Because if he did, it would come off as if it was rehearsed; he wanted to be as natural as possible and have fun with it. This is what made it a success.
Dean was my dad's hero. his simple way of presenting himself in whatever manner he wanted to you to believe he was in. we lost dean Dec 25 1995. I lost my dad Nov 28 2011. dean helps me with the healing. "In winter its a.... marshmallow world...."
+amistry605 ya he did. in 95. I had an aggressive stomach virus and my dad actually woke me up not to open gifts Christmas morning but to tell me Dino had passed. as dean sang "ain't that a kick in the head". thank you for your kind words btw.
Thank you and you're welcome. I was only 1 in 95 and dont remember this. In fact, i just discovered Dean Martins singing and music this holiday season. Take care :)
"I beg your pardon" hahaha! I love Dean Martin, he's such a hilarious person!! He's like that really funny uncle you wish you had. I love back in the day, the times when everyone acted hilarious and super drunk because that was the shtick, the thing to do. I mean that slapstick adorable-ness! Minus the smoking, that was the most adorable era.
He sure loved his cigarettes........it was his symbol of his identity, of who he really was. On almost every show he's done or was in.........there's nothing better then having a cigarette on hand.........while singing. He was surley a legend in his time...........an icon. As they say......good talent doesn't die........it just lingers, through out enturnity.
Dean Martin:An ABSOLUTE LEGEND. World class singer and entertainer with one of the best vocals ever heard on record. Dean Martin's version of the CHRISTMAS CLASSIC "It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas"is the quintessential version of this beautiful ballard. Deano....You are one of the supreme best. Thank you for the brilliant music and the many,many,many laughs.
As I understand it, it was in his contract that he didn't have to rehearse. He just came in on the day of taping, did the show cold, and left. And it worked.
I like his version of this song. I recall this episode from when new on tv. I grew up watching his weekly variety show. I don't know why some people hate this song, it has a good beat and he is simply singing about enjoying a snowy landscape with a woman.
I grew up during this time and I remember one time my Mom saying "There's not a bone in that man's body that wasn't naughty..." She said it with a smirk and my Mom...she didn't smirk.
Dean was never NOT hip. Even the guys wished they could hang out with him. Jerry Lewis himself thought Dean was one of the funniest hilarious entertainers ever.
Jerry Lewis admitted that It was Dean who made their act work for those 10 years. He could do straight man or jump in and do Comedy at a drop of pin. Jerry said he could not be a straight man to easy
Well in terms of NOT hip to the modern music industry of then, he wasn't. But yeah, he sounded like a barrel of laughs to be with. Interestingly he was a loner. He never liked people getting too close to him. After a few weeks playing golf with you, he'd get rid of you. I do not think Sinatra and Martin were as close as people thought, but maybe they were. We should understand that what they put out is their professional personality. When they leave the stage, they become someone else.
They don't make'em like that any more. Dean was a real man's man. If it was today, singing with two fawning lovelies (not to mention smoking a cigarette) would definitely get him cancelled from Twitter 🥳
Coming up on the 50th anniversary of this show. As most everyone knows Dean was famous for not rehearsing and basically just read the cue cards and acknowledged it.
Though he was a well known heavy smoker, it was also used as part of his trademark; it just wouldn't be the same without his trademark cigarette 🚬 and apple 🍎 juice to make it look like booze.
Can't even say I "rediscovered" Dean Martin cos' I literally only heard of him. But saw an interview with Adam Levine, who thinks DM has a nice style of just coming on stage (with a drink and a cig) casual and doing his song:) Well this random pick was a good sampling of that ;D
the tuxedo was invented for Dean Martin, no one can wear it like him
Well.....I think Cary Grant gives Dean pretty good competition! ;-)
What a natural he is. He didn't need choreography. All he had to do was just be himself. His personality just shines through.
There'll never be another like him!
I was just thinking the same thing. We had all the greats!
Not a chance. Not ever. The Pound Me Too movement will see to that.
Funny seeing you hear 🙂. Great minds think alike. Lol. Merry Christmas
If this doesn't put a smile on your face, nothing will. Brillaint mix of comedy and that legendary voice.
One can tell he's singing live and what a sublime voice even while he's fooling around. Amazing.
Dean Martin NEVER rehearsed. He just wanted to have fun and it shows.
Because if he did, it would come off as if it was rehearsed; he wanted to be as natural as possible and have fun with it. This is what made it a success.
Christmas 1995 was when we lost this treasure. :(
My friend asked me "Dean Martin, or Frank Sinatra?" Dean Martin!!!
yes dean evert time even more so than elvis.
Frank did not actually sing very well so...
Frank tried too hard ... Dean was effortless ...
Same here ....Dino always!
@@nathalieconnor5803 take that back
His skill is being so prepared at looking unprepared, An entertainer. So good.
Love this so much 😂dean is awesome ❤❤❤ wonderful man

im sorry about your loss... did Dean Martin really pass on Christmas day?
+amistry605 ya he did. in 95. I had an aggressive stomach virus and my dad actually woke me up not to open gifts Christmas morning but to tell me Dino had passed. as dean sang "ain't that a kick in the head". thank you for your kind words btw.

Not to be insensitive here, but it's good that your dad got to meet his hero.
My Dad was a Dean Martin fan and I am as well. Bless Dean and our fathers and may all Rest In Peace
Always had that cigarette. Gotta love Dean. His show was awesome.
When a Christmas special was just that, special!
I can't get this outta my head!
Captured the era perfectly, in my view.
A much better time.
Happy New Year, folks :)

Totally agree with you Zenia, be well.

This is one of my favorite songs. Love Dean Martin. No one can fill his shoes.
Dean is my favorite member of the Pack! Beats of Frank by a mile! In song, film, and TV!!
That's DINO FOR YA'LL, THE VOICE JUST GETS BETTER ALL THE TIME@!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Merry Christmas everyone 2019
The last year of sanity…wish I enjoyed 2019 more
I always find it interesting that he is famous for so many Christmas songs, and he died on a Christmas Day, I believe.
True.
His mother als die on Christmas day! The day Dean died my heart broke!
There will never be another Dean Martin.
The best times those days. With the rat pack. Dean was always great. A legend
That warble ... that voice
Dean always seemed so happy, like he was having a really good time. I guess he was.
Dean Martin:An ABSOLUTE LEGEND.

Deano....You are one of the supreme best.
Thank you for the brilliant music and the many,many,many laughs.
It’s was a better world back then.
Understatement
Jesus, did this man rehearse? Probably not, so natural and so fun!
As I understand it, it was in his contract that he didn't have to rehearse. He just came in on the day of taping, did the show cold, and left. And it worked.
Love the song....n Dean is the best 👌....love him...😀❤🍷 so much fun...he is beautiful oxox God bless baby....
A MASTER.
He was a classic for sure.
Them was better days, and Dino was one reason why.
I miss Dean Martin. God bless him! ❤
Great clip... Dean and Christmas together is just the best !!
I remember this as a kid. I was 11 when this aired.
I like his version of this song. I recall this episode from when new on tv. I grew up watching his weekly variety show. I don't know why some people hate this song, it has a good beat and he is simply singing about enjoying a snowy landscape with a woman.
Played this for my grandson this Christmas truly my favorite 💙 ❤
Dean Martin, truly the best
The coolest cat!!
one of the truly greats, most are all gone sadly
at least we got Drake still...
amistry605 did you just compare drake to Dean Martin? On a different note, we still have Tony Bennett
Fabulous!! And smoking!! Huahuahua great Dean
Love love love Dino
A good man, never takes himself seriously just making sure everyone has fun!
Yea
Much love for Dean
Merry Christmas!
The MOST underrated Christmas song! And what a fun performance! 😂♥️
Christmas 2019- Its begun...
❤❤❤❤
Dean Martin's signature Christmas song 👍
Merry Christmas 2014, Miss you Dean
Marshmallows
This is the cutest thing ever 😂😍
He was so good he hardly had to try! Thanks for the memories Deeno!
Just from looking at this video it's pretty obvious they don't make Christmas specials anymore.
1:43 is my favorite part
I grew up during this time and I remember one time my Mom saying "There's not a bone in that man's body that wasn't naughty..." She said it with a smirk and my Mom...she didn't smirk.
Merry Christmas 2020!🎄🎅🎁🎇⛄
Loved this man. His singing and shows.
So funny & so talented too!
I miss dean so much ther will never be eny one like him agan

He's so blasted and having a great time. So funny I can't stop laughing. Love those days Brings back so many memories
They don't make'em like that any more.
Dean was a real man's man.
If it was today, singing with two fawning lovelies (not to mention smoking a cigarette) would definitely get him cancelled from Twitter 🥳
The world was so much better before Twitter
Oh my awesome
True talent and the "real" factor just cant be found anymo.
+Brad Thomson So true, Brad.
Love Dino, what a voice !
Wish I had been alive to see this man in his prime
He was part of our life every week. Coming from an Italian family Deano was the "uncle" we all loved.
My gawd deano you handsome crooner rip to you sir 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
So much Joy and freedom ❄️❄️❄️
Pure happieness
a truly amazing man
Merry Christmas 2021!🎄🎄🎅🎅🎁🎁
love this song
Dean was so funny!! A tue entertainer.
I was talking with a woman who was one of the Golddiggers and she said he never rehearsed and was drinking tea!
Coming up on the 50th anniversary of this show. As most everyone knows Dean was famous for not rehearsing and basically just read the cue cards and acknowledged it.
Such a boss
Love this! Xxx
Keep those cards and letters coming in because Jeannie and I read them every night!
Excellently neat yet very super groovy job fellows!! Well done.🧛♂️🥰🥰🥰😂😂🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🌎🌎
Thanks for these videos.
I watched every one of his shows!
I love this man and that show so much. ❤️❤️❤️ Good memories
Dean doing that whole song with a lit cigarette 😂
Though he was a well known heavy smoker, it was also used as part of his trademark; it just wouldn't be the same without his trademark cigarette 🚬 and apple 🍎 juice to make it look like booze.
Definitely my new favorite Christmas song.
Classic song, cheers
What a pro Dean was
LOVE IT!!!
",,,whenever it schnows..."
Best Xmas song, ever. Dean is so frickin' hammered... love it!
If so even drunk he sings better than most of the human race
omg! that's the best! just made my day! :)
MY FAVOURITE VERSION OF THIS SONG
The best 🥃
EL REY DE LA NOCHE¡¡
Thanks...love it ❤️
Deano thanks for putting Dino on you tube you're a 💍 deano XXXXXX 💓🌸🌸💝💚💙💟💟💟♥️♥️♥️❤️💟💜💞❣️💟💜💞❣️♥️💙💚💓❣️❣️♥️💞💞❣️💟💜

Explendido!
Amazing!!
The best. He and Andy
The best!
Genio.
Ahhh the good ole days when people had fun, smoked, drank and the women were feminine. Everyone was happier.
I'm with you there buddy 😊
Yup
Living life instead of living a political nightmare. People need to learn how to have fun again.
And people in the US hated commies.
💯 agree with Ribeye68 and all the replies 🥂🍾🎉
At 0:46; Only Dean......
