    I've only known about Cilla for two and a half years.
    but she sang wonderfully, with a wonderful voice, always smiling, a very nice and also very friendly person who always gave you a smile in each of his photos. I started listening to her in December 2021 following a movie that was released in theaters, and I immediately picked up several of her albums. I actually have one signed by herself. From the sweetness in each melody to the power in the choruses. Not only a good professional, but also a good person. It's a shame that she died when she was still young and in the way she died here in Spain. At her house in Estepona (Malaga). RIP Cilla (1943-2015).

      Loved both of these ladies and have a ton of their stuff, to see them together is surreal, they were from different eras but it works, and you can tell that Cilla is belting just that bit more to keep in volume with Ethel!

    This is the really nice thing, how two people with a difference of 35 years get along very well. Cilla was approximately 30 years old and Ethel was 65 or so, but that doesn't have to be an impediment to anything, and Cilla enjoyed Ethel and vice versa too, there was not the slightest hint of envy, on the contrary. Ethel and Cilla collaborating very well.

    This is incredible! This is one of the few times that we have the great Ethel Merman singing a complete version TOGETHER WHEREVER WE GO. I don't know who Cilla Black is - but she's good. Just look at Ethel groove! You got to hand it to Ethel, she continued to evolve through the years. Look at how often she sang her old songs to new arrangements. And she DID continue to experiment with new repertoire as the years went by. Two of her great last contributions to her catalog were WHAT I DID FOR LOVE - and her rendition of TOMORROW on the Muppet Show.

      Thanks for your great comment! You're absolutely right about Merman, she made a career out of a handful of songs, she was brilliant, would have loved to have seen her live and have a ton of her stuff on CD and DVD! Love the Disco Album!! Cilla Black was one of the biggest stars in UK showbiz, starting out as a singer in the 60s with two number one hits - Anyone Who Had A Heart and You're My World - and a whole load of others and later became more well known for being the most popular host on TV. This clip is from her own series, go check out some of her 60s hits and later things. 😁

      "Where evaaa we gaaaowww" sings Merman 😆 Cilla changed the way she sang slightly for this, being a bit louder and belting to match the great Eth!

    Am I imagining this… I saw her with Cass Elliot but Ethel Merman? I wasn’t around so I really don’t mean to be unkind but was Cilla really THAT famous? Ethel sounding and looking fantastic!

      She was indeed, from 60s pop star, she got her own high rating TV series in 1968 - I was only born then myself! - and it ran till 1976, this is from an episode of Cilla's TV series in the 1970s, such was her popularity and viewing figures, they attracted all the big names as guests. Cilla's show is also where the "Song For Europe" was broadcast for Cliff's Eurovision entries.

      @@GeorgeLyall Thanks for answering. I genuinely wasn’t trying to be rude so I’m grateful that you replied. I was born in the 90’s so I only really saw Cilla on television. I just took it for granted that she was a beloved television host. I’m embarrassed to admit that I had no idea that she was a singer until much, much later. Even then I assumed she was only a star here in the U.K. but she’s been popping up on my feed lately doing duets with just about everyone and every guest, especially Americans, seemed to love her.
      Also, you can’t get more eclectic than Ethel and Cilla singing “Together” from Ethel’s show “Gypsy”. Ethel still had some belt in her. As I was watching I kept shouting in my head, “sing out, Cilla!”.

      @@musicalmagpie741 Lol...Funnily enough, Cilla's singing style on this is different, she seems to be trying to match Ethel's way of belting out the song. I think it's good that more are discovering Cilla's songs - she had two number one singles before even I was born and a whole load of hit singles and albums too. Ethel and Cilla are two of my favourite performers...never thought I'd see them together on the same show either. Apparently Elvis had her single on his personal jukebox! 😁
