Fitzgerald, Ella - How High The Moon Lyrics

John Witherpoon guest role on Fresh Prince when he was in the woods with Will and he sung part of this song so off key. Funny as hell. Lol

Fresh prince?

Hell yeah!!! From the First note.

This is from the Live at Mister Kelly's album recorded in 1958, but not released until 2007.

'Poinciana' quote at 1:34

I love the part specially when Ella goes:

_bubi yuba dibi bobay deedee bobapay_
_boyui duba didaa iiiiiii uh yaa iii yaaaa_
_tteeeeeeeeee da du dey da yiba paraa bappa_

this is going to be the battle theme for bayonetta 3, calling it now

FACE MELTING

Musicos?

MARAVILLOSA!

omg she's the diva

Elon Musk whistled this song on a video titled “A conversation with Elon Musk about the Starship” by the channel named something like Everyday Astronaut. It’s about 60 seconds in the video.

Aaron who fucking cares

@john i do, since another comment referenced it and I didn't know where it came from.

john you forgot to add “about me” at the end. Must try harder John!

@Benny Worm that's the kind of big brain insult you can only come up with by loving elon musk

Elon musk whistles

* Elon musk whistles *

@Eiad Alkhayat I watch the video all the way through and didn't hear it?

@Joseph Watts the whistle just before the interview

@Eiad Alkhayat oh gosh, that is subtle. I don't know how you recognized that!

@Joseph Watts I'm the guy that works in shazam music app

How High The Moon"

Somewhere there's music
How faint the tune
Somewhere there's heaven
How high the moon
There is no love
When love is far away too
Till it comes true
That you love me as I love you

Somewhere there's heaven
It's where you are
Somewhere there's music
How near, how far
The darkest night would shine
If you would come to me soon
Until you will, how still my heart
How high the moon

How high the moon
is the name of this song
How high the moon
Though the words may be wrong
We're singing it
Because you ask for it
So we're swinging it just for you

How high the moon
Does it touch the stars
How high the moon
Does it reach up to Mars
Though the words may be wrong
to this song
We're asking how high, high, high
high, high is the moon

That Rhapsody in Blue Gershwin quote at 4:55 holy moly

Without Ella Fitzgerald Scatman John wouldn't exist.

Simply amazing...

i'm here thanks to Scatman John

exceptional , nobody after could reach to her outstanding vocal and scat performance !

Scatman John listened to this when he was a child.

I always thought that opera is the highest art form when it comes to singing, but she makes me reconsider

My father turned me on to this in 1960. Thanks dad.

I just read a book titled after this song and I’m in LOVE

das sum gud scat

Kylas performance brought me here

That Ornithology improvisation (*-*)

How High The Moon 🌃

Best version of this song tbh. Full spirit.

02:16 Ornithology quote

Nuova Canaria Thank you for this song and thank you to my friend Rosemarie for bringing me here. xx

Shoooook!

1:30 !!!!

learning how to sing this is the equivalent of jazz nirvana

OMG ! Never heard this before. Amazing!

How the hell is she doing that? That's freaking amazing, holy shit.

Old Macdonald had a farm... 2:28. xD

You know, my favorite sport is basketball. Ella's favorite sport is QUOTING ORNITHOLOGY IN ITS FUCKING ENTIRETY IN HER SOLO. I need a new hobby ;-;

Ella was the master at scat singing.

Nice scat 👏👏

project blue book brought me here

Thumbs up is “Project Blue Book” Brought you here? 👽

Yes, it did for me.

beyond madness

Project Blue Book

Check out this singer from the Philippines named Kyla. She did a cover of it, equally masterful and amazing.

What a great range of notes and talent!!!

Kyla brought me here 👏🏼😊

kyla brought me here 🙂

すごい…！

MAGNIFICENT !!!

godess of voice

OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!

what a gift

Simon you bastard hahahahah

"The words may be wrong but you asked for it" OMFG I'm dead. That's a master of her craft saying that. Just perfect.

The jazz version is ten times more interesting the normal.

No one equals this voice. She is the best woman vocalist of her time.

Just epic..

A way back home in idaha yes I love that song

Wish the word scat didn't have that other meaning cos this kinda scat is awesome!

Horrible

MIND IS BLOWN. 🤯

Goddess.

2x speed

very chido jaja. Ella

OMG!!! Ella got it DOWN!! and that band is swinging so hard. Who is on drums?

תחזירו עוקב אם לא אני מוריד

When she scats it's like she's playing a horn! Amazing

Ist es vermessen, Al Jarreau und Roger Cicero in dieser Liga zu sehen? Diese beiden fielen mir beim Hören ein.... und keiner von ihnen ist mehr unter uns; Nachwuchs der Klasse nicht in Sicht oder nicht bekannt; vielleicht in der Jazz-Szene, die ich nicht kenne.

DIOSA DEL AMOR. ♥

What Ella had that singers don't have today, other than those pipes, are phrasing and diction. Pop music now is full of mushmouths and mumble jumbles. WTF are they talking about? And when you take a breath in the middle of a sentence (phrase), you change the meaning of the song. It's like putting the emphasis on the wrong syllable. I hate it and even the "great" singers now do it. You need more than shouting to the back row and every run imaginable to be a great singer.
