Born in the summer, we rocked our sweet baby girl to sleep while playing this song. In our home this is, "The Baby's Song". Thank you for sharing this video.
This beautiful song is one that is very close to my heart...it was one of my mother's very favorites. We used to listen to this one together, and I can "feel" her near every time I hear it. Thank you Phil - for the music and the memory...
I still have a VHS copy of "A Summer Place" and this song ws one of my very favorites of all time. This "Letterman" version is just wonderful.
I think I've watched "summer place " at least a hundred times!!!
This beautiful song reminds me of my daddy this is his favorite he loves playing this song over and over... And now I'll never gonna hear this song again with him I miss you daddy :'(
I cry for you and my self
I love these guys. Perfect harmony.
I think Brian Wilson must have heard and been inspired by this. I hear Beach Boys harmonies in there.
And 4 Seasons.
Such a beautiful Love song and those who are Blessed with Love are the Lucky ones. It could rain or storm it would not matter if She Loved me!

Loved them! I was born in the 60's and grew up with them on the turntable.
Nice and slow.. spesifik...
Love their version!
Remember watching this...17 at time..
Time is flying...
Phil, my Mum and Dad were amazed at this video and actually remember the show!! :-)
Ah the Good ol days.. listening to them on 8 Track. 😁
Ross Dickens In 1962 it was 45 rpm records. Didn’t have 8 track yet. 😃
Awww such a sweet memory, thanks for sharing with us!
Wonderfully done by a super group! This version is my favorite.
Awesome song with awesome vocals. I just love listening to the Lettermen singing this song, there are no equals today.
This classic just never ends. Weather it's Percy Faith, or another orchestra. The Lettermen does this timeless version to perfection!!!
This is a pretty version, but I am partial to the instrumental version from the ROSE RED movie.
My Dad's favorite group 😍
The song is on my personal top 100 list. I was certainly here in 1962 but don't remember watching the performance on TV. There has never been a version as good as The Lettermen. Thank you.
Prettiest song ever.
They had great voices.
I got to dance to this great song at some pool party's back in 66 and 67. wow I am lucky.
Love it Thanks !!
this is my my. baby sister song she likes this song when she crys alot we let this song and she. will just sleep she is my baby sister she is so cute
All 3 men were hearthrobs. Awesome that Tony is still one today. May Bob and Jim RIP. Their voices blend so well together and bring back childhood memories ❤
The 60s scored a direct nuclear hit on their careers. Their demise took that entire type of music with them.
Phil, thanks so much for posting this video. Wow, they sound and look great! This is one of my all-time favourite Lettermen songs. Thanks again!
Here Jim is doing the Falsetto.
Muy linda versión de este hermoso tema.
Great song.
No, it's Merv.... Thanks for watching!
Siempre me ha gustado esa melodía,en los años 60 ,solo tenía dos años,pero en la adolescencia la escuché y me gustó 🌟🌟🌺
Thank you so much for this video. Been searching videos of them singing Only Friends, Morning Girl and this one.
@Lettermenfan1000 No problem Virginia, a fan like you deserves to watch the best.....!
Que combinación de voces tan fregonas y que buen tema.
excellent Phil. Thanks!
Someone reads Wikipedia at bedtime.
Before wiggling while they sang.
The original three and the sound is as pure as driven snow.RIP Bobby E.
Wow
Nice
I love love love them!!
Great song. Wish they had done it live though.
Thanks for the info.... always welcome!
Happy memories all round then, Eman!!
I always thought the words were Theme from a Summer Place the theme....as the Simpsons old dude sang
Merv Griffin or Mike Douglas? It looked like Mike Douglas but I'm not sure.
A young Merv Griffin.
Talent and class.
Do you know Jasper? 8DD
When we were still at home, my mom on weekend chores would put letterman and others on her console stereo😃
She did that to minimize the griping and moaning we sometimes did.. that music made our chores so much easier and faster. Not a peep out of us the whole time. We would sing with them. So much fun. ..1966/7 My mom was Smart! lol…
Miss u Papah
Great job on this song.
Magnificent....
💃💃💃💃💃💃😘🤗✌️👍💕🍀🌏
A theme to a winters place is better.
My Dad had this music on 8 track. When my parents would go out and the babysitter came over I would lock the bedroom door, find one of my Dad's dress shirts and sing these songs in front of the mirror. Great songs to learn how to harmonize to! 🤗😍😊
