Her talented daughter Liza Minelli refused to sing it, out respect for her mother. I don't think any other vocalists attempted it - they knew they cold not compare with Judy. I doubt if any performer has been so strongly identified with a song.
@@MaskedMan66 Iv heard her several times claim to be 15. Perhaps the movie was released at 16, but Iv seen countless Judy docs where she claimed to be 15 when the movie was filmed.
@@girlinblack8643 she had a hard life right when she was born when she started her career her mom got her on drugs to keep her slim the industry has had on her and that's all I heard about her
I doubt anyone ever called her "ugly." She did not fit the movie studio's very narrow ideals of beauty, at least before she blossomed, so she was seen as imperfect.
Beauty is the eyes of the beholder. In today’s standards, she’s considered adorable imho. But back then, unfortunately that’s not the case. Sad but there’s a lot of those even going around to this very day
@@jonathannocon Movie studios and modeling agencies in those days had rather rigid standards of beauty, according to which, Judy's forehead was too big, her eyes were too wide apart, her nose was too button, and she had a gap in her teeth. The teeth were an easy fix; in fact, Mervyn LeRoy paid for the procedure out of his own pocket. As for the rest, audiences thought Judy was lovely, and MGM make-up artists learned to work with her features as they were. There are tales like that of all sorts; Rita Hayworth, for instance, had what was considered too low a hairline, so she had it shaved back.
I saw Judy’s early Oz makeup before director Victor Fleming made changes to then Judy’s makeup to what we would all come to know it as in the final cut, and she definitely had the looks department there also. Too much so that they had to dumb it down to make her look “younger & poorer” to suite Dorothy’s back story accordingly. Judy was a young, very talented and had all the trademarks of a super star that there were no doubt ppl in that field that were threatened by her rather quick success. Hence calling her ‘not pretty enough’ and so forth to subtlety stab her in her back which I’d imagine is the norm socialite(s) behaviour(s) & high society Hollywood at that era. Especially in the entertainment biz afaik.
It's not correct to say that 'vibrato is powerful'. Technically it's not correct to describe vibrato in this way. What you mean is you like her vibrato, the consistency, its speed and the fact that it may be punchy, etc, but it is not correct to say 'powerful'. You can describe her voice, chest voice, etc as powerful.
@@organisationxiv2927 yeah but to the average person it sounds powerful, no offence I doubt the person who wrote the original comment cares what the exact right terms are but it’s those technical terms that you mentioned that makes it powerful. This is coming from from somebody who is training in drama school and has voice lessons and singing lessons daily. It’s perfectly acceptable to say someone’s vibrato is powerful… you just have gone in to minute detail about why it’s powerful
She said the hardest thing she ever had to do was be Judy Garland - Hollywood destroyed another beautiful girl/soul - but it does not take away from her beauty, grandeur and wonder. And I still have not got the feeling of awe from any other movie than I did when I watched the Wizard of Oz for the first time: especially when she started singing this song. Rest in peace, sweetheart.
No Computers, No high tunes, Not special microphones, Just pure raw, sophisticated, Natural Talent, perfect song, perfect singer, the genius of Judy Garland forever, No one has came close to HER, is 2017 and she still the Greatest❤❤❤
Watch her eyes. Holy shit she looks miserable. But then at the last line, she kills it like an opera singer, and for a moment, she's happy, because she knows exactly how damn good she is. Nobody can take that away from her.
that's the tragedy: they used and abused her. they popped her full of drugs and then act surprised when she burnt out so quick. no one will ever pay for those crimes.
How in the world do you see her as looking "miserable?" You're superimposing the ridiculous notion too many people have of Judy being tragically miserable 24/7 over a simple performance of a song that she loved. She may look intense, but that's just the kind of performer she was. "Miserable" indeed. Yeesh!
Even here you can tell she's damaged, they stole her soul. Only 21yo here and I could tell she's not happy, she's damaged. They killed her ultimately not the drug addiction.
i disagree, this is judy at her best, the fact that she's invoking melancholy and hope through the melody is just her skill, she's not damaged in this video she's skilled.
Lea Conway - You clearly don’t know her story. She was definitely damaged already. She had been on drugs since she was a teenager and was forced to diet and do drugs during the filming of The Wizard of Oz and was forced to smoke cigarettes and take antidepressants on top of the other drugs they were giving her and she was only 16 or 17 years old. She was already damaged as a child too because of her mother. So you clearly have no idea what you’re talking about.
I love how she belts this one a bit more - but love how somber and understated her performance was in the actual movie. Keeping the movie version so much more yearning and longing and reflective rather than bombastic is what made it last a century. But that's why I like that there is this version too. It glorious getting to here her cut loose on it a bit!

Hi, I noticed that she looked towards someone i believe to give her courage maybe? How beautiful it was to see her proud of herself at the end , what a beautiful woman, she probably ran fast to another gig for money, makes me so angry, her own mother basically and the studio's pimped her out
I'm 20 soon to be 21 this is one of my favorites I just love the oldies I grew up around older folks so it makes sense in my taste in music and this will be the last song I ever hear along with the Carter family's Wildwood Flower
No, but she would be the first person to say that anyone who loves the song is perfectly welcome to sing it. And there have been many excellent renditions of it; two that spring to mind are by Ai Kago and P!nk.
She did a special on TV back in the 60's my dad loved her when she sang, at the end she thanked all of her fans for sticking behiond her when she had problems, this was the first time I saw my dad shed any tears.
There’s a melancholy feeling and realization to this song and the symbiotic connection with this amazing gift and soul. Few songs move me to tears and emotions, this one does both and more.
She was always in a hurry. It was the drugs, and nobody could keep up with her, actually. Can't you see how her eyes flicker all over the place? She tried to control it by staring at the mic, but it didn't help much.
That little smile as she ends HER song with absolute perfection is so heart warming, it makes me believe that her artistry and talent gave her great joy, in spite of all the hardships she experienced. She was obviously in a hurry, but she still took a moment to acknowledge the Conductor and the orchestra as she always did. I’ve seen hundreds of her performances on video, and she NEVER failed to acknowledge the orchestra, or pianist who accompanied her. What a classy star! RIP the best that ever was!
THANK YOU! YOU get it! There are so many people here who think she was "suffering" and left in a hurry because she "couldn't take it" and garbage like that. People don't understand that Judy's real troubles began after "Wizard."
this is my favorite movie and song. I'm 53 & this song always makes me cry. I can relate to Dorothy being so sad and wanting to go somewhere else where she can be happy.
I'm pushin' 61 & we watched this film on TV every year as a family. Judy singing this song still gets me every time. It is a song of struggle, trying, yearning, trying...& never quite getting there. always barely out of reach. The end of the song says it all...as if the writer took a cue from Baum's life when he wrote it.
I would like to no more about your wisdom on Baum. I am very curious about what you wrote stating "like a cue from Baum's life." I actually saw 1 of the 3 pair of ruby slippers left in 2001 in Washington, D.C. absolutely amazing. even had a huge blow up photo of the scene w/the pelican on the lawn when they meet the wicked witch and the tin man. no one believes me on this, but, it is there. go look?
Baum had many set-backs in his life in the 19th century world he was born into. He was actually scared by a scarecrow he happened upon while playing as a boy near the home in the middle of NY State. It obviously stuck with him. He wrote & produced plays in play houses his father financed, which eventually went bust. He married Maud Gauge against her mother's wishes in the 1880's, then moved to Aberdeen, Dakota territory. His stories reflected life around him. Droughts & all. Many farmers there went bust during the industrial age's beginning by the time he got there though. He opened a store selling luxury goods anyway. They were in hock for everything they owned. The store was forced to close in the 1890's. He then bought & renamed a local newspaper that he illustrated. He wrote about a tornado that picked up a house & dropped it 2 miles away. So here you can see Dorothy's house winding up in Oz. Dorothy was based on the women of the high plains he'd known & see struggling to survive in the Dakota territory. Many people left the Aberdeen area from mortgage losses & an Indian uprising that never happened. His newspaper then slowly failed. His health began to fail from all the travel & working at so many things to, " make it". He then was basically forced to turn to writing. His many stories of Oz tried to show that dreams can come true. But, in life, they surely didn't.
thank you for all that info. lots of stuff I never knew. but, don't forget to look 4 the pelican! dreams do come true but sometimes you have to go thru a tornado OR 2 to get there. I'm living proof, clinically dead 5 times & survived an abduction w/intent 2 murder. God bless you
Glad you found it interesting. He had many adventures in his life with Maud. But the only one that seemed to work at all were his Oz stories. The name came from a filing cabinet, named O to Z.
In a Jack Paar Show in 1962 she sang a duet with Roubert Goulet. Amazing her voice even at this stage was nearly as big as his. A treat to hear them sing.
I still get chills when I hear this song. My mom loved this song as she was raised in Kansas. We played this song by Judy at my mom's wake and funeral....miss you mom!
I wanted to save Dorothy Gale in The Wizard of Oz and I wish I could have saved Judy Garland in real life. She was a special one amongst even the most special. Once in a lifetime talent.
She nailed this performance and this song. The end tho, she took a small bow and went offstage. I do Truely believe Hollywood killed her. Thank God for these child labor laws now. RIP judy
Laurie Faith Prescott - wasn't just the labour laws it was the evil deeds of those satanist pedophiles of hollywood and her greedy mother who did that to her..
What a genius she was. They destroyed her in many ways but not her voice or her spirit. She lifts my soul when I hear her sing. Thank you Judy for all you’ve done for us fans❤
"They" who? Judy had a hand in her own problems, but she was not a walking tragedy. She had good times as well as bad, and a sharp, wicked sense of humor.

His health began to fail from all the travel & working at so many things to, " make it". He then was basically forced to turn to writing. His many stories of Oz tried to show that dreams can come true. But, in life, they surely didn't.
thank you for all that info. lots of stuff I never knew. but, don't forget to look 4 the pelican! dreams do come true but sometimes you have to go thru a tornado OR 2 to get there. I'm living proof, clinically dead 5 times & survived an abduction w/intent 2 murder. God bless you
Glad you found it interesting. He had many adventures in his life with Maud. But the only one that seemed to work at all were his Oz stories. The name came from a filing cabinet, named O to Z.
She's got the voice of an angel 💕💕💕
Always amazing to see all the Judy Garland experts in these comments.
She is one in a million ❤
I miss Judy Garland a lot.
Me too
Everytime I hear her I cry for her. She was beauitful in everyway. God bless her.
Flying with my feelings, beauty, just in time.
If she was alive now. I would just love to met her, hug her and tell her she was beautiful just the way she is. Love you Judy.
I’ve been in love with her my entire life.
That tone though! It's just full and rich in color. I just love it!
Today's her birthday! We still love you, Judy! 😢 There will be always a place for you in our hearts.
That was a killer performance. She nailed that one.
this song cannot be sung any better than this......
A voice like that doesn’t exist anymore. Such a beautiful woman x
Chezzarai sings this song on RUclips, just posted today
so is she only valued for her talent??
Breaks my heart to wonder how many people never told this woman “you did a great job.”
Her vibrato and her ability to sustain is so pure. I love her so much
In a Jack Paar Show in 1962 she sang a duet with Roubert Goulet. Amazing her voice even at this stage was nearly as big as his. A treat to hear them sing.
@@JRobbySh Well, she'd been at it a bit longer than him! ;-)
This song was rated #1 in all of movie history. Judy was a prodigy born with immense talent. She was unique.in the world of entertainment. R.I.P.
Simple and beautifully magnificent
No one can sing this song better than Judy at any time. Judy is forever.
You are wrong, buddy. Doris Day's version is much better.
I believe you are minority, friend.

@@mikevaljean9468 No.
I still get chills when I hear this song. My mom loved this song as she was raised in Kansas. We played this song by Judy at my mom's wake and funeral....miss you mom!
Rest in peace mom
So sorry to hear this my mom passed and she loved that song as well may she Rest In Peace❤️🙏
Chills when I hear her sing anything!
Her vibrato is so strong.

Amazing voice in such a petite woman Thank You Judy Garland for singing this beautiful eternal song
Awesome voice and awesome presence.
OMG....That was beautiful. I fell in love with Judy Garland when I was kid not realizing OZ was a 35 year old movie....
In the 70’s right?
@@num1Jaysta WIzard of oz is from 1939 lol
No singer was quite like Judy. No one.
I wanted to save Dorothy Gale in The Wizard of Oz and I wish I could have saved Judy Garland in real life. She was a special one amongst even the most special. Once in a lifetime talent.
We all wish we could had... :(
@@princesspeachfan100 she was before my time but what a women.

Beautiful voice 😍 so magical!!!
What an amazing voice she had.
The ending was utter perfection
I’m 74 years old and I believe this video is one of America’s greatest musical treasures.
Still nobody who sings this song better!
The one and only. RIP darling Judy.
Judy garland was simply THE GREATEST ENTERTAINER THAT EVER LIVED AND BREATHED 🌈
I concur!
She was truly beautiful fick you Hollywood
She nailed this performance and this song. The end tho, she took a small bow and went offstage. I do Truely believe Hollywood killed her. Thank God for these child labor laws now. RIP judy
Laurie Faith Prescott - wasn't just the labour laws it was the evil deeds of those satanist pedophiles of hollywood and her greedy mother who did that to her..
Yes, she seemed to be in a hurry to get out of there...
She stopped smiling when you couldn’t fully see her whole face
They had child labor laws then; Judy only worked for four hours a day when she made "The Wizard of Oz."

No Talent anywhere today can compare to The Voice of this Angel !!!
Her daughter Liza comes darn close, though.
💞💞💞💞💞💞💞
Thank you so much Judy !!!
Beautiful voice
Bing, Sinatra, Judy. All came from the 30's. They were great for decades to come. Top 3 of all time.
Bing actually got started in the 20's, around the time that Judy was born. 🙂
What a genius she was. They destroyed her in many ways but not her voice or her spirit. She lifts my soul when I hear her sing. Thank you Judy for all you’ve done for us fans❤
"They" who? Judy had a hand in her own problems, but she was not a walking tragedy. She had good times as well as bad, and a sharp, wicked sense of humor.
