. I could see how proud his father is of him and I’m sure his mother was also. And I really loved hearing him speak so lovingly of his parents and children. He is a very genuine person, and continues to speak lovingly of his family even to this day. If more of us could be like Mr. H. C. Jr.....wow, what a wonderful world it would be. 🙂
The greatest 🤩
God given gift. Thanks for sharing your talent
Enjoyed that. I didn’t realize what a serious musician he is
I saw an interview of Harry at 14 when he was studying with jazz piano great George Shearing and I try to remember what I was doing at 14.
he really was raised well by his parents...
He is so out of this world.
So glad to find this on You Tube. This is such an uplifting video, I feel wonderful having watched it and the memories of Harry and friends
Wow, I've always enjoyed his work - but I never knew how deep and wide it was. What a great biography!!!
Jill Goodacre SO BEAUTIFUL

How lucky can a person be?
I do not consider it "lucky" to be the son of a notorious NO CRIMINAL!
@@forreal245what do you mean?
W*O*W!!!!!!!!!! THE MOST TALENTED MAN ON THE PLANET!
Thank you so much my beautiful woman, for your kindness, love and support towards my career so far. I appreciate you a lot. 🥰❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊

Man. He's the sexiest man alive...

What a talent you are👍

He is one fine man and he knows it and that's okay. Lights camera action.
17:44 this is so fascinating.
love
This was screened a long time ago now, probably well over a decade (not this youtube post but the t.v. airing) and it was an excellent doco. As a jazz and funk musician I think HC is a genius and I love his work. Contrary though to most people's opinions I did not like his albums Your Songs and Only You which were more pop 'Mother's Day' type muzac. Even Harry himself had issues with the renowned producer 'Clive' who basically admitted to wanting to just sell as many copies as possible. Hence there was very little piano, no swing and only tiniest nods to jazz on those albums. Other people adored them and that is fine. I just felt he sold out to the masses on those albums. For this fan Harry will always be best seen as the Big Band piano playing genius. Funk and swing are in his genes and he is an incredible jazz pianist and arranger. Come By Me, was of his very best compositions showing that Harry can still be popular whilst not abandoning his New Orleans heritage. This is pretty much the point in his life that this doco finishes on. It would be interesting to see an updated extended version up to the current day. It was great to see even a clip of the Come By Me video - feels like yesterday but was so long ago. The joys of aging aren't really that great. I do thank Harry Connick Jr. though for producing such an enormous amount of music the very vast majority of which has given me and millions so much joy in our life. I hope we get a return to some more Harry the jazz pianist and Big Band leader in future releases.
I have cool guy he is and he turned out to be quite the gentleman and man wonderful husband and father I love his music I love his talents I could spend the day listen to him with no problems. It helps me to get in touch with me. Lights camera action.
He is definitely a 10 in all aspects.
Sweet
Moi aussi j'aime les musiciens qui chantent.
25, Blue Light Red Light, We are in Love, my teenager years, in my graduating yearbook I said 10 yrs id be swinging with HCjr
Impressive bio.
I’ve been a fan of Harry since She, then Star Turtle...Love the horns in his band. Then I saw a movie, can’t remember the name and there he was playing a really BAD character in prison I think and he was GOOD! There’s no end to his talent!
