Wow. The sentiment of everything, his facial expressions, half nostalgic smile, his look, the lyrics. The instruments of the background and the atmosphere they create. Simply astonishing, two and a half minutes of something that hardly fits in words
@ Electronics. Wrong! Nat King Cole was not lip synching when he sang "Autumn Leaves" on his NBC-TV show! The proof of that is that Nat altered the emphasis and vocal inflections on some of the lyrics in his TV show performance of that song from the way he sang the song on his record album!
@ Electronics. But Nat did not make 2 separate studio recordings of "Autumn Leaves". The clear indication that he was not lip synching that song on his NBC-TV show was the extra long pause he made at the end of the song before he sang the last words of the song, ".....start to fall."
How absolutely stunning. In 1957, Nat King Cole had one of the highest rated shows on NBC-TV. It ended because stations in the South wouldn't run it, and because the show couldn't get a national sponsor. What a freaking tragedy of racism.
My Mum died on April 9th 2023. She absolutely adored Nat King Cole. Every song I listen of his gets to the core of the pain in me that misses her so much. In each song there's a lyric that says it all and it breaks me to tears. He was indeed a handsome man and a perfect singer.
My mother was a big fan of his. She went to the hs he had graduated from .. south side Chicago back then bomb. Black folks back then stuck together that's how we had HAROLD. Great love and we need it now.
Fabulous singer and a real gentleman. Great voice. His musicians were phenomenal. Miss him dearly. Left us too soon. May Jehova God Bless him and remember him at the RESURRECTION I ask this in Jesus's Name.
The falling leaves drift by my window The autumn leaves of red and gold I see your lips the summer kisses The sunburned hands I used to hold Since you went away the days grow long And soon I'll hear old winter's song But I miss you most of all my darling When autumn leaves start to fall Since you went away the days grow long And soon I'll hear old winter's song But I miss you most of all my darling When autumn leaves start to fall Yes I miss you most of all my darling When autumn leaves start to fall
My sister Genevieve used to sing this song to me when I was little. She passed away from covid, October 10, 2021, we are coming up on one year of my sweet sister being gone. This song now takes on a new meaning.😢
@@koaguilds Your last sentence touched me deeply...it is so true and you expressed it so perfectly. Sending you my best wishes and thinking of you from afar.
What a touching performing! His manner of singing helps to feel every beautiful sound. This song returns you to youth when you didn't pay attention to the falling leaves. But now each falling leaf means the passed day of your life. Though sad but warm recollections of the bright days which filled your heart with love and hopes. ❤❤❤
It’s sad because back then the audio is buzzy and that’s why everyone sounds the same, but since technology has evolved and audio sounds so high quality, no one knew there true voices
Sorry man, but entertainer is not a very good word for Nat King Cole. He is not entertaining me, he is healing my soul. Jennifer Lopez is an entertainer, even though she doesn't entertain me either but for completely other reasons.
The best version of this song ever. Nat King Cole, the most romantic voice on the planet, perhaps in the whole universe. We'll never have another one like him.
Just heard him sing this as one of the songs on "My Week With Marilyn" a film about her making "Prince And The Showgirl" with Laurence Olivier from the perspective of a young 3rd Assistant in the film who she was attracted to.
Nat king,Frank Sinatra,Dean Martin ..... they were the greatest thing happened to this planet earth,they will always remain the greatest ever and ever.
Nat 'King' Cole - One of my favorite singers FOR ALL TIME! I listened to him as a child growing up over fifty years ago as my Mom and Dad loved his music as well and played his records all the time in my childhood home on the old time phonograph player we had in our home. I still listen to his lovely, smooth as silk voice to this very day in my own home in my sixties! 🥰🤩😍
My grandmother grew me up on Nat. She was so non biased in her life and I can say I grew up the same and I appreciate her influence. She and I were both military nurses and thanks to her I became such a Good Samaritan.
The dead leaves dust by fellow nigro The falling leaves of red and gold I remember your lips and the summer kisses The dark brown hands I used to hold Since you went away the days turn long And soon I'll hear old sirens song But if you know what, l missed most of all, my darling When autumn leaves start to fall Rearrengement and changes by Me 18/07/ 2021
I wasn't born during his reign and death, but since I dabbled into Nat's songs some years back I can't get enough of it. Making me feel as if I was listening to it while he was alive.its magical. Great musician
It's incredible.... We're in the year 2011 and watching and listening through the internet to one of the best singers the history of music has ever had... Technology is annoying.....but this is SO worth it... Don't let new generations skip these magical moments of true beauty in art. Greetings from Argentina ♥
My wife was in a nursing home & late last summer I heard this song & something in my spirit told me she wouldn't make it through autumn. She passed away December 12.
21 years old: that gives me hope. Keep it alive. This was the first tune I ever learned on tenor sax. It was also my Dad's favourite song, but sadly I discovered this only after he died.
Holy shit, I knew Nat King Cole was good, of course he was, he's Nat King Cole, but a holy hell this man was monstrous. That was gorgeous. That is easily one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard
Just discovered this song when watching a classic movie by the same name with Joan Crawford and Cliff Roberson. This song is simply stunning. Nat Cole was an incredible talent.
Ah. I love him. Just so beautiful. And it’s never Christmas until I hear The Christmas Song from him. I met his brother Freddy, in 2011. Sadly, Freddy is now gone too (2020). RIP 🙏
I think I was 12 when "Ramblin' Rose" first hit the radio, the first time I ever heard Mr. Cole sing. I said something to Dad about how pretty the song was and he went into a long spiel about Mr. Cole and his music. Wow! Loved him since that day.
Que voz linda. Quanta elegância prá cantar. Me deu até vontade de chorar, depois de ouvir essa bela canção de origem francesa, ser gravada por um dos melhores cantores de todos os tempos.❤
His voice was a gift from God.
🙏
Truly!
Who's better than Mr. Smooth himself? As Jack Benny said, Nat "King" Cole is the best friend a song ever had.
@@mcoo465👠💄❤️🔥😮💨😩😫😪😘🥰😍
still can't believe those white bastards beat the shit out of him for playing white-music(?)
Nobody, but nobody tops Mr Nat King Cole, not then, not now! ❤
Agree..
He’s definitely smooth!
I love Louis Armstrong too
Para mim, o melhor cantor do mundo 🌎
Nunca houve um cantor como Nat King Cole ❤
Insuperável!
This video alone is older than me, but this is just my type of music, they don't make these kinds of masterpieces anymore.
That's for sure. An age that will never return. So sad.
Yes❤
Wow.
The sentiment of everything, his facial expressions, half nostalgic smile, his look, the lyrics. The instruments of the background and the atmosphere they create.
Simply astonishing, two and a half minutes of something that hardly fits in words
He doesnt need any extravagant tech to sing. Just pure art
Great voice!
And the purest heart.
what makes you say that

Everyone's loss
America's foolishness will be forever engraved in history books
Mike Rocha and yet people try to erase it.
Those who erase history are destined to repeat it
@W B I appreciate your comment. Thank you.
To the new generation! Don’t let this song die!! Please 🙏🏼
My Grandpa just passed and requested this to be played for my Grandma who passed in 1984. This is a love that I wished the world could see and feel.

I adore his voice, his charm. We need more. He was a beautiful soul.
Yep
My mother was a big fan of his. She went to the hs he had graduated from .. south side Chicago back then bomb. Black folks back then stuck together that's how we had HAROLD. Great love and we need it now.
Luv in it
💯
Amen to that 🙏
They tried to hold him back, but talent like that of Mr. Nat "King" Cole could not be stopped. Bless you, Nat.
I didn't know that. Because of his Race?

The falling leaves drift by my window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips the summer kisses
The sunburned hands I used to hold
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
Yes I miss you most of all my darling

@@malak-xs1hr Thank you.
No One Does It Better.... Mr. Cole's voice is TIMELESS ❤️
Try listening to Eva Cassidy.
I try to imagine her in a duet with Nat King Cole...
Now that would be heavenly !
Listen to Fayrouz in a song that reminds you of autumn. It's really the most beautiful
Try the original, the french version by Yves Montand, just perfection.
Eva Cassidy does.
the original is a million times better: ruclips.net/video/Xo1C6E7jbPw/видео.html
His facial expressions combined with his extraordinary voice makes this a truly brilliant performance.
Such gentleman..he is.
Reminds me of my 4 year old son. Who passed away brings a rear to my eye❤😢
Missing my Mama right now. Autumn was her favorite season.
You’ll see her in time. Appreciate the world - live for the moment that will let you live in the future.
@@koaguilds Your last sentence touched me deeply...it is so true and you expressed it so perfectly. Sending you my best wishes and thinking of you from afar.
@@koaguilds be sure your mom`s guarding you from above :)
Same here. I used to play this on the guitar for my mom.
Me, too! My Mama used to play this song on the piano.
It's amazing how much I enjoy hearing this in 2023.
Another proof that a good work of art never dies
the french original is so much more in my opinion : ruclips.net/video/Xo1C6E7jbPw/видео.html
My mom's favorite Nat song. This song will always remind me of her. She passed away in 2009 and loved all the old crooner music of this era.
Same mine.
My mom loved Nat King Cole too. She's the one who turned me on to him. I am a HUGE fan to this day.
진짜 생각 날 떄마다 들으러 오는데 라이브 깨쩔고 저 표정과 여유로움

There has been one like, this amazingly talented man . He was very much ahead of his time. Thank you for the memories ❤.
Nat King Cole has no credible competition. He is not just Unforgettable, but Uncomparable X

My dad collected many of his albums. Such purity of voice will never ever exist. A great singer and entertainer.
Sorry man, but entertainer is not a very good word for Nat King Cole. He is not entertaining me, he is healing my soul. Jennifer Lopez is an entertainer, even though she doesn't entertain me either but for completely other reasons.
My Mother's favorite singer!
Волшебно. Без спецэффектов и подтанцовок, а как трогает за душу.
The best version of this song ever. Nat King Cole, the most romantic voice on the planet, perhaps in the whole universe. We'll never have another one like him.
The Best version is in French lol
Si señor , Nat king Cole maravilloso
i think emmy rossums is the best version
The best version is the OG french one.
Ledisi does a nice version as well 🎤 🎶 ❤
Oh my, Nat King Cole what a beautiful voice. Makes me smile and appreciate the magic of his voice. 😊

+sher lock You forgot Doris Day. Also Audrey Hepburn.
+Jesse Serenade they are great too but those three i loved the most because all my childhood i have learned so much from them admired them the most
+sher lock Don't forget Andy Williams, Tony Bennett, Johnny Mathis, and Ella Fiztgerald !
I don't think there is a good, better, or best...the greatest singers of all time are the ones that you love the most.
Then you've obviously never heard Daryl Coley.
OMG he was a real singer. This is art!!!!
It's such a sad, heartbreaking song - sung in the purest and humblest way possible. We don't have such singers any more.
They don’t make music like this anymore - he is so talented and missed dearly
There is a quote, attributed to Jack Benny: "Nat Cole is the best friend a song could have." The man could sing, could make a song his own.
Nat 'King' Cole - One of my favorite singers FOR ALL TIME!

Truly one of the greatest voices of all time.
My Mother Died in March, and I Just Wish She Could have Endured To See The Leaves Once Again. I Love You Mama.

There isn't anyone who can touch,, Nat King Cole's melodic voice...simply thee best!
except the original one of course: ruclips.net/video/Xo1C6E7jbPw/видео.html
The best version of this song has to be by Nat king Cole, never ever tire of it, BEAUTIFUL!!!!
This one is magnificent, but for me the best version is the instrumental by Paul Simon, Chet Baker, Steve Gad, etc.
Don't forget Clapton!
I could listen to it over and over.
its just beautiful but i suggest you listen to Eva Cassidy’s version on youtube … just as beautiful perhaps even more …

A true masterpiece. He is singing from the heart
He had one of the most beautiful voices of all time.

What an extraordinary voice and outstanding musician: singer and pianist, and lot of talent behind!
When listening to this song I wished to live in that era ❤
Masterpiece Forever
Oh, that matchless voice!
Such a natural delivery. Like he's living in the song. Sometimes, a person who didn't write the song can still own it.
The King.❤
Nat just slays this classic
A Titan of the music.🎺🎺🎺
I love Nat King Cole’s performances. He’s often been an inspiration for my music.
The man with the velvet voice ❤
Thank God for Nat King Cole. A one in a billion voice, magnificent. The musicians are fantastic too.
He was a wonderful Jazz Pianist as well as a fine singer. Andre Previn said he'd heard no better Jazz Pianist than Nat Cole.

What's amazing is his intonation and his capacity to sing and really actually sound very English. Such a rich voice and he sure can carry a note.
Just discovered this song when watching a classic movie by the same name with Joan Crawford and Cliff Roberson. This song is simply stunning. Nat Cole was an incredible talent.
Some songs bring tears no matter the season...
