The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. The Ed Sullivan Show is well known for bringing rock n' roll music to the forefront of American culture through acts like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. It also frequently featured stars of Motown such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder and The Jackson 5. The Ed Sullivan Show was one of the only places on American television where such a wide variety of popular culture was showcased and its legacy lives on to this day.

I love that she was popular in the USA and appeared on Ed Sullivan.
Eight times on Sullivan!
The greatest singer of all times - will never be replaced - Resting in peace now
I went to Paris as a young woman with my parents - Our very first visit was Père Lachaise Cemetary to visit Édith Piaf's grave- she died in 1963
My all time favourite vocalist - no one grabs my heart like her. She is immortal
Ace teen eco champion/ethical vegan Greta Thunberg's musically talented Mother Malena Eernman and younger sister Beata Ernman perfomed in a Stockholm musical theatre tribute to Edith Paif, as an adult and as a youngster respectively, pandemic-delayed till 2022.
this is a gem! I never knew she could speak English
Neither did Edith !
She is speaking phonetically what was written for her, and rehearsed.
I’ve never listened to her speak before. This is my first time
Greatest performer I ever saw in my 87 years . . . and I saw a great many of them.
She looks so young and fresh here. Not at all the image I've retained of her.
Did you ever see Sinatra?
@@tonycantu3491 No, but I've heard him sing thousands of times and seen him sing hundreds of times on film and video. He was a "singer" not a "performer"; there was nothing breathtaking about his appearance. When he was rehearsing for a performance at the Monte Carlo Red Cross Gala and Amália Rodrigues entered, he immediately got down to give the stage to her. We're talking about great artists not popular performers.
@@MrCrowebobby I just wondered given your age that you would have seen him in his prime. I'm three decades younger, but was able to see him twice in concert (albeit in the later stages of his career). While a very different artist than the great Piaf, Sinatra was a consummate performer as well -- although not as dramatic as the Little Sparrow. His phrasing and breath control was breathtaking to me. Anyway, I don't mean to be argumentative about any of this as I love both artists. As a big Sinatra fan, I was just very curious if you had ever seen him in person. Thanks for the reply!
@@tonycantu3491 Sorry, I took that the wrong way and got over defensive. I recognize his talent, but to me Piaf had something far above talent. Apologies.
This song was a major instrumental hit in the U.S. in 1956. It charted at #1 on the Hot 100 for Les Baxter, and other versions by Lawrence Welk and Russ Morgan also hit the charts. In the U.K., the big hit version was by Winifred Atwell. Edith is charming as always! This is from the same show on which she sang "Black Denim Trousers and Motorcycle Boots".
Tom Smith... You are the description box for this channel. Thank you for posting all the wonderful information about the singer and the song. I like to know those things... I find it quite interesting. I always look forward to reading your posts... thanks again! 😊
@@that70sgirl90 Thank you so much for your kind comments; they really made my day!
There must have been a collective mental breakdown in our society in the fifties because this song is horrible... Like nails on a chalkboard
Yeah, she slept her way to the top of German society in the 30's-40's
@@SteveinSanFrancisco She was one of the greatest singers of the 20th Century and the biggest star France ever produced.
One of the greatest performers of the 20th century
A giant of talent graced earth so briefly
Love the little sparrow. Such a blessed and tragic soul. I pray that she's happy now.
My father used to whistle this song when he was working in the garage. I became a fan of Edith and stumbled on this song on a record. To my amazement it was my dad's song. I adore her.
Her English pronunciation omg 😍
I just love her facial expressions in this! Of all of the Ed Sullivan performances I have seen, here she seems the most relaxed.
We sang this is school in Verdun in 1957
her amazing hands
she was such a force of nature
she was a complete genius
one of musics most important voices....
Edith Piaf
Anyone who lived in New Orleans in the 1960s and 70s remembers this song as the theme music of Schwegmann's Grocery Store.
Bonjour cousine! Bonjour du Québec. What a voice she had!
Oh my gosh I've never been more happy to see this
More about Édith Piaf please!
There are several films and biographies about her; one of the best written by her "adopted" sister -- the companion of her youth.
That’s why I have subscribed to this channel: Piaf
superbe voix notre Edith nationale personne ne peu la remplacée .
Omg, The Legend Herself.
Magnifique Edith Piaf !... 💫
* Wow! Never knew this song had lyrics! ☺
LA MOME PIAF TOUJOURS DANS MON COEUR POUR L 'ETERNITE💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💌💌💌💌💌💌💌💔💔💔💔💔
Woahhhhhhhhhhh speechless
Without love we are nothing at all!
Esos si eran artistas de verdad ❤
Thanks for the great memories
On en redemande
Merci grandement
OH MON DIEU !!!
THE GRANDE ESSENTIAL ÉDITH PIAF.
Thank you!
As I recall, as a kid, Ed Sullivan's variety show was called "Toast of the Town"
Amo esta canción, sin duda una de las mejores
Es magnífica.
La grande édith en Amérique.
Quel triomphe.c est magnifique.
Thanks for this amazing upload
love edith piaf's voice
Amo essa cantora
Love her voice!
Que impresionante Edith Piaf
Love this song
Bela voz,não me canso de ouvi-la.
sans amour on est rien du tout...french title is la goualante du pauvre Jean
I think it is a song about 'Poor Johnny' but not about the poor people.
In French 'Jean' and 'Gens' are almost equally pronounced (linguists call it 'homophones'), which may have led to a wrong translation into English.
ВЕЛИКАЯ!!!
It is not the poor people of Paris, but poor Johnny from Paris !
Just a little mistake, yet I admire Edith Piaf. What a great singer with a great voice.
Also known as "Jeans Song" !
Yes, La Goualante de Pauvre Jean. The French word 'gens' (people) sounds exactly like 'Jean', which is how the English title came to be The Poor People (of Paris)
Genial
❤️❤️❤️💐💐💐
💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
As a French guy, I’m really surprised to see our Edith Piaf in the Ed Sullivan Show !!
💜💜💜
Edith ❤️
edith piaf au ed sullivan show , c'est pas rien.!, merci de pouvoir enfin apprecier en bonne qualité.
Esgourdez rien qu'un instant
La goualante du pauvre Jean
Que les femmes n'aimaient pas
Mais n'oubliez pas
Dans la vie y a qu'une morale
Qu'on soit riche ou sans un sou
Sans amour on n'est rien du tout
(On n'est rien du tout)
Il vivait au jour le jour
Dans la soie et le velours
Il pionçait dans de beaux draps
Mais n'oubliez pas
Dans la vie on est peau d'balle
Quand notre cœur est au clou
Sans amour on n'est rien du tout
(On n'est rien du tout)
Il bectait chez des barons
Il guinchait dans les salons
Et lichait tous les tafias
Mais n'oubliez pas
Rien ne vaut une belle fille
Qui partage votre ragoût
Sans amour on n'est rien du tout
(On n'est rien du tout)
Pour gagner des picaillons
Il fut un méchant larron
On le saluait bien bas
Mais n'oubliez pas
Un jour on fait la pirouette
Et derrière les verrous
Sans amour on n'est rien du tout
(On n'est rien du tout)
Esgourdez bien, jeunes gens
Profitez de vos 20 ans
On ne les a qu'une fois
Et n'oubliez pas
Plutôt qu'une cordelette
Mieux vaut une femme à son cou
Sans amour on n'est rien du tout
(On n'est rien du tout)
Et voilà, mes braves gens
La goualante du pauvre Jean
Qui vous dit en vous quittant
"Aimez vous", padam-padam-pam, tsoin
👍
Sullivan e Piaf se conheceram!🤔
👍🌟🇸🇰
1:40 as i learned from a documentary about her life , she wrote this incredible emotional, powefull , heartbreakibg song the aftrrnoon she had found out her love had died far away in a car crash. Devastating.
Love this sing equally enotionally as "Ne me quite pas" frim Jacques Brel and "Sag mir wo die Blumen sind" von Marlene Dietrich. (A long with " Lilly Marlene-German texted off course)
She didn’t write this song… I think you are mixing her songs up
@@jonldn . If you know i was mistaken for this specific song...(and if i misunderstood the documentary) why not add proove of the real composer and textwriter? Ty.
@@jofo3197 because the “proof” is very easy to find on an simple google search and I wrote the comment for others who might believe what you have written incorrectly as many like you who post comments without checking their facts . But as an aid to you (as you sound aggressive ) look up Hymne à l'amour. And Piaf’s relationship with Marcel Cerdan .
@@jofo3197 and as a further help look up “La goualante du pauvre Jean" ("The Ballad of Poor John") To find the origins of this song .
@@jofo3197 look up song "La goualante du pauvre Jean" ("The Ballad of Poor John"),
Now I know frank sinatra went crazy when he go to paris all this talent singer
Brasileiros?
Brazilians?
I feel like I saving Private Ryan...
oh Ed Sullivan doing sh...there
First time I hear Edith speaking English.
This girl was one of the great loves of Marlene Dietrich's life.
Piaf was 14 years younger. Ooh la la!
@Andrew
Whatever THAT means...🙄
Marcel Cerdan, a boxer, was the serious love relationship of Edith's life.
Azanavour: always classy
I want the lyrics
The actual french lyrics
Google them.
Ja wohl
I didn’t realize she spoke English
She didn't.
@@MrCrowebobby she’s speaking English in the video
@@MegaSheen15 She's speaking very hesitant, broken English, which she may have learned for the show. When she sang in English, she learned the lyrics phonetically. She didn't really speak English. Greatest performer I ever saw in my 87 years . . . and I saw a great many of them. I saw her live twice: once at Carnegie Hall and again at the Olympia in Paris.
@@MrCrowebobby did she speak in between songs?
@@MegaSheen15 Once when the orchestra started too soon, but it was in the same hesitant "It's very IMportant." It was the greatest performance I've ever seen, but I can assure you she didn't "speak" English other than the minimum any European would pick up being bombarded with it all their life. Here is something I wrote about her Carnegie performance.
I was 19 and heard about Piaf from an older mentor/friend who had lived in Europe. I almost wore out her album, though I didn't understand French at the time. This friend bought my ticket for the concert. It was an incredibly chic and sophisticated audience: many looked like they were from the foreign embassies in New York. The stage was bare except for the red theater curtain and it was a good 15 minutes after show time before Piaf walked out to thunderous applause. She looked slightly bewildered -- as if she was the cleaning woman and had wandered onto the stage by accident.
She was tiny (4'10”) and wore a plain black dress with just a silver cross for jewelry. She reached the center of the stage and stood before the mike with her open hands covering the front of her hips, her feet planted shoulder width apart and suddenly this tremendous voice you couldn't believe was coming out of this tiny woman filled the hall. The orchestra (some 20 pieces) was behind the curtain throughout the show.
And as soon as she finished singing, she went back to being this tiny creature who couldn't possible be the person you had just heard sing. Her face was incredibly expressive when she sang, but even more so were her hands. She stood almost perfectly still throughout a song, but her hands moved it as if they were separate beings, running up and down her body when she was singing about a lover's caress; putting one hand over her lower belly as if she were carrying a lover's baby when she sang of a lover dying or leaving her; and she would sometimes cover half her face with one hand (which a singer is never supposed to do, but which Judy Garland also did). Liza Minnelli says Piaf told her “Use only one gesture per song.” Meaning, of course, one signature gesture.)
I later lived in Paris and saw her perform with her last lover, Théo Sarapo , when she was close to death. By then I could understand the lyrics to all of her songs. The duet she did with him “A Quoi Ca Sert L'amour ” (What Use is Love) isn't one of her most famous or best, but seeing them do it together (he was a very young 26 and she was a very old 46) embodied everything she had sung about all her life.
I love edith but I just heard this song for the first time and almost twisted my ankle running to change the channel... truly terrible song!!!
LA CANCION DEL POBRE JUAN........CON LA EXTRAORDINARIA MADAME EDITH..PIAF........SIGA CANTANDO MADAME POR SIEMPRE....RIP.🌹🌹🌹
Who’s here to see her after hearing her name on Saving Private Ryan?
Ed is embarrassing
