The man was smooth. NBC couldn't get sponsors for his show and had to cancel even though he had top notch guest. Sponsors were afraid to attach their brand to this brilliant man. Smh
It's amazing that he sort of fell into a singing career. He considered himself more of a pianist than a singer--at least at the beginning of his career.
"Best of" is still on the Decades channel, by the way. I think I can get it on HULU, but don't know if it's worth it. Brenda trivia time! "Too Young" could be the first song she sang at her first talent contest. She thinks she sang it and "Slow Poke", but is not 100% sure. "Too Young" is "too short" here.
@@MostlyBrenda Yes, this was a very brief version of "Too Young". I don't get Decades TV in Canada, but I've looked at their schedule and their "Best of" package is the same one that was re-run on Cool TV here in Canada several years ago. Each package is pretty much the same, although Sofa usually added a few new episodes, it seems, each time it was shown on a different TV channel. There are over 100 edited episodes in the package. It's worth watching if you haven't seen it before. Several of the clips are being posted here on the RUclips channel, but so far, there's also a lot of different footage between the two as well. If you are thinking of getting it to see Brenda Lee however, be aware that the only video they showed of her in any "Best of" TV package was her performance of "Time And Time Again" from a colour episode (I think that was the name of the song). I have a feeling we are going to get better songs and videos on here of Brenda. I look forward to seeing what they post each day!
@@TomElvisSmith She only made 4 TESS appearances and I've seen all but one song. However, I do like seeing the upgraded copies. I am surprised that a streaming service like Hulu is not available in Ca.
@@TomElvisSmith I thought Canadian copyrights were not as long as US, but it could be licensing of local stations. Hulu offers all the local OTA (on the air) stations, so there may be some rules about that.
Meu Deus! Obrigado por nos presentear com o Nat! Enquanto ele esteve por aqui, tudo era muito mais bonito! E que bom termos esses registros à disposição. Não sou da época dele, mas agradeço por esses vídeos maravilhosos❤
Love his voice and repertoire. Although, sometimes I can't find listening some of his songs because I get too emotional, reminds me of my parents and better days. I love Nat King Cole. ❤
Frank S. is nothing in front of this Legend! Long live the King of old good music through his music and voice!
It took me ONLY a few seconds to figure out who Frank S. is, just watching on MeTV... Pearl Bailey... Come on, get a cold glass of beer... steak...
Timeless music by Nat King Cole! He was such a major artist for Capitol Records! His music remains popular into the 21st century!
First heard NKC when I was a child in the 60s. My parents had an album or two. What a wonderfully velvet voice. Classic.
He was such an elegant singer.

"Madison Avenue was afraid of the dark" - Nat King Cole, after his show went off the air
Nat had a great voice

I never knew that! Only today I found these videos of him playing the piano. Thank you for sharing!
All great songs and big hits for Mr. Cole; this will be a good one! I remember it from your half-hour Best of Sullivan TV shows.

This incredible artist's voice was needlessly taken from the world from smoking cigarettes. A lesson learned from Nat is do not smoke!
Beautiful! ❤️.
GREAT SONG !!!!!
What an incredibly talented artist!!! Gone too soon!!
❤
The original and the true King.
Wonderful! Great!💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝

💥🤴🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶❤🙋♀️
Best male vocalist bar no one.
Natalie Cole has done a fantastic job of redoing her father's music just love that cd
SO THE ED SULLIVAN SHOW WAS THE ORIGINAL MTV THEN?
Far superior than MTV and more open to several genres of music.
1st request: come together by the muppets
2nd request: the full version of music hath charms by the muppets
So amazing. Can this be enhanced and remastered?
The real King.
Nonsense darling! For smoking is what gives my voice character!
The thumbnail on this video was kind of horrifying
NAT ETERNO! MARAVILHOSO ❤
These are all wonderful songs but I wish he’d just have picked one and done the whole thing. Medleys are weird.
2:07 BAHAY NAMIN...MALIIT LAMANG....oops haha
