Rosemary Clooney canta "Botch-A-Me" en el programa Colgate Comedy Hour en el año 1952 // Rosemary Clooney sings "Botch-A-Me" on The Colgate Comedy Hour 1952
Rosemary Clooney was an excellent actress. She didn't just sing her songs, she acted them out and was an outstanding song interpreter with outstanding stage presence.
Rosemary is having a ball singing this little gem and it shows in every second of this performance. Ah….these were the days when the best singers sang the best songs with great musical arrangements. All done without the technology needed today to make a lousy singer sound brilliantly good. Talent was all you needed and if you looked good too it helped. But Rosemary bounced along with her happy smile and saucy grin and she had a screen presence like no other. Class wins every time 🇬🇧🇺🇸❤️
Her nephew will never reach her class nor get even close to her STATUS as an elegant human. He can marry "educated " trash but never reach her lowest heel print.
@Adriano Castellano She's of Irish ancestry, as well as English and German... same as my ancestry. Even her autobiography is titled: "This for Remembrance: the Autobiography of Rosemary Clooney, an Irish-American Singer"
@Adriano Castellano hmmmm I read over my reply..... twice even.... don't see the word grandparents in there at all.... I said ANCESTRY... SHE considered herself Irish American... so who are you to say she can't... or that she didn't have Irish, English and German blood running through her veins. Don't dismiss a person's ethnic identity just because they're not as close to "the old country" as you.
@Adriano Castellano oh good gosh.... she is PART Irish, through both parents.... so sorry I didn't break it down into percentages. It's bloody semantics! She called herself Irish American... her last name is Irish... so I called her an Irish lassie.... it's not that big a deal. I wasn't born in Ireland, Germany or England, yet I claim that heritage. Although, even I am closer to my heritage than she was... I have a set of great grandparents who were born in Germany and another set who were born in Ireland. If you choose to not consider yourself Italian American, that's your prerogative. To each his or her own. Just sit back, enjoy her music, and be glad that we can agree to disagree.
Oy vey that dress!!!!! Exhibit A: if you want to know how a 1950s dress should be worn turn to Ms Clooney! She was just stunning. Thank you for sharing this! I want that dress!!!!
Naturalidad y control del tempo. Extraordinaria actriz-cantante o cantante actriz. Que forma de expresar la letra de la canción. Que swing !!! una canción rítmica donde la propia letra marca el ritmo y ella adelantando y retrasando el tiempo. Parece fácil pero hay que tener mucho talento y control. Es la mejor versión que he escuchado y su lenguaje gestual es la guinda a una actuación para enmarcar.
@skywize seriously me too! haha i swear when i listen to her songs, it's like she's smiling AS she recorded them! like, i HEAR her smile ... for me, she's the only artist who does that!!!!!

Twelve of her thirty-five charted records were duets, four with Tony Pastor and one each with Guy Michell, Marlene Dietrich, Gene Autry, Harry James, George Morgan, Jimmy Boyd, Betty Clooney, and Benny Goodman... Rosemary Clooney passed away at the age of 74 on June 29th, 2002... May she R.I.P. * And from the 'For What It's Worth' department, the remainder of the Most Selling Pop Singles' Top 10 on August 2nd, 1952: At #3. "Half As Much" by Rosemary Clooney #4. "Delicado" by Percy Faith with Stan Freeman on harpsichord #5. "Here In My Heart" by Al Martino #6. "Walkin' My Baby Back Home" by Johnnie Ray #7. "Blue Tango" by Leroy Anderson #8.

Bee-oo, bye-oh, bee-oo, boo When you botch-a-me, I a-botcha you ("C'mon a-you, kissa me, eh?!!") Bah-bah, botch-a-me, bambino Bah-bah-bo, bo, boca piccolino And then we will raise a great big family Tra la la la la la la la la Bee-oo, bye-oh, bee-oo, boo Botch-a-me, bambino, botch-a-me ("That's nice!!")
They were playing name-that-tune on an old radio program "You Bet Your Life" with Groucho Marx. This song was played as a clip-- and they recognized it. Me, I had to figure out the questionably English title, but got me here. Jerry Fielding's orchestra did a great job!
She looks like she has some meat on her to me, but less than in the 1960s, and especially the 1980s and 1990s. Her stage presence was as good as any singer.
Botch-a-me, I'll-botcha you and ev'rything goes crazy Bah-bah, botch-a-me, bambino Bah-bah-bo, bo, boca piccolino When you kiss me and I'm a-kissa you Tra la la la la la la la la loo Bah-bah, botch-a-me, my baby Bah-bah-bo, bo, just say "Yes" and maybe If-a you squeeze me and I'm a-squeeza you Tra la la la la la la la la loo Bee-oo, bye-oh, bee-oo, boo Won't you botch-a-, botch-a-me?

("Kiss me!!")
I love Rosemary Clooney! Question: Does she look unusually thin in this clip? I guess I'm just a little partial to "Pleasantly-Curvy Rosemary Clooney" e.g. "White Christmas"...only my favorite movie of all time!!!
I believe there’s a difference between an Irish woman singing an Italian song, and a white man dressing as a Native American chief or wearing Blackface...
she really performs the heck outta this song. she knew how to sell it. not just a pretty voice. a phenomenal singing actress!
Absolutely. She's just possibly the very best. She's a goddess

Love it! .... Props to Mad Men for finding this jem!
yeah i found it there haha
I love her facial expressions and hand and arm gestures, she has real showmanship and it seems like she was having fun with it.
I never understood the purpose of the arm gestures.. it does show she knows what shes doing!
she never liked this song however
Her nephew will never reach her class nor get even close to her STATUS as an elegant human.
He can marry "educated " trash but never reach her lowest heel print.
James Carson It was Come On-A My House that she hated.
Great voice! Lovely lady!
Such an ease in singing. I was honored to see her live in SanFrancisco in 1999 with Michael Feinstein on piano. Still had it then.
The family resemblance between Rosemary and George Clooney is strong.
I love her - she is arch AND flirtatious at the same time ;)
man, I was born 50 years too late, lmao. she is VERY cute!
Great Rosemary!
her dress is beautiful....I totally want it!!
Great dress
Class personified!
My 8 month old loves this song 😍
God I love this woman.
Me too
She's adorable
I think im in love
Mad Men(Season 1 Episode 7) :3 :P

@@eslamabd-elsattarghonem2070 vouch!
I remembered my Mom she was born on February 1934 and she told me before this song of Rosemary was hits in Philippines in 1950’s
Such a talented vocalist she was
Not bad for an Irish lassie now is it? lol it amazes me how she sang so many Italian themed songs... and of course did a bang up job!

favorite of my mother
Veramente eccezionale....
Fantastic singer
@shannina91 it was marketed as "botch-a-me" because an early fifties american market wouldnt know how the hell to pronounce "baciami"

Botchamania!
Same

She's too cute!!!!!!!! =D
Mad men send me here ! ^^
This would be in my top ten if I were to have to pick a theme song
Her Wikipedia says she wasn't Italian at all. This shocked me.
Bee-oo, bye-oh, bee-oo, boo
When you botch-a-me, I a-botcha you
("C'mon a-you, kissa me, eh?!!")
Bah-bah, botch-a-me, bambino
Bah-bah-bo, bo, boca piccolino
And then we will raise a great big family
Tra la la la la la la la la
Bee-oo, bye-oh, bee-oo, boo
Botch-a-me, bambino, botch-a-me
("That's nice!!")
Does anyone have the Mad Men version of this song? I'd really appreciate it!!!!
I've been looking for a while and I'm almost positive that this is the version they used in the show, only with restored sound.
It's on Spotify
Four years late but it’s this one ruclips.net/video/LoJH2INZ1Xc/видео.html
Elizabeth Holden 3 months later but it doesn’t work
@@ultraviolettas what a legend! 4 years later it's still one of my favorite shows! Thank you!
GILMORE GIRLS 💕
lol "botch-a-me" - Love the spelling
They were playing name-that-tune on an old radio program "You Bet Your Life" with Groucho Marx. This song was played as a clip-- and they recognized it. Me, I had to figure out the questionably English title, but got me here. Jerry Fielding's orchestra did a great job!
Yes, the title is questionable 😂 that's because they tried to make it sound like the original Italian title "Baciami"
Brilliant. Very strange but brilliant. Turns out one of her songs was number 1 on the day of my birth. Well there you go......
She looks like she has some meat on her to me, but less than in the 1960s, and especially the 1980s and 1990s. Her stage presence was as good as any singer.
I really like her, it’s a pity that she no longer has dreams
😊
I come from Mad Men S01E07
Gilmore girls brought me here
George resembles her around the eyes
Botchamania
Who's here after watching "The Royal Treatment "?😁
That part when she says "come on a you kiss a me eh?"
Botch-a-me, I'll-botcha you and ev'rything goes crazy
Bah-bah, botch-a-me, bambino
Bah-bah-bo, bo, boca piccolino
When you kiss me and I'm a-kissa you
Tra la la la la la la la la loo
Bah-bah, botch-a-me, my baby
Bah-bah-bo, bo, just say "Yes" and maybe
If-a you squeeze me and I'm a-squeeza you
Tra la la la la la la la la loo
Bee-oo, bye-oh, bee-oo, boo
Won't you botch-a-, botch-a-me?
Bee-oo, bye-oh, bee-oo, boo
When you botch-a-me, I a-botcha you and ev'rything goes crazy
lied is ganz gut, passt super zum neuen werbespot mit poppi und lira :D ^_^
Baciami piccolino-bambino (kiss me baby) It's italian ward
Bah-bah, botch-a-me, bambino

@HuellsJewels Mad Men?
I wish Sheridan Smith could play Rosemary Clooney in a biopic..
Very similar mannerisms..
where can i found the clean version of this? this is my favorite version.
The Rosemary Clooney Show: Songs Fom The Classic Television series album
Where can I get a dress like that !
Mad Men
I love Rosemary Clooney!
Question: Does she look unusually thin in this clip? I guess I'm just a little partial to "Pleasantly-Curvy Rosemary Clooney" e.g. "White Christmas"...only my favorite movie of all time!!!
dont give me that botch! its Ba ba baciami bambina, ok.
i don't understand nothing.. but i i give you a thumb up!
gwad knows `how difficult was this for me to find outt~
Vatcha-me I watch a you;)
Notice there are no Italians anywhere crying about racism or cultural appropriation
So true Carlito!
I believe there’s a difference between an Irish woman singing an Italian song, and a white man dressing as a Native American chief or wearing Blackface...
That’s because Italians aren’t big fat cry babies
Gilmore girls❤️❤️
OMG! She looks just like his nephew with a blonde wig on!
BTW it's BACIAMI (kiss me) not Botch-a-me!
Actually the song was released under the title "Botch-a-me".
Strong family genes, George Clooney actually favors her.
Common a you watch a me eh?
so beautiful..now a days s just make up...but shes a god
thumbs up if fakin maffew sent u here!
@R8dRLegendKilla YES YES YES YES YESYESYES (/Heenan)
Got this song on a stone plate , but in bad conditions , did to match played ..but appart .
I was a young (4 years old) pup when she recorded this!
What does "Botch-A-Me" mean?
It's the Italian for "Kiss me" but written wrong. Actually it's "Baciami" ;)
@GrievousGeorge STING, THE EXTREMELY WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION EXTREMELY
BOTCHAMANIA
maffew needs to see/use this.
Hex.... Hex.... Hex.... Hex.... Hex.... Hex...
It almost sounds like "Watcha me I Watcha you"
Even better that a ghost is singing in your mind as you watch it
In some Italian circles I believe kissing meant something other than affectionate love, but what is love?
It's "Baciami", not "Botch -A-me"
bin nur wegen dem e post brief hier. ;-)
Almost took it to be Ella Fitzgerald from the sound of it.
haha sie erinnert mich ein bisschen an lilly von how I met your mother
