    Best version ever! The lady is so under-rated but like Judy Garland she gave such hope to poor people around the world during the Depression and the hard times of the 30's (her films were massively popular lest we forget). She's not only a populist hero but with that voice she walks with angels...god bless her.

    Deanna Durbin a true treasure.
    No fancy props, smoke and mirrors, no revealing outfits.
    Just a golden voice, lovely face and she steals the show.

    The pipes have called, Deanna. The summer is gone, the last rose has faded, and the valley is hushed with snow.
    Thank you for bringing light and beauty to a nation suffering though a Depression and World War II.
    Sleep in peace, Deana. Time for me to say that Ave.

    My son Danny I lost some years ago and have moved on, but at times I need this so as not to forget the love I had for my boy

    There is not a time one hears this song, Irish or not, when the heart is not affected and the tears well up in one's eyes. Ms Durbin is especially gifted in her rendition.
    For all who have lost or miss a loved one this brings sad joy. Mashallah!

    @masterlessmaster 12 лет назад +27

    Aye! And a fairer maiden never graced this good earth. The most beautiful angel sang the most honest rendition, and with a tear in her eye. Bow down and kiss the earth beneath her feet, for you are in the presence of the voice of God in female form..

    @syourke3 8 лет назад +32

    This song was surely meant for a woman to sing. It is a love song directed to a young man. And this version is wonderful! I am getting tears in my eyes. And she is tearing up while she sings it! The most heartbreaking song of love I ever heard.

    Deanna, for me, was the true voice for Danny Boy. The movie was awesome. Her voice was a blessing from Heaven and no-one can put the heart in your throat like she could. She will be greatly missed.

    Watching Deanna Durbin sings, she's so beautiful and her voice is perfect for me.....glad Maestra gave me the songs of Deanna Durbin as my pieces too.

  • @violinthief
    @violinthief  16 лет назад +19

    Richard, I had the same response when I first encountered Durbin - her first movie "Three Smart Girls". It was during a song I uploaded - "Someone to Care for Me". Hearing that magnificent voice coming from a 14 year old face just blew me away. The world has come a long way, technologically, in the last 70 years. But we've lost a lot, too. My Deanna Durbin videos, not to mention my uploads of Fred Astaire and Irene Dunne, all demonstrate how much talent was appreciated back then and isn't now.

    Deanna Durbin's version of Danny Boy is so incredibly beautiful that it reaches down into my soul. What a fantastic voice! She captures the melancholy mood of the song so well--simply angelic!!

  • @beetrootbertha
    @beetrootbertha 13 лет назад +3

    know one can sing this like deanna the voice of an angel sang with true heart and feeling thats why it moves you to tears , she has an amazing control in her voice that seems to come with ease, jackie evancho has it to , it cant be taught , its a gift from the angels . is anyone out there still amazed at how such a big voice comes out of such a little person. tina

    Film "Because of him", 1949. Deanna Durbin was always one of my fovorites. Her voice at a very young age, would surpasse a lot of singers. But It seems like she faded quickly from the screen? But I always love her voice. Thank you for sharing this.
