I saw Johnny in concert the first time in the late 60s in Louisville and he sang all the great songs from Man of La Mancha with the Impossible Dream the finale, complete with a disco ball. I've been a fan since 1958 and I'm so blessed to have seen him 8 times in concert and to be alive in his lifetime to enjoy his wonderful voice.
I wish my mother was alive to know youtube. She made me listen to Johnny Mathis and now at age 47 myself, he is one of the most amazing voices ever and I wonder how many youth of today know of him.
This performance took my breath away, he is so naturally talented! very rare these day's. I loved how most of the song's he sang were about love, he seemed to be quite the romantic.
Johnny Mathis, the greatest singer ( along with Elvis)in our generation. I went to many of Johnny's concerts. Money well spent. He sounded better in person, if that is possible. The man with the golden voice. No one can deliver a romantic melody like him. Thank you John for all the beautiful songs you have given to us. They will live on 4 ever as long as there are lovers in this world. Sure happy you chose a singing career over sports. Wise choice, for us, that is lol. Bless you John......... live well.
He's just one of the Top 3 male, pop vocalists of the entire 20th Century. That's all!! Here he does the Great Trilogy from an underrated score. It includes Dulcinea -- perhaps one of the most beautiful songs of all time. And noone - noone has ever or will ever do it better!!!
Simply incredible! If you want to get the cd with the recordings of these songs, they are available on the Mercury So Nice/ Johnny Mathis Sings cd released a few years ago. To think that JM dared to hit that last high note live is a testament to his fabulous vocal ability. Many singers would never try that live. Bravo!
Now you know why Frank wouldn't let John join the swing club. He and Dean couldn't mop the floor after that vocal performance. Still John has had the last laugh. Still a superstar long after they dwindle into drink and confusion. A true gentleman and consummate artiste - we will not see his like again.
Me sinto como dom Quixote ,quero ver Johnny mathis bem pertinho, Mas vejo os vídeos e sonho que ele canta para mim eu amo sua voz maravilhosa que sabe um dia muito além ele canta só para mim 🎉🎉🎉
I saw a show a couple of years ago where Burt Bacharach did a RAP piece with some well known Rapper, I thought it was awful since he is one of the best song writer of ballad and my favorite composer/writer , thank God Mr. Mathis never did that , I was able to evolve along with him , he always stays true to himself and that is an attractive quality in a person ,
man of lamanche is really his only song i like and believe i do not speak out of ijnorance, my mother was a fan of is an as a boy, she loved to crank his tapes (she had an old school reel to reel tape deck and she used to love cranking him, johnny cash, tom jones and of course, elvis)
@mathislover i actually like the commercial. it makes me feel like im watching his performance when it first aired. johnny SANG this damn song... if you care, look up BLAKE GILDAPHISH on facebook. i have several paintings in johnny's image. that is, if you care...LOL
I WAS OR AM THE TRINITY AND YET, THEY SCORN ME. I GAVE MUCH TO THE PEOPLE OF TEHACHAPI AND THEY HAVE NO SENSE OF HUMOR, WHICH , I MUST SAY, IS THE STRONGEST SHIELD AGAINST THE INIVITABLE . I HAVE NOTHING BUT YOU. I HAVE BEEN SNUBBED ENOUGH AND WILL NOT GIVE ANY MORE WASTED CHANCES TO THOSE WHO ARE BLIND.
THE REASON I AM AN ATHEIST IS ONLY LOGICAL AND EACH OF YOU HAVE ASKED THIS VERY QUESTION: IF THERE'S A GOD, THEN WHY IS THERE SO MUCH TROUBLE IN THIS WORLD? IT SIMPLY DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE BECAUSE GOD IS ALL,-KNOWING AS WELL AS ALL LOVING. THE ONLY THING ANYONE CAN DEDUCE IS THERE IS NO GOD. AND THAT'S WHY I AM AN ATHEIST.
LIFE CONTINUES TO STINK FOR ME, AS I AM SURE YOU WERE ALWAYS AWARE OF THOSE PEOPLE I WAS NEVER ABLE TO BREAK THE BARBED WIRE SURROUNDING THEIR HEARTS. WHICH OF COURSE LED ME INTO AN ISOLATED LIFESTYLE BECAUSE IGNORANCE IS EVEN MORE DANGEROUS AND VIOLENT THAN RACISM.
I KNOW OUR DAY WILL COME. MY LOVE, WHEN WE'LL HAVE EVERYTHING. I WEAR A SMILE WHENEVER I GO OUT BECAUSE THIS IS MY WAY, DESPITE WHAT INSULT COMES MY WAY. I KNOW THINGS WILL GET EASIER NOW. I HAVEN'T FELT THAT HAPPENING. I SEE ANGRY FACES OF MOVIE STARS AND MODELS . THEY HAVE BEEN MAKING MONEY HAND OVER FIST FOR AGES. EVERYONE IT SEEMS IS LIVING THE GOOD LIFE AS IF THEY DIDN'T REALIZE THAT THERE IS NO FREE LUNCH. NEVER SAY ANOTHER PERSON IS ALL THEY NEED BECAUSE YOU MUST FIND HAPPINESS IN YOUR OWN WAY HAPPINESS IS AN INSIDE JOB. YOU BROUGHT ME TO TEHACHAPI, BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T SPEAK OUT AGAINST IT AND ABOUT THIS PLACE OF WHITE SUPREMACY AND IGNORANCE. WHAT YOU ALLOW IS WHAT YOU SPEAK..LIKEWISE WHAT YOU DON'T STOP BY ACTIONS IS ON YOU. NO ONE CAN CONTROL THE ACTIONS OF ANOTHER. YOU CAN'T CHANGE A MAN AND TEHACHAPI IS A PLACE OF EVIL LIES AND TAKE DOWN OF ME, WHO ONLY CAME TO AID TEHACHAPI AND TEACH YOU A NEW WAY TO LIVE. TEHACHAPI REFUSED MY ASSISTANCE AND HAVE BEEN DESRECPFUL SINCE MY ARRIVAL 22 YEARS AGO. HERE'S A PLACE CALLED A BLACK HOLE. I STAY AWAY FROM IGNORANCE AND HATE.. IT DOESN'T TOUCH ME. I WILL CONTINUE TO DO THE RIGHT THING, EVERY SINGLE TIME DESPITE WHAT OTHERS ARE DOING...AMERICA WAS AN EXPERIMENT THAT FAILED. THERE NEVER WAS FREEDOM HERE JUST THE. OPPOSITE IS TRUE.. BORDERS SHOULD NEVER BE NEEDED IN A FREE COUNTRY JUST AS TRADE AMONG OTHER NATIONS SHOULD NEVER HAVE PUNITIVE TARIFFS PLACED UPON THEM IF THEY WISH TO TRADE WIITH US. AMERICA IS NOT A GREAT COUNTRY. IT ROOTS IN SLAVERY BY A MAN WHO CALLED HIMSELF JUST THE OPPOSITE WAS LINCOLN WHO WASN'T AN ABOLITIONIST. HE OWNED SLAVES AND THAT MADE THE ECONOMY WORK FOR MOST WHITE MEN. FIND .NOTHING WRONG IN WHAT BOOTH DID. HE DID US A FAVOR..
JOHNNY IS MAGNIFICENT HERE AND HE WILL BE FOREVER. HE AND I WILL BE FOREVER YOUNG BECAUSE OF THE LOVE WE SHARE TOGETHER. I FOUND HIM . I THINK OF HIM ALL THE DAY LONG.. WE REACHED THE UNREACHABLE STAR , YOU AND I DID JUST THAT, MY DARLING..
I Love this man!♥️
His voice is truly a gift from God.
This man is truly one of the greatest singers to ever grace our planet…

Brilliant! And still singing beautifully all these decades later. A living legend. So grateful for his incredible music. God bless you, Johnny.
Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful! There is no one like Johnny Mathis!🎶😭😍
Magnificent.
I'm 32 years old and have been obsessed with Johnny's voice since I was about 18. That was 1994 and I surely stood out among my peers.
I saw Johnny in concert the first time in the late 60s in Louisville and he sang all the great songs from Man of La Mancha with the Impossible Dream the finale, complete with a disco ball.
I've been a fan since 1958 and I'm so blessed to have seen him 8 times in concert and to be alive in his lifetime to enjoy his wonderful voice.
Magnificent vvoice

ASTONISHING! God bless Mr. Mathis....best thing I've seen him do save '99 Miles From LA' and 'Maria.'
Beautiful! Him and the song.

Love love love. There is no singer nor more beautiful songs to sing. In this 2015.
Love this I could listen to this version of this all day.
Johnny, the man has some voice , incredible breath control WOW...p.s. I thought the man at the end of that commercial said- Shit shape!...LOL
Who could POSSIBLY give this the thumbs down?
+Carole Linda 6 fools with no ear.
Probably Taylor Swift fans.
Ele é lindo!
i agree with you so much,Mathis had the finest voice ever.
Simply incredible! If you want to get the cd with the recordings of these songs, they are available on the Mercury So Nice/ Johnny Mathis Sings cd released a few years ago.

Terrible diction sounds high but the voice is just thin because he sings with a high larynx and stiff jaw
Incorrect.
