I remember sitting with my parents the night he sang that. Both of them had tears in their eyes. And I, as a teen learned for the first time. How much the word Love really meant. In fact. I learned the words, and still remember them today...sixty years later. Ed Ames was a great singer.
I can relate to this too, listening with my parents, my Dad would sing it around the house along with plenty of his other favorites! Interesting that Ed Ames died aged 95, so feeling love really helps you live longer❤
This was my parents’ song. They were married 67 years. Dad passed away in 2017 at age 93 and we lost Mom last year (2023), also at age 93. I’m in my late 60s and I will miss my folks until the day I draw my last breath. I get tears in my eyes every time I hear Ed Ames sing this beautiful song, especially the line: “In only a moment we both will be old, we won’t even notice the world turning cold, and so in this moment with sunlight above, my cup runneth over with love.” Not only does it make me think of my folks, it reminds me of how quickly the time has flown by for my husband and I, how quickly our boys grew into men. It reminds me to appreciate each day and to try not to get bogged down by the harshness of the world. To be thoughtful and kind, especially to one another. ❤️
Guess you can take solace in knowing that they both lived to 93. I did not know about the Ames brothers but I do remember my mother singing Toola Loora Lula an Irish lullaby. Made famous by the Ames brothers. God bless.
@@smilinmoo on a lighter note. I remember he was on Johnny Carson while he was on the TV show playing a Native American. He brought a Tomahawk. There was a poster of a man a few feet away & Ed was supposed to fling the Tomahawk to hit him dead in the heart. It hit the poster right between the crotch area & there it was. To which Johnny said to Ed “ I didn’t know you were a Jewish Rabbi”.
@@johnmuliyil8170 I remember that! I don’t know whether I remember it from the original airing or from a Johnny Carson special that showed a clip, but I do remember it was hilarious!
One year ago today, the world lost an excellent talent. Ed Ames died of Alzheimers Disease at the age of 95 years old. Ed Ames July 9,1927-May 21,2023. Rest in peace. We love and miss you so very much.
Rest in Peace Ed Ames July 9, 1927 - May 21, 2023, Thanks for the excellent body of work you left behind with your brothers, on television and on Broadway. 😢
24 years ago today a man I adored died suddenly. I have mourned him steadily... this morning I awoke to this song in my head. Have not heard it since childhood, yet it was playing in my mind as I awoke. This was his way and this is my way to say... yeah, I feel you too. Miss you EDB.
This song is lovely and Ed Ames sings it magnificently. The orchestral accompaniment is what makes this performance a masterpiece. This was television when I was young. I miss it.
This song was my maternal Grandma and Grandpa’s wedding song back in 1967. It was sung at my grandma’s funeral a few weeks ago by a guy who sounded a lot like Josh Groban. Cannot stop crying now or feeling sad with this song. RIP Grammy, I LOVE you so much to the moon and back!
One of the greatest singers. Ever. I rate him almost with Bing Crosby for all-purpose singer. There's Nat, Perry, Frank, Dean, Dick Haymes, Gordon Macrae, Eddie Fisher, Vic Damone....and THEN above them, to me, there's the inimitable Ed Ames. A joy to behold!
The man owns this song just as Judy Garland owns "over the rainbow"! There have been many excellent singers who have sung this brilliantly! However, after you hear him sing this song, they pale in comparison. 🤔🤗👍
RIP Ed, As a kid I watched Daniel Boone & had a huge crush on Mingo. Years later I fell in love with Ed Ames Golden baritone voice. I will always regret not seeing Ed Ames perform at the McCallum theater. You will be dearly missed but never forgotten. Thank you for the years of entertainment you've blessed us with Mr. Ames.
I believe I will never have a wife and will die alone, but this song can be interpreted as a different type of love. Gods love. No matter my faults, his love makes my cup runneth over. No matter my mistakes, he is there.
He had a long life. He and his brothers were wonderful singers. I've been listening to this, as well as Try to Remember for the last couple of years on my phone while working out at the gym. I was 12 years old when this song was a hit in 1967. RIP Mr Ames. And I still watch reruns of Daniel Boone.
I love Ed Ames' interpret ion of one of my favorite Jones and Schmidt songs. His voice is smooth, easy, resonant. His sincerity is unassailable and his understanding is superb.
Being a parent is tough... tough on every aspect of what you thought was all the parts that make up you. This song and this singer invoke vivid memories of watching over the children as they slept. Despite the tough day that day their nightime rooms would fill with warmth, grace and love in abundance... "flowing over"; not from any part of me but from them and the wonderful wonder they imparted every hour of every day... awake or asleep. To this day this song fosters such blessed joy.
Hearing this for the first time 2023 at 68 years old I had never heard of him being we never had a television until I was 12 years old and not even a radio we were 9 and my mom raised us alone and it was a hard life but she did it she passed away at 90 years old 2021 missing her every day
RIP Ed Ames ! I forgot your song, but reading about your crossing over, i had to listen to your song, and in my mind i suddenly experienced those early 60s when i was about 11 or 12. After many many years you opened up some good memories, and my troubled mind needed this ! Thank you Sir !
What a great performance by the master Ed Ames. The perfect song with the perfect singers = a song that endures the generations. He delivers with such feeling. Love this song!
Geoff Joffy I had a crush on Ed Ames since I was a kid watching him on Daniel Boone I loved Mingo then I heard him sing & OMG what a voice. If you haven't already, you need to listen to some of his other songs. Every one is a treasure. I love the way he sings Who Will Answer but he never disappoints.
@@geoffjoffy Yeah I know & he still looks good for his age. I live in Southern California in the desert & until Covid hit he would perform at the McCallum theater. If he does perform there again I will go see him.
Love this song, and have loved it since I was 13. Interesting, this Ed Sullivan version was at a significant tempo increase when compared to the original record, on RCA. The last verse is so poignant.
This is a GREAT upload! One of the most beautiful love songs ever written, and Ed Ames had an incredible voice. Thank you so much for this one! He also sang "When the Snow is on the Roses" on this show, which would be another nice one to upload.
Even after all of these years, this is still one of the best love songs ever written and recorded. Who is watching in 2024?
Absolutely love Ed Ames version of this song. Great 👍
Moi aussi ! je ne m'en lasse pas👍
I am watching and I'm 74 years old although dead I still love Ed Ames ❤️
I’m watching this now. I remember my parents listening to this. I can actually sing this pretty close to how Mr. Ed Ames does it!
I remember sitting with my parents the night he sang that. Both of them had tears in their eyes. And I, as a teen learned for the first time. How much the word Love really meant. In fact. I learned the words, and still remember them today...sixty years later. Ed Ames was a great singer.
I remember this song playing in the background as I was growing up... my parents liked this song as well
That's a beautiful memory.

I get tears in my eyes just reading your post. I too am 67 and lost both parents. This music brings back great feelings.
Such a wonderful voice, RIP Ed, 5/21/2023. Your talent will be missed.
Google Ed's name and you'll see that he died on May 21,2023. It was made public on May 26.
Oh yeah. He died of Alzheimers Disease.
@@Cynthia-ht8ld So Very Very Sad, this disease is the Long Goodbye. Thanks for many great memories Sir.
I get teary-eyed when I think he's really gone😢
So sorry to hear about Ed's passing! What a beautiful song and excellent singer.
No one can sing like him. RIP you'll be missed.
From Brazil RIP.

He will be missed.
What a fabulous singer Ed Ames was. His music will live on ❤ he left such a legacy.
RIP and God bless him.
The gold standard of this song's performance!
Love, love, love this gentleman singer! 🧡
Ed passed away recently, May 21st 2023 R.I.P. Ed 95 years old. Beautiful voice.♥
Ed's recording of MY CUP RUNNETH OVER is a classic.
What heaven sounds like. I love it so much
Tremendous breath control. It's not easy to hold those notes. You have to be in good shape and have great singing technique.
Yes indeed. I was also marvelling at his breadth control & staying in tune.
The only other persons with that breadth control are Pavarotti & Andrea Bocelli

RIP Ed. One of the GREAT singers, and along with Johnny Carson star of the funniest clip in the history of television.
One of the great Ames Brothers.
Happy Heavenly birthday, Ed Ames. Born July 9,1927-May 21, 21,2023. We love and miss you so much.
This song is lovely and Ed Ames sings it magnificently. The orchestral accompaniment is what makes this performance a masterpiece. This was television when I was young. I miss it.
I was a kid back in the 60's and I'm so glad that I got to experience this type of great music..... 💕💕💕
Me too. Great music then.
Thank you for your service!

One of my favorite songs for over half of a century.
Damn, just seeing that Ed is gone. One of my favorite singers. He had a great run.

These are all truly great singers and ed has a place at that table 🙂
Rest in Peace Ed. A long and productive life
The man owns this song just as Judy Garland owns "over the rainbow"! There have been many excellent singers who have sung this brilliantly! However, after you hear him sing this song, they pale in comparison. 🤔🤗👍
I can listen to that song the whole day and never feel tired of his interpretation. What a voice. RIP
Rest in peace dear sweet talented man!

Tremendous talent. His singing is as smooth as butter.
RIP . Still remember this beautiful tune all these years later.
They don't make classic singers like Ed Ames anymore. What power and deep feeling.. He was also a wonderful actor with a thrilling reality.
RIP, Ed..
The music industry could take a lesson from him..
Nope they sure don't, and you do not even hear music such as this on the radio anymore.
@@toyman81 Many thanks for your note. Indeed, they don't make music like they use to..
Rest in Peace, and a sincere thank you, for your contributions, in making the world a better place! 💖
So saddened to hear that we lost Ed. 😦😢 He was a wonderful singer and a true absolute gentleman.
R.I.P. Mr Ames and thank you for all the wonderful loves songs you gave us.He was truly one of the greatest voices ever recorded!
I had forgotten about this song...great song and beautfiul performance...RIP Ed.
I believe I will never have a wife and will die alone, but this song can be interpreted as a different type of love. Gods love. No matter my faults, his love makes my cup runneth over. No matter my mistakes, he is there.
It is a beautiful song! I agree that it can be interpreted in many ways!
Same here, my friend. Amen and Praise God for his perfect love!
Sometimes an old song can summon up memories we thought were gone forever.. taking us back to a time when life was simple and easy.
He had a long life. He and his brothers were wonderful singers. I've been listening to this, as well as Try to Remember for the last couple of years on my phone while working out at the gym. I was 12 years old when this song was a hit in 1967. RIP Mr Ames. And I still watch reruns of Daniel Boone.
It took this mans passing for me to discover this song. Lovely. RIP Mr. Ames.
I have heard various artists perform this, but nobody does it like Mr. Ed Ames - simply the best rendition of a beautiful song!
I love Ed Ames' interpret ion of one of my favorite Jones and Schmidt songs. His voice is smooth, easy, resonant. His sincerity is unassailable and his understanding is superb.
Completely agree!
I could not have said it better!!
@@joshuaparham88 Ed Ames was one of our greatest singers ever!Such feeling and emotion.
now , then , and forever this Love Song rings true
I think Ed Ames and Dean Martin are two of the most underrated singers of the 20th century
RIP, man.
One of my favourite singers. R.I.P.
Beautiful
I love this song so very much, thank you ed .

@@darthmusicofficial unfortunately he passed away today 5/27/23
He had a wonderful voice. I always enjoyed him in anything I saw him in.
I played that at my mom's funeral. I haven't heard it since then almost 2 years ago.😥
Always brings tears to my eyes. So full of love and memory of the good old days.
Daniel Boone was in its 3rd season in 1967 and Ed Ames was always part of my childhood whether on tv or playing on my parents record player.
Wonderful
WOW 👌 I didn't know he could song SO GOOD!!!
Listening 🎶 to Ed Ames in 2023‼️‼️‼️‼️

Always loved his beautiful voice!
God bless you Ed. Thanks for sharing your immense talent with us!

Love this song, and have loved it since I was 13. Interesting, this Ed Sullivan version was at a significant tempo increase when compared to the original record, on RCA.
The last verse is so poignant.
Especially when you hit your 50th anniversary. 😁😁😁😁
A song I remember hearing when I was young but I never knew who sang it until now. RIP Ed Ames
Fantastic......
I’ve heard of this individual and I believe I’ve seen him on an old western series as a kid. Never heard his singing before but what a voice.
Cudahy 1960 .. He and Fess Parker starred in The Adventures of Daniel Boone.
How beautiful he is! What an enchanting voice. I am glad I found this. Rest peacefully Ed Ames😔 I still love you even in 2024🌹🪶
What a blessings!
RIP Mr. Ed Ames.
My sister Cindy and I love this song. Another favorite is When The Snow Is On The Roses.
This is a GREAT upload! One of the most beautiful love songs ever written, and Ed Ames had an incredible voice. Thank you so much for this one! He also sang "When the Snow is on the Roses" on this show, which would be another nice one to upload.
What do you mean HAD? His voice is still more incredible than yours will ever be. Fact.
In the old time, their songs not only classic... they looked classic too !
Totally respect !! 💕💕💕💕👍👍👍👍
God bless. I remember this episode. What a beautiful man.❤
