The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. The Ed Sullivan Show is well known for bringing rock n' roll music to the forefront of American culture through acts like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. It also frequently featured stars of Motown such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder and The Jackson 5. The Ed Sullivan Show was one of the only places on American television where such a wide variety of popular culture was showcased and its legacy lives on to this day.

Their rendition of this song is one of the greatest recordings of the 1950s.
I have come to that same conclusion.
This is when music was music...... Absolutely beautiful
When music was beautiful and it lasted forever❤❤❤
When music was music. ❤
I imagine my mom (born in '35) hearing this on the radio. I'm sure she was so happy when she first heard Elvis Presley in '56
The year was 1955. And I was in my first year of junior high. 7th grade. These guys ruled the radio and their voices and strong harmony made my heart ho into my throat. What a song! Dancing to it at our school dances. What a feeling...and memory that was.
The singers who sing this song does a wonderful job on it,it makes me think of the man who loves me, is far away in a job.
I was 7 and this was my favorite song
A great song for the end of an era, when popular music became rock music. They did a great performance. Thanks for sharing!
Rock n roll didn't replace this kind of music though. You're making up a false watershed here
@@hothemeep1219I was talking about where it was the main music of the masses, like Big Band music was the tops of the charts and hearts of the American teens in the 30’s and 40’s. All a still around but, most youth look down there noses at it and or it looked on as nostalgia….I agree it’s a shame.
😎🙋🌅🛤️🚂.
Huge #1 hit and this appearance is right before the song debuted on the charts to start its spectacular run. I have a feeling these guys knew they had struck gold when they recorded this song and their delivery most certainly reflects that confidence.
Love this song ... stunning harmonies ... just beautiful
Perfection!
So beautiful, brings tears to my eyes! First heard this as a young teenager. Hope one day I can play this at my wedding!
The Four Aces , lovely voices and beautiful songs .❤❤❤❤
This song was the second of two #1 Billboard Pop hits for The Four Aces featuring Al Alberts. It was their last Top Ten record.
singing sure has changed since the good old days. hated this kind of music as a kid in the 60s but gained a whole new appreciation, doesn't hurt being a musician but taste wise I didn't get til now, too old to rock and roll too young to die🎙️
A classic
My mother had this 45. Great song and film.
What beautiful harmony ❤❤❤
Such beautiful harmony! I also love the Lettermen's version of this song too. The Four Aces & The Lettermen were truly an end of an era. After them, it became "crazy" rock songs. TY for sharing this. God Bless You & stay safe.
perhaps the best were the Four Lads...
So lovely!
So sweet!!! 🥰🥰💖💖🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Music from another time where the melody was valued and revered. I would say that since the 80s we have been forgetting that the voice is the main, most powerful and most democratic musical instrument, and that vocal harmonies can sound as wonderfully good as this one and even more. I know that these words will sound like an anachronism, but nowadays anyone can become a successful singer, the levels of demand and vocal preparation have fallen to the ground and the potential audience buys whatever the producers want to sold, and the music has ended up becoming simple, minimalist and predictable...
Great memory
My good! I love this music!!!!
What a beautiful voices ♥️
This is epic!!!
Always loved the movie. ❤
Ah, I'm so excited to see this! The Four Aces singing their Billboard number one hit "Love is a Many Splendored Thing". This is the original version, and the song was the theme for the 1955 movie of the same name starring William Holden and Jennifer Jones. Along with "Three Coins in the Fountain", this song provided the best-selling record for the Four Aces. The group members are lead singer Al Alberts, Lou Silvestri, Dave Mahoney and Rosario "Sod" Vaccaro. The song was written by Sammy Fain & Paul Francis Webster and proved to be so popular in 1955 that several competing versions also charted (by David Rose and His Orchestra, Don Cornell, Woody Herman and His Orchestra and Don, Dick and Jimmy). However, none were as successful as the original by the Four Aces.
Thank you so much for posting this great performance! I love the rare footage of '50's singers performing their hit singles on the show! It would be great to also see more '50's and early '60's vocal groups like the Four Lads, the Four Preps, the Four Coins, the Fontane Sisters, the Chordettes, the Lettermen, the Brothers Four, the Browns, as well as more by the the Platters, the Ames Brothers and the Four Aces.
Thank you for sharing! Would that be the same Al Albert that had the show "Al Albert's Showcase"?
Have a Wonderful Day! 💖
@@that70sgirl90 Yes, indeed! He hosted the talent show after his days of music stardom. The Four Aces were one of the most popular vocal groups of the '50's and inspired a lot of other groups with similar names (Four Lads, Four Preps, Four Coins, Four Freshmen, etc.). Al tried a solo music career for awhile but didn't recapture the success he had with the Aces. It's great to hear from you! I hope the month of May has been a good one for you so far!
@TomElvisSmith That's why I love to read what you post. When I read his name, of course, I did not recognize him. He was so young here. I remember as a young girl watching the "Al Albert's Showcase." Memories aren't the just grand? May started out very wet and soggy. First nice weekend we've had since Easter weekend. Hopefully, more warm and sunny days ahead! 🌞
Hope you are doing well. As always, thank you for sharing with us. 💖
@@that70sgirl90 You're welcome! There has been a lot of rain here too, but the sun is starting to shine more and more. Hope you are doing well too!
@TomElvisSmith I am. Thank you very much for asking. Have a Sunsational Day!! 🌞🌞🌞
Tle class !!!!!! what we do not have amymore today ......great singers they were....
My god what a set of pipes!
If it were not for the Four Aces, the Beatles would have never existed. Al Alberts became one of John Lennon's favorites as a kid when he was gifted this record on his 15th birthday.
, no if it wasnt for the Everly Brothers, Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry Little Richard and Gene Vincent there would be no Beatles! And I dont think back in 57 when John and Paul had the skiffle band The Quarreymen, Silver Beatles, and also Johnny and the Moondogs, ever covered the Four Aces or sounded like them, but that is a cool story about john being gifted with this record.
@@recordguy4321 it was the Four Aces who actually inspired all those guys. Buddy Holly first heard them in 1949 and this inspired him to start writing songs as a teen in Lubbock. It's amazing that the inspirational reach of Al Alberts touched both Buddy and John Lennon, who was also inspired by Buddy as well.
@@recordguy4321 You forgot Elvis
@@bubbaschwartz I think Elvis would have most likely enjoyed listening to the Four Aces. He had so many influences and different tastes in music. People keep saying he was influenced by black blues singers, but they never mention all the white groups and singers like Dean Martin. Elvis was a sponge and that's why he could sing any type of song, and in most cases, sing it better than the original singer.
@@christinah7716 Elvis sang Dean's I dont Care if the sun dont shine, better than Dean
Great cuartet of singers 👍🏻🐻🇲🇽
I came to know the four aces from an fm radio, when radio ruled. Me born in 65 and living in Turkey. Still they would be bigger kings today than they were back then, say they played their songs more often, every now and then... All the best to them and lovers.
My all time favourite version. I have watched the film many times and will never tire of the music or the film.
Impressive. Talk about breath control! Can't say I like the slow-tempo, swing style, I much prefer the movie's straight-time, up-tempo version, but at least they sing it rhythmically, unlike Sinatra, Nat Cole, etc., who all rubato the life out of the melody.
They could sing and Al Alberts was a great lead singer.
They all were in the Navy together
Linda melodia'❤
One of my favourite songs performed by one of my favourite vocal groups of all time ❤
Braaaaaaaaavaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!
We got a really big shoe 👞 for you tonight!
❤ it brilliant
Das war noch Musiker der sich immer wieder gerne die Bilder und höre die Musik zu . Das war die beste Performance. In den 50er 60er Jahren egal ob black oder white beide gemacht nur schade dass damals zu viel Rassismus gegeben hat. Heute noch zum Teil
The kisses couple in the movie..made fall in love with my dream girl.. arica. Chile
I love him too as well .
Fantastic but I could hear more voices. Were they behind the curtain!
Lead singer Al Alberts 2nd from right
I met Al Alberts years ago. There are points here where they’re singing so loud the stage microphone almost explodes!
Philadelphia!!!
Just curious--did Ray Bloch have a chorus at his disposal for numbers like this?
Ништяк 😊
Fantastic!
Movie by the same name
Day 2 of asking for more Rosemary Clooney!
Just go to youtube and type in Rosemary Clooney songs and films.
By golly, that is Charlie Kirk!
I'm pretty sure that's Charlie Kirk on the far left. How'd he time travel like that?
