Cleftones - Can't We Be Sweethearts

The Cleftones singing their hit "Can't We Be Sweethearts" back in 1993.
Lyrics:
Can't we be sweethearts
Why don't we fall in love
Right from the start,
You're the girl I'm dreamin' of
Oh don't you know
Don't you know I really love you so
Please by my sweetheart
Don't you know the way I feel
Please play the part
And make my dreams come real
Oh don't you know,
Don't you know I really love you so
We'd walk hand in hand in our wonderland
The world would be our own
I'd make love to you, lovin' kisses too
You'd be mine alone
Why don't we fall in love
Right from the start,
You're the girl I'm dreamin' of
Oh don't you know
I really love you so.
We'd walk hand in hand in our wonderland
The world would be our own
I'd make love to you, lovin' kisses too
You'd be mine alone
Can't we be sweethearts
Why don't we fall in love
Right from the start,
You're the girl I'm dreamin' of
Oh don't you know
Don't you know I really love you so.

I try to enjoy old music but sometimes I tear up wishing I could experience it in person lol. I hate to sound like every other person saying this but sucks being only 21. Wish I could’ve seen stuff like this and 80’s music concerts

The real deal deal from a first rate jamaica , queens grown, trad group,. They sounded damn fine in 1993, with no hellacious lip synching.

I loved Herb's boyish voice on the originals.

[@doowopdan1879]

Original first tenor Charlie James is singing bass on this!

[@jennifermeltzer239]

That's Nick Saunders singing bass.

[@dangreenfield8384]

@@jennifermeltzer239 I think you're mostly right. I know Nick was the permanent bass after Charlie retired, but on this, Charlie is doing the bo-bo-bo-bo's at the beginning, and then later in the song Nick does some of them, and back to Charlie, and so forth. When I saw them in the mid-80s, it was just Herb, Tony Gaines and Charlie, and Charlie dropped down from his original tenor part to sing bass. My guess is that when they're doing the straight harmony (as opposed to the bass riffs), Nick did the bass part and Charlie sang baritone because that is closer to their natural ranges, but it's impossible to tell by watching.

Can't we be sweethearts
Why don't we fall in love
Right from the start,
You're the girl I'm thinking of
Oh can't you see
You're the only girl for me
Please be my sweetheart;
Don't you know the way I feel
Please play the part;
And make my dreams come real
Oh don't you know,
Don't you know I really love you so
We'd walk hand in hand in our wonderland
The world would be our own
I'd make love to you, lovin' kisses too
You'd be mine alone
Please be my sweetheart
Don't you know the way I feel
Please play the part;
And make my dreams all real
Oh don't you know,
Don't you know I really love you so
