Rosemary Clooney - Tenderly - 1952
"Tenderly" is a Pop standard published in 1946 with music by Walter Lloyd Gross (1909-1967) and lyrics by Jack Lawrence. "Tenderly" has been recorded by many famous artists, but possibly the best-known version is by Rosemary Clooney. Her recorded version reached only #17 on the Billboard magazine pop charts in early 1952, but is more popular than the chart data would suggest, as is evidenced by the fact that Tenderly served as the theme song for Clooney's 1956-1957 TV variety show. It also became her signature song. I consciously came to know of the song in the late 1970's while watching a Bing Crosby Special; Rosemary, a guest star on the show, sang it and it just took my breath away; I immediately realized that I had heard the song before, and it brought vivid memories of my childhood and my mother. It is because of this that I made this video - A way to pay tribute to this great artist, song and to the beautiful memory of my late mother. It is to her that I dedicate this song and I know she watches from a better place.

Rosemary Clooney - Mambo Italiano
Rosemary Clooney - Mambo Italiano Rosemary Clooney (May 23, 1928 -- June 29, 2002) was an American singer and actress. She came to prominence in the early 1950s with the novelty hit "Come On-a My House" written by William Saroyan and his cousin Ross Bagdasarian (David Seville), which was followed by other pop numbers such as "Botch-a-Me" (a cover version of the Italian song Ba-Ba-Baciami Piccina by Alberto Rabagliati), "Mambo Italiano", "Tenderly", "Half as Much", "Hey There" and "This Ole House", though she would go on to success as a jazz vocalist. Clooney's career languished in the 1960s, partly due to problems related to depression and drug addiction, but revived in 1974, when her White Christmas co-star Bing Crosby asked her to appear with him at a show marking his 50th anniversary in show business. She continued recording until her death in 2002. "Mambo Italiano" is a popular song written by Bob Merrill in 1954 and recorded by Rosemary Clooney. Merrill actually wrote it on deadline, scribbled hastily on a paper napkin in an Italian restaurant in New York, United States using the wall pay-phone to dictate the melody, rhythm and lyrics to the recording studio pianist, under the aegis of conductor Mitch Miller. The song became a hit for Rosemary, reaching #10 on the charts in the United States and number one in the UK Singles Chart early in 1955. The original record was produced by Mitch Miller. The 1988 Jonathan Demme film, Married to the Mob, featured Clooney's <b>...</b>
Rosemary Clooney - Come On-A My House (Original)
"Come On-A My House" has an interesting history. The song was composed in 1939 by Armenian-born author and playwright William Saroyan and his cousin Ross Bagdasarian (David Seville of Alvin & Chipmunks fame). The melody is based on an old Armenian folk song and the subject matter of the song touches on gracious Armenian customs. Rosemary Clooney hated the song and when first approached with it by Columbia Records producer, Mitch MIller, she refused to record it. Mitch told her to either sing it or leave Columbia so she decided to go on with it. However, as Rosemary recounted years later, "you can hear the anger in my voice as I'm singing it". "Come On-A My House" ended up being one of the biggest hits of 1951, and a song by which Rosemary has always been identified.

Rosemary Clooney sings Gershwin - LIVE!
The great ''girl singer'', Rosemary Clooney (1928-2002), sings two classics from the songs of George & Ira Gershwin. Carnegie Hall, December, 1997. 1. "A Foggy Day" from the 1937 film "A Damsel in Distress" 2. "Our Love Is Here to Stay" from the 1938 film "The Goldwyn Follies" It is said that the Gershwin brothers took less than an hour to compose "A Foggy Day". "I was a stranger in the city Out of town were the people I knew I had that feeling of self-pity What to do? What to do? What to do? The outlook was decidedly blue But as I walked through the foggy streets alone It turned out to be the luckiest day I've known CHORUS A foggy day in London Town Had me low and had me down I viewed the morning with alarm The British Museum had lost its charm How long, I wondered, could this thing last? But the age of miracles hadn't passed, For, suddenly, I saw you there And through foggy London Town The sun was shining everywhere." Though it was written for "The Goldyn Follies" (1938), "Our Love Is Here to Stay" is probably best remembered from the 1951 film "An American in Paris". "It's very clear Our love is here to stay ; Not for a year But ever and a day. The radio and the telephone And the movies that we know May just be passing fancies, And in time may go ! But, oh my dear, Our love is here to stay. Together we're Going a long, long way In time the Rockies may tumble, Gibralter may crumble, They're only made of clay, But our love is here to stay."
Rosemary Clooney - Sway
When marimba rhythms start to play Dance with me Make me sway Like the lazy ocean hugs the shore Hold me close Sway me more Like a flower bending in the breeze Bend with me Sway with ease When we dance you have a way with me Stay with me Sway with me Other dancers may be on the floor Dear, but my eyes will see only you Only you have that magic technique When we sway I grow weak I can hear the sound of violins Long before It begins Make me thrill as only you know how Sway me smooth Sway me now Quien sera el que me quiere a mi Quien sera Quien sera Quien sera el que me de su amor Quien sera Quien sera I can hear the sound of violins Long before It begins Make me thrill as only you know how Sway me smooth Sway me now Sway me smooth, Sway me now!

She was most popular singing Traditional Pop music in the 1940's and 50's with songs like "Come On-a My House".
