"The song sat so well in Glynis' voice that at the recording session, even though she'd never recorded a song before, she did it perfectly in one take. I've heard it sung by many fine singers (I'm happy to say), but to me her version is still the most satisfying." - Stephen Sondheim.

I mean, he did write to for her so you'd hope he liked it.

She had recorded before, for MARY POPPINS, a soundtrack album that sold millions of copies.

@@robramos1500 actually what I was thinking too, they seemed to have forgotten about her singing in Mary Poppins

Lucky to see her in 1973. Sitting in the second the row, watching to tears flow down her face. With the great Len Cariou...Frederick Egerman, Sweeney Todd.

I have been a fan of "A Little Night Music" for decades. I have the Broadway cast album with Glynis Johns as Desiree singing her signature "Send in the Clowns." We were lucky enough to see her in the revival in L.A. when she played the role of Desiree's mother, Madam Armfelt.......Thank you, Glynis, for all the years of film, theater, and TV, where you used your "highest sense of intelligence", as you said. Well done, after 100 years of life! 👏 Safe journey back home. ♥

What a wonderful video! I saw the original production and thought it was enchanting at the time. Johns and Cariou were both perfect for their roles, and this still remains my favorite production opf the work.

No one does this song like Glynis johns. How did you get this. Bernadette was great as well, though the production was nowhere as good as the original. And Len cariou. How wonderful. He was wonderful with Lansbury as well in Sweeney Todd.

Holy shit! The man Stephen Sondheim said it himself. I absolutely hate this stupid "non-hummable critique" people utter. It's the same stupid "memorable" thing that people kept talking about. I can hum the entirety of the rite of spring, because I've listened to it a bunch. People say something isn't memorable like it's a measure of quality when it actually just means they don't know the music. Nothing more nothing less
