- Save The Last Dance For Me
"You can dance-every dance with the guy
Who gives you the eye, let him hold you tight
You can smile-every smile for the man
Who held your hand neath the pale moon light
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darling... save the last dance for me
Oh... I know that the musics fine
Like sparklin' wine, go and have your fun
Laugh and sing, but while we're apart
Don't give your heart to anyone
And don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darling... save the last dance for me
Baby don't you know I love you so
Can't you feel it when we touch
I will never never let you go
I love you oh so much
You can dance, go and carry on
Till the night is gone, And it's time to go
If he asks if you're all alone
Can he walk you home, you must tell him no
'cause don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darling... save the last dance for me
Oh... I know that the musics fine
Like sparklin' wine, go and have your fun
Laugh and sing, but while we're apart
Don't give your heart to anyone
And don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darling... save the last dance for me
So don't forget who's taking you home
Or in who's arms you're gonna be
So darling save the last dance for me
Oh baby, won't you save the last dance for me
Oh, you make a promise
That you'll save the last dance for me
Save the last dance
The very last dance
For me" - เพลง
we who grew up in this era were so lucky,,,,,,,kids today have NO CLUE
Unfortunately they don't have
The days without cell phones and computers , how did we ever survive , wonderful time, I was born 1942!
we were so innocent back then, "O" how i long for those days.
1943 here.
1944 here .
@@robertlosasso4222 1943 here
1945 here.
I’m 77 years old and glad I was in my teens listening to this great band. They just don’t create songs like these anymore.
☺☺☺💜💜💜!!!! 😚🥂🌷!
You so lucky mam to be born in those wonderful years i wish i was born during those years
You've got me by two years but I was there, Take care and dance, Liz
The stuff sung today is ugly and hateful, just like the performers.
77 here, too! Born in '46 [9 months after Dad came back from WW2]. Music was music then, not noise that is passed off as music! LRG
Im 75yrs old, I love this song which brings back golden memories
😊
The realisation that the 60’s were the best days of your life.
I think it was so lovely to know that special guy gets the last dance because you love him
What a beautiful voice nice memories I love this song still listening. How are you Esme mostert ?
You should always save the last dance for the man you love.
Backstory: The guy who wrote this song was in a wheel chair due to polio. He wrote it on his wedding day as he watched his bride, a professional dancer, dance with their guests. The song gives his perspective of telling his wife to have fun dancing, but reminds her who will be taking her home and "in whose arms you're gonna be.
Check out the songs of the late 1950 thru the mid-60s and you'll see Doc Pomus' name all over the lists. A very talented and prolific songwriter from out of the Brill Building.
Thanks for sharing, my husband and I were fortunate enough to see the drifters on our honeymoon, on Jersey island back in 1990 . I'm sure there was only 1 original drifter left but they still sounded as good .
That’s lovely ❤️👍
❤
So beautiful history
Why do songs like this make we swell up with tears, I’m 71, maybe it’s nostalgia, maybe it’s a youth never to be seen again!
Me too ! a youth so wonderful but I didn't know it as I was living it now I realize how beautiful it was . ,such good times, good music, good friends .
I never thought I would see my age, remember we were raised with you will never see old age in this system, I’m in shock, but I was suspicious when my dad passed as he was supposed to have been from that generation that would never die
I definitely miss my youth. I'm glad I at least have good memories. As stated in the remake of the original Planet of the Apes movie..."Youth is wasted on the young!"
Live long and prosper! (Spock)

I'm 61 and I feel exactly the same, I think I was born a decade too late,70's could not match these 60's classics. Love your comment.
Wow! I am 82 now and what great music we had in the old days….we had to go through WW2 , we had nothing after the war, but we were satisfied with a ball and a piece of string! we had respect as well! NOW? no comment!
ans jansen ,,,i hear you!
Which you. Sorry for the spelling. To be Shure. BLOODY going Blind. Still ra
don’t forget mud pies, when we had nothing else but dirt....those were the days......
@@janycejanota2732 ,,,where were you in those days?
@@redskua watching my sister and brother dancing in was only 12 yrs old they would roll back the carpet mam wasn't best suited
Survivors of the 40s. We're still here, still listening, still dancing.
👍 Survived since the 50s…50s 60s best time of my life
I was born in 48 and am lucky enough to still be here, many of my friends weren't as lucky
@UCCTdfmxLZRO3f2Zto7uwjfw I know what you mean, Alan. I'm 78, born in '45, and have watched so many of my Dear friends leave this earth, way too early. My high school class reunion (Class of '63), is getting smaller and smaller every year.
i wasnt born until 59, but i would love to turn the clock back and be around during this era, i loved the music ,the fashion, and life itsself was so different,and people did dance, you dont see a lot of that these days anymore
The good old days. Nothing today comes close to this kind of music.
YOU GOT THAT RIGHT JOANNE NOTHING COME THAT CLOSE ANYMORE
I agrede with youJoane This dance es the most beatifull ever
I'm a '78 child and I can say I agree! We don't have to share the same era to agree with the same sentiment!
They were! Spot on!
@@jodacious46 tks
People were happy and knew how to have fun back in the day. My wish is to go back to the 1950s/early 1960s when I die.
Jen every day is a dance
That is what I am talking about.
I am 80's decade born but i alwaya love those 60's , 70's old movies songs. I do not like nowadays stuffs
I was 13 in 1959 when my first teenage love sent me the words of this song in a letter.Our ways parted when we studied at different institutions.After 50 years now being both single, we connected again and this song brought us together again online.We hope and pray that God will allow us to meet at the end of 2021 to let this song relive again for us.We pray that the covid pandemic will be conquered.
hello how are you I'm Johnny from California how about you?
I really wish you both the best and will meet again soon.
The Great LORD gave me a darling through Facebook. In 2014 i send a friendship request to an African Lady living on the bottom of Kilimandscharo. Immediately she added me as friend.
Our love was growing, and in May 2021 she came to me to Stuttgart/Germany and we married.
I am born 1955, never before married, no kids.
May our good Lord bless us all, and protect our relationship's.
@@HelmutStocker_Yc congratulations I’m very happy for you both. Blessings and happiness to you both 😊
Que lindo!
My generation both male and female were so very privileged to live through that era.
All of us are privileged to be alive now but few realize that.
These are the times of pure fun,&men danced,really danced.Gentleman,great music,morals manners.Not like today's headbanging crap.♥️♥️♥️
So true
I am 80, been my favourite song by Ben e King since I was 18. I am having it played when I go. After all it will be my last dance.
Wow. Beautifully said. I wish you well and good health Madam Barker. You have seen the world when it was much better in some ways and have lived the good life . I wish you good health.
I am 80 years also.
I am 80 also, and I wish you great memories, and peaceful days, with many precious smiles ❤.
😢😢😢😢me has hecho llorar
May God always bless you!
My wife loved dancing and would dance with anyone who asked but always had the last dance with me,I played it at her funeral❤️❤️
Sorry for your loss
@ Anthony Reynolds .
Goodness ... how lovely .

Now thats CLASS! my condolences.
@@albertstashin4371 your reply is truly awesome . 💞
Fiona Higgins, thanks for the kind words.
Born in the 1930s never ever learned to dance still cannot .. have had a great life with my wife Carol .always Take her home .Still together since the 1960 years now 2020 year,xx
Blimey you sound like my husband..he could not dance either,
Hahaha me too
I'm 73 I never could dance either great music though
God bless you
Good for you. Just keep goin. God Bess.
I am 76 years old and I agree elizabethbowick958 they do not make songs like this anymore these songs had meaning and good dance to I may be old now but gee am I glad I grew up in this generation
when music was music with meaning and fun and harmless fun at that just having a good time
enjoying life as it was then now kids don't know what they have missed out on as they won't still
be playing the crap music of today in 50-60 years time like our music is still played
my wife was an awesome dancer. She left this world 18 years ago and I still miss her so much.
I am a Dutch guy , 36 years old , not my time this music , but ow what I like this song and the dance . I think the people had a great time together , wish we had this still this time , playing and dancing on this music😍
these old songs last forever. They don't write them like this anymore.
Women dancing with such confidence...
In a dress.
Not twerking their ass to some stupid beat.
Recorded on Thursday May 19 1960. Even after 60 years still one of the best songs ever recorded. Remembering Ben E. King.
Music and songs would be NOTHING without the contribution of the 50's and 60's.
...and not a mud-slime in sight.
You are totally right!
@@cliffordhatton4444 What is a mud-slime?
TRUER WORDS NEVER SPOKEN I TOO AM A PRODUCT OF THAT ERA THE BEST MUSIC EVER
I agree
Man, I miss those days, happy vibes, and just upbeat attitudes. I can't believe we are where we are today in popular culture. Doesn't have to be the exact same thing, no no, just smiles and good natured fun.
I found this video many years ago and here it is again...My father died suddenly on Veteran's Day, 2022. he was an Air Force Veteran. We had to put our Beloved Dog Julie down on September 22, 2022. Two big losses close together....Dad and Julie, Save The Last Dance For Me.
A vintage song that never fades with every generation or era of music.A piece of history of the past era of rock and roll.
I'm 79 and being able to play all these old songs on u tube takes me back to all the memories of my young days and all the romances I had thanks u tube
N.
LOVE THESE SONGS. MEMORIES.
those were the most wonderful days. ( they say Old is Gold)
I was in high school when this came out and it was burned into my brain forever! I still love it.
We cannot change the era we live in but we can appreciate the elegance and beauty of any age. And this is up there with the best.
I am 45. I am brought up by my father listening and dancing to these. I am listening again with my dad. 🙏
Not many overweight or obese people back then because of these lively dances. 💃🕺
Mainly because of their eating habits...
Why can't there be music like this anymore !!!!! ❤
Bellísima canción
Because it takes real talent to put together a group like the Drifters.
I would give almost anything to go to a dance again. Patience.... :)
because needs talent and discipline
Because everybody is on Facebook, Tweeting, Instagram, Tik Tok doing STUPID THINGS, and the creative sub set decided why create something nice for the IDIOTS we now have living among the few normal ones.
That crazy dancing could have been me at around 15 - hell what a time it was, so grateful to have grown up in a golden age!!
This song will never fade away
I'm so happy I was alive all though this era , just loved it at the time and the most enviable memories .
MEN ... LIVE WITH THEM? LEAVE THEM? My sons continue to surprise me! Bless them and the women beside them.
This is why our grandparents lived into their 90's!
I can listen to this music all day long.
They sound like it was just yesterday, fresh as ever.
A good thing will never die;
😊😊I'm very pls to know I'm not the only one that loves😍 💖 the song but when last did you play it
@@arongunner1522 Yesterday during my audible walk. I only download special songs - limited playlist. :)
Without a doubt Glory Glory. So beautiful. RIP Ben E. King
Hello middle age and young children, 50,60,70's were excellent, God bless them all.
I love this old song. It brings back great memories of when music was music!! Thank you for sharing this!! :)
Hello- How’re you doing.?
it's true
Fantastic music not like today's crap
@@johnoneill5235 You can say that again!!!!
Ty Kathleen but it's true
This dance can never be repeated in a million years!
Does anyone remember WLS Chicago radio station, they played all these oldies but goodies. Still great music, it will never go out of style. This kind of music is ageless, takes this oldie back a long way.
Casey Kasem! Loved WLS, listened every night in Ohio!
Used to love jitterbugging back in the '60's & '70's - dancing at its absolute best - and, you can't beat the Drifters - now THAT was music!
Wish we have a time machine-bring back the good-olde days-this is music-today 2021 nothing is good music -thankyou THE DRIFTERS-GOD BLESS YOU ALL-R-I-P
I don't know why but this is one of my all time favorite songs - the dance scenes above just add even more to the song
I wonder how many of those are still alive, and how many in old people's home
sam cash. this is a drifters song, so why wouldn't it be great. even with the change in background singers you could always tell a drifters song.
@@marcellogenesi6390 i danced to those songs and i'm just fine. i'm 75 and i still jive with my daughter whom i taught to dance to this music. don't give up on us so soon.
Siiiii a vent'anni
@@marcellogenesi6390I lot of them. Too bad some of the performers can't do this song.
Definitely the best version of this wonderful song. That "uah" is to die for
Flat shoes, pony tails, sun dresses! Too much fun for words. Wonderful!!
The youth of today could only wish they could dance like this
54 yrs ago, it's our theme song. been together and enjoyed almost every minute. Love her more today than then. Thank God for the love of my life. Her name is Shirley.
Don Wallace ..... Our first date was September 16, 1966, our marriage November 30, 1974, and still together 53 years later
I wish people would dance like this again. Dancing is the best way to show your love!
I was a cpl here in the UK army. I was set to Iraq i listen to this with my brothers what a hell of a place. Every day we got hit hard 😪
Save The Dance for Me.
This is an oldie but a goodie too.
Nostalgia wins over the most of the modern music. It brings back memories of when times were Great unlike what we’re experiencing now.
Perhaps some kind of normality might return one day in the near future.
I think, we’d all like to believe miracles happen !!!! … who agrees with me???
Pretty girls, people having fun, no tattoos, no chips on shoulders, rap, great, bloody great.
I love this music. My mother taught me ballroom dancing and this particular rhythm lent itself to some real spectacular steps, especially if rehearsed. Alas, I'm 75 and mother is long gone RIP Mum.
I can feel u. Rip to your mom.. I m 17 from India... And i love this song. Two people from two different places loving a song .. Whoa.. I hope I could have met y'all.
hello how are you I'm Johnny from California how about you?
loved this song when I was sixteen and still do
❤ich kann kein Englisch
This was when men were dancing rock in a....suit. The beautiful and classy '50s.
Lovely song! Brings back memories of my good old days.
Back in those days was the most beautiful thing I could ever imagine
Of all all my
When your were 5 because you look 19 now
we are lucky to have enjoyed the
original music of the 40s,50s,60s,
etc.,etc.,,& now, at "riper ages",
we hear,feel,enjoy the music just
like a new hit on the radio 💃😍
😊😊I'm very pls to know I'm not the only one that loves😍 💖 the song but when last did you play it
If only! We turn the clock back to those wonderful times.
And how !! ❤️❤️❤️😉
Absolutely fabulous - brings back wonderful memories !
Yes Jean very wonderful.
I can't dance for shit but I can sure as hell watch these people do it all day long - and not a crutch hanging out anywhere!
Watching my grandparents and parents generation dance and having fun, makes me smile. I love it!
Hello how are you doing
😊😊I'm very pls to know I'm not the only one that loves😍 💖 the song but when last did you play it
hello how are you I'm Johnny from California how about you?
If your grandparents enjoy it, you be to young to remember it the music list, t it
Love this song, takes me back to my teenage years
Women were basic fitting into gender stereotypes back then, I’m so happy we broke past that and can dress however we want
@@nieveee6731 I lived both generations and lived them both . I was only a kid in the 1950s but danced with my teen brother to help him practice.
Me too Jenny
I agree 100 %. I’ve been visiting all the oldies such happiness.
Helle!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day.. Stay Safe!
The kids of today think they invented "dance" - they've got nothing compared to this!
right, nothing new under the sun
They do not dance or move in the same way, that generation danced smile and enjoyed but did you notice NO torn jeans t shirts just a clean smart generation, DO MISS IT, but I left it behind and can only listen now T
22Jeanie totally agree!!! 👍🏽👏🏽
22Jeanie Northen Soul Dancing.

Under the Boardwalk
Play Under the Boardwalk
@@johnmantovani7285 There's a video on you tube of Bruce Willis performing ' Under the boardwalk ' with The Drifters.
We use to dance like this
In The 60's I was happy, living in Eskilstuna. The first time I saw Aina she Saved The last dance for me and later we was marred ❤️
Handsome. Looks like royal family. You also had a loving bond with your special Mom. The greatest thing is that you get to hold on to those sweet memories (yours) & can sometimes fill the gap. I'll put the icing on the cake & try to fill the void for us both.🎉🎉❤❤😢😊
I recall dancing like that in the 40s, it was really great. I had a brother who really was good at that.The girls went crazy over him. But them were the days, just can't forget.
This song is eternal That is what I call dancing Miss that wonderful time
I like the dancing first up, it's such a light footed grace, seems like they are floating
2020 and I still love this song
Hi dear,how are you?
Age is just a number. We can still dance listening to songs like this . It does move my body while listening n seeing this video. Love from Singapore. 🙂
It's 2022 and 2:00 O'clock in the morning.... but my feet are tapping to the beat and wanting me to dance 😃😃😃
Me too !
February 7th, 2022 I still love this beautiful song back to my teenage years
And me love my dancing happy to dance until after 02:00 and beyond if needed or energy doesn’t run out
Warum schreiben Sie das nicht in unserer deutschen Sprache. Diese ist schöner als anderes Gelabere.
Love the way men and women danced the same way 50s was a great era
This song is great and the dancing is fantastic when kids could have great time 💃🕺👍
“Swing” didn’t stay around long enough. It’s making a comeback in some cities. What great fun!
Such a fabulous song! Always will be!🧡🧡
That’s the type of music we need nowadays and places to attend across Belfast and ARDs and Bangor and North Down
Grown folk music priceless these young whipper snappers no nothing about 🕺🏼
To right. I'm 30. But grew up with music from 50 60 80 and obv 90s. I hate today's music. I have my parents and my grandparents for the lovely music I listened to. R.i.p nan xx miss u
Love this song so much and the dance...so amazing...brings back all the memories
Hi dear,how are you?
Thats what you call dancing! Good old days
Janet Cox
Janet Cox 7
your so right and the music was so good back then
Janet Cox
they are hilariously off beat dude lol
Good times even in the 60s this generation will never know xx
This is just great,when music was danced to all night long,And songs meant something and had meaning.Thats why I love rock&roll.
What a truly fun filled era to have lived in when people knew how to have good clean fun and enjoy life..look at what we have now. alcohol, drugs , terrorism and greedy bankers
My wife and I have been married for 54 years and we are still in love, my wife is the best woman jiver in my opinion ever, she is still my super star
good for you and the best of luck to you both
The ladies looked so gorgeous in those dresses.
most of the songs i know are from 50's to 80's 'cause my father and uncles are all eloctronic technicians, jute boxes are provided by my father to some restaurants during those days ...i was born in the year 1957..music during those times are really pleasant to the ear to hear and very enticing.😍😊!!
Hi dear,how are you?
