DAVID: In the history of popular music, no singing duo enjoyed a longer or more acclaimed career than that of the Grammy and Emmy Award-winning Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gormé.

I should know, they're my parents.

From the 1950s into the 2000s, my mom and dad were a dominant force and regular presence on records, radio, concert stages, Broadway and television.

They entertained generations of enthralled listeners with their incredible voices and their dazzling showmanship.

Hi, I'm David Lawrence, and I'm so proud and honored to be hosting this My Music special, a tribute to the extraordinary artistic legacy of my mom and dad, Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gormé.

Steve certainly would have become more iconic as a solo male singer had he chosen that path because he was naturally gifted from the get go.

Steve is somebody who should be remembered not only as a great singer, but also as a person who had the ability to uplift all of us in a way that came from his understanding of the human condition.

Anybody that has that much humor in their life is somebody who understands the tragedy and the joys of life.

Eydie- Eydie is somebody who had this stratospheric voice.

You know, people talk about Yma Sumac who had five octaves or Cleo Laine, but Eydie had this- this ability to sing in any number of different ranges and in any number of different styles.

And of course, that was immediately evident in her early success with the song "I'll Take Romance," where suddenly at the end of it, she's going to the stratosphere.

But she never did it to show off.

She did it because it works in the context of what she was singing.

And that's the other important thing, is that when you have a certain kind of ability where you can do all of this and you do this much or this much, and then you show that part when it works for the material, that's another sign of a great artist.

DAVID: From the very start, my parents sang the very best songs from the greatest composers of Tin Pan Alley.

And in the 1970s, they headlined a series of acclaimed television specials centered on the music of Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, and the Gershwins, winning my mom and dad three Emmys in the process.

Here's my mom with the gorgeous George Gershwin and Ira Gershwin standard, "The Man I Love."

♪ Someday he'll come along ♪ ♪ The man I love ♪ ♪ And he'll be big and strong ♪ ♪ The man I love ♪ ♪ And when he comes my way ♪ ♪ I'll do my best ♪ ♪ To make him stay ♪ ♪ ♪ He'll look at me and smile ♪ ♪ I'll understand ♪ ♪ And in a little while ♪ ♪ He'll hold my hand ♪ ♪ And though it seems absurd ♪ ♪ I know we both ♪ ♪ Won't say a word ♪ ♪ Maybe I will meet him Sunday ♪ ♪ Maybe Monday, maybe not ♪ ♪ But I know I'll meet him one day ♪ ♪ Maybe Tuesday ♪ ♪ Will be my good news day ♪ ♪ He'll build a little home ♪ ♪ Just meant for two ♪ ♪ From which I'll never roam ♪ ♪ Who would, would you ♪ ♪ And so, all else above ♪ ♪ I'm waiting for ♪ ♪ The man I love ♪ ♪ Maybe I will meet him one day ♪ ♪ Maybe Sunday, maybe not ♪ ♪ But I know I'll meet him one day ♪ ♪ Maybe Tuesday will be ♪ ♪ My good news day ♪ ♪ We'll build a little home ♪ ♪ Just meant for two ♪ ♪ From which I'd never roam ♪ ♪ Who would, would you ♪ ♪ And so, all else above ♪ ♪ I'm waiting for ♪ ♪ The man I love ♪ ♪ The man I love ♪ ♪ The man I love ♪ ♪ The man I love ♪ ♪ The man I love ♪ DAVID: Across the decades, generations of fans welcomed Steve and Eydie into their living rooms on television.

TV played such an important part in my parents' career from the very beginning.

They were everywhere, performing on talk shows, specials.

Plus they also appeared as solo artists on the big music variety programs.

In fact, in 1965, my dad starred in his very own CBS TV series.

STEVE: I want to travel.

A lot of places I want to see.

♪ ♪ Those faraway places with strange sounding names ♪ CAROL: The first time I met and worked with Steve was 1957, and he and Dan Dailey and I and Chita Rivera were in a sketch or a scene.

Dan Daly, who was a movie star at that time, and Steve would pick me up to go to the set.

And- every morning when we were rehearsing- and so I just got to know Stevie sitting in the back of the limo and talking and kidding around.

And I think that was just before he and Eydie got married.

I'm not sure, but I think so.

I don't- they might have been engaged, but that's when I first met Steve, and even then, he was funny in the car.

You know, he- he was a raconteur.

He could tell stories.

Oh, my God, he was so funny.

I loved him.

DAVID: Although my parents are best known for their devotion to songs of the Great American Songbook, they also recorded a number of contemporary songs that became hits, including my mom's "Tonight, I'll Say a Prayer."

I have so many fond memories of my dear friends and what better place to share their story than right here on public television.

Thank you.

MICHAEL: Watching all of these performances really takes you back.

You can practically feel the couch you used to sit on with your dad and- and smell the dinner your mom used to make.

And even today you watch Steve and Eydie, and that same smile from so long ago breaks out on your face.

You used to look at them and- and just know in your heart that the love they felt for each other was real.

You knew it would last.

And time has proven you right.

It's so special that public television is bringing these cherished memories back for us.

25 years in the making, putting this show together.

Thanks to David Lawrence and sharing his memories of his mom and his dad, and all the great music they've brought to us in our lives.

And how many times in your life have you had that same smile when you've heard some of the great songs?

Maybe you started out in the fifties with things like "Pretty Blue Eyes," "Great Little Cha Cha," and of course, "Footsteps," another classic from Steve in the early days.

And then as you got older, as you grew a little older, a little more experienced, that's when we get into the "More's" and things like "Portrait of My Love" and all these sophisticated sounds, unbelievable.

And having this on this collection, I can tell you, I've been waiting for years to have one collection with all the great songs from Steve Lawrence, Eydie Gormé, and Steve and Eydie together.

Here's TJ Lubinsky with Steve and Eydie's son, David Lawrence.

TJ: So excited to be with this man joining us right now.

For years, 25 years, I've tried to be able to present a My Music special with one of my favorite singers of all time, Steve Lawrence, and of course, the great Steve and Eydie, and the mom and dad to our guest, David Lawrence.

David, thank you for being here with us.

DAVID: It's a pleasure.

TJ: This- This is so special for us.

What was it like growing up in this crazy household with your parents?

I mean, it must've been like going to the Catskills.

DAVID: Well, it was mostly good craziness.

The bad craziness usually was right before a recording session or an opening of a Broadway show they had to be in.

So the tensions were high, but other than that, it was a rampant shtick, rampant singing and friends coming in and out.

You know, famous friends, that's- they all were friends.

And so Peter Sellers would come in and Sammy Davis would come in and Frank Sinatra would come in and would be singing, and the orchestrators would be at the piano.

And it's sort of like what you see in these old Judy Garland movies was just like, you know, growing up, that's what it was.

TJ: But David, you know those teen records, we loved them so much.

1950s, your father's like a teen idol.

He comes out and he starts singing these songs, "Footsteps," "Pretty Blue Eyes."

And of course, everybody loves "Go Away Little Girl."

DAVID: You know, my dad was, in- in a lot of ways, a transitional sort of performer because he was still in- in a sort of crooning era, but was able to sing certain types of records in that sort of transitional period where they could start doing songs like "Poinciana" and "Pretty Blue Eyes" and "Go Away Little Girl" and also come back with, you know, "The Two of Us," and "Darn it, Baby" and "Honeymoon is Over."

And it's really thrilling for me to sort of hear that multi- sort of gifted ability of my dad to be able to sort of position his voice in a more of a pop arena and then turn around and swing like nobody's business.

So for me, I still- I look back at it having not been in it in the moment, but the appreciation that I have for what he was able to do and then turn around and just be this unbelievable baritone is what I find most impressive.

He's just versatile.

GARRY: The one called "Blame It on the Bossa Nova," has been nominated as the best vocal record of the year.

Would you- would you like to sing that for us?

(audience clapping) EYDIE: Oh, thank you.

GARRY: She does.

EYDIE: Thank you very much.

I don't really think it's gonna win, but this will gimme another chance to sing it one more time.

(Garry laughs) Except that, Garry, there's just one catch.

GARRY: What's that?

EYDIE: I sing that song with a vocal group most of the time.

GARRY: Oh, well in that case, I guess we can't do it 'cause the group- EYDIE: Hey, Garry, I've got a very good idea, though.

GARRY: What?

EYDIE: You can be my vocal group.

GARRY: Eydie, no, wait, wait, wait.

Wait, wait.

EYDIE: No, really.

GARRY: I- I may have put on a pound or two, but I'm not a group.

Not yet.

No.

Certainly I can read it.

I'll take the lamb chops.

EYDIE: You can't read- GARRY: No.

EYDIE: Chorus.

GARRY: Right where it says chorus?

EYDIE: Yeah.

GARRY: All right, I'll- EYDIE: And then you just count the bars.

(audience laughs) GARRY: (laughs) Only bars I count they got the big neon signs up.

It says the China Song (Eydie laughs) right out on the- (audience laughs) EYDIE: Not that.

No.

GARRY: No?

EYDIE: You just follow the music- GARRY: And count the bars.

EYDIE: You know, like, one and two and it's, okay, can we get started?

DAVID: After performing as a singing duo on television and records for a few years, in 1957, my parents married in Las Vegas.

They were both from New York.

My father was born in Brooklyn and my mother in the Bronx.

Music was a major tradition for both of their families, and it's fitting that one of their favorite duets was the beautiful wedding song from the Broadway musical, Fiddler on the Roof.

Here's "Sunrise, Sunset."

And not only- you know, a lot of variety shows at that time, they would have musical guests and the musical guest would do the- their number and maybe be in a finale or something.

But I always loved to put our musical guests or our dancers guests or any- in sketches, because a lot of times they never got the chance to do that.

So knowing how funny Steve was anyway, we put him in a- a sketch and he nailed it.

STEVE: You got a plan?

CAROL: Oh yeah, sure, sure.

I got a plan.

(audience laughs) STEVE: Hey... CAROL: What I think we outta do... STEVE: Wait, no, don't give me none of your lip.

(audience laughs) CAROL: I'm just tryin' to tell ya what I think we outta do.

STEVE: Well, let me hear.

Just tell me.

CAROL: I'm trying to tell ya.

Will ya listen to me?

STEVE: Talk to me.

Tell me what the plan is.

CAROL: I'm trying to.

STEVE: Then, here, talk here, I can't hear there.

Talk here.

(audience laughs) CAROL: He absolutely nailed it.

He was actually as funny as he was musical.

Now that is saying something.

In fact, when we went into syndication years later, they cut the show down from the hour show to half hour where they cut all the music out.

And it was just a half hour of the sketches.

So it was in syndication.

And I remember because Steve- we put him in all these sketches and he was so good, he told me that he and Eydie were at an airport one day and these teenage girls ran up to him, not having s- seen the full hour, but only the half hour, And they said, "You're that funny guy on the Burnett Show."

They had no idea that he could sing.

DAVID: As a balladeer who captured and melted many hearts, I give you one of my dad's signature love songs.

They started in nightclubs, Of course they were on television and they became ubiquitous on television, apart and then together.

And what they did was take a nightclub act, and it grew and grew and grew as more and more people wanted to see what they did.

And so they had this feeling that they gave the audience that you were sitting in the living room.

You were sort of listening in on what they were doing.

It was- it was a casual thing in the sense that you felt like you were a fly on the wall when they would engage in their- in their banter and the jokes and the dynamics that they had with each other.

It was fantastic because everybody could relate to what they did.

DAVID: With hundreds of television appearances between them, individually and together, there are so many cherished musical moments of my parents to enjoy.

A classic is the following song, which gave them a chance to be the playful entertainers that audiences loved, and the mom and dad I knew when the cameras weren't rolling.

From their Grammy-winning album, "We Got Us," here's "Darn It Baby, That's Love."

EYDIE: Do you remember our first date?

STEVE: Yeah, we were doing the old Tonight Show and all of us went out on night after the show.

EYDIE: Mm.

STEVE: Hmm.

EYDIE: I remember wearing a very special dress that night because I knew that I was gonna go out with you.

STEVE: (laughs) Yeah, that flowery thing.

EYDIE: It was a solid color.

(audience laughs) STEVE: The flowery things I was thinking about that solid colored dress.

Green.

EYDIE: Yellow.

STEVE: Green with envy was everybody at that beautiful yellow dress.

EYDIE: Well, the next night you took me out alone.

Just the two of us.

STEVE: Yeah.

It was a clear night.

EYDIE: It was drizzling.

(audience laughs) STEVE: It was so clear I could see every drizzle.

(all laugh) EYDIE: Well, in spite of the weather, we went walking in Central Park.

STEVE: Yeah, like a couple of kids.

And you taking my hand.

EYDIE: (laughs) Yeah.

Actually, that first time, you took my hand.

STEVE: Well, what's the difference who took whose hand?

EYDIE: (laughs) Yeah.

STEVE: Though you did take mine first.

EYDIE: What's the difference?

STEVE: Meh.

EYDIE: We both fell in love at the same time, so.

STEVE: Mm-hmm.

EYDIE: You know, I happen to remember you taking my hand because I commented, "Look, you're taking my hand."

STEVE: Yes, I- I remember now.

That's right.

I recall it.

(audience applauding and cheering) MICHAEL: It's amazing to me that this is the first comprehensive retrospective looking at the careers and lives of Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gormé because they are so iconic in the history of American popular song, because of the different lives they touched, the way they were able to reach people and the scope of the music that they performed and the way they presented it.

It's truly a lost art.

And their work to me is as important for preservation as any great artist of the 20th century.

DAVID: While she was growing up, my mom was exposed to multiple languages.

She would go on to record several hugely popular albums of Spanish material, which helped introduce US audiences to the beautiful Latin boleros she loved, like this one with the Trio Los Panchos, "Sabor a Mí."

♪ ♪ Tanto tiempo disfrutamos ♪ ♪ De este amor ♪ ♪ Nuestras almas se acercaron ♪ ♪ Tanto así ♪ ♪ Que yo guardo tu sabor ♪ ♪ Pero tú llevas también ♪ ♪ Sabor a mí ♪ ♪ Si negaras mi presencia en tu vivir ♪ ♪ Bastaría con abrazarte y conversar ♪ ♪ Tanta vida yo te di ♪ ♪ Que por fuerza tienes ya ♪ ♪ Sabor a mí ♪ ♪ No pretendo ser tu dueña ♪ ♪ No soy nada, yo no tengo vanidad ♪ ♪ De mi vida doy lo bueno ♪ ♪ Soy tan pobre, ¿qué otra cosa puedo dar?

His million-selling smash, "Go Away Little Girl" is undoubtedly his most well-remembered.

It's a sweetly sentimental song written by the great Carole King and Gerry Goffin that recalls innocent days of young love and first crushes.

♪ Go away little girl ♪ (fan cheers) ♪ Go away little girl ♪ ♪ I'm not supposed to be alone with you ♪ ♪ I know that your lips are sweet ♪ ♪ But our lips must never meet ♪ ♪ I belong to someone else ♪ ♪ And I must be true ♪ ♪ Oh, go away little girl ♪ ♪ Go away little girl ♪ ♪ It's hurting me more ♪ ♪ Each minute that you delay ♪ ♪ When you are near me like this ♪ ♪ You're much too hard to resist ♪ ♪ So go away little girl ♪ ♪ Before I beg you to stay ♪ WOMEN: Whoo!

And so suddenly there was this dichotomy of people singing what we now call the Great American Songbook, which are standard songs written by Cole Porter and Irving Berlin and Sigmund Romberg, Hoagy Carmichael, Fats Waller.

And then the rock and roll things and the pop novelties that were propagated by Mitch Miller and things like "How Much is That Doggie in the Window" and "Pat Him on the Po-Po" by Bob Merrill.

And so singers were often forced to sing pop songs that they didn't want to sing.

And if they wanted to have a successful career, they had to adhere to that.

And then here are Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gormé who artistically stuck to their guns throughout the 1950s on a level that is in itself extraordinary.

Not only that they insisted on focusing on the music that touched them artistically, but also they had pop success in that time, which was not easy to do as things were changing.

However, they had talent and they had the ability to entertain and to reach an audience in a way that was unique.

They were very warm and inviting in what they did on stage and it was out of their love, not only for the music, but also the love of touching people.

CAROL: And they never worked together.

They only did- Steve and Eydie only worked together when they did their own specials, but they would work separately on- when they were guests on variety shows and all.

And then they got to know Eydie and Steve when- Ah, well, not only as performers, but as friends.

We eventually evolved in being kind of a family.

DAVID: The legendary songwriting team of Burt Bacharach and Hal David crafted some of the most sophisticated and successful songs of the 1960s and 1970s.

And when my mom sang a song, she gave it everything she had.

One of her many appearances on The Carol Burnett Show, she did just that, while showing her sultry side with "A House Is Not a Home."

And I'd like to have an order of soft-boiled eggs, about two minutes, very loose, but the center, I should like to have it hard, like a golf ball.

And I couldn't help but tear up, and- and- and hear those words of Steve singing... ♪ Is this the little girl I carried ♪ "Sunrise, Sunset" the wheel of life.

So important, our memories, the music that we share that sets the soundtrack for every single life event that we have.

Well, that's what Steve, and Steve and Eydie, have brought to us in our lives, and that's why it's so important right now that we're able to continue to preserve those memories to- to- to bring to everyone that moment we are all together, and we can listen to a song like "Sunrise, Sunset" a song of inspiration and hope and the important stuff.

Steve and Eydie continue with her son, David's memories of his mom and dad right here, right now, exclusively on public TV.

♪ DAVID: Over the years, my dad embraced numerous acting assignments alongside his musical endeavors.

One such project which showcased his talent as a singer and an actor was his 1964 Tony- nominated performance starring as the title character in the Broadway musical What Makes Sammy Run?

One of the shows highlights was the song, "A Room Without Windows."

And this might very well be my favorite record of my dad's.

My mom truly loved a great lyric.

She intuitively understood it and when she wrapped her voice around it, well, it was magic.

One of her masterpieces from the Broadway Songbook really shows off her exceptional interpretive abilities.

(all laugh) (audience claps) DAVID: In 1968, another dream came true for my parents when they teamed up to star in a new Broadway musical, Golden Rainbow, which gave my dad one of the most exhilarating songs of his career.

A song he introduced that went on to become a true standard.

The dynamic anthem, "I've Gotta Be Me."

MICHAEL: This show is such an emotional reminder of the way we were.

Back then, you could turn on the TV and find amazing performances every night.

Television was- was so free they would put together these massive productions with musical numbers, dancing, costumes, all for a single evening of entertainment.

And then, there were those truly special nights, like when Steve Lawrence would come on and perform "Portrait of My Love" or "Go Away Little Girl."

or when Eydie Gormé would appear dressed in sparkles and sing "Sabor a Mí" or "If He Walked into My Life."

I have to tell you, I don't think we realized how good we had it then.

And that's why it's so meaningful that these memories have been lovingly preserved in this public television special.

So right now we're asking you to support programs like this.

Please make your contribution now.

Give online or call or text the number on your screen.

Thank you.

She beat out Barbra Streisand.

You know, who- There's nobody bigger than Barbra Streisand, then and now for that matter.

And it just shows you the kind of respect and admiration that Eydie and Steve were both held in.

They- they really were considered a class act, and yet at the same time, you felt like you knew them.

It was a really remarkable thing.

They- they never seemed aloof, and they had such chemistry together, and fed off each other when they were performing.

And they were so funny.

And they seemed to be so much in love, and they had little pretend fights on stage, which were adorable.

You know, I could enjoy them, you know, as soon as I got to know who they were.

I enjoyed them for many, many, many years.

TJ: So, David, let's talk about public television.

The reason that we're able to celebrate the lives of your dad and your mom and- and go back, and to share these memories, this could only happen here.

DAVID: Love it.

We subscribe, watch everything on it.

We are ab- we are big time subscribers, have been for years.

It's a godsend.

It's unfortunately one of the few places we have left where you can see the arts supported in the way they should be supported and it breaks my heart, what's happening nationally, globally, it breaks my heart.

Public television is a- is a savior, and we'd be lost without it.

ANNOUNCER: Here's some more exclusive Steve and Eydie bonus footage you'll only get when you qualify for PBS Passport.

Great additional stories and songs, like this... CAROL: And I guess he made a wrong turn or something, and a cop stopped him right across the street from Television City where we're filming, taping.

And the cop says, "Okay, let me see your license."

And Steve said, "Oh."

He had left it at the hotel in the wrong wallet, or had the wrong wallet or something.

He couldn't believe that.

(Carol laughs) So Steve said, "But no, really, "I'm- I'm Steve Lawrence."

Well, beside him on the- in the car was the- the script, with a binder, that had his name on it, Steve Lawrence.

He said, "Look, look, here's the script.

It's got my name on it."

He said, "How do I know you didn't steal this car?

How do I know you're Steve Lawrence?"

He said, "Okay, look here, turn to page 22."

"Now if I know the lines, okay... You read Carol (laughs), and I'll- I'll be Steve."

So the cop said "What?"

He said, "Okay, if I know the lines, you'll know I'm Steve Lawrence."

He said, "Okay, so..." He said, "Now you're Carol."

"Okay, I start with the line."

He said, "Hi, honey, I'm home."

And the cop goes, "Where have you been?

I have been very upset that..." So he's reading my lines that way.

And they go about halfway through the sketch, and the cop closes the binder and he says, "This ain't funny."

(Carol laughs) And that was it and he- he let Steve go.

'Cause Steve knew the lines.
