Eydie Gorme Eydie Gormé (August 16, 1931) is a bilingual (English and Spanish) American singer who, with her husband Steve Lawrence, is credited heavily with helping to keep the classic American pop repertoire alive and well. The couple's striking union of broad ballads and breezy swing has combined with the endurance of their marriage and their comic facility to make them American institutions---even though neither of the couple, as separate performers or together, has put a single into the American Top 40 since 1963.
