      Her ‘Specials’ were enormously successful, but then her show failed. She said, ‘Nobody can beat those Cowboys!’, and then-they never brought the specials back. Sad. Like everything else about the way ‘they’ did things. I don’t care for Rainbow so much as other songs, but with Judy--I would’ve liked to hear her had she been able to collaborate with black artistry.

    There is a line in the Wizard of OZ that Judy begins speaking and finishes singing: "If the wizard is a wizard who will serve.." "Who will serve" is sung with that controlled, throbbing vibrato that Mr. Pegasus is talking about in this video. I've always been fascinated by her singing of that brief three word phrase, and now I know why - what a genius she was! And kudos to Mr. P - fascinating analysis.

    Sammy Davis Junior said of Judy Garland, “She was the world’s first ☝🏾‘Superstar’.” On TCM everyone loved her, one actress saw them taking her food away, after an eight hour work day on a Christmas Parade. Norm Jewison said that she had ‘Frick and Frack’, Margaret O’Brien adored her, and they called her ‘the. funniest. woman. in. Hollywood.” Her Oscar should have been FULL sized.❤️

In the movie, "A Star Is Born" she sings, "The Man That Got Away" and you can't take your eyes off of her. She's marvelous.

    Thanks Fil. What a natural talent.
    I can’t see her without always thinking how the studios treated her, kept her on her drugs so that she could work longer hours often finishing at 5 am in the morning. They practically starved her in Wizard of Oz so that she could appear thin. Being tiny, any additional weight, even if she was underweight, apparently showed on film. She became addicted to pills at 15. Then there was the harassment and the unsuitable marriages. She has admitted that her life was hard. Poor woman died of an overdose at 47 yrs.

    I am an Artist (painter) and I have been called a "natural" talent. I understand this is meant as a compliment and am always grateful for any recognition. However, the "natural" as I see and feel it is the love of what you're doing and the training, time, work and commitment you put into your art. I know from many books and documentaries Judy worked her tail off most of her life. What is truly wonderful is watching Judy and her joy that comes through all of her performances.

    As a devoted Judy fan for over 40 years, the enjoyment I derive from your videos is immense! Judy is a vocal prodigy, an acrobat, an athlete. Having great songs to sing, and brilliant arrangements certainly helps, but so many conductors and musicians 'in the biz' marveled at her acumen both vocally and lyrically to interpret songs which communicated directly to audiences. Judy never faked it; she knew the essence of every song, and channeled its story immaculately. I believe her performances of songs are the definitive version, and, having listened to her repeatedly over the years, I can imagine to some degree how she would perform contemporary songs. Judy's style is unique to her--no one else can do what she does; her style is timeless, as greatness always is.

    I learned I Got Rhythm by playing along to an early Judy Garland video.
    Judy was the girl next door.
    An Angel.

    The hand gesture insight on Judy's vocals is uncanny. Just wow! I got the chills listening to this performance 60 years on the same as if I were seated front and center back in 1962. In Psalms or Proverbs it says, "The Lord inhabits the praises of His people." Judy inhabits her songs with a mortal immortality. Cheers!

    Thank you for analyzing one of the best singers of all time. Many modern vocalists can't hold a candle to her. Wonderful singer!

    Whoo hoo...have been waiting for you to do Judy....wanted to hear her voice through your ears. You never fail to educate and I always listen with a new appreciation after you have highlighted points in the voice that slipped by my untuned ears, thanks Fil.

    Thanks, Fil. She was and still is a legend. When she sang, she had you right there with her emotionally. You weren't going anywhere else until she let you go. I especially liked you pointing out how her speaking and singing voice were basically the same., and how that added immensely to a sense of intimacy with the audience. She was a total package: natural talent, superb control of her voice, emotional vulnerability, incredibly expressive hands. She was the real thing and totally unique.

    I always hoped I was named after Judy Garland. I loved her voice and her movies when I was a small child. When I learned I wasn't named after her, I was sad for about 5 minutes. Then I learned I was named after my great grandmother, who was full blood Choctaw native American, and decided that was almost as good.😁What a talent Judy was. Such a lovely, vibrant voice. Also, Fil, why when you slow down the video does Judy sound horrid, like she's drunk, but she sounds so good at regular speed?

    You used the word "animated", and well put . . . She seemed a creation an animator might come up with to show what "performance" could look/sound like if inventing a character. I've always felt, watching/listening to her, as though there was a tightrope she was balanced on, but could not just walk it, had to up the (performance) game. Great analysis, as always. Thank you.

    Wow, awesome analysis of Judy's vibrato. I don't know that I've ever heard it broken down so intricately, and hearing your explanation, it does make total sense now that she's hitting a nearly perfect frequency. I often wonder with great singers if it's a conscious effort, gone through over and over in rehearsals, or if it just happens naturally as their voice syncs to whatever they're singing. I'm trying to think now of a performance of Judy's with extended phrases in straight tone, but I'm coming up empty. It does seem that vibrato is part of what makes her voice so instantly recognizable. Speaking of the frequency, I wonder what some of the fastest vibratos sound like, or if they would eventually level out into straight tone. One of the fastest I've seen is Dimash in "Sinful Passion," where I'm not even sure if it's vibrato or some other technique. Lots to think about. Thanks again for the analysis.

    Wow! So this performance was only six years before her death in 1969 at the age of 47. She left us way too soon...

    Absolutely an amazing singer and actress. So blessed with tonnes of superior talents that almost no one posess. But her life. So much misery. She died young, drugs. She was in control when singing and acting, she lost control in real life. But sure I consider her one of the best singers ever.
    You did your homework Fil. Your analyses is spot on. Regarding this song I would add that its insanely difficult to sing. The song consists of so many different styles and expressions that its not easy only to keep track of the different parts. Judy Garland did it so natural, so fluently. No flaws. Pure music.
    Thanks for your amazing review.
