I met Jim Nabors at an Indiana Pacers basket game. I was several feee from him and asked how he was feeling? He had just had a liver transplant. He told me he was feeling very well and was so appreciative I had asked and cared. What a gentle, caring person with a laid back, beautiful personality. I will never forget that moment with him. He was truly a real sweetheart.

With all the comedy work that Jim Nabors did, it's easy to forget that he was a DAMNED FINE singer as well.

THE GREATEST PERFORMANCE OF THIS INCREDIBLE SONG EVER PERFORMED!!!!!!!!!!!

for those of you only knew about Gomer Pyle Jim Nabors never got proper credit for his ability to sing ..from the heart, keep his memory alive fr his ability to sing better than many who became famous during his time. He is dead but don't let his music die

This was "Gomer Pyle's" finest moment!

Jim Nabors is an underated singer.

Gorgeous voice! The President's Own, the United States Marine Band, too! Jim Nabors (and Gomer) must have been thrilled.

The way sergeant Carter, is watching gomer, is like gomer's, singing coach and a proud father.with so much happiness. That his student/ son, is doing such an amazing job.

I had the privilege of seeing Jim Nabors in concert in Philadelphia. It was a truly awesome experience. I was in awe of his talent. God Bless Jim Nabors

His voice is AMAZING!!!!!

Beautiful!!!! I got a bit teary-eyed! R.I.P Gomer!!!! (Jim Nabors)

I haven’t heard Jim Nabors sing in a very long time. I forgot just how good he was.

Most under rated voice of all time

Soooo many versions of this song, and this is my favorite. What a voice!!!

R.I.P. Mr Nabors and thank you for all the laughs and the joy of your singing voice.

We lost Jim Nabors a little over a year. But this has been my very favorite "Gomer Pyle, USMC. RIP Jim Nabors. 6/12/30 to 11/30/2017.

Nabors really did justice to this song "Impossible Dream........" Such a rich beautiful baritone voice! He gave much pleasure to those listening. No one could sing it the same. Also a fine actor. R.I.P. Will always be loved!

He had such an amazing voice!! I could listen to this all day. He was such a talent. Gomer Pyle USMC was one of my favorite shows as a kid.

Jim Nabors absolutely killed in this scene! This song always makes me cry, but today the tears are a little more than usual.

Truly sensational...I knew he had a good voice but had no idea he was of this caliber.

He brings the house down, every time! Bravo!

The best version of this song ever. I remember seeing it when it aired for the first time. Gosh Jim was a damn fine singer! I listen to this when I get down.

Listening to Jim Nabors singing this song is so touching and feels my heart with glee. Jim Nabors was so humble, kind, loving and caring which made him a fine human being. Blessed with the talent of acting and singing which he shared with the world. I agree with the previous comment, which stated he was underrated. Jim Nabors in my book is a National Treasure. One of Alabama's beloved and honored finest stars. May he rest in peace.

Truly blessed with a beautiful voice. Such a combo Jim Nabors and the Marine band such an inspiration!!! Yes

So beautiful, I was moved to tears. I was just watching this episode on TV. But have seen this clip before. Not only was he so amusing as Gomer (part of childhood! luckily....!), he had an amazing voice and seemed like a genuinely nice person. mr Nabors, I miss you!!!! May you rest in peace.

He had such a beautiful tone that gave you chills!

I LOVE this video. Impeccable singing; an honest, sweet-hearted performance, and a kick-ASS last note. So good.

What an incredible song and an incredible man to sing it. Every time I hear Jim Nabors sing this song I cry and pray for our military.

Even when he was older his voice never aged.

What a beautiful job Jim Nabors did on a wonderful song. Very moving.

Absolutely Incredible!!! It just totally floors me! Such an Artist!!

He allows the song to speak for itself - he does not overusing or overpower it ❤

Goodbye Mr. Nabors, thanks for sharing your great gift. RIP

Mahalo Jim Nabors for your glorious vid of "The Impossible Dream," and thanks to Roy Hobbs too. Sincerely, Robert S.J. HuDecember 28, 2019.

I remember seeing this show that night, I was so blown away, and this song has always been one of my favorites. Loved Jim Nabors.

RIH Jim Nabors his was the voice of an angel everytime I hear him sing this song I get goose bumps NO ONE will ever sing this song as well as him❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Wow! What a heavenly voice!

What an incredible voice! Gave me goosebumps!

Goodbye Mr. Nabors. What a voice!

If a space alien ever lands on earth and has no idea what singing is or what a song is I hope he will listen to the song sung by Jim Nabors. This is the absolute definition of singing a song. The best!

Spectacular! RIP Mr. Nabors. We will always love you. ❤🙏

Wow! I'm back again! I love this song! It is so beautifully sung! Magnificent voice!

NOBODY can crush this song quite like Gomer!

This song inspired me to go to med school. I still watch it once a week as motivation to keep going. Thanks Jim!

'what a magnificent rendition of this song.

I can't get enough of this song! Beautiful! Breathtaking! Amazing! It never gets old!!

gives me goosebumps, I love this actor and character as well. Good work, sir.

Amazing. That rendition gave me goosebumps! Such a talent!

Why can't Hollywood produce entertainment like this anymore. No special effects no camara tricks just talent. A dazzling example of Jim Nabors' singing. Now it's all about race and getting even with the man. Give me Flip Wilson. Incredibly talented comedian who kept it real and funny but could still poke fun at authority. I weep for the future.

I remember watching this episode of Gomer Pyle, USMC. He sang a beautiful rendition of this song... RIP

Hell of a singer and comedian............

I worked for American Airlines as a Customer Service Agent. I was able to sit down and talked to Jim Nabors for a few minutes before boarding him onto the Plane , He was one of the most Interesting and Polite Passengers that I encountered in all of my years. A Real Down To Earth Gentleman

The orchestra was truly amazing just fantastic. Truly thought they did a great great job.

The emotional heavenliest too this grounds you.then tears your heart out. Makes me sad. Especially watching sergeant Carter extremely happy face.

October 1994 in San Francisco, I had the honor of being on the same street care as this great man. A memory i will always cherish.

He has a beautiful voice God has given him. Thank u Jesus for a wonderful gift u have given him.

He owned this song. No one else has ever sang this song better.

I think that man was loved more than he knew

Such a beautiful voice to come out of such a character. Comedic and vocal genius!!

I love looking at his eyes and seeing the joy of singing in them. At the end you know he's anticipating the rush that surges through your body when you hit that certain note .

He acts like a dumbbell as an actor but His singing ability shows me He could of made a living in opera for sure!!! (Oh and He is a good actor too - just always plays the dumbbell.

I love this song and he sings it the best. Awesome performance

I could listen to his voice all day.

Jim Nabors - what a phenominal voice. Few artists today can equal the range, depth and quality that artists of 40-50 ago. Moreover, today's artists are spoiled by the 'auto correct' digitial manipulation that allows them to sound perfect regardless of talent. I truely miss seeing people as talented as Jim Nabors. Sorry - but I haven't seen anyone in today's pop culture who comes close to having the talent of the performers of yesteryear.

WOW! What a voice. What a talent. God bless you. R I P

love his voice

i've listened to this so any times, its so great

Chills all over every time! I swear, the first time I saw this, I actually stood out of my chair in my own living room, without thinking! If that doesn't say how powerful this voice was, nothing does!

It still gets to me to this day. Amazing !

Jim nabors in my opinion is the best in the business. I'm a performer myself piano and vocal and I've performed all my life. Graduated Berkeley School music in Boston. When Jim nabors sings the impossible dream he certainly knocks it out of the park as they say. He hits every note precisely. His three key changes from b flat and etc is amazing. I truly respect this man and his talent is impeccable. Thank you for entertaining us. Steve Milo 🎹🙏

What a awesome.remarkable voice.

Such a beautiful voice

I can't believe that this is the same Gomer Pyle that was on the Andy Griffith TV show.

Such an inspirational song, so beautifully sung. Finding myself listening to this every day.

He had a funny way of cleaning his tonsils but the first time my brothers and I heard him sing, he floored all 3 of us. Gomer Pyle USMC was our show. Big fans.

Jim also sang Back Home in Indiana each year to open the Indianapolis 500. It was a highpoint for me.

The most incredible voice around and what a performance. love Jim Nabors. Miss Him !!

Sarge is so proud of him here

At 1:47, Sgt. Carter looks so proud.

Por Dios que cantante!!! Maravilloso.

What a magnificent baritone voice! Wow!

JIM NABORS DOES THE BEST VERSION OF THIS SONG THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM I'VE EVER HEARD IN MY LIFE NOBODY CAN TOUCH HIM IN THIS RIP JIM NABORS GOMER PYLE USMC.
