Sammy is, was and always will be the greatest of all time. The true G.O.A.T. I wish I was older then I'd have had him in my life longer. But I discovered him at 18 so there were quite a few years to enjoy him. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sammy has always been the greatest one man entertainer in my book. Truly, I feel lucky and privileged to have watched him perform in person not once, but twice in my lifetime.
I was fortunate to see Sammy several times. Once in Las Vegas, Frank was a bit sick and Sammy replaced him with a two hour show. Another time in Chicago after he was sitting in a secluded area and signed autographs for about a half hour or so. He was one of a kind. RIP Sammy and know your are gone but not forgotten.
Many years ago, my young wife and I were invited to dinner at my uncle's house in Manhattan. He was a powerhouse agent and a good friend of Sammy Davis. There were nine of us, and Sammy was the guest of honor. He was so relaxed, friendly, charming.
He was , so beautiful, so amazing... so profoundly cross-culturally brilliantly-opening doors . I don't want you to read this and think i'm new, and shallow.. but it is time to say respect where huge respect is due........................ all love to his family.. xx
Sammy davis jr.was capable of singing any song better than the original artist.i am convinced that sammy can perform anyones act,but no one can duplicate his.i guess thats why sammy davis jr.was considered the greatest entertainer that ever lived.sammy was in a league of his own.from robert,the s.f.giant fan.
As a huge Sinatra fan, I love his version of "You will be my music", but I'm thinking now, maybe it should have been given to Sam to record it. It really suits his Sammy's vocal style.
One of my all time favorites. I saw him perform at the MGM Grande in the early 80’s with the Count Basie Orchestra. His arrangement of What Kind Of Fool Am I still sends chills down my spine.
How good were those Sammy Davis Jr. times! What a complete artist! How good it is to hear Sammy Davis Jr.! Sammy, Dean, Frank and Co. Good, good, good times!!!
Sammy was one of the best. I remember seeing him in Chicago many years ago. He's as talented as any person could be. Love being able to bring him back to live on RUclips!
Sonja ross,you were almost correct in stating sammy was one of the best.actually he was not only the best,but the greatest entertainer that ever lived.
The My Way orchestration here is very beautiful 😍 I wish performed Sinatra tried this kind of orchestration. I wish more SDJ clips to be uploaded he is more better than other singers
Buenas tardes a todos, es gratificante ver a una personalidad auténtica verdadera, versátil, no hay quien iguale lo que hizo Mr Sammy, no se sabe cuántos años más pasen estaré constantemente viendo todo lo relaciona con Mr Sammy. Jose Lenin.
We saw him in the 70’s. He wanted to do Music Man’s Ya Got Trouble in River City but his wife didn’t like him doing it. It was too physically draining. He did it anyway “because she ain’t here tonight” and of course knocked it out of the ballpark.
Uma das figuras mais icônicas da música americana. Um Show Man e multi instrumentista. Dono de uma voz e senso de humor inconfundíveis. Grandioso, que deixou saudades. Que Deus o tenha.
Absolutely Wonderful!*!! Sammy sings all these amazing songs so beautifully, a true master of the art … 🎶🎤🥰❤️💖 A wonderful, talented, versatile, all round artist, performer & entertainer … 🎶🎤🕺🎭🎬🥰❤️💖💖
I grew up with Sammy Davis and Frank Sinatra, and the rest of the Rat Pack Dean Martin and Peter Lawford and even Jerry Lewis (he wasn't part of the Rat Pack)
Sammy was a skinny little guy but a tremendous talent, he could just about do it all, but he would have never had the chance except for his friend, Sinatra, saying he wouldn't perform unless they let Sammy perform at the big casinos too. Sammy was a 4-pack-a-day+ smoker, and it gave him throat cancer and, killed him at age 64. His "friends" went in and robbed all his artifacts when he died. Sad loss of a big voice and a nice guy.
Witchcraft, o "Bruixeria in Català", and My Way o "A la Meva Manera" in Català cantades pel gran Sammy Davis Jr quines cançons més boniques, les dues cantades in Tribut al seu gran amic Frank Sinatra!!!
In Sam's early days he & his own family we're hired to perform across the Country for peanuts.. Sam & his own Dad & own family had to change in back rooms , basements & even in parking lots & alleys.. When Frank asked Sammy Davis Jr. To join him on tours , even before the 1960s Oceans 11 Movie numerous Club venues across the Country.. Frank Sinatra would tell the owners , club managers that were predominantly white people , My Family Members ( Mr. Davis) is to be paid above scale & have his own room , with the same extras as you give to me!! Or you'll be making a lasting mistake.. He would always reply to the White racist owners & managers by saying quietly in the ear " I don't ever ask twice & I don't ever give passes" Let's just say, you'll never see a RUclips video regarding this subject!!! I was told first hand by my Dad, Uncles from a very Catholic, Union & yes White , Detroit, Michigan, Heavy Union Involved Family.. There will never be another Sammy Davis Jr.
sammy loved frank and sinatra was always there for sammy..especially after he lost his eye in the crash.....but..it was not without conflict..sinatra was not happy with sammys overtures towards ava and sammy at times did not appreciate dean and franks racist jokes directed toward sammy in their ...rat pack act
Not so sure why Sammy had is addiction to Frank Sinatra? Did Sammy just wanna be a part of the Frank Sinatra culture? Man Sammy could have done better than that and current Frank Sinatra culture. Dean Seattle
Thing is when Sammy was struggling for acceptance Frank was kicking down the early doors that opened the way for Sammy to struggle through enabling him to really start smashing down the barriers. Sam went on to be greater than all of them put together.♥️😍
Sammy is, was and always will be the greatest of all time. The true G.O.A.T. I wish I was older then I'd have had him in my life longer. But I discovered him at 18 so there were quite a few years to enjoy him.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
A great singer (greater than the world recognized) who pays homage to the greatest! What a show! What a sound! I am deeply moved 😢
Sammy has a certain type of energy that we will never get again
There are not enough superlatives to describe just how good Sammy is here.
Replay , replay ,replay! Born too late Sammy David Jnr …… Regretfully!!!

I was born in the wrong era, I am so drawn to people like Sammy, Dean, and Frank!
Indeed
Me too.
Me too ✋
Me to 🙁
I had the priviledge to have been born un the 50s
Still listening to this beautiful song on November 19, 2024🇬🇾
I remember elvis opened in vegas and sammy was in the audience cheering. Elvis bought sammy a diamond ring that sammy wore till he died
Many years ago, my young wife and I were invited to dinner at my uncle's house in Manhattan. He was a powerhouse agent and a good friend of Sammy Davis. There were nine of us, and Sammy was the guest of honor. He was so relaxed, friendly, charming.
Lucky you 👍 to have met him that way!
When i, one minute ago, wrote the previous comment, he sang "My way" - thereof the comment "that way" (just hope it didn't "sound"wrong...!)
This is a star!!! Love you sammy!!!
When you've watched everything else, you realise Sam was the GREATEST.
oh yes!
weskitten, could not agree more.
He was , so beautiful, so amazing... so profoundly cross-culturally brilliantly-opening doors . I don't want you to read this and think i'm new, and shallow.. but it is time to say respect where huge respect is due........................ all love to his family.. xx
Amen

If a genie in a bottle gave me three wishes one of them would be to see Sammy Davis Jr perform live it would be a dream come true.
He gets better the older I get and certainly more appreciative of his talent!
Craig Berman loved sammy! What a loving cool man
Sammy KILLS "I'll Never Smile Again"! OH MY GOSH!
The greatest entertainer of all time with out a doubt
The way he sings...I love him, Sammy ❤️ he always put a smile on my face💖👏👏👏👏

Thank you Jim Nelson. Their relationship was not perfect -name one-. They each loved the other as brothers, which Frank stated in his tribute to Sam.
a true crooner... holding his own with Frank,
Music was so beautiful back then!!! Now it’s about wap money and gays
No Frank no Sammy. Period
sammy loved frank and sinatra was always there for sammy..especially after he lost his eye in the crash.....but..it was not without conflict..sinatra was not happy with sammys overtures towards ava and sammy at times did not appreciate dean and franks racist jokes directed toward sammy in their ...rat pack act
What is the 1st song
I'll never smile again.big 1940 hit for the Dorsey a n and and Frank !!
@@neilmckillop8952 thank you!
alain deon
He was a better singer than Sinatra and funnier than than Dean. Just a class act. But, he really shines when he speaks to his audience.
Bruno mars look a like sammy
Not so sure why Sammy had is addiction to Frank Sinatra? Did Sammy just wanna be a part of the Frank Sinatra culture? Man Sammy could have done better than that and current Frank Sinatra culture.
