My favourite song of all time and what a beautiful rendition. Perfect pitch and word Perfect. I am 85 now and I think I was 11 when I first heard it. Beautiful.
Well actually...we have technology to thank for smoothing out tone and voice dysphonics when recording of voices all started, that's when imperfections could start to be masked over....and the beautiful origin of a voice was not as authentic.... but i'll give you this...no auto tuning was occurring in 1958.
....I was looking for My Foolish Heart on You Tube and came across this random version, I clicked on it because I just thought she would be good....This is sublime.
Massimo from Italy. Today I discovered Ethel Ennis. Oh my God what a beautiful voice! Artists of this class are unfortunately very rare! Wonderful!!!❤❤👍👍
WTF is up with RUclips putting commercials in the MIDDLE of a sublime piece of music??? That trend needs to end. I love Ethel Ennis, she deserved to have been a huge star.
Oh my god, how haven't I never heard of ms. Ethel? I'm so mad I just got to discover her now, what a marvelous singer! I love how getting lost on my RUclips recommendations always leads me to some great new music discovery lmao I'm soooo getting her discography, excuse me.
I am 71 years old and an avid music listener since the early 1950's, but somehow this gal evaded me; was she "under wraps," or what? I never heard her on the radio, or as a guest in the countless venues on TV that featured vocalists, NOTHING! How could someone with such talent not have been commensurate- ly promoted? Truly right up there with the finest vocalists of this century!
@@thinkthensend9228 That's amazing! I am the same age as you and I remember her from my teenage years. I lived in Philly and she is from Baltimore. She is an incredible singer!
Milton Moore : She didn’t like being told how to look, sit, behave, and with whom to flirt. In 1967 she married a Mr. Arnett...amazingly, violating Maryland’s ‘anti-miscegenation’ laws. From 1984-1988 she and her first husband had a Club in Baltimore called, “ Ethel’s “...it was amazing! Especially for a very, very young person like me, to be able to walk into such a club.

Ethel Ennis, RIP, and Bravo 🌹
The night is like a lovely tune Beware my foolish heart How white the ever constant moon Take care my foolish heart There's a line between love and fascination That's hard to see on an evening such as this For they both have the very same sensation When you're locked in the magic of a kiss Her lips are much too close to mine Beware my foolish heart But should our eager lips combine Then let the fire start For this time it isn't fascination Or a dream that will fade and fall apart It's love, this time it's love My foolish heart
Just watched a movie by the same title and had to search the song. So happy to have discovered this version. Beautifully sung by a an ever greater artist...
This is my favorite version of Foolish Heart. I only came across with it late last night. I only learned about her only last night but the moment I heard her she has become one of the very, very few singers I like most... I wonder why she didn't have that celebrity status as that of Sarah Vaughan, my top one favourite singer, and Ella.. Hmm.. I've heard a lot of versions of Foolish Heart but hers is indescribably beautiful.More than class. Ethel is like the female counterpart of Billy Eckstine?
I have to admit I am someone who has listened to virtually every wonderful female singer ever recorded, the top names, as well as some of the lesser named vocalists who did quite well in the music business, like Patti Bowie, Patti Drew, and Teri Thornton, and how I missed Ethel Ennis I shall never know. She was simply marvelous.
Ethel was so fine a singer. I first heard her as introduced by a music mate, mid '60's, as he made a stereo by setting speakers in his cocktail cabinet ends. And, I have a video of her in her own club, New Years eve in Baltimore, with Joe Williams, Gerry Mulligan, Toots and many other fine musicians. So many excellent (often minority) jazz people got far less than was fair. Think of Arthur Prysock, Johnny Hartman, Gene Mumford of the Dominoes.
Acaba de destronar a Carly Simon en mis preferencias de esta canción , que hermosa voz muy agradecido porque no la conocía, en esa interpretación tenía yo 8 años apenas. Gracias mil!! Carlos Hernández Valencia Carabobo Venezuela
Her performance is emotional and swinger, intimate and warm, cool and beautiful diction. My most favorite singer. Since 1978 、I had been listening her records every day. Especially,”I cried for you" this track is wonderful. Dramatically different her to the correctly rhythm,warm striking vocal. She is amazing singer forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I get from her jazz vocal value and happiness. unfortunately,she is underrated top jazz singer.
February, 2019 If anyone is curious about Ethel Ennis, she turned away from fame. But because she had died, now is a good time to read about Baltimore’s “First Lady of the Blues”... I hope some of you were as fortunate as I was, to hear her sing at her club, ‘Ethel’s’...a wonderful club. RIP beautiful lady, you did very, very beautifully here on Earth 🌹

This is bullshit -- THIS woman is incredible. Where has she been? What did those damn record companies not do right for her? Her voice is just perfection. A little Jo Stafford, a little Sarah Vaughn. Don't tell me you don't know how to promote a talent like this. She should have sung with Brook Benton, Ray Charles and Nat King Cole. If not, later she should have sung with Johnny Mathis. This should have been a slam dunk. Good songs, great voice & wonderful musicians backing her. What happened? If I was a manager in the music business I would've scooped her up in a minute -- after hearing one song. I would've booked her immediately at the Newport Jazz Festival. There was virtually no work to be done -- she had it all. I'm really upset she didn't make a bigger dent in her career -- she deserved it so. I blame the record companies, & whatever management she had. Up until just a few minutes ago I never heard of her. And I listen to tons of music, some obscure as hell.
My favourite song of all time and what a beautiful rendition. Perfect pitch and word Perfect. I am 85 now and I think I was 11 when I first heard it. Beautiful.
RIP Ethyl. (1932-2019) Thanks for sharing your gift with us.
I am a proud Baltimore citizen! Ethel Ennis was a treasure and she will be missed!
Nobody singing this music like Ethel Ennis, is a special singer.
Can you imagine being such a great singer that your voice is this crystal clear in 58?
Well actually...we have technology to thank for smoothing out tone and voice dysphonics when recording of voices all started, that's when imperfections could start to be masked over....and the beautiful origin of a voice was not as authentic.... but i'll give you this...no auto tuning was occurring in 1958.
Lovely pinch. Her sound is so pleasant to the ear.
Well today I have discovered Ethel Ennis and I am a better person for it. My goodness what a voice and what a life she lived...did it her way.
well put, well put!!!!!
Same here, discovered her today - and what a delightful, sultry voice!
This is such a fantastic arrangement. I can't get over it. It matches perfectly with the singer.
How Beautiful !!! Fantastic ❤

The same did I. Totally ravished....a bit drunk inside...
Me too in 2021!

YT Premium, it will change your life.
What a wonderful discovery!!! I have never heard of her before. WOW!!
I would say she should be up there with Ella and Sarah.
Very smooth voice.
Magic.
For sure ... Pitch on and beautiful timbre!
Oh my god, how haven't I never heard of ms. Ethel? I'm so mad I just got to discover her now, what a marvelous singer!
I love how getting lost on my RUclips recommendations always leads me to some great new music discovery lmao I'm soooo getting her discography, excuse me.
She got me through a difficult tour in Thule, Greenland. Listening to her, help me maintain my sanity.

A perfect voice-and divine!
My favorite version of one of my favorite songs...Didn't discover Ethel until a few years ago...
Absolutely beautiful!
Découverte(for me!!).Classique,rétro(Le son ET diction) mais nickel ET cool❤️👍
What a beautiful voice
Ethel is one of my favorites! Thanks so much for posting! SO beautiful!
The night is like a lovely tune
Beware my foolish heart
How white the ever constant moon
Take care my foolish heart
There's a line between love and fascination
That's hard to see on an evening such as this
For they both have the very same sensation
When you're locked in the magic of a kiss
Her lips are much too close to mine
Beware my foolish heart
But should our eager lips combine
Then let the fire start
For this time it isn't fascination
Or a dream that will fade and fall apart
It's love, this time it's love
My foolish heart
This is really lovely and Ennis is so good at this type of ballad. She should be counted among the great vocalists.
こんなジャズの雰囲気が大好きです。
魅力的な声ですね。✨👍
She just left this world and the world is sadder for it. What a voice! God bless you and rest on sweet lady! You will never be forgotten.
Non ti avevo mai sentita HAI UNA VOCE FANTASTICA, ❤❤❤👏👏👏💖💖
Never heard of her. Wonderful singing.
This is the best interpretation of this music, your voice is amazing, Ethel you are splendid.
It's the best to you. Music is subjective.
@@joeblack8915 this is between Antonio and Ethel, bro
Wonderful voice, fantastic interpretation.
Where has she been all my life?
A beautiful rendition of this song. I just loved it.
I meant to say Ethel I am now a BIG fan of yours! Your voice is pure heaven!

the best song of her songs
After 50 years together, your heart isn't foolish, obviously!
久野隆三 ♥エセル エニスさん 💛👏 、、あなたの、歌を聞いて、、改めて原曲の大切さ、美しさが解ります！！ 、、我々、多くの、ミュージシャンは、ストレート演奏に耐えられず、いじくりまわしてしまう！ あちゃ～です。 、、、あなたの唄は、深く、心に沁み入りましたぁ～～ 、、、
Wow. Never dug this tune properly until hearing Ms. Ennis do it. Great voice. Great tempo. Great feeling.
Thanks for post5ing, rujazzka!

A very nuanced interpretation of an eloquent song. Her every word seems to express the strong but subdued heart beat of this foolish heart.
Beautiful voice

Never heard of her. WOW, what a great singer.
Sublime singer.
Man oh man could she sing!
😃Excellent.Oui.☺
Yes my heart may be foolish but not as much as some other parts, yeah!
Beautiful
Simply gorgeous sound
RIP with gratitude.
Beautiful rendition
Tasty singing, and this is a great song that isn't heard enough. Buddy Morrow did a nice instrumental for Mercury.
Gorgeous! I like ti slow, like this - her version is similar to Margaret Whiting's. Try it! But EE is just great here, on an absolutely wonderful song.
Slow like this and sparsely instrumented makes it more melancholy and emotional.
EE married a white guy who was younger than she, Both families objected but that was back in the 1960's when interracial romances were not always welcome but in the Jazz World anything is accepted! ;-)

One word. Spectacular!

This woman can sing. I have never heard of her. I'm going to look and see what other songs she has song.
Wow.
This is bullshit -- THIS woman is incredible. Where has she been?
What did those damn record companies not do right for her? Her voice is just perfection. A little Jo Stafford, a little Sarah Vaughn. Don't tell me you don't know how to promote a talent like this.

She look gorgeous
A wonderful voice. She needs MUCH more recognition.
R.I.P.
My passion is real
Very good interpretation. Love her voice - Very sexy.

I just heard of her 3 min. ago.
Es muy Carol el tema.
🌼🌱💙🙄
She and Omara Portuondo or Mercedes Sosa o Chavela Vargas together, they lower voices(3rd, 5rd but Armony downwas awe)
Would be awe.
Idk if this is the song from Widows, but it's good nonetheless.
