It's a challenging comparison because their objectives are different. Rosemary is performing a pop song - it's arranged and sung outside the confines of a scene from a musical. Doris Day is recording a specific track for a musical working within the confines of character and structure of the scene. I imagine, had Doris Day done a pop song studio recording of this song, it would have been very similar to Rosemary Clooney's version- and all we would have been left with a choice between which voice do you prefer.

For me, I can't make a choice in this instance. Doris Day is one of my all time favorites- it's her timbre, her warmth, her lilt (that is unsurpassed), her humor, seductive quality, and musicality that she brings to each song that makes me continually appreciate her genius. And then there is Rosemary, who brings a very deep and dark approach to each of songs- there's something so adult and knowing that makes you realize she's been down a very heartbreaking road that makes you experience the song in a very different way. Doris never let you into her tragedies where as Rosemary opened the door to hers. Each bring their own equally respected and appreciative perspectives.

Rosemary brings a depth and maturity to this lyric that is unparralled. I was 5 when this song was on the radio. Loved it then and still do

In my opinion, Rosemary Clooney has more depth to her voice than does Doris Day. But I LOVE them both and will always pause to listen whenever I hear them sing on the radio. Thank you Tyler for posting.

Doris Day forever. I'm totally in love for her. Her voice is smiling. Always smiling. She sings smiling. Also when she's singing sad, she's smiling, as she were confident in the better future. Her voice is so innocent and sexy at the same time.

Both great voices and great technique and stylists.

Rosemary and Doris
Had Something in Common. Both from Cincinnati Ohio.. Rosemary had a strong voice. Doris had a soft voice. I wouldn't say which is the Best both were great performers.

Not a fair comparison. Doris was acting a scene while singing this, where she was emotional and on the verge of tears. So to compare her performance to someone whose only objective was to sing it as best as she can, isn't fair. I love both women, and admire their talent, but if I had to pick a favorite, I'd pick Doris.

IMO the 5 best female vocalists of their era (in random order) were Doris Day, Rosemary Clooney, Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee, & Billie Holiday. They set the standard for all who followed.

Hardly a fair comparison. Doris was performing a scene from Pajama Game sung live because she knew lip-syncing would be off due to crying. These two women are my very favorite singers ever with Doris edging out Rosie by a hair. They are both spectacular but different renditions

Unfair to make comparisons of two superb singers. As has been said, Doris was singing for a soundtrack. Whereas Rosie had the benefit of a recording studio. They are both special in their own way and it is so foolish to question as to who is the better singer.

To be accurate, neither of these women introduced the song. John Raitt and Janis Paige did that in the original production in 1954.

Rosemary Clooney sang the version sung in the play & movie by John Raitt (as Sid) with minimal changes in gender, Doris Day's version was basically a reprise viewing what was going in from her character Babe's point of view at that point where she had broken things off with Sid. That meant different technique among other things. So naturally they are going to be too different to truly compare. Each has its own beauty.
