Louis Armstrong - Mack The Knife download song

This is when music was music, hot diggity dog.

As a child, I adored this man! I still do!  That joyful smile could light up a room

THIS IS THE MOST ADORABLE MAN I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE

Louis Armstrong was just his own entire musical genre, wasn't he? What a great performer!

Truly one of the greatest musicians of all time anywhere in the entire universe.

Omg this was written by Bertolt Brecht, interesting to see it performed by Louis Armstrong

Oh the shark has pretty teeth dear And he shows them pearly white Just a jackknife has Macheath dear And he keeps it out of sight When the shark bites with his teeth dear Scarlet billows start to spread Fancy gloves though wears Macheath dear So there's not a trace of red On the side walk Sunday mornin' Lies a body oozing life Someone sneakin' round the corner Is that someone Mack the Knife From a tugboat by the river A cement bag's droppin' down The cement's just for the weight dear Bet'ya Mackies back in town Louie Miller disappeared dear After drawing out his cash And Macheath spends like a sailor Did our boy do something rash Suky Tawdry, Jenny Diver Polly Peachum, Lucy Brown Oh the line forms on the right dears Now that Mackies back in town Oh the shark has pretty teeth dear And he shows them pearly white Just a jackknife has Macheath dear And he keeps it out of sight Just a jackknife has Macheath dear And he keeps it out of sight

a singer, cyclcist, and trumpeter! I wonder if he continued all of his passions in the moon!

Louie Armstrong was a classic person, never changed he had that special magic few have.

Loius brought jazz to life. This is a great rendition.

The best rendition of "Mack The Knife" EVER!!!! Louis Armstrong, you were magnificent, one of kind!!!

if you can listen to this and not tap your toes, you must be dead.

I love this!! I'm 14 years old and it saddens me to see the lack of appreciation for this type of music

With all due respects to mr Sinatra and mr darin ..this is THE version of mack!

Just to point out to those calling this a cover Louis Armstrong was the first to release this as a song in it's own right (having been in the Three Penny Opera before) and he certainly sang it long before Bobby Darin or Sinatra who then covered it so due respect to the origin of the song and remember it was released in '56 so tastes and arrangements were not quite what your current taste may be.

I see why people love louis armstrong now. this voice, is win.
