Sing to Me, Mr C.

Today would have been Perry Como's 95th birthday. He was often made fun of for his laid back style. The fact is, he was so talented that it came easy. He could take any song & make it his own. I have many happy memories of watching him on TV with my Grandpa. & it wasn't Christmas without his annual special. He died 6 years ago.Here are a couple of my favorites (Believe me, it was difficult to pick just a few) & an appearance on Il Musichiere, a popular Italiano TV program in the 50s:

Chincherinchee

Seattle (Theme from Here Come The Brides)

Delaware

O Marie (Il Musichiere)

& probably my all time favorite Perry Como recording (This is a live performance from 1994):

Ave Maria

Felice Compleanno Paisano!!!!!

Pierino Roland Como
