From "General Electric Theatre", telecast live from Hollywood on April 9, 1956. Joe Bushkin is at the piano. Garland sings "Last Night When We Were Young", music by Harold Arlen, lyrics by E.Y. Harburg.

Trivia item: This song was recorded and filmed as a number for Garland's 1949 film "In the Good Old Summertime", costarring Van Johnson. The song was deemed too melancholy for the otherwise upbeat, happy musical and was cut. The excised musical number survives in its entirety today and was included as bonus material in some deluxe VHS releases of "That's Entertainment, Part III" and some DVD versions of the film.

If I'm not mistaken she had a head cold and sore throat the night of this performance. If that is the case. she is incredible! I agree the record version is superior. It's the recording Tony Bennett quoted to be the best recorded song he ever heard. But if she had a cold, she did just fine here. There is no one who comes close to her talent. I love her.

+Garyb3397 Sometimes history influences the way we hear a tune. Harold Arlen thought that Last Night...was his greatest melody; ditto for Yip Harburgh on the lyric. It was written for Judy but considered too melancholy to be included in In the Good Old Summertime. But the momento mori in the tune caught up with Judy, as did drugs and other personal pitfalls so that the lyric becomes all about her. Even her being in less than best voice, undescores the world weariness in the words.

She looks so good when she isn't skinny. She's Irish. Irish women can be voluptuous and it looks good. She has the same build as my mom, who's "black Irish" too.

THIS is how her makeup should've been in "A Star is Born." She would've looked so much better. Yes, she looks lovely here - almost as if to recapture her MGM look. I don't agree that she's in good voice here, though. Listen to her Capitol recording, or better yet, her MGM take from 1948. Both are superior to this.
