I can't believe I live in a world where people have never heard Ella. I'm getting old.
I know.
Have you heard of Etta James? lol
Or Elizabeth Cotten (When I'm Gone/ Freight Train). :)
Sarah Vaughn anyone!
With you there...who hasn't heard of Ella?
Watch her duets. Especially with Louis Armstrong..
Ella and Louis doing the song
"Baby its cold outside"
One of my all time faves.
Ms Ella just gave a Master Class on Jazz singing. She coaxed the listener along with those long notes. She would throw in scats like they were nothing. She was in control the whole time and I loved every second of it!
Ella was primarily a jazz singer, so there are plenty of faster tempos in her catalog. Summertime is a classic, and this rendition is all about her voice. Both she and Billie Holiday have voices that remind me of wind instruments, the clarinet in particular. Keep diving in to Miss Ella, you won't be disappointed
The song is from George Gershwin's opera , Porgy and Bess.
Yes her ability to do scat is amazing but i like this bc she has almost blusey sultry voice here & i wish she also did more of that. She was so talented
How on Earth did you manage to get through life without hearing of Ella?!!! This is astonishing.
This is one of the greatest singers of the 20th Century, dude!
One of the most beautiful voices, and her version of Summertime just takes one's breath away!
YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT !!!! STUNNING PERFORMANCE!! I CRIED ,HEARING THIS.
Try Etta James singing At Last. Equally as beautiful.
Oh dear. I'm 56. I am constantly reminded of this when watching reaction videos. But a young Black man NOT knowing who Ella Fitzgerald is, is a crime. I'm glad you know now. Ella is a giant of Jazz. You could listen to. All Ella, all the time, for a solid year and you might not exhaust her catalog. And if you did, you would want to start over. Whether on the channel or off, you'll want to get to know Ella.
Can't believe I knew the word's! Love her...
Thank you for reacting to Ella Fitzgerald, one of the greatest, most famous & most highly regarded jazz singers of all time. You might enjoy reacting to more of her work.
I had the great good fortune to see her live in concert with Jazz at the Philharmonic way back in about 1956. It was one of the most memorable events of my very long life.
She was widely loved and admired. What a lady!!!
There is so much to learn about Ella Fitzgerald. Her music and her life story and the things she went through are incredible.
All I can say is this: keep listening to her. You will absolutely love the journey. A good starting point are her duets with another legendary musician, Louis Armstrong.
I would watch this movie if they ever would make it!
Possibly the best singer of all Time! Do more.
So fun to see you discover Ella. No one better, ever!!!! You could spend the rest of your life listening to her recordings.
I am so glad you have discovered Ella Fitzgerald. She was, and is, a legend.
Stevie Wonder referenced her in his song Sir Duke. She was the queen of skat! Such a glorious voice! And the way she used it throughout her career was just so beautiful!
She is a true American treasure and icon.
You are witnessing Royalty!! The Queen of jazz!
She was the Queen of Jazz!!
Ella is such a jazz legend & performed for over 6 decades. She was known for her purity of tone & scat singing. Love her version of "Summertime". She had a great solo career but also did quite a few collaborations with Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington & The Ink Spots. Some of their hits were "Dream A Little Dream Of Me", "Cheek to Cheek", "Into Each Life Some Rain Must Fall", & "It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing)". This is timeless music that has endured for decades.
Ella Fitzgerald, the "First Lady of Song", won 13 Grammy awards and sold over 40 million albums! You should check out her "Live from Berlin" version of "Mack the Knife" where she forgets the lyrics, makes up her own lyrics (!) and then...WINS A GRAMMY for it! It's the only time someone has won a Grammy for screwing up a song. Brilliant!
Ella is a legend!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Ella was definitely a jazz icon...as was Etta James and Sarah Vaughn :)
Summertime is from the opera, Porgy and Bess by George Gershwin, first performed in 1935. It's been covered countless times by many people (and movies?). Ella Fitzgerald is top tier. Thanks for reacting to this!
Ella Fitzgerald started as a popular band singer in the 30's, transitioned to jazz in the 40's and then in the 50's began recording "the great American songbook," all of the great standards. She is famous for her scat singing and her perfect pitch. One of the greatest voices of the 20th century. While this is a great rendition of "Summertime," you really need to listen to a wide variety of her work to get a feel for her versatility. She could sing the phone book and make it sound great.
my parents blared this song through the house in the 60'!!
She gives me chills buddy.
The song "Summertime" is from the musical Porgy And Bess. One of my favorite songs.
She was an amazing talent. I also remember her shattering a champagne glass with her voice. I believe it was a commercial for Memorex cassette tapes.
Is it live, or is it Memorex?
Ella never had to search for her notes. She simply opened her mouth and brought forth pure gold!
Ella is the GOAT of jazz. She’s got a huge library of recorded songs with plenty of upbeat music and skat.
She’s awesome
My fathers' favorite female singer (and I'm 69 years old)! I was raised on this music!
from Porgy and Bess
I remember her very well. Always loved her. She was at the White House often; such a well-respected talent of her time. Thanks sir for the reaction!
Love Miss Ella....no one has ever had a voice like hers. She makes my soul mellow, love her
Congratulations! May your discovery of Ella take you on a magical musical tour!
I love the smooth sound of
Miss Ella. I'm an old white woman of 50 that grew up with Ella, and Lena Horne, albums in our house... We listened to the greats and I am thrilled to hear you react to her...
The Delightful Ms. Ella could also sing scat with the best of the men!! Fast or slow, she was always remarkable!!!
Ella Fitzgerald was at the top of the jazz/blues genre. Few reached her standard. She did duets with Sinatra too and was frequently on t.v. so the whole family knew who she was. This was her rendition of Summertime. The song was written by George Gershwin for his operetta, "Porgy and Bess".
WOW....Hard to believe " never heard of ELLA". The old recording tape makers with is it Ella or a recording?
I am so grateful to my mother for introducing me to so many great singers such as the great Ella Fitzgerald, Mahalia Jackson, Nat King Cole and Louis Armstrong, Janis Joplin, Jimmy Hendrix, Johnny Cash, Frank Sinatra or bands like the Beatles, the Mammas and the Papas, the Byrds, the Zombies and the Who among many others. My mamma, God rest her, had an amazing and broad music taste.
I love Ella! She has a vast catalog of music. One of the best scatters ever
Omgosh I adore Ella Fitzgerald. U cannot find anything less than pure divine excellence from her work. 💜💜💜🌹💜💜💜 It's her soul 💜. You gotta check out much more of her stuff even just on ur own. It's very worth ur time.
In France, many discovered this great lady thanks to the very beautiful 1987 tribute song "Ella elle l'a" which means she has it. It is sung by France Gall and written by her husband Michel Berger, Two legends in France who had great admiration for Ella Fitzgerald. I hope that during your musical journey you will discover these great artists. They deserve it.✋
This is a song by the composer George Gershwin from the Opera Porgy and Bess.
Ella is amazing singing by herself & as well I love her singing with Louie Armstrong🎺 This production is soo good 💎💎💎💝
I was a rock n' roll teen in 1968- Ella Fitzgerald being the exception. Wonderful!
My favorite singer!! She was MARVELOUS!!!
Adogg, Ella was universally regarded as a musical Goddess. For a rough measure of her accomplishments, I just checked Amazon. A search of "Ella Fitzgzerald" returned over 2000 results over 145 pages. She sang everything and recorded everything. All of the other greats wanted to sing with her: Sinatra, Tony Bennett, all the Big Bands like Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong. You have heard her sing once and from now on, you will recognize that voice. She known as a genius at "scattin" . If you go down this rabbit hole, it will be a deep one.
She's my favorite singer of all time. She is the boss.
The Queen of Jazz singing and scatting! Bow to the Queen!!!
Ms Ella was just a class act with an incredible voice. One of a kind.
I was raised with her songs and I still get goosebumps when she sings!
Ella sang many duets with Frank Sinatra. He loved her. Sinatra once said the only singer who made him nervous to sing with was Ella Fitzgerald because she was soooo good. She was perfection. She was also known for scatting . You should listen to her singing the Lady is a Tramp with Sinatra. Thanks for your reaction to this great lady.
One of the last old time Blues/Jazz singers. I remember watching her as a kid. I wasn't into her style of music, but I always loved her voice.
The greatest female singer of them all. Check out her and Sinatra doing Lady is a Tramp.
Ella was magnificent. A real thank you to my mother for introducing me to these great artists. I miss her.
Ella Fitzgerald is my dad's favorite female singer. I was raised listening to her & she's one of my favorites as well.
In the early 70’s, we went to visit my great grandmother near East St. Louis. When we got near, we saw that every billboard and every sign in sight had been painted over with the words Welcome Ella Fitzgerald. I was in awe and have been ever since.
I have to laugh when I hear you say you never heard of her, but of course, you're very young. However, I'm thrilled that you are discovering the great talents and music from years ago (love your reactions), that we older folks grew up with, and were treated to regularly on TV or radio or records. In 1968, Ella would have been 51, and had been singing since the 1930's. Keep on listening Mr. Adogg!
Ella Fitzgerald, best Jazz singer of all time , the Queen
I'll bet you'd love hearing Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong together on their three albums, Ella and Louis(1956), Ella and Louis Again (1957), and Porgy and Bess (1959). I've loved hearing them all my life! ✨✌ This song is from George Gershwin's "Porgy and Bess"
I would gladly pay to hear her sing the phone book. She was amazing, I guarantee you will love her work.
The greatest voice God ever blessed anyone with. Her near 60-year career is filled with so much , one could never possibly tire of hearing her vocal perfection.
Any and I mean ANY song she sings is fantastic!! Somertime was covered by many artists. First heard in 1935 it became even more well known from the play Porgy & Bess. If you haven't watched the movie try to find it. It was so far before it's time.
Gershwin wasthe composer for Porgy and Bess. Fantastic composer for fantastic artists.
1:45 So much pure quality to be found in just one tone. Jazz musicianship hits different.
She also could sing (& scat) really , really fast 💨
Early in her career, she fronted Chick Webb’s big band, where she sang mostly dance tunes & “novelty “ songs 🎶
She’s probably best known for her songbook albums, where she covered popular songs from some of the greatest American composers ( The Gershwins, Rodgers and Hart, Duke Ellington , Cole Porter, Irving Berlin) recording dozens of classic songs ❤️
Where have you been? Never hear of Miss Ella Fitzgerald? Yes, WOW!
Great reaction and great song written by George Gershwin for the play called Porgy and Bess. It's been covered by many artists, including Janis Joplin. Ella is a legend! There's a you tube video with Ella Fitzgerald singing with Karen Carpenter. You should check it out. It's fantastic.
My grandpa listened to her. I would come walking in my grandparents house on a Spring day & my grandpop would be blasting her albums. I loved his music (of his times) way better than my parents music
Such a legend. And that voice....wow!
Ella Fitzgerald performed alongside Duke Ellington and had MANY many hits! My late parents swing-danced jitterbug/lindy-hop to them all the time. Two of my favorites are "E & D Blues" (Ella and Duke) as well as "A-Tisket A-Tasket" ... they're both much more upbeat than Summertime and I think you'll like them because they showcase Ella's jazz voice improv as well as Duke Ellington's big band....check 'em out Brah!!!
This really brought back great memories. My grandfather used to play Ella Fitzgerald's records on his record player and sit in his chair with his feet up and his eyes closed. The only thing I remember him saying is "Now THIS is a real singer." And if anybody made a sound while he was listening to his Ella, he shushed us. "Shhhhh... be quiet. Listen to her voice."
She could break glass with her voice
I am shocked that you haven't heard of her before. She had a voice that could literally break glass. Wonderful voice. Fun duets especially with Louis Armstrong.
You need to hear Etta James “At Last” if you haven’t already. It’s magnificent ❤
I saw her live at the 1994 Mt. Hood Jazz Festival...she'd lost a leg from diabetes, but her voice was still great--Sitting on a stool, her performance was awesome and we gave her a standing O. Her death the next year bummed me out so much!
I was raised on Ella.. thank heavens for my parents 👍🏻💪🏻❤️❤️
There has never been a greater jazz singer than Ella Fitzgerald. She makes it all look so easy--the mark of a true artist. You can't go wrong with Ella. Listen to her interpretations of "Cry Me a River" and "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered."
It's a cover of the song written for the musical "Porgy & Bess...superb voice from Ella
Summertime is part of the American Songbook tradition.We hang on her voice because it’s so good but know this you have to look up her other performances. She used her voice like a Jazz instrument and no one played it like her. She was a Goddess in our home in the 60s but she goes back further than that ☮️
Absolutely beautiful!!
I had a chance to see her twice. I am so happy I was able to see her live. She had a beautiful instrument and was an extremely talented jazz vocalist.
Born in 1917. She would have been 51 in this video, 1968. Singing so awesome. Great.
Finally! Someone is reacting to Ella! She plays her voice like an instrument. Her pitch is absolutely perfect. Try some faster tempo songs. She's very jazzy and innovative with her variations of the main melody.
The one and only miss Ella Fitzgerald
She is an icon! Keep on reacting to her huge library of songs ~ ~ ~ The Lady is a Tramp, Mack the Knife, any song with Louie Armstrong.
Omnoway!!!!!
It amazes me when someone in the younger generation has never heard of someone of Ella’s stature. It’s a mystery that doesn’t seem real in this day and age of what has been captured and stored, but it’s real. There was much of our past that was lost in a fire a few decades ago, but there is much more we are unaware of that is available and preserved from the 1920s into the modern era. I would hope that by now it would be duplicated and further preserved for generations to come. I can still hear the first spoken words on video…”Wait a minute. Wait a minute. You ain’t heard nothing yet.” And Al Jolson started whistling and singing to introduce movies that spoke words to us for the first time.
I feel we have failed you as a society if you have never heard of Ella before now. A true American original. An epic talent. I had the privilege of seeing her in concert as a little girl with Count Basie and his orchestra and I will never forget it. My mom became a singer because of Ella. Her music has always been part of my life. She was not a songwriter, so she always sang other people’s compositions, but her interpretations are always among the best. Definitely check out her live duets with Frank Sinatra-they are on RUclips and they SWING hard!
Ella is an iconic legend.
It’s from the musical Porgy and Bess. Ellla’s career goes back to the 1940’s and she is primarily a Jazz Singer!
Ella was one of the greatest jazz singers ever!
Love to hear Ella's sing
God bless her. There will never be another ELLA !!! Our Loss.
OMG you can spend weeks on Miss Ella. She is amazing!
The greatest female popular singer of the 20th Century ........
Thanks for sharing your reaction! That voice takes me to church every single time!!!
Miss Ella has one of my all time favorite female voices. She had allot of upbeat/fast songs but I think slow extended songs really show of her voice control and technique. This song is is originally from the opera "Porgy and Bess".
Ella has one of the most beautiful female voices ever. Her pipes are like butter.
