I keep coming back here....My soul's been captivated by this unparalleled beauty of his music...forever.

Michel Legrand is the Mozart of our time...awesome talent...Great Master...

This wonderful song is a timeless classic. Merci Monsieur Legrand.

this man is a national treasure to the french and rightly so, im only sixteen yet his music moves in, he is a legend and has earnt all of his fame and fortune.

Imagine writing something that good?!!! Pure genius. Sends chills down my spine.

Rest in Peace, thank you for your gift of music

Absolutely astounding !!

I shall never tire of this wonderful, wonderful voice song music of Michel le Grand who has to be one of the best ever composers musicians who exudes style elegance and a charisma no one can ever touch!

Michel jak dobrze Cie słyszeć ....emocije oj emocje .😂😢

R, I, p MICHEL. MERCI MON AMI

believe it or not I was a kid when I first saw michel legrand interviewed by mike douglas ... totally changed me musically for the rest of my life... pure genius.... my favorite composer

Thank You, Michel!

Rest in peace Michel.. Thanks for all those sweet melodies.

Feel like flying in a sailplane high above in the peaceful clear blue skies.. Fabulous theme..immortal song...french or english...

Miss him so much! Such a wonderful composer and musician! So warm and full of character! A really lovely man! He took the trouble to answer one of my emails to him too and I was immensely touched! x

This is so touching.....It's just absolutely sublime.

Beautiful!

Beautiful song! I also love " Les Parapluies de Cherbourg" (The Umbrellas of Cherbourg).

Divine music...indescrihable beauty. Thank you for sharing this! Warm greetings from Vienna Monique

one of the great composers always remember his summer 42

Greatness seeks its own level. Here, the lyricists Alan and Marilyn Bergman send our minds spinning as we follow along, and they also collaborated on the music with Michel Legrand. Academy Awards were very much deserved for this outstanding achievement. The song is perfect.

MAESTRO MICHEL LEGRAND..THANKS FOR YOUR GREAT COMPOSITION..THANKS FOR SHARING THIS VIDEO..

What spell binding playing! How can anyone not be sent to another world whilst listening!

Rip legend 🙏❤

Thankyou Michel. Genius.

Such a beautiful song!!🥰💖

Quel agréable moment de vous entendre, plus Belle Mélodie que je n'ai jamais autant aimée et les paroles fabuleuses. Merci

Thank god for this in life

Noel Harrison is the one who sings the theme in the '68 film, but many have recorded. I don't think Legrand has ever composed anything less than beautiful. Thank you "redsong" for finding and posting.

Superb! Merci beaucoup j'adore!

so beautiful makes me cry

Divine music....Indescrihable beauty..Thousand thanks for sharing this!

Beautiful song and playing piano, i really love it

EXTRAOOOOORDINARIO !!!

fantastique...le genie ...Legrand

SUPER!!!!!

Bravo maestro !! Гениально !!

Beautiful in french :), i have only ever heard this song in English. When it was the sound track from the 'Thomas Crown Affair' in 1968. Simply beautiful :) :)

o,how Lovely, how Sad and How French-a Really Beautiful song about Le Vivre Sentimental!

GRAN MAESTRO MICHEL LEGRAND. LO RECUERDO EN EL FESTIVAL DE JAZZ DE LA HABANA. GRAN MUSICALIDAD Y TALENTO.

😍😏😌😌 R.I. P 🙏OUR FRENCH LEGEND 😧

My most beloved performance.. Sublime .....

I can't stop singing it

This is heavenly!

amazing

I love the understated voices of the composers and the tools they have to work with. Burt Bacharach singing "Alfie" BLVD PROD. couldn't be any better - and Michel can do no wrong. These songs are beautifully inspired. Fantastic works from the living composers give us something to grow from. Show the youngsters - they know very little. . . Green Day and Oasis. Here is something they can feel deeply. This comes from the heart and it is handed to you to recognize.

wow! stunning!!

Splendid version of his own music.

The correct title for this version of the song is "Les Moulins de mon cœur" (The Windmills of my Heart). Music by Michel LeGrand. French lyrics by Eddie Marnay - not the same as the original English lyrics by Alan and Marilyn Bergman.

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!TFS

If anyone finds an interpretation that comes even close to the genius in this one - and I'm not even asking for something superior - please do tell. I haven't yet.

Qué belleza!

I wouldn't agree that the lyrics are anything special, however, the song is beautiful. And, in my opinion, one of the greatest songs of all time. The Noel Harrison version is my favourite, but this is still very nice.

The greatest in the video (except of the music) are the faces of the people listening to the music...

thank you for this video !

Love it!

Full of emotions

Un de mes compositeurs préférés !! ce type est un génie !!

BRAVO!

¡¡Simplemente bello!!

Such a talent

beautiful

Beautiful

that's from his visit to Israel. The audience doesn't know french but his passion is clearly affecting everybody

Awesome

of course he wrote it--give the man credit.

creative!

Magnífico!

Vraiment excellent

wow

no, his intonations are so delicate and beautiful!!...and he sounds and looks perfectly and without a lot of colours clothes:) In any case he looks much better than those sated faces (on video).

He wrote songs the whole world could understand

Respect.

Where can I find this video (to buy)? He's amazing...simply amazing!

@2:13 though!! haha Besides that I don't speak french but I moved by his words. Absolutely amazing!!! #FatherOfBeachHouse

@Toracube I totally agree, his performance does something bizarre to my brain an amazing talent!

And when you think it's not one of his best interpretations. All the same, his music, the lyrics are pure beauty. Try the interpretations of Danny Brillant and Frida Boccara, awesome too! and enjoy!

👍👍👍👍❤💋

vi la pelicula en 1975 y ley el libro años despues

@Figaro48 YES!!!! Wolfgang is THE musical genius, one of a kind, none other like him. A quote from M. Davenport's biography when relating the trip to Prague with Constanze: "Sometimes he would sit up very straight and his pale face would redden. Then Constanze knew he was composing." Not even a need for a keyboard. And then he would simply have it memorized and cast a few notes on a piece of paper, which he did not even need later. Not that it makes Legrand less of a composer.

Not bad! a nice endition.

catch me in the windmill

@Toracube He's the composer, he didn't write it =) But it was composed well, indeed.

I will never sing desame after hearing his interpretation of this song.

Omlette du fromage. I'm practicing all the time: "Hey! Omlette du fromage!

awesome , but the aspect ratio is wrong : please correct svp

what is the source of this footage?

What's wrong with aspect ratio?

aspect ratio??

What's the show?

@smalltimer666 Michel Legrand certainly wrote the music to this song, buddy, but maybe you mean something else by that comment.

@TheSara2803 Charles Aznavour IS Armenian!

Michel Le Grand wrote this popular song but the composer of the music is MOZART. The melody comes from the Andante Movement of his Sinfonia Concertante. Yes, indeed he was a genius.

@dakotahorvath You sir, need to go and listen to some Shostakovich.

Wonderfull music but he should leave the singing to others.

no--not even close.

why isnt he wearing a black beret, and a blue and white T shirt and garlic and herbs around his neck,.............................................ps alison moyet sings it 1000000000000000000000000000000000.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000.000000000000000000000000000000000.5 times better!
