"My Fair Lady"- "Show Me" Audrey Hepburn singing (1964)

choggie says...

Marnie's one of the unsung heros of the silver screen, saving our collective ears from the aural rape, of an otherwise memorable song, delivered by someone who can act, much better than they think they can sing....LLLALLLAALA!

somebody post one of the tunes from "Cry Baby" that would be cooooool!

"My Fair Lady"- "Show Me" Audrey Hepburn singing (1964)

Really is Hepburn? Excellent! I'm certainly willing to stand corrected.

The only reason I know about Marni Nixon is I heard her being interviewed on CBC radio this past Tuesday. Fresh in my mind, don't you know. While this particular clip may indeed be Hepburn, I think Nixon does deserve a bit of recognition, she's been hiding in the shadows all this time.

Definitely NOT Audrey Hepburn singing. Audrey Hepburn was a superb actress, and one of the most beautiful women, perhaps ever, but she had a notorious tin ear and limited singing range. If you really want to hear her singing, listen to "Moon River" from Breakfast at Tiffany's. Blake Edwards wrote that song specially for her, and kept the range to basically one octave.

The singer you hear here is Ms. Marni Nixon, see her IMDB entry here... http://imdb.com/name/nm0633262/.

Ms. Nixon, in addition to providing the singing voice for Audrey Hepburn, also did so for Natalie Wood in "Westside Story", and for Deborah Kerr in "The King and I".

Have to correct the record here, for so-called "Ghost Singers" like Marni Nixon never received the credit they deserved onscreen. In fact, their contracts usually contained a non-disclosure clause with severe penalties in perpetuity.
