There is something about life that has shifted, beyond fashions and styles. Something is gone that used to be there. These type of songs make me feel it very sharply. I am sad for my Children's generation. The 20 somethings. They are having such a hard time of it. They cant meet anyone. Not like we used to meet and trust people.
That last long note with that perfect vibrato all the way is something you'll never hear again in such beautiful way by other singers... He was so much talented ❤🙏🙏🙏
Dean Martin comes from an era when there were what was known as 'ORIGINAL SINGERS'. From the first note one knows instantly who is singing. I love this kind of music and never get tired of hearing it. Dean was truly 'one of a kind'. RIP❤❤❤
Can I just say it ?? I'm in tears. I so, so remember watching this man do this song & while sitting in my Dad's rocker recliner, I was again, in tears. The amazing thing to me : My Dad--a man who almost never did, was also in tears. Dean could do that to me, almost anytime he really decided to sing a sad love song. he did it like no one else I've ever heard. Where oh where, have the years gone ??? Miss you Dad. Wolfsky9, 68 y/o
My Dad loved dean Martin's show as well. He & I would sit & watch & laugh till we had tears running down our face. I miss my Dad & I miss Dean Martin. May they both RIP!!
Dean Martin and Elvis were two of my all time favourite singers; they were both very good looking. It is sad that the world is deprived of their talents. Elvis good looks and voice will never be duplicated and so is Dean. I have a whole bunch of records of both singers and will forever cherish them. May you guys continue to entertain the heavens with your voices.
Take a close look at his expressions! Every wrinkle of his face, speaks! Oh my God, he was the best! Some people say "none is irreplaceable".. Men like him are unfortunately IRREPLACEABLE! But he will live FOREVER in our memories! Love you, Dean...Keep singing wherever you are..
I hear my kids tell to watch all these sings shows like, The Voice, America Got Talent, Britian Got Talent, etc. Then you Watch and Listen to this man, and realize who really has Talent. End of Story!
Considering the Era, smoking was the thing to do and most crooner's like Sinatra, Bennett, etc did it. Then Drugs became the"In thing", as both Prince and Michael Jackson can attest to.
Peter Racippo smoking wasn't the 'in thing'. It was just what people did. You can't liken it to drug use nowadays. Both my parents were heavy smokers, along with everyone else. Those were the mistakes of the 60s and 70s like lead paint and no seat belts.
As the man once said : " Folks you can wait around & hope, but you'll not hear the likes of this, again. " ----------------So sad, & so true. -------------------------------WolfSky9, 72 y/o
Everyone has a time, and I'm so glad to have lived in a time that such music was the norm. The next generation are welcome to what they consider the norm, as I have no interest and why would I, as I won't be around forever. I do believe technology vwill at some stage be able to recreate all these wonderful artists live and that I would like to see. Anyways as I say, we all have our time, so enjoy the moment and don't worry about the future as it's not ours to decide what it should be. Thanks to RUclips for enabling us all to re experience times in our life through the medium of music.
He's such a great perfumer, and one of very few who could take a song and make it there own. He's like Elvis, they could sing anything and get away with it. What a master!
One of the finest vocalists in show business history. His tone here is rich and tender, soft and strong. A master of the notes, Dino was literally "one of the very best".
Dean always left a smile on my face and in my heart anytime he sang, no matter what it was, Such warm, fond memories of him, while I was growing up, God bless you Dean.
You deserve all the praise and applause forever, dear Dean Martin. I am always captivated by your warm baritone voice. This beautiful song would have also sounded great in Elvis Presley's voice. Both Dean and Elvis were baritones.
Dean Martin is my childhood, growing up in a home where his music was played all the time. So fond memories, and yes he is a true legend as someone else commented up on
By the Time I Get to Phoenix has always been one of my favorite songs, and in my opinion the best Dean Martin ever recorded. It is HIS song, no one could sing it as well as he does, not even Frank Sinatra whom I like very much too....Thanks for posting this great moment of talent, artistry and sheer pleasure....An admirer from Switzerland.
In the years he did The Dean Martin Show, it's safe to say there were only a handful of times --like this --when Dean sang from his heart, & it was always a song about losing love. Absolutely no one --I mean, no one --ever did this like Dean did, & it never fails to hit me right in my heart of hearts. Miss you Mr. Dean Martin. Wolfsky9
I actually remember this. His show was always so much fun. And here was this sad song ,right in the middle of the laughs. And even as a kid, I was moved.
Magic the best ever all of them. But they all loved ,and adored one man even more . The great sachmo, the great Mr Armstrong . He played with them all , and you never forget a show any one of them made with the great man.
Mr. Martin, you were just magnificent on this one, & I so remember watching this with my Dad. One of the very few times you really sang from the heart. ---I was in tears. -----------Wolfsky9, 70 y/o
Some called him lazy with his vocal...but when you hear him lay this tune down...with his phrasing...his style...he makes you believe the song. That's an artist.
A man's song, sung by a man's man--as only he could do it. You were the best, Mr. Dean Martin --& I'm in tears, every time I see this video, because I so remember watching this on your show. One of a handful of times you really sang from the heart. Wolfsky9
at the age of 6 this olive oil smooth charm and voice and good looks would make me cry tears of joy even till this day growing up in an Italian family he was always heard never ever gets old! miss him
I heard from people's comments that his daughter's book was very moving. I just can't get enough of his songs. I don't care about the variety show just want to see and hear him sing and laugh. He does me heart good.
***** I read both books. It seems the kids came to him everytime they needed money. I wonder if they even noticed when he was getting ill he couldn't hold his notes as well and was short of breath. When he owed all that money to the IRS. He wanted to retire and had to keep on working due to his bills. Through all his problems he still kept up a good front and was a great intertainer. When Geraldo had Deanna on his show and they were talking to Dean you can tell he wasn't well. I just hope he wasn't alone when he died because he was the greatest. Always the great intertainer.. Why those paparazzi couldn't leave him alone in that restuarant they prob tried to tell him they were there from the look on his face and he probably said I don't give a crap lets go. He was so frail and sick and they took advantage. I hope someday those money rags get their own back.
Terry LoMeli I read that book his son Ricci I think wrote no I don't have it I checked it out of the Houston library...I love Dean always have since I heard him on the radio in July '93 at age 23 two months before I turned 24 ......when I heard he died on Christmas Day 1995 that was heartbreaking I laid on the bed and cried for 2 1/2 hours.. how I heard it I was watching the NBA on NBC and they said it at halftime...when I heard him on the radio I didn't know what he looked like just heard the voice but it was good I had to get me a tape of him didn't have CDs yet when I went to the mall and picked the tape up of him and looked at the picture I said wow what a man!!!!!!..I don't know if you're a man or a woman since Terry is a name for both but Dean was handsome sexy dreamy hot suave and dapper eh?????!!!!!!!!!
Terry LoMeli you are confusing dean martin with Sammy davis jr. who was the one that owed the IRS a lot of money and was broke when he died. when dean died he was worth over 200 million dollars. dean martin didn't have any financial issues. dean had retired but did the last tour because frank asked him to. dean left the tour because he was still heartbroken over his son's death. dean and frank fell out over dean's leaving.
even elvis said "i will tell you who is cool ....dean martin " they were friends and respected each others talent praise to the songwriter who wrote this lovely ballad [jimmy webb???].......so smooth , and so uniquely dean martin . where are there singers like this today ??? cherish what we had ....there will never be another like the great dean martin.
Best version ever. Stirs something deeply sentimental-- even beyond a breakup
Dean always made it look so effortless. And for him, it was.
There is something about life that has shifted, beyond fashions and styles. Something is gone that used to be there. These type of songs make me feel it very sharply. I am sad for my Children's generation. The 20 somethings. They are having such a hard time of it. They cant meet anyone. Not like we used to meet and trust people.
I’ve feel it as well. When you hear these songs its proof that shift has taken place and its beyond negative. 😢
That last long note with that perfect vibrato all the way is something you'll never hear again in such beautiful way by other singers... He was so much talented ❤🙏🙏🙏
Dean was so captivating when singing. This handsome man had a voice like no other .
So true my friend
Nice observation
Such a wonderful entertainer. Been a lifetime fan and now, aged 88 in 2024, still am.
You'll see 100.
The shame is that they don't have singers like him today or music like this. I'm glad I can listen to this music every day.
Engelbert Humperdinck is now 87 years old and still performing.Definitely the last of that era sadly
Aint nobody like Dean. There will never be another Dean.
You're so right.
never
All the crap today doesn't compare to the legends of the past... Dean Martin pure legend
Dean Martin comes from an era when there were what was known as 'ORIGINAL SINGERS'. From the first note one knows instantly who is singing. I love this kind of music and never get tired of hearing it. Dean was truly 'one of a kind'. RIP❤❤❤
The man was a legend even in his lifetime. He is one of the people you never forget. Beautiful and timeless.
Totally agree with you
Definitely.
Beautiful, man ! ♥️
Love his voice ❤
Dean Martin was truly one of the greatest vocalists of our time just pure raw talent.
Can I just say it ?? I'm in tears. I so, so remember watching this man do this song & while sitting in my Dad's rocker recliner, I was again, in tears. The amazing thing to me : My Dad--a man who almost never did, was also in tears.

Nice story, just keep remembering the good times.
My Dad loved dean Martin's show as well. He & I would sit & watch & laugh till we had tears running down our face. I miss my Dad & I miss Dean Martin. May they both RIP!!
Yes its true when you losesomone dear
Love this song, brings memories and tears ❤
What a lovely comment.
The fact that he can pull this off while in a semi reclining position says everything about this marvelous talent.
Dean Martin and Elvis were two of my all time favourite singers; they were both very good looking. It is sad that the world is deprived of their talents. Elvis good looks and voice will never be duplicated and so is Dean. I have a whole bunch of records of both singers and will forever cherish them. May you guys continue to entertain the heavens with your voices.
Right on!!!!!
Take a close look at his expressions! Every wrinkle of his face, speaks! Oh my God, he was the best!
Some people say "none is irreplaceable"..
Men like him are unfortunately IRREPLACEABLE!
But he will live FOREVER in our memories!
Love you, Dean...Keep singing wherever you are..
Keep singing in the sky forevet
Yes its true they like to be like hin bht ther's only one DeanMartin
I hear my kids tell to watch all these sings shows like, The Voice, America Got Talent, Britian Got Talent, etc.
Then you Watch and Listen to this man, and realize who really has Talent.
End of Story!
Peter Racippo Amen to that. This guy was the epitome of cool:-)
He smoked too much though ultimately dying from lung cancer. Too bad.
Considering the Era, smoking was the thing to do and most crooner's like Sinatra, Bennett, etc did it. Then Drugs became the"In thing", as both Prince and Michael Jackson can attest to.
Peter Racippo he still lived to 78 . And wow what a life he lived . Who didn't love him???
Peter Racippo smoking wasn't the 'in thing'. It was just what people did. You can't liken it to drug use nowadays. Both my parents were heavy smokers, along with everyone else. Those were the mistakes of the 60s and 70s like lead paint and no seat belts.
Nobody else touches the emotions like Mr Martin. He remains the penultimate.
RIP Dino...your songs remain and continue to shine.
I like that Dean sings this sitting down. What a voice. What a gift.
There will never be another
Still love it..Nobody like Dean
The more you hear it, the more it gets to you. Wonderful song!
Man you said it. It's like it stirs up something timeless
Dean Martin is an absolute timeless legend
I grew up with Dean Martin's television series...I have his classics collection, he's always been my favourite singer!
I have the same collection, I grew up with him too & he's always been my favourite singer
As the man once said : " Folks you can wait around & hope, but you'll not hear the likes of this, again. " ----------------So sad, & so true. -------------------------------WolfSky9, 72 y/o
Loved this man with this impeccable smooth voice, so cool and so handsome, miss him.x.
Only for Dean Martin would I have listened to another sing this song, and he was so effortlessly great at it. Love and miss you Dean!
Everyone has a time, and I'm so glad to have lived in a time that such music was the norm.

This man was a real talent. There was literally nothing he couldn't sing, and sing perfectly.
He's such a great perfumer, and one of very few who could take a song and make it there own. He's like Elvis, they could sing anything and get away with it. What a master!
What a simple and beautiful sad song! Makes me cry every time.
One of the finest vocalists in show business history. His tone here is rich and tender, soft and strong. A master of the notes, Dino was literally "one of the very best".
And hilariously funny to boot! I laughed knowing he was going to make me laugh and I couldn't stop it!
Dean always left a smile on my face and in my heart anytime he sang, no matter what it was, Such warm, fond memories of him, while I was growing up, God bless you Dean.
Dean Martin watching his show..him sliding down the pole surrounded by beautiful women...just a natural talent..one of the greats..RIP Dean
Love this ..Thanks Dean..
For some reason this song makes me cry. Dean's version was very touching. Great song, but I'm crying, lol!
Yes man it stirs the deepest sentiments of love's tragedies...done by a man who will never be replaced
So deeply emotional singing never heard from anyone....he the great singer Dean Martin !!!
My favorite version of this song
Mr. Dean Martin, you made this song all yours. Ohhh do I miss you. Wolfsky9
Talk about relaxed, some of todays performers could learn something from this. Beautiful.
What a beautiful voice. So smooth. Love Dean.
All time favorite version of this song. Still gets me the chills, 10 years after my first comment 💕
the last of the great 50-60's crooners.The most talented of the RatPack!
You deserve all the praise and applause forever, dear Dean Martin. I am always captivated by your warm baritone voice.
This beautiful song would have also sounded great in Elvis Presley's voice. Both Dean and Elvis were baritones.
Black folks, this is soulful. OG.
Dean Martin is my childhood, growing up in a home where his music was played all the time. So fond memories, and yes he is a true legend as someone else commented up on
Just an amazing voice
King of Cool
Dean so cool.
By the Time I Get to Phoenix has always been one of my favorite songs, and in my opinion the best Dean Martin ever recorded. It is HIS song, no one could sing it as well as he does, not even Frank Sinatra whom I like very much too....Thanks for posting this great moment of talent, artistry and sheer pleasure....An admirer from Switzerland.
actually love it to pieces,and yeah miss this charming scoundrel.
Such a smooth and easy talent, still my favorite version of this song
A very sad day when we lost this man
so beautiful and so sad
I love Dino! This is the only song that just hits home like nobody's business. He sang it as it should have been sang.
This still gets to me every time I watch . RIP, Dean.
this is a cool song and dean is cool singer i love it RIP dean
wow........ Class with a capital "C". and such elegance and style.
The very best singer of all time
The silky voice, so calm and cool - man Dean could really sing a song in such a laid back fashion, Chill!
There will never be another like him, He did this and many other songs justice, Sad they are disappearing, fantastic song love it
In the years he did The Dean Martin Show, it's safe to say there were only a handful of times --like this --when Dean sang from his heart, & it was always a song about losing love. Absolutely no one --I mean, no one --ever did this like Dean did, & it never fails to hit me right in my heart of hearts. Miss you Mr. Dean Martin. Wolfsky9
A true definition of a "crooner"....will miss you and your voice!
Wow...this may be my favorite performance of his...boy, he really feels it.
I actually remember this.
His show was always so much fun. And here was this sad song ,right in the middle of the laughs. And even as a kid, I was moved.
10/14/10 ... Is there a song that Dean could not sing? The best!
I love this song for many years. Dean Martin will always be a wonderful singer.
The best version by far .. coolest guy ..
What a voice and personality.
NO ONE better singing this song to make you, sit, relax and just listen to the voice.
Dean, Sammy, Frank and Bing were the ultimate crooner`s. Each song they sang told a story.
milestoneman Toss in Nat 'King' Cole, Mel Torme, and Matt Monro
Magic the best ever all of them. But they all loved ,and adored one man even more . The great sachmo, the great Mr Armstrong . He played with them all , and you never forget a show any one of them made with the great man.
HEARTBREAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL. NOONE ELSE CAN MAKE ME HURT SO GOOD....

Mr. Martin, you were just magnificent on this one, & I so remember watching this with my Dad. One of the very few times you really sang from the heart. ---I was in tears. -----------Wolfsky9, 70 y/o

I just love his music and this video is one of my favourites. Rick
so deeply emotional singing that never heard... and. end up with tears...

+Peter Gapsis
I agree with you.
If this guy was any cooler, he'd be pure ice!!!
So true, he was the coolest.
bigladian ..lol no kidding
So true, so true.
I've always wanted a man with a deep voice
Some called him lazy with his vocal...but when you hear him lay this tune down...with his phrasing...his style...he makes you believe the song. That's an artist.
This man is amazing.I love him.
Wow I actually have tears in my eyes!
That song is heartbreaking
Dean sings it so beautifully ...

Makes me recall better days and a better time !!

A man's song, sung by a man's man--as only he could do it. You were the best, Mr. Dean Martin --& I'm in tears, every time I see this video, because I so remember watching this on your show. One of a handful of times you really sang from the heart. Wolfsky9
