A little about me and this channel:
My name is James Aubrey IV and I just recently graduated college from Iowa State University. After college I decided to take a leap of faith. So I moved to San Diego California to pursue my passion for videography/ TH-cam. Overall I'm a pretty chill person, outside of TH-cam I like to longboard, dance, play video games, lift weights and hangout with my friends. I know that success on TH-cam won't happen overnight but I'm willing to stay patient and put in the work to try to prefect my craft daily. This TH-cam channel will be centered around my life after college. You will be able to see all of the ups and downs on my journey to success. So if you like the content make sure you subscribe so you can be apart of the Rome Life Family. (Let's build our own personal Rome's together.)
What is the Rome Life ? And What does it mean to be apart of it?
Rome Life is something I started during my Sophomore year of high school (one of the worst times in my life) it started off as me documenting my journey to recovery from my shoulder surgery but eventually it turned into a platform that I could use to encourage myself as well as others to chase our dreams.
Rome Life isn't just a saying it's a way of life and for the people who want to be apart of it have to realize that. Rome wasn't built in a day it took a lot of handwork time and most importantly patience. So you can't expect your dreams to be any different
This is a reaction video used to educated and give my feedback on the song and artist

While the lyrics may seem 'obvious behaviour' for men nowadays, they were radically feminist when this song was released in 1963.
This song was radical and shocking for 1963
It's still radical now, unfortunately.
When it was written by two men.
@@harvey1954 That's beside the point.
@@iainsan No it's not. A reliance on men just like registering for the Draft.
This was a revolutionary song because of the lyrics. Girls were expected to live their life for men.... period! It became an anthem for women tired of the "barefoot and pregnant" train of thought.
And later came "I Am Woman (Hear Me Roar)". Society was changing.
Yep
Yesssssss
Thank you!! I was born in the late 60's but I remember this song when I was a kid in the 70's. This song has stood the test of time!!
I love this song I am old enough to rember this lsond
Can you imagine June Cleaver all of a sudden getting in Ward's face & singing this,?
🤣🤣
I remember my mother telling her boyfriend/man at the time these wordsI'm young and I love to be young
“I'm free and I love to be free” And of course I knew right where it came from...My mother was an Independent and Self Dependent woman who raise three girls mostly by herself..( in a time when woman was barely able to work).She gave me my spirit and taught me never let anyone hold you down..Lord how I miss her advice
This would have been considered very sassy at the time. I love her!
She had a major hit with It's My Party, and a smaller hit with the follow-up, Judy's Turn To Cry
Another vote for "It's My Party And I'll Cry If I Want To"
Love It's My Party and actually Judy's Turn to Cry
Quincy Jones produced it’s myparty
I wouldn’t call them minor hits. They were pretty big
How can you remake a classic? She was an Original. You can't remake that. Love her version!!
I am surprised they didn't do an an entire movie about Leslie. She was groundbreaking in many ways. As a little boy when her hits came out, i was just fascinated with her, she was unusual. Especially on this song.
My social studies teacher went to high school with her. Later I learned this song was produced by Quincy Jones. Pretty cool all around!
Awesome song!
Quincy produced its myparty
Her facial expressions, superbly timed smiles, eye movements, and overall delivery coupled with those fantastic ‘60’s chord changes make this one GREAT video.
This song was rebellious back in the day. Women were supposed to do what men said. First their fathers and brothers, and then their husbands.
This is one of Quincy Jones's first artists to produce. He's the guy who produced M.J Thriller, and hundreds of other artists.
I didn’t know that!
Thanks for the info. Good to know!
He established his name as a producer having produced several hits for Dinah Washington on Mercury record label. Lesley was signed to the same label matched with Quincy to produce her records.
Reminds of the era of Lulu. Try "To, Sir with Love" .
yes.
Teenage pop singers like Leslie were pretty popular in the early 60s. Kind of set the foundation of girl groups that would be signed to Motown. Oh and the reason, it hasn't been updated is because nobody could come close to her voice and nobody wants to hear remixes of 50-60 year old songs on radio. There's a reason why certain songs and artists still hold up over the years.
It was sung in the movie The First Wife's Club
They used a remake of this track, in "Suicide Squad" for Harley Quinn's introduction. -- If you like this song, try Frank Sinatra's daughter, Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots are Made Walking." -- I also 2nd a vote for Lulu "To Sir With Love", which is also one of my Sidney Poitier favorite films.
Another vote for "These Boots Are Made For Walking"
Sung by Grace Sewell (aka Saygrace) a young Aussie singer who recorded this song at the tender age of 19yo. A nice play as well for intro to Harley Quinn (aka Margot Robbie) another great Aussie artist...
I prefer bang bang by Nancy
Leslie first recorded this in 1963, she was 17 at the time. Major sentiment in the song for the time. My sister, Leslie’s age, took this song to heart for the rest of her living days. Being a 13 y.o. boy then, I only knew I loved her voice and her looks. (Dusty Springfield as well.) - BG
SayGrace has an excellent cover of this. Hats off to Leslie for busting out with independence back in the day.
This song brings memories when my mom would be be cleaning the house and signing along with the song. I'd be in my room listening to music like Queen,Def Leppard, Led Zeppelin,Prince etc :) But now,I sure appreciate my mom's music. 🥰❤ I'll take those good ol happy times with today's times any day.
Me too. I never got this when I was a kid, but man, when my dad was away my mum and her best friend would open a bottle of wine, bring out the cigarettes, crank up the old turntable and Lesley would play at full volume over and over again…..
She and her brother Michael wrote songs for the movie Fame and others in the 80's.
I just found that out a few hours ago. What a tremendous talent.
Produced by Quincy Jones who was pleasantly surprised by her ability.
This is my mom's era! I grew up listening to sings like these!
Judy's turn to cry and it's my party are both great songs!
underrated and way ahead of her time and what an incredible performance - there have been many covers over the years, like Grace and G-Eazy, but none have come up to the level of passion and commitment to the lyrics as Lesley Gore
I grew up in the 60s so I love was a huge fan of Leslie Gore. I think she became a star at age 16. How about some Dusty Springfield like I Only Wanna Be With You.
This song came out in 1963. The iconic movie To Sir with Love with Sidney Poitier featured the song To Sir with Love by Lulu in 1967. The feminist movement with Gloria Steinem being one of the facesGloria of the movement began in the late 60s early 70s. Bra burning was in 1968. When you wrap it all up with a pretty bow this song was really far ahead of its time
The beginning of women speaking out!!!💜😊🎵🎶🎼🤟
I love Lesley Gore. Great song.
Try "It's My Party" ( and I'll Cry if I want To ) This song, You Don't Own Me, was remade for a movie with Goldie Hawn and two other Hollywood stars, Diane Keaton and Bette Midler ) ...who sang it in trio. Trying to remember the name of the movie! ( late 80s or 90s)
First Wives Club (1996) was the movie.
She was produced by Quincy Jones...try Dionne Warwicks "Don't Make Me Over"...
She was 16 or 17 when she made that so much talent at a young age
Little known fact: Leslie Gore was discovered by Quincy Jones.
React to Dusty Springfield You Don't Have To Say You Love
Yes.
Love your reaction - a year gone by already !! 🥰☮️🎵
So glad you’re a liberationist
Women didn't say things like that to men in 1963!
Gore came out as a lesbian later in life. "Maybe I Know"is a great song, too!
RIP, beautiful Leslie.
You're fun to watch. Leslie and Michael Gore wrote most of the songs for the movie Fame. If you really want to do something different and be totally thrilled I think you'd get a huge kick out of the finale from the original 1980 movie - - I Sing the Body Electric. I can pretty much guarantee that you will NOT be disappointed. Make sure, if you do it, to actually watch it done from the original film. It's a fantastic scene and the performance is absolutely mind-bogglingly moving and thrilling and beautifully staged. There's a bunch of links to it on youtube. All the best from an enthusiastic new viewer. Good work, young man.
As others have mentioned this was not her best performance and add my name to the list of those who cite "Maybe I Know" as their favorite Lesley Gore song. "You Don't Own Me" was written by two men (John Madara and David White) who wanted to create a song where a woman made a statement but they didn't expect it to become an anthem for independence. It was a noticeable break from the usual kind of song that girl and girl groups had been singing such as Little Peggy March's "I Will Follow Him," and Marcie Blane's "(I Want To Be) Bobby's Girl." For Lesley it was a case of bad timing because "You Don't Own Me" was at number two on the charts at the end of 1963 but was denied the number one spot when a new band called The Beatles took the US by storm in January 1964. Lesley continued to record but this was her last top ten hit although she made it into the top 20 with "Sunshine, Lollipops, and Rainbows" and "California Nights." She later found success as a songwriter and released an album in 2005 that had a remake of "You Don't Own Me." She was able to make a singing comeback on the nostalgia circuit but sadly she passed away in early 2015.
Leslie never wanted to be Bobbie's girl. More likely Barbara's girl.
Checkout Leslie Gore It's my party and Judy's turn to cry!! Just think Leslie was 16 when she did You don't own me!!!
This song is 57 years old so this was a radical song for that era when women were pretty much still considered chattel. She was a song writer and she was also a social activist. She was a Lesbian and open about it, she found the music industry very homophobic. She was a host of the PBS Gay Life series "In The Life". She was in a relationship with luxury jewelry designer Lois Sassoon from 1982 until Gores death from Lung Cancer in 2015
As I recall, Lesley also had green eyes. A version in color would show that and might be a longer version.
Joan Jett did a cover of this. This is the first time Ive heard the original. thanks for sharing
Real music when auto tune wasn't a thing and everyone in music could sing.
Early "women's rights" song. Love it
Another song that's sort of in the same lane is "I am Woman" by Helen Reddy. It became the anthem for the women's lib movement!
Another vote for Helen Reddy singing for "I Am Woman"
It's one of the greatest anthems.
Love your reaction what a difference to when it was first released, try listening to GRACE singing this song...
Yes go awfff Lesley!!!
I love this song and it's all can be for anybody in your life rather be someone you're dating male or female, your boss or your parent I am my own person
Listen to the words ... Great love this ... Loved it back in school ... And it was old then
Rome do a reaction to Lesley Gore - Maybe I Know Lesley Gore - All of My Life Lesley Gore - Say Goodbye
Try "Venus"by Shocking Blue you will enjoy 😎 beautiful female singer!
in respect to judge ruth bader ginsberg -- this could be her theme song. we had to fight to live the way we wanted, dress the way we wanted, and think for ourselves without being told to shut-up and go out and get the jobs we wanted. still working on it but i love it
There's a movie 'The First Wives Club' Bette Midler sings this along with Goldie Hawn and Diane Keaton
Leslie Gore was 16 when she put this song out in 1963
Great song...way too short...love your reaction to this!💞💞
It's my comment, and I'll cry if I want to
Cute.
Would you please react to Roy Orbison"Crying".
like the duet he does of Crying with K.D. Lang
Leslie was a big talent back in the 60’s. A great voice. Can you do “Maybe I Know”.one of may big hits RIP Leslie
Maybe I Know and The Look of Love.
This is an excellent reaction video. This is exactly what I look for in reaction videos.
Please React to 25 or 6 to 4 by Chicago
Lesley Gore had a little string of hits in the early-to-mid '60s that lasted about 3 or 4 years, and then she sort of fell of the radar screen, never to be heard from again. Her biggest hit was "It's My Party." There were far better female vocalists in the 1960s. But there's no denying that her star shone brightly for a little while. She was fortunate to come along right at a time when NBC and ABC television both telecast a prime time show catering to the youth music market -- "Hullaballoo!" on NBC, and "Shindig!" on ABC, each showcased young pop music stars, giving artists like Lesley Gore national exposure they might not otherwise have received. As others have mentioned, this particular song is meaningful today because we can look back in hindsight and realize that it was pretty revolutionary for its time in that a girl proclaiming her independence from a domineering male partner was very progressive, women's lib kind of thinking that had not yet been embraced by mainstream America. Leave it to the younger generation to lead on such issues.
Quincey Jones on production, stunning.
During that time women were basically told shut up do what I tell you you're not worthwhile people don't want to hear you. When they say they were treated a second class citizens yeah that's an understatement
The song has been sampled and covered over the years.
One of the best female empowerment songs ever.
You're right. I have never heard a cover of this. There must be one, but it seems like it would be popular.
I think beyoncé will tear this song up, but still no one will ever top Leslie RIP
I'm surprised as well. Would like to hear it as a hip hop
This song and all of her hits were produced by Quincy Jones. The studio versions were much better than the concert footage. She was a neighbor in Tenafly NJ. She was 17 in this concert, which also included The Miracles, Supremes, Marvin Gaye, the Supremes, Beach Boys ,James Brown, The Rolling Stones, Chuck Berry..etc ...great concert...the live version here is not the complete song...she died several years ago at the age of 66...RIP.
Lesley was 68 when she passed.... a great loss in the music business
May she R I P
Another classic.
Always loved this song, even though it came out when I was 6. She did It's My Party, which was great, and a big hit for her, and the follow up, and the rest of the story, It's Judy's Turn To Cry. I would love for you to react to them. Like others have said, this video doesn't do her voice justice!
Leslie was 16 and this was 1963 can you imagine
The lyrics sound even more personal for Gore when you realize that she was lesbian, but in those days it was not a good career move to make that information public (not that it's anybody's business other than hers). Great record and the best of the 60s Girl Group singers.
This song was used in the movie 1st Wives Club - Goldie Hawn, Bette Midler & Diane Keaton sang it,
Lesley Gore also has a song called maybe I know which is one of my favorites of her songs along with the one you're listening to now she got about four or five others but they're the typical boy girl relationship songs.
Crazy how times have changed 🙈
It was filmed like that because they wouldn't show her figure or dancing on TV. 🤓🤪
The clip was taken from the film called "The T.A.M.I. Show" which was released in movie theaters. The show actually took place at the Santa Monica Auditorium. I remember seeing it a few years later on television when Dick Clark hosted.
JimmyGable, Why wouldn't they show her figure or dancing on TV? This was right around when Go-Go dancing got big, which was sexy enough - even today.
@@pbasswil As a style yes. But TV was SUPER SUPER conservative back then. Heck Elvis dancing was shocking when it was shown 🤣😂
Please react to
"Love Child" Diana Ross
"War" Edwin Starr
"Radar Love" Golden Earring
"You Shook me All night Long" AC/DC
Thank you
Love Child is the Supremes...not solo Diana.
@@rayjones5684 True...I thought about that after I posted it🤪
@@emagrandalen4494 great song...recording...!!!
Jay and the Americans. cara Mia. You will live it
This song was banned by some radio stations back in the day because of the message.
Ok Leslie was 16/17 years old. She also did it’s my party with the sequel of it’s judys turn to cry. Aqua net was the hair spray girls used to hold their hair so tight and still lol. Try lulu with the titled song of to sir with love, she stars and sings in the movie with Sidney pointier to sir with love! These old songs done with no auto tune just their voice and their presence.
Luke Kelly/ the Dubliners ‘night visiting song’ & Raglan road ‘ lyrically beautiful
Love it!!
stunning performance
I'm so proud of you young men for reacting so positively to this song. What a difference from the time when this was written and performed. Change is happening. It may be slower than we'd like but it is happening. Great reaction!
They don't even recognize the reason the song was sung in the first place. A bit refreshing.
It was from a time when two men wrote the song.
Its my party is Lesley Gore's top song
Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers duet song islands in the stream written by the Bee Gees I believe you'll like that song
You gotta watch "The girls on the beach" featuring her and "The Beach Boys. 1965 was a different time.
Another great one. Thanks for making this Monday better.
In the 1960’s it was very difficult for an unmarried woman to get a bank account or a credit card in her own name. If she was married, she was allowed to be a signatory on her husband’s account. Not only that, 26 states denied unmarried women the right to birth control. Oh, and it was perfectly legal to fire both married and unmarried women if they became pregnant and the first sexual harassment lawsuit wasn’t filed until 1974.
Women were often expected to quite their jobs when they got married, too.
I read in a biography of Leslie Gore at Wikipedia, that she came out of the closet, and admitted in a 2005 interview that she was a lesbian, and that she had a "common-law" marriage with Lois Sasson since 1982. I do not get the impression that people did not want to cover Leslie Gore's music because of her sexual orientation, even though some people inside the music industry may have had the impression that was gay.
"You Don't Own Me" is a great song about young female empowerment. I guess that the younger generation of singers and songwriters are simply not familiar with this song, due to the passage of time, and the view by Oldies Rock radio program directors that this song is not as valuable or important in Gore's musical legacy as her other hit songs, such as "It's My Party", and "Judy's Turn To Cry".
In the very-historic 1964 Rock concert film, "The T.A.M.I. Show", Leslie Gore was the "headlining act" of a two-day music festival to raise college scholarship money. She performed this song (which you just watched and heard), and five other songs during her set. The concert film was caught up in "litigation hell" for decades, until all of the lawsuits were settled, and the film was finally put out on DVD several years ago. "The T.A.M.I. Show" is available for viewing in its entirety here on TH-cam. Along with Leslie Gore, the concert film also stars Chuck Berry, Smokey Robinson And The Miracles, Marvin Gaye, The Supremes, The Beach Boys, James Brown And The Famous Flames, and The Rolling Stones, along with other music acts. Note: James Brown And The Famous Flames stole the entire show: the crowd went absolutely NUTS for James Brown.
Try "it's my party" by her. One of my favorite oldies.
Also check out Patsy Cliens-crazy or my personal fav walkin after midnight
And Connie Francis-sweet nothins and my personal fav cuz of the strength of her voice My happiness it’s a strong song but amazingly beautiful!
Lesley Gore has always been one of my very favorite singers. "You Don't Own Me" was one of her favorites, and lots of times she closed her concerts with this song.
I would love to see your reaction to
dimash kudaibergen - sos d'un terrien en détresse english
Hard to believe she was only 16 for this one and " It's my party", produced by Quincy Jones in 1963.
Your awesome man, I love your reaction
There are multiple covers of it.
Dangerous lyrics for the 60's or 50's.
This is not the full version of the song. You should react to either the recorded version or another live version in which she sings the entire song.
can you please react to Janis Joplin Summertime at Monterey?
You’ve got to hear the sound quality of the original studio recording when you get the time. The sound quality is superior.
and "Sad Movies" Sue Thompson.....there are so many! thanks
