she really performs the heck outta this song. she knew how to sell it. not just a pretty voice. a phenomenal singing actress!

Rosemary Clooney was an excellent actress. She didn't just sing her songs, she acted them out and was an outstanding song interpreter with outstanding stage presence.

Rosemary is having a ball singing this little gem and it shows in every second of this performance. Ah….these were the days when the best singers sang the best songs with great musical arrangements. All done without the technology needed today to make a lousy singer sound brilliantly good. Talent was all you needed and if you looked good too it helped. But Rosemary bounced along with her happy smile and saucy grin and she had a screen presence like no other. Class wins every time 🇬🇧🇺🇸❤️

Love it! .... Props to Mad Men for finding this jem!

I love her facial expressions and hand and arm gestures, she has real showmanship and it seems like she was having fun with it.

Great voice! Lovely lady!

The family resemblance between Rosemary and George Clooney is strong.

Such an ease in singing. I was honored to see her live in SanFrancisco in 1999 with Michael Feinstein on piano. Still had it then.

Mad Men(Season 1 Episode 7) :3 :P

man, I was born 50 years too late, lmao. she is VERY cute!

I love her - she is arch AND flirtatious at the same time ;)

My 8 month old loves this song 😍

I remembered my Mom she was born on February 1934 and she told me before this song of Rosemary was hits in Philippines in 1950’s

Class personified!

Great Rosemary!

her dress is beautiful....I totally want it!!

God I love this woman.

Not bad for an Irish lassie now is it? lol it amazes me how she sang so many Italian themed songs... and of course did a bang up job!

Naturalidad y control del tempo. Extraordinaria actriz-cantante o cantante actriz. Que forma de expresar la letra de la canción. Que swing !!! una canción rítmica donde la propia letra marca el ritmo y ella adelantando y retrasando el tiempo. Parece fácil pero hay que tener mucho talento y control. Es la mejor versión que he escuchado y su lenguaje gestual es la guinda a una actuación para enmarcar.

She's adorable

I think im in love

Veramente eccezionale....

Es genial y su discografía también. Energía positiva.

favorite of my mother

Oy vey that dress!!!!! Exhibit A: if you want to know how a 1950s dress should be worn turn to Ms Clooney! She was just stunning. Thank you for sharing this! I want that dress!!!!

Such a talented vocalist she was

mad men brought me here

Fantastic singer

Who else is here from 'The Royal Treatment'? It's such a vibe, I just had to come find it.😍🔥

Botchamania!

@shannina91 it was marketed as "botch-a-me" because an early fifties american market wouldnt know how the hell to pronounce "baciami"

@skywize seriously me too! haha i swear when i listen to her songs, it's like she's smiling AS she recorded them! like, i HEAR her smile ... for me, she's the only artist who does that!!!!!

Does anyone have the Mad Men version of this song? I'd really appreciate it!!!!

She's too cute!!!!!!!! =D

yes (:

GILMORE GIRLS 💕

Mad men send me here ! ^^

This would be in my top ten if I were to have to pick a theme song

They were playing name-that-tune on an old radio program "You Bet Your Life" with Groucho Marx. This song was played as a clip-- and they recognized it. Me, I had to figure out the questionably English title, but got me here. Jerry Fielding's orchestra did a great job!

Botchamania

😊

Her Wikipedia says she wasn't Italian at all. This shocked me.

I come from Mad Men S01E07

She looks like she has some meat on her to me, but less than in the 1960s, and especially the 1980s and 1990s. Her stage presence was as good as any singer.

Brilliant. Very strange but brilliant. Turns out one of her songs was number 1 on the day of my birth. Well there you go......

I really like her, it’s a pity that she no longer has dreams

Bee-oo, bye-oh, bee-oo, boo When you botch-a-me, I a-botcha you ("C'mon a-you, kissa me, eh?!!") Bah-bah, botch-a-me, bambino Bah-bah-bo, bo, boca piccolino And then we will raise a great big family Tra la la la la la la la la Bee-oo, bye-oh, bee-oo, boo Botch-a-me, bambino, botch-a-me ("That's nice!!")

lol "botch-a-me" - Love the spelling

George resembles her around the eyes

Gilmore girls brought me here

Baciami piccolino-bambino (kiss me baby) It's italian ward

That part when she says "come on a you kiss a me eh?"

Mad Men

I wish Sheridan Smith could play Rosemary Clooney in a biopic.. Very similar mannerisms..

i don't understand nothing.. but i i give you a thumb up!

Bah-bah, botch-a-me, bambino Bah-bah-bo, bo, boca piccolino And then we will raise a great big family Tra la la la la la la la la lee Botch-a-me, I'll-botcha you and ev'rything goes crazy Bah-bah, botch-a-me, my baby Bah-bah-bo, bo, just say "Yes" and maybe If-a you squeeze me and I'm a-squeeza you Tra la la la la la la la la loo Bee-oo, bye-oh, bee-oo, boo Won't you botch-a, botch-a-me? ("Kiss me!!")

Gilmore girls❤️❤️

Botch-a-me, I'll-botcha you and ev'rything goes crazy Bah-bah, botch-a-me, bambino Bah-bah-bo, bo, boca piccolino When you kiss me and I'm a-kissa you Tra la la la la la la la la loo Bah-bah, botch-a-me, my baby Bah-bah-bo, bo, just say "Yes" and maybe If-a you squeeze me and I'm a-squeeza you Tra la la la la la la la la loo Bee-oo, bye-oh, bee-oo, boo Won't you botch-a-, botch-a-me?

Vatcha-me I watch a you;)

Common a you watch a me eh?

I love Rosemary Clooney! Question: Does she look unusually thin in this clip? I guess I'm just a little partial to "Pleasantly-Curvy Rosemary Clooney" e.g. "White Christmas"...only my favorite movie of all time!!!

so beautiful..now a days s just make up...but shes a god

BOTCHAMANIA

Strong family genes, George Clooney actually favors her.

OMG! She looks just like his nephew with a blonde wig on! BTW it's BACIAMI (kiss me) not Botch-a-me!

@R8dRLegendKilla YES YES YES YES YESYESYES (/Heenan)

@GrievousGeorge STING, THE EXTREMELY WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION EXTREMELY

What does "Botch-A-Me" mean?

I was a young (4 years old) pup when she recorded this!

Notice there are no Italians anywhere crying about racism or cultural appropriation

thumbs up if fakin maffew sent u here!

Got this song on a stone plate , but in bad conditions , did to match played ..but appart .

Hex.... Hex.... Hex.... Hex.... Hex.... Hex...

It almost sounds like "Watcha me I Watcha you"

It's "Baciami", not "Botch -A-me"

Almost took it to be Ella Fitzgerald from the sound of it.
