Wonder if she ever actually got to dance cheek to cheek with Sheriff Clark?

Check out this Gap commercial from 1997. She was 80 years old and still looking great and singing like a bird.

Wow, I've heard probably a hundred versions of that song, and this is without a doubt the worst of the bunch.

came here to say this ... i haven't seen her in some years now, maybe 10 or so, but she was way hittable into her 70s ... a stunning woman ...

and then she would sing ... one of the few singers who always give me chills

/style: she has it

Lena Horne is proof that there is a God.

Nice.

Back when she'd still sing the melody.

Never understood why so many singers left that behind.

"You can snuggle up on cold nights for the rest of your life with a white, white woman, or a black, black woman.

The white woman is Kate Smith; the black woman is Lena Horne."
