    Ricky Nelson is probably one of the most underrated singers in American music history. He was the youngest singer ever to have a Number 1 album. From 1957 to 1962, Nelson had 30 Top-40 hits, more than any other artist except Presley and Pat Boone. His video of Travelin` Man is considered the first ever music video. He placed 53 songs on the Billboard Hot 100, and its predecessors, between 1957 and 1973, including "Poor Little Fool" in 1958, which was the first number 1 song on Billboard magazine's then-newly created Hot 100 chart. He recorded 19 additional Top 10 hits and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on January 21, 1987. Nelson is widely credited as a forerunner of the California-based country-rock scene of the 1970s. Ricky/Rick sold in excess of 500 million albums, and even today he is ranked the 4th biggest singles seller of all time. The Nelson family (Ricks Father Ozzie Nelson, rock legend Rick Nelson, and Ricks twin sons Matthew & Gunnar) are in the Guinness Book of World Records as the ONLY family in Entertainment with 3 successive generations of #1 hitmakers.

      I saw Ricky Nelson playing in some mom-and-pop restaurant with alcohol type place. He was with his Stone Canyon Band. Must have been in the early 80s. I had always thought of him as a teen idol on the level of Fabian. I was blown away. Still as handsome as ever, of course, but he just put on a great show from his wonderful catalog.

    Glad you are doing more of Ricky Nelson's songs. He had so many hits such as "I'm Walkin'", "A Teenager's Romance", "You're My One & Only Love", "Be-Bop Baby", "Believe What You Say", "I Got A Feeling", "Hello Mary Lou", "It's Late", "Stood Up", "Waitin' In School", "Just A Little Too Much", "Travelin' Man", "Young World", "Lonesome Town" "Never Be Anyone Else But You", "Sweeter Than You", "It's Up To You", "Teen Age Idol" & "Garden Party". Sadly Ricky Nelson died in a plane crash on New Year's Eve 1985 at the age of 45.

      @@corinnepmorrison1854 They got it from the old man, apparently young women all loved the Oz, he didn't try, he just had "it". Those family sitcoms from the 50s got a very bad rap for no good reason with people saying they were unrealistic. I knew Leave It to Beaver was closer to my childhood than anything I had ever seen and after just seeing Ozzie and Harriet about ten years ago it was a good show as well. They were a very talented family and if you look at the credits the whole family was involved (Ozzie's brothers and their kids)

    Ricky Nelson "Lonesome Town" is a very sad song. Timeless. "Travelin Man" and "Hello Mary Lou, Goodbye Heart" are two more catchy tunes he sang as a teenage idol. He tells a good story of his life in the song "Garden Party" -- "Yoko brought her walrus, there was magic in the air" -- great company, great message too I suppose.

    This song was based on a true story written by one of Rick's friends Sharon Sheeley. The story was about her short-lived relationship with Don Everly of the Everly Brothers. Rick sang all his songs with feeling, he is my favorite singer of all time. He was an amazing actor, singer, songwriter, musician, dancer, and father. ❤

    Ricky Nelson was a teen idol back in the fifties and he was on a television sitcom with his parents and older brother, David! The show was called Ozzie and Harriet (their parents)! My mom used to watch the show as a girl! Sadly, he died in a small plane crash in 1985 after making a musical comeback! His daughter Tracy Nelson is also an actress.❤❤

Like I said Elvis didn't even have a record or record label yet, when little Ricky Nelson was singing.

He was on a TV show with his goody-two-shoe parents, called “THE ADVENTURES OF OZZIE & HARRIET,” along with their two sons, Ricky and David Nelson.⭐️ When I was bored, I used to watch reruns, until something more exciting came on, like Batman, or Gillian’s Island!!! 😉😂😂🤣🤣🤪🤪 ⭐️ Ricky did come out with a song in the early 70’s called “GARDEN PARTY.” I did enjoy that.particular one, perhaps, you cool play it? Just a suggestion! ⭐️

    The song that teaches what goes around, comes around. I loved Ricky Nelson, had a school girl crush on him in my early teens, bought his singles, but by the mid 60’s he got a pretty much washed away by the British Invasion. I never bought an album, kind of ventured off into Beatles, Rolling Stones, & the like, Heart, Tina, ONJ, Queen, but always loved him, that beautiful face, & voice, & remember the New Year’s we lost him in a plane crash, think ‘83, still a young man. It was heartbreaking.

    I grew up watching THE ADVENTURES OF OZZIE AND HARRIET in the 50s. Ricky was their youngest son and about my same age. I watched him grow into a teen and perform his first song on their show. He was a big hit in those days. Also, he was in the western movie RIO BRAVO with Dean Martin and they sing a song together in that. Just wonderful. It was heartbreaking to lose Ricky.

I certainly understand why now in my old age. He was so handsome, so sweet, and what a voice. No wonder my cousins’ generation (about 10 + years older than me) were infatuated with him.

    This is the very first song I played in public, (it's very easy to play you see). So I have very fond memories of it. The place was in Singapore where I learned to play in local bands. 50 years later I went back to Singapore got up in a club, told the audience ''My first performance was in this town and this is the song I played'' and played it again. I still play it. :) I'm British and currently live in Prague. I think Ricky Nelson had a portrait in the attic.

    Gee Ricky, what a great song to sing to get all the girls to feel sorry for you, [not that it would take much], and then you can have all the girls paying attention to you, hahahahaha. when I was a little boy, every week Rick would be on Tv acting in hos parents sitcom, and singing a song at the end at least every other episode or so. That's where I learned how to sing and phrase. Rick and hos parents and brother helped bring rock and roll into America's living room. Beautiful voice, understated, excellent phrasing, but when the moment came where he would cut loose...that was special: th-cam.com/video/kSsY1v7-btk/w-d-xo.html

    Ricky Nelson is considered the first teen idol ........no not Elvis. I still have all his old original albums still. ' It's up to you' and 'Travelin' man', 'it's late' and 'stood up' were probably my favorites in those early years.

    Please do a video or two featuring his sons' band, Nelson. Probably best known are "(Can't Live Without Your) Love & Affection" and "After the Rain"

    Ricky starred with his parents on the Ozzie and Harriet show. (Before our time) He went on to have a successful recording career. He adapted with the song Garden Party. He died in aplane crash. Look up the information about the crash, very interesting. His twin sons Nelson's had a good run of hits in the 90s. Great reaction!

    I had such a bad crush on Ricky. He never got enough credit for his music. He died in a plane crash. After the fire, he was found protecting his fiance from the flames.

    His song Teenage Idol. People think being an idol is fun, lots of people around who only want something from you, but at the end of the you are alone. You wake up asking where am I today. Do these people like me for me or my status, fame, money.

    Girl, please share more of your voice. Shawn is right to say that you have a lovely voice. Your ability to express yourself in such a vulnerable way shows that you are in a meaningful and happy relationship. I believe that you are having a big impact on couples that want to be happy and keep it real. Thanks for being yourselves and giving to others even when it might be difficult to do so. It isn't always easy to be the optimist when so much pessimism surrounds, but it is rewarding to know that you have helped to keep up the spirits of those more easily discouraged. Thanks for sharing portions of your lives with us. It is sometimes difficult to meet with people you once knew when this music had its greatest impact on you and watching you two experience music that is great and has a personal impact makes a connection. We live in a segmented yet integrated world (through technology) and thus the genre of the reaction video was created. Keep up the great work. You are needed. Cheers from Canada

    Ricky Nelson's "Lonesome Town" is a tender and fragile ballad to which you should react. It is a good sequel to "Poor Little Fool".

    THIS CLASSIC IS FROM THE SPRING /SUMMER, OF 1958 ; I WAS 11 Y/O, IN 6TH GRADE. IT IS WORTH NOTING THAT RICK NELSON HATED THIS SONG AT 1ST, & DID NOT WANT TO RECORD IT. HOWEVER, AS IT BECAME HIS ALL-TIME BIGGEST SELLING HIT SONG, HIS MIND CHANGED. I HAVE MY ORIGINAL 45, AGAIN, COSTING ME ALL OF 49 CENTS. ----------MJL, 75 Y/O
