Connick, Jr., Harry - (I Could Only) Whisper Your Name Lyrics
Somebody was spreading rumors
'Bout better days a comin
Why was I hummin
As if I knew
One and the same
Somebody was sayin something
'Bout there being an end to tyranny
But when they asked me
What would I do...
If that day came
I only whispered your name
Everyone got their own opinion
And protects their own dominion
But I tell them what I really believe
My only worry is protecting you
No one should ever be lonely
We'd all find somebody to care
Ask me if I dare
To answer who...
Could carry that flame
I'd just whisper your name

Connick, Jr., Harry (I Could Only) Whisper Your Name Comments
My wife plays piano: I'd never listened to you much, Mr. Connick, until Pandora made a Harry Connick, Jr. channel for her. Good stuff but I wasn't really captured til I heard this one. I'm more of a rocker fan and this one has a Little Feat whang to it. Not surprising since Little Feat adopted New Orleans ( maybe Paul Barriere is from there..). I'm not saying who sounds like who, or which sound is more authentic N.O.: I think each one would be proud to be associated with the other! In fact it sounds like you and Bill Payne should be real good friends.
I have SHE album. its amazing & still my favorite jazz male in the 90s. o how I really lov the album. Harry, thank u for your music
My favorite HC Jr song. The 90's were my decade. So much hope and optimism. I love the line"Somebody was saying something..... about there being an end to tyranny."
So good.
♥️✌️😎👌👍
A Real Funky version probably the best
I'm in this video at 2:45 lol 😂 good times and good music! Nice Burberry! Surely can't fit that anymore ha!
Can anyone tell me what this song's about? A free like for anyone with a good explanation!
I can groove with this to JESUS, AYE,AYE,AYE YEAHHHH DOIN THA 'TWIST' TODAY'S STYLE👍😁🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎤😁👍YEAAAHHH👅😘

awesome mask song a classic loved the film and this song....way up here in montreal
Love This Song
Hadn't heard this in many, many years. Never realised before how much this sounds like it could be a Stevie Wonder song until now.
You what's weird,You know that song bounce around by Tony toni tone?
Well I can't find it anywhere, it's no where to be found, I tried checking pandora but they didn't have it,its like every trace of that song has vanished.?
Linda cancion fuerte, con mucho ritmo genial
Some great shots of the quarter in this video
I will always love this song
Love this song 😍

I remember I'm so in love with him because of this video clip I was 17 back then
I love this song
بجد والله برافو على كل اللي تقول فيديوهات المستعمله انا بتفرج عليه لغايه ما تبس طمنكم طب انا بحبك جدا و بعمل تلاقي كل كرب
Sexy, wonderful, righteous and moving! Harry rocks the jazz
how am i now older than he is in this video?
time flies!
Incredible brass arrangement that really makes this song.
The base is sloppy as shit sounding unfortunately no definition whatsoever.
I may be biased, being a south Louisiana native, but I just LOVE him!!
I've had this song in my head for a week now, and I have no idea where I heard it from,..but glad it found it on the first try!! Now I think I love it :)
This song is catchy as hell, definitely "ear-worm" material, lol! Harry is great at adding some dashes of jazz and blues into his songs... Being a New Orleans boy, he can't help it :D
It's featured in the 1994 film The Mask with Jim Carrey and Cameron Diaz.
I always loved this song. His talk show is good too. He still has so much charm.(:
Super!)))
This entire 1994 the mask movie soundtrack is awesome, this and space jam had 2 of the most timeless soundtracks of all time.
I love the way Harry embraces his wife at the end of the video. They'll be celebrating their 24th Anniversary in the next week and a half from the time I write this, which will be on April 16, 2018.
Who’s still watching this in 2018
All I can see is Darryl Lee Cullum
I had forgotten he was in that creepy movie with Sigourney Weaver.
i watch your show daily and don't like when you eat gross stuff....animals are to be treated well and not eaten
What show do u mean? What gross stuff does he eat? Just curious.
Love this video! I just can't get enough it! It's great to see people coming together and sharing a celebration.
That's New Orleans, TOTAL party town. We will throw a festival or parade for anything, lol!
Fantastic whirlwind of instrumental geniuses and Harry's talented, fine ass shaking at the same time..good god..EDIT:lmfao@the look on little old lady's face 2:25..why didn't I notice it b4???
props harry!
This song is SSSSMOKIN!
Thank you Harry Connick Jr for one of the most iconic songs of its time.
My Favorite Harry Connick Jr song! Its so hard to find! <3
I agree I LOVE this and also "She".
🎬The Mask 🎬 I never knew there was a video for this song lol I only knew it from 'The Mask' 😊💖💕 x
Same it's featured after the Who's That Man song by Xscape.
Classic film and one of my favourite movies with Jim Carrey and Cameron Diaz.
thankyou
!\
What's the time signature change during that coda where it really starts to groove. I can't begin to figure it out.
This is giving me No Doubt vibes somehow
This song is in the 1994 movie "The Mask" at the end credits the movie
Underrated soundtrack
Yup sure is. The Mask had such a jazzy 1940s vibe about it. Such an underrated film with Jim Carrey and Cameron Diaz.
@Disney65Fan It was in fact, Cameron Diaz's first movie
@karl luppold knew it
Technically it comes from his album "She"first but yeah the movie made it into a minor hit.
Jill is so unbelievably beautiful! 😳
So is her distant cousin, a wannabe model named Cindy Crawford.
My uncle is Jay Fallo, he's in this music video. He's the one in the green plaid shirt at 2:57
Whitney Fallo sweet
Thats nice! wow
nice whimsy
i dont remember this song played in the mask tbh
absolutely was not
It was played during the credits at the end of the movie
It played after the Xscape song Who's That Man at the ending credits of the film.
1:46 Since when did Hulk Hogan do music videos?
hey ure bruno mars harry héhé !!
My sweetie in my heart❤️😂
How about a revamp of this video? With all the original featured musicians and dancers!!!
The Mask!!!!!!! 1994
@Disney65Fan Have you seen my video yet?
@Alex Aceves On what?
+Disney65Fan Aladdin Vs Jafar aka Rumble in Agrabah crossover.
Never seen it. Might watch it later.
Harry Connick jr. Should've also played a role in that movie 🎥.
to me from me
Style and charism...great artist..!!!
+TheRexmoon Yeah, Harry ought to do a contemporary album continuing where he left off in this genre!
How could they not show more of the drummer.
The drummer makes this song no dopt. it don't need to be no faster.
+Michael Ali Yesa! he certainly killed it...
The First Pharoah, I always love the drummer!
The First Pharoah TV outreach program that bass line tho
Favorite music video ever!!!! I watched Dolphin Tale and Dolphin Tale 2 and now I love CMA and I want to work there. Plus I want to do trainer for a day. Anyway I saw "Dr. Clay" and I decided to dig a little deeper. Glad I did!!!!
+Savannah Romaine Good to hear! I directed that - can't believe it's over 20 years old!
That's his wife then. You should see her now. She could make a good buck being a Mama June impersonator nowadays!
😂😂😂 ur wrong for that!
awesome drummer ( Whisper Your Name )
A True New Orleans Boy! Amazing voice and man!! I've always loved him!
yep the mask, love the film and the music from it
He should've had a part in the mask also.
The mask
I luv me some Harry Connick
That was awesome! :D
He is so cute! :)
Not to mention his wife is beautiful!! Harry you are a lucky man. :-)
She may have been beautiful then, but have you seen her lately? She's aged poorly. In truth, Jill's so far over the hill that she fell off the cliff. Little wonder, Harry was slobbering over J-Lo on American Idol. Still, J-Lo fans have little to worry about. You can read on the internet how J-Lo couldn't stand him and only spoke to him through intermediaries. I take it she found him a bit creepy!
HCjr is awesome. Just knows how to rock a piano. This guy is the real deal
the last 100,000 views are people watching american idol wondering who this guy is.
Click like if you think that this is a million times better than "Blurred Lines" it's way less offensive anyhow
That has nothing to do with this song
I went to his concert in Greenville, SC & it was quite a show. He can put on one good show. This is one of those feel good songs. I am glad to see him on American Idol as judge. He knows what talent & music is about.
Wow! I Remember This Song. It Came Out in 1994.
Too bad he had to lie to the whole planet about being a native of New Orleans. Remember, Weston, Connecticut!
Who cares? Only the people who will be defrauded when they buy tickets or a CD believing they're getting a 'native' of New Orleans. Shame on him!
Where do you people keep getting that from? His father was the DA of New Orleans for decades and his mother was a judge there before she passed. The albums he recorded in his childhood were Dixieland albums with New Orleans musicians and the photos were taken there. There are countless videos of him performing there as a kid.
This defamation nonsense has to stop. It seems like it's a few creepily obsessed weirdos. Get a life.
Even regardless of where he is from, the man is a brilliant musician. Absolutely brilliant. So who the hell cares?
@Danielle Flynn So, who cares? How about the contestants on American Idol who are judged by a FRAUD. That makes the show a fraud...
+Biel2619 What are you on about? Do you even know what "native" means? He was born and raised in New Orleans, and he lives in New Canaan CT now.
I know that he's pictured in each and every one of the Weston Connecticut Public Schools yearbooks from 1970-1982. That does not make him a 'native' of New Orleans!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO HARRY CONNICK JR
More hype than quality, but still entertaining.
who can blame ya
as played in the mask
yes she's @ 0:47 2:23 2:40 3:18 3:36 and 3:46
her name is Jill Goodacre former Victoria Secret Model
you're welcome :-)
Which 1 is she...is she in this clip?
Harry's Wife damn..
I first saw Harry in concert in 1990. He was getting popuar due to the "When Harry Met Sally" movie soundtrack he did......it was an absolute joy to see hm ....he is an outstanding piano player and has never got the cedit he probably deserves.....
Bought this cd in 94, and I was 14 haha!! Its like fine wine only gets better with time!!
I remember this song at the ending credits of the movie "The Mask" with Jim Carrey
still <3 this song
Nope I see it too :)
No wonder Jill loves this man!
Wooow,summer 94' good memories
am i the only one that thinks everything about him is soooo incredibly sexy? ;) <3
Harry, you need to have Jill in more of the video. She is Gorgeous!!! I saw her at one of Harry's concerts & I couldn't stop starring at her.
197K views???
i find this offensive...
Is that HC's wife in the video?
@posae86 ya fuck yourself
@LordLiamo92 yeah, thats a bitch, but vevo keeps youtube free
@MrJaybozo don't, the sound on vevo videos is awesome...
@jameshagan75
You shouldn't compare two things that are nothing alike...
@lalbruiz
Not catching any fish with this stinky bait huh?
TREME IS EVERYWHERE HCjr IS. That's all I'm gonna say.
@conniechop Would you happen to be able to recommend any more songs like this by him? I'd really appreciate it! I've loved this song since I was a kid! Would love to hear him do some more like it!
Thanks!
They should have put this in the movie, not in the credits at the end
