He grew up. He went from being a cute boy to being a man. He had a great adult voice and the women loved him. There's no doubt that if he'd stop doing the drugs and really focused on his career also with a great support system. He could have made a big come back. But even though he's deceased his music and legacy still lives on. I went into two stores this week and guess what I heard? They were playing Frankie Lymons songs.
EMMA LYMON - My 7th grade teacher at W.S. Hornsby Elementary School, Augusta, Georgia. She was the prettiest and most sophisticated teacher around! I loved her. She was deemed His legal wife after several years of legal juris.
I went to the same junior high school as Frankie (Stitt JHS 164) in the mid-1960's and one of my teacher's used Frankie's downfall as a warning to us to steer clear of drugs. I saw a lot of lives destroyed by heroin.
Since the entertainment industry is dodgy to say the least, I am not convinced that his death was a simple overdose. The syringe next to the body is too obvious and apparently there was no autopsy.
I love this great video of one of the greatest rock and roll singers of all time is Frankie Lymon he made some great songs from back in the day like unforgettable classics Why Do Fools Fall In Love I used to have the movie on videocassette it was a good movie Larenz Tate was excellent in the film!!! It was a shame that he died so young of a drug overdose at 26 years old in 1968. Sometimes being a singer and a musician is really tough in the music industry like being on drugs, alcohol, spending money and you lose everything like your house and all your prized possessions too!!!! Being a singer leaves you broke with nobody else to turn to!!!! Thanks so much for posting this video I love it!!! R.I.P. Frankie Lymon you are now in musical heaven!!!👼👼👼👼👼🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
The one and frankie lymon and the teenagers there will never ever be another frankie lymon what a voice it.s unreal the powerful voice I love him and they music all I can say is rest in peace frankie and thank you for all of the great doo..wopp. you left all to enjoy the greatest doo.wopp group of all times frankie lymon and the teenagers love you all
Frankie wasn't ready to be a solo act to have the manger push him is what killed him besides the drugs. It was sad to see Frankie on that show with his teeth missing they just embarrassed him. Love you Frankie
The song was written after they were given love letters from a neighbor not someone writing to Frankie. It wasn’t written by Frankie. It was written by 2 of the other members.
Movies sucked they portrayed him as army hero fact was he went awol n dishonorably discharged. He was nothing more than doo wop. Singer. N couldnt get any further Patty went into producing like some musicians do you would have probably made it
Sas thing about frankie is that he thought doo wop was going last forever and it didnt. By 60s he was almost broke n hooked on heroin .stealing from stores n what freinds he had left. The movie tby made bout was bout worst thing ever made. Portrayed him as a miltary hero when the fact was he awol n dishonorably discharged n also draining zola taylor bank account n let her home go to foreclosure hints that he was an irresponsible. As he got older he then begins lose his voice due to drugs he was gone
Sad story I am 77 yrs old and Hearing this for the second time. He was so genuine I am in a nursing home and This was so good and then he Got on drugs. That evil stuff
you’re the first person to complain about it. and a majority of other people use wikipedia as a source as well as the sources wikipedia uses. you’re free to dislike but it ain’t the end of the world.

He didn’t write the song it was jimmy and Herman
Thank you for the verification! I could have sworn he did, but again thank you!
Truly Uneek no he didn’t
I believe you I’m just upset cause my source wasn’t reliable. I can’t trust the site I went to
Truly Uneek no worries
Again thank you for correcting me. I was gonna do another video on topics such as these. Do you have any suggestions?
Frankie will never be forgotten one of the most powerful voices ever recorded ❤️😍

Sad he died so young.
We must preserve the memory of him! Thanks for sharing! He is my favorite!
Even heroin could not kill his voice! Rare Talent!

I’m a millennial but I LOVE Frankie Lymon and his voice is so touching
But his story is haunting..

Correction: He was 25 not 26
@@NoahGragsonFan10 Really wow oh ok
Drugs are stupid, leave drugs alone!
One hundred percent TRUTH!
I'm not from the Doo Wop era but I really enjoy the singers and songs.... I guess because my older siblings listened to the oldies....
Frankie Lymo what a talent most musicians are ahead of their time.So many get into drugs at young age they destroy them selves.
too true good sir it’s very sad
Love you Frankie🥰❤💯💯💯.

His voice is captivating

What show?
@@tannaviajohnson6092 Mami you would have to search yeah they did him very bogus asf
frankie lymon live fast died young yep that was a accurate description
He was just a kid taken advantage of and had no guidance or mentor, sad life😞
I know it’s not gaming but I hope everyone enjoys it :)
Also I’m gonna do daily uploads now :)
The song was written after they were given love letters from a neighbor not someone writing to Frankie. It wasn’t written by Frankie. It was written by 2 of the other members.
A whole show was canceled because, Lymon danced with a white girl. Man America you are sick!! This man started out great then crashed. Sad story.
Watch "Why Do Fools Fall in Love", that movies is all about Frankie's tragic life.
Movies sucked they portrayed him as army hero fact was he went awol n dishonorably discharged. He was nothing more than doo wop. Singer. N couldnt get any further Patty went into producing like some musicians do you would have probably made it
Why Do Fools Fall In Love Is Nice❤️
REST 🌈🌟 FRANKIE LYMON ❤️🖤💚🤎 FAMILY DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜,
Great voiceallways be rememberd
great talent he is gone to soon.
It sucks. He should’ve never left the teenagers, I feel like they were his true family and he needed them deep down.
Yea we gotta keep frankie alive
So sad he lived such a short life
That stage setting was awful in the beginning of this video.
Whites in the crowd didn't know how to react
kinda sad ngl
Radio music when I was eight. Great stuff and to all naysayers, McCartney died in '66.
@Mega Dope Did u tell him that the earth was flat too! I think he'd agree to the "alternate factoid"!
*R.I.P Frankie my nigga was young Legend !!!*
yes sir i miss him
@@TrulyUneek I hate you the n word is upsetting to me and the black community
Sas thing about frankie is that he thought doo wop was going last forever and it didnt. By 60s he was almost broke n hooked on heroin .stealing from stores n what freinds he had left.

I like him,I don't care about what he did and didn't do , he's my favorite Singer (One Of Them 😊👌🤗)
When do I get a story video
My question is, do we own the rights to this song why do fools fall in love?
There was no video tape in 1957
Why do fools fall for drugs???
Didn't he marry Zola from the platters?
yes he did they were married for 2 years, then Frankie died 😭
How do they know how old the woman was añd who is she if you're gonna mention her at all
No we don't know,but we do know he was a CHILD, and the women was grown as women! Frankie was a meal ticket.
Part 2?
This was kinda interesting
Sad story I am 77 yrs old and
Hearing this for the second time. He was so genuine
I am in a nursing home and
This was so good and then he
Got on drugs. That evil stuff
What got him hooked again his neighborhood or friends
It is still going on today. up
So sad
Children have a hard time
Growing up today with the
Covid virus and still
Virus
It is sad. Did his family have
Anything to do with i
Where did he live abd where was he born
What a waste...
