Margaret Whiting - It Might As Well Be Spring video free download

Geoffrey Sonnen

I remember seeing this on TV! Wow, is she incredible! Her voice is like honey-to-the-ear! And another "Wow!" regarding my thoughts to how little of this kind of loveliness exists today! So much done in the name of Shock Value, and very little of true artistry, decency and grace, in my humble opinion! Margaret Whiting is the epitome of all those things!

Jay Young

One of the most beautiful musical experiences of my life happened as I awoke from a nap one afternoon to Whiting singing, "Ballad of the Sad Young Men." It was such a surreal experience!

Adelita Hinton

Did Blossom Dearie ever record this song in English?

There's nothing like a Vocalist who can sing naturally and simply! She's the best!

Sandy Mandrake

Great!

I remember seeing Nat King Cole's TV show when I was a child in Southwest Louisiana, so it wasn't "banned" in my part of the South.

Jim Steele

Not only is this a fantastic performance, it is also a marvelous statement of how show biz royalty like Miss Whiting came out to support Nat "King" Cole and his short lived TV show during the hight of the Civil Rights Era in the United States. This was no small act on her part. Sadly, the show was banned in the South.

I stand corrected! Yes I overlooked those earlier recordings that she cut with Billy Butterfield, so many thanks Stringplayer for drawing attention to that error in my description.

I love the song but there is a minor flaw in your description. Margaret Whiting's first hit record for capitol was not this but her father Richard A. Whiting's composition "My Ideal" in 1943.

John Saxon

Wow! Gorgeous voice, wonderful performance!

I'm reading her autobiography (which is titled It Might As Well Be Spring) and she wasn't a heavy drinker, or smoked at all, far as I can tell. I think her voice just lost its sweetness with time - it does happen to some.

Christophe Philippe

It was sung by the Jeanne Crain character in the film.
