Beyond incredible! Even with her voice in shreds after so many years of abuse with booze, drugs and cigarettes, Judy is still able to belt out this song with such force and clarity, that it's an absolute miracle of glorious sound !
Actually, she really had a great voice until the end. Around '67 she was taking some kind of medication, so I've read, and it dried her throat and affected her singing. She was taken off the medication and her voice recovered. Too late, however, to save her life from her addiction, sadly.
Judy's fans were extremely loyal to her and if judy played Helen Lawson and patty duke ripped off Judy's wig, fans would have clubbed patty duke in the lobby lol
Judy was well aware of the scene and I'm sure she would have had a blast doing it and made sure fans knew it ahead of time so Patty Duke would live to see her 21st birthday. Too bad the director was such an absolute shit to her. Calling her in at 6:00 am and having her wait until 5:00 to call her on to the set. He treated her like the movie turned out. as directed..
She was paid half of what she would have received had she completed her role. She did not steal her wardrobe, the designer made her a gift of the costumes she chose to keep, realistically, no one else could have squeezed in them anyway. And according to a well-researched book, Judy, by Gerold Frank that came out in 1974, the song was supposed to have been redone by Judy, it was not the final take that would have ultimately been in the finished product. I'm grateful that she recorded the song and sang the hell out of it, and I am extremely glad that she was NOT in that film.
Listen to the change in key, the way she shows excitement in her voice (when God knows, this song is nothing to get excited about!), and the length of time she holds her notes...I fell in love with Liza Minnelli's performances cause she reflected so many of her mother's techniques. But there is still no better than Judy!
OMG, this was no simple soundtrack overlay, someone spent hours duping and deleting frames to get the lips to synch up. And yet it still seems funny to hear Garland's voice out of Hayward. The huskier, deeper Margaret Whiting voice just matches her better.
Judy was the greatest singer ever in Cinema. But her voice was so distinctive, nobody would EVER mistake that for Susan Hayward's voice had Judy's version been used. Too bad that Judy couldn't finish the film.
@StephanieBridges Agree! Judy was a vocal powerhouse while at the same time the mistress of subtlety. Judy really did run the gamut from A to Z! Noone comes close.
I could not agree more with jeh500 more !! I always thought that song was just horrible, ( The work of Andre and Dory Previn). The combination of odd lyrics and a very difficult octave range made it impossible for even a quite talented singer to accomplish.. I cannot believe what Judy Garland did with that song. She took a literal piece of un-singable crap and made it astonishing... She was a true genius and talent (as proven especially by this song). She was noted for recording many of her songs in only one "take", not needing constant re-recording, Her talent was more than incredible, what a tragic loss when she died... Rest in Blessed Peace, Richard Ransom Beman
I thought it was a boring, stupid and asinine song that was monotonous. It should have never been filmed, or if it was, should have been cut from the film. It has always bothered me watching that scene with her singing that boring song and wondering all the while, how does it fit in with "musical" that they are watching when it looks like she's on the Dean Martin show, the Ed Sullivan show or one of those shows that were so popular back then.
Richard Beman It’s true, but I always felt that it was a bad song by intention. Andre Previn was way too talented to unintentionally compose such an un-vocal melody. The song accentuated the unfairness of the plot and supported the underlying message of the film that show business isn’t about what’s fair.
Fantastic job! Particularly the added reaction / long shots at the end to cover Judy's extended "I'll". Amazing. It actually makes you believe the awe this woman is supposed to inspire.
George Reddick Thanks - you're right, everything was going along great until I got to that long note, There was no way to make Hayward's performance match Judy's. So re-using the long shot and reaction shot was the only solution. Surprisingly, most people don't notice it's two re-used shots!
I love it. I actually think the extra reaction shot of Lyon looking impressed during that big note really hits home how great the vocal is. It really seems like he's hearing that note! Really well done!
The incredible Ms. Garland skips beats, slurs over the worst lyrics and makes the Andre Previn (great show biz tune) song almost believable. Boy, did she have the gift!
I love how the comments on the other Valley of the Dolls video is all praising and semi enjoying the scene. THESE comments are all by people who know Hollywood, know the system, know what dubbing is and how to pick 'em. Good taste you all have. I feel like I walked in amongst intelligent people again haha
Patty Duke said that they hired Judy for publicity...and then fired her for the same reason. I hope she at least got paid for her effort. She made off with the costumes and was later seen performing in the glittery number in Central Park. Good for her.
I wonder if that's true? I heard she was so messed on up uppers and downers, aka DOLLS, she was pulling a Marilyn Monroe and not showing up or showing up hours late on the set. Could be true, who knows?
You could fill a whole book with the stories of Judy and VOTD that still circulate. God knows what really went down. Some say she quit, others that she was fired. If she was fired they would have been required to pay her.
Judy Garland was an amazing singer. She struggled in many ways at the end she of her life but always deivered 100% , failures and all . I personally think that this recording is vocally great. No cracks or slurs from and she her at all and she pin-points the last notes right on pitch. Love or loath the song, Judy nailed it !!! The song may not be that great but Judy was, and she still is. Period!!!
What a great review that you have given here. Short and sweet and right on the ball. I agree she could sing the dictionary to me and I would still be sold. );; > @@moorlock2003
Judy hated this song, and didn't want to recorded it, but the others were worse, she tired to get them bring in Roger Eden's, and they refused, so she was forced to record it, but her voice on this sing was so strong and powerful topped with the arrangement done for her, out shines the other versions
@@AllenMQuinn thank you! It's HORRIBLE in every way. The only great thing here was the editing/synching etc. Nice to see Susan Hayward and remember her in "I Want to Live!". Seeing this, I almost wanted to die.
JG correct, my opinion too, she said it is a weak song. But wow, Susan Hayward, good on ya: a great actress with glamour, JG always a tough act to follow.
Listening to phenomenal Garland vocal show what a lost opportunity not working with her to star in "Valley Of The Dolls" was, maybe they just didn't want the Diva to walk away with the film, listening to Judy scale the vocal heights in "I'll Plant My Own Tree" finale show that would have been a possibility, clearly she still could belt them out as only she could do...awesome notes at the end!
Judy's performance was too good for the movie, but it would've been fascinating to see her belt out "Tree" and not be upstaged by those damn far-out, groovy mobiles.
I always found it amazing that they chose a voice to dub Susan Hayward's singing that sounded absolutely nothing whatsoever like Susan Hayward! When they dubbed Patty Duke's singing voice they found someone with a voice so close to Duke's it could have passed for Patty Duke - but Margaret Whiting's singing voice is a dainty flower coming out of that truck-driver of a woman that was Susan Hayward.
Thanks!!!!!! This is chillingly good!!!!! What a goddess Judy Garland was. Margaret Whiting--wasn't she Jack Wrangler's procurer, er, I mean his wife???
@@zzzbbbooo you and many other people obviously underestimate the unlimited talent of Judy Garland. There was absolutely nothing she couldn't do and the surface of her unlimited talent was only barely scratched during her short lifetime. She was brilliant in "judgment at Nuremberg" and was nominated again for her brilliant acting in this serious and intriguing heart felt drama. Who could have ever guessed that Judy Garland had that kind of untapped talent to be able to portray such a deep , heart rending emotional role? Everyone already knows her iconic and brilliant acting in "a star is born" and how she was robbed of her absolutely deserved oscar. Her last film "I could go on singing" actually proved she could play a somewhat mean and bitch of a person when the character called for it to be played. People under estimate her ability and that God given talent!🤔🤗👍
I wonder if Hayward was actually singing the words to try and make the dubbing look more convincing. In any case, she forgot to breathe like a singer. She waved her arms around and tossed her shoulders, but that rib cage isn't moving. When Garland or any other singer belts out a tune, they pump their lungs like a bellows and often break a sweat. Though if Hayward were to imitate that breathing without actually trying to sing, she would probably fall over from the hyperventilation. I think I saw a video clip of Garland doing a screen test in that same dress.
I've seen this movie a few times, and I still don't understand, if this song is from a musical, how it fit into the musical that everyone is watching in the movie? Just looks and sounds like its a performance on some tv show that were popular at the time, such as Ed Sullivan.
Judy disliked the song, and she tried to get them to allow her to sing a song called "Get Off Looking Good" that she sang at least at one concert for sure. It can be found on one of the unofficial concert recordings floating around.
@@misterhot9163 not according to Barbara Parkins. She completed her one scene early with Judy and said she was brilliant. She is now convinced that Judy's work was so great that if she had been allowed to complete the film , Judy would surely have finally won her oscar!🤗
This is wonderful . What a wonderful idea . That's what they should have done in the first place since they already had Judy's recording of it in the can . And by the way , if they didn't use Judy's voice they should have let Susan Hayward do it herselp . Susan Hayward proved she could sing in "I'll Cry Tomorrow" . What were they thinking by using Margaret Whiting ?
SH was a fine singer but I don't think she thought so. Even Debbie Reynolds was dubbed in "Singin' in the Rain" not, obviously, because she couldn't sing, but because they wanted a more mature-sounding voice for that one particular song.
I always wondered what this show she was in was supposed to be about cause the set and the aong are ao ridiculous but thats why its such camp and we love it lol
OMG! WOW!I had no idea that this existed! Thank you.Took me 50 years but once again I find that if you live long enough... Here we have Susan Hayward lip=syncing Judy Garland ,Margaret Whiting and Ethel Merman Helen Lawson" a fictionalized Ethel Merman Jacqueline Susann"s past anamoratta, from her novel "Valley of the Dolls"whose second main character( based on Judy Garland)"Neely O'Hara" a girl/ woman with the most incredible singing voice God ever gave a person which made her a star, is played by Patty Duke , who could carry a tune but who's singing voice was dubbed. It's amazing Marnie Nixon wasn't involved. Thank You again,. I know, Like and Subscribe.
I'm surprised that they didn't use this in the film. Maybe they were afraid of getting sued. Nobody sang like Garland but it was obvious she was near the end at this point. Anyone who sees "Judy" will see that. Poor Judy. So much raw talent wasted.
I blamed the director Mark Robson for firing her because he & 20th Fox never intended to have Judy on the picture, they were only using her for publicity for the picture. She was paid $50,000 for 1 weeks work.
When Susan Hayward was offered the role of Helen Lawson from Mark Robson, she said on one condition that Judy Garland gets her full salary for being to let go from the production! This happened along with a hefty paycheck for Susan Hayward as she was less than enthusiastic about the role!
I've never understood how some singers like Patti Page, Margaret Whiting, Steve Lawrence, EVER became famous!! I mean, Judy just hits this song right outta the ballpark!! Not a lot of singers have this vocal ability. And the singers of today 99%: NO TALENT!!
What a damn shame they did not keep her in the role disgrace . They should have extended their love and appreciation !! It would have been perfect for her and the movie .
I loved Judy, but if this is what she sounded like at the time then it's a good thing she didn't do it. She was great on her TV SHOW which was a little earlier than the film. You can tell by interviews she did about doing the film that she had lost alot of weight and it seemed like she was on her way down. It's a shame, because she was the best there was on stage at one time.
It was a mistake to have thought about her being in the film cause her forte was not playing bitches.It did not fit her, plus she was taking too many drugs and look too sickly ot play the part, Susan Hayward did justice to the role.She knew how to play the bitch.A she was good at it.
the character of Helen is clearly not sympathetic where is Judy play mostly sympathetic Rose so it would have never worked I think putting Helen Hayes in this Betty Davis are Joan Crawford it would have been a great and interesting group I think that Judy would have been horrible in this and well Judy may have been known as someone who gets sympathy because of her life stage mom finances and drugs Helen was truly a barracuda sorry little Julian also known as Dorothy would have down the road that kind of Justice that Lawson brought to it

USING MARGARET WHITING'S VOICE WAS EVEN WORSE THEN LETTING SUSAN HAYWARD DO HER OWN SINGING...WE SAW HER OWN SINGING IN I'LL CRY TOMORROW"...BAD NEWS THERE..AND I AM A BIG FAN OF SUSAN HAYWARD....
This was Judy’s role to loose, and she lost it! I think Susan Hayward did a good job! Had good chemistry with Patty Duke! Just like Joan Crawford getting fired from Hush,Hush Sweet Charlotte, Olivia de Havilland was the better choice!
Yes. I've read she hated the dialogue, "I can't say these words!" she allegedly said. Besides the way she was treated, I really think she didn't want to make this trashy movie. It was beneath her.
@@hudsony777 I agree, It really threw me for a loop when Susan Hayward was uttering all that swearing in her first scene. Never thought I would hear that kind of language outside of an X Rated film!
@@hudsony777 I'm with you on that! But Susan Hayward really did some very good movies...I especially like: "I'[ll Cry Tomorrow" and that argument/fight between her and Jo Van Fleet!! Very powerful, indeed!!
@@usmale49I really have to make a point of seeing that as there's a wonderful musical clip from it here on YT, but that's one of her most famous films and I've yet to see it.
eurouc In the late sixties (when this film was made) nobody was miked on Broadway. Other than that defense, I find this film unwatchable today. As a teen at the time I couldn’t get enough of it. You live you grow.

So much better than Margaret Whiting's version used in the film.

I always thought this song was silly, but Judy's version makes it sound like a big hit.
I've read that she hated it and was trying to get them to use another song.
It would have been a big hit if they had dubbed Judy's voice! Amazing talent!
As usual she elevates even the worst song
Agreed~~~~Whenever/wherever/whatever she has sung, she puts her whole being in to it..RIP! ❤
Judy's fans were extremely loyal to her and if judy played Helen Lawson and patty duke ripped off Judy's wig, fans would have clubbed patty duke in the lobby lol
THAT'S FUNNY.
That's hysterical. Yes, they'd have plucked out her eyes for sure. Garland's fans are a little nuts.

Wow. That's some editing job. Judy's phrasing was nothing like Margaret Whiting's and you made it sync to Hayward's performance perfectly. Brava!

You even fixed the part at 1:07 when Susan Hayward looks like she closes her mouth before the word "grow" ends 👀😂
Judy was the greatest singer ever in Cinema. But her voice was so distinctive, nobody would EVER mistake that for Susan Hayward's voice had Judy's version been used. Too bad that Judy couldn't finish the film.
No one is seriously suggesting that would ever have been done.

What's amazing is that this number, as staged here, would never happen in any Broadway musical ever.
It rarely happens that fictional Broadway musicals are realistically presented in Hollywood films, "Staying Alive" being the biggest WTF offering.
Yes, it has no setting, no context.

I blamed the director Mark Robson for firing her because he & 20th Fox never intended to have Judy on the picture, they were only using her for publicity for the picture. She was paid $50,000 for 1 weeks work.
Garland nails it!!!
Judy does a great job on this terrible song, definitely elevates it to not bad.
Wow!
THAT voice coming out of THAT mature sophisticated woman is fall down funny!
When Susan Hayward was offered the role of Helen Lawson from Mark Robson, she said on one condition that Judy Garland gets her full salary for being to let go from the production! This happened along with a hefty paycheck for Susan Hayward as she was less than enthusiastic about the role!
Wasn't judy in great voice at this time in her life fab !
Sempre. Meravigliosa
Judy's version was actually very very good!
They should have used Eileen Wilson or whoever it is on the soundtrack album. Although it is funny to think what Judy would have made of that mobile.
I agree - Eileen was great!
I wonder where this film would've gone if both Judy and Petula Clark had excepted their roles.
Who was Petula Clark supposed to play? Neely??
Petula Clark? Never heard anything about her being considered for Valley of the Dolls! Where did you get that information from?
How odd. Garland as a dubbing artist.
That's funny ; ) She did the animated "Gay Puree!" with Robert Goulet.
I actually think Judy's Singing voice sounds closer to Susan Hayward's voice than Margaret Whiting's dub for the film.
I've never understood how some singers like Patti Page, Margaret Whiting, Steve Lawrence, EVER became famous!!
I mean, Judy just hits this song right outta the ballpark!!
Not a lot of singers have this vocal ability.
And the singers of today 99%: NO TALENT!!
I've never liked Whiting. Steve L. had some good songs. Don't know PP well.
Eydie Gorme!
Blame It On He Bossa Nova!!
I want that mobile
Hayward is doing drag queen moves. it’s been alleged for years and obviously true.
Ce n'est pas Judy Garland !!!C'est la magnifique Susan Hayward très grande actrice et très belle !!!!!!
It’s Judy’s voice.
lyrics by Dory Previn
albertdiner Her husband was stolen away by Rosemary Woodhouse.
@@stuartlee6622 Very clever to mention Mia Farrow's role in "Rosemary's Baby"! I applaud you!!!
Grateful that this visual rubbish wasn't Judy's final film. After a great career this would be no way to go out.
There is a CD of "final" recordings, but it doesn't sound as good as this. She actually made something out of this song, didn't she? Sorry Margaret.
I always thought this was a strange little song. Not much of a lyric. Does anyone know who wrote this?
Dory Previn wrote the lyrics; Andre Previn wrote the music.
LoLoL~ Bravo!

What a damn shame they did not keep her in the role disgrace . They should have extended their love and appreciation !! It would have been perfect for her and the movie .
The character Neely O'hara was based on Judy.
wonderful but is this on cd
Someone should use CGI and make this the video it should have been all along.
I loved Judy, but if this is what she sounded like at the time then it's a good thing she didn't do it. She was great on her TV SHOW which was a little earlier than the film. You can tell by interviews she did about doing the film that she had lost alot of weight and it seemed like she was on her way down. It's a shame, because she was the best there was on stage at one time.
please where can i find a recording of this?
01:07 LOL 🤣
It was a mistake to have thought about her being in the film cause her forte was not playing bitches.It did not fit her, plus she was taking too many drugs and look too sickly ot play the part, Susan Hayward did justice to the role.She knew how to play the bitch.A she was good at it.
Pure camp
Ms. Streisand. I'm so glad I'm the homosexual and you're the "Star" This should be lots of fun, don't you think?! Don xoxo
No less believable than Margaret Whiting's voice coming out of her.
I am so glad Judy did not play the part. The character Helen Lawson was a louse!
Poor Susan got stuck with it.
to all you people who says that Garland should have been Lawson
the character of Helen is clearly not sympathetic where is Judy play mostly sympathetic Rose so it would have never worked I think putting Helen Hayes in this Betty Davis are Joan Crawford it would have been a great and interesting group I think that Judy would have been horrible in this and well Judy may have been known as someone who gets sympathy because of her life stage mom finances and drugs Helen was truly a barracuda sorry little Julian also known as Dorothy would have down the road that kind of Justice that Lawson brought to it

In the book "Valley Of The Dolls" it was obviously Ethel Merman who was the character "Helen Lawson"... It makes sense...
And Neely was Judy Garland. I am glad Judy didn't do the movie. It would have been painful and uncomfortable for Judy and the other actors.
Hillary Clinton would have been perfect as the Conniving Helen!!
this movie is like the mid sixties on amphetemines
USING MARGARET WHITING'S VOICE WAS EVEN WORSE THEN LETTING SUSAN HAYWARD DO HER OWN SINGING...WE SAW HER OWN SINGING IN I'LL CRY TOMORROW"...BAD NEWS THERE..AND I AM A BIG FAN OF SUSAN HAYWARD....
I thought she was a terrific singer in ICT. I don't understand your comment.
This was Judy’s role to loose, and she lost it! I think Susan Hayward did a good job! Had good chemistry with Patty Duke! Just like Joan Crawford getting fired from Hush,Hush Sweet Charlotte, Olivia de Havilland was the better choice!
judy really dodged a bullet on this one
Yes. I've read she hated the dialogue, "I can't say these words!" she allegedly said. Besides the way she was treated, I really think she didn't want to make this trashy movie. It was beneath her.
@@hudsony777 I agree, It really threw me for a loop when Susan Hayward was uttering all that swearing in her first scene. Never thought I would hear that kind of language outside of an X Rated film!
@@usmale49Yes, and I really like Susan's movies. Normally.
@@hudsony777 I'm with you on that! But Susan Hayward really did some very good movies...I especially like: "I'[ll Cry Tomorrow" and that argument/fight between her and Jo Van Fleet!! Very powerful, indeed!!
@@usmale49I really have to make a point of seeing that as there's a wonderful musical clip from it here on YT, but that's one of her most famous films and I've yet to see it.
Can a movie be a parody of itself?
Weird lyrics. Orchestra of 4 ? Where are the other musicians? No microphone? Flat audience reaction shots. Totally unrealistic sequence.
eurouc In the late sixties (when this film was made) nobody was miked on Broadway. Other than that defense, I find this film unwatchable today. As a teen at the time I couldn’t get enough of it. You live you grow.
Who tf wrote that song? 😩
Andre and Dory Previn
