"You Belong To Me" is one of the most beautiful songs ever written and recorded!! It's been sung many times by different artists............always gorgeous!
I heard this on the radio today. My parents were the class of '56 and '60. I know every word. I love this song. RIP Mom & Dad, I can still see you together, great memories.
When I was In the Navy and at sea and away from the one I loved so dearly. I would sing this song to myself and think about the that girl, my new bride, my new wife, my true love ane how I missed her and wishing that I was with her. The song would help bring me closer to her.
HEY LARRY I WAS IN THE NAVY IN 1971 AND THIS SONG GAVE ME PEACE AND HOPE! WELL, IT DIDN'T WORK OUT WELL AFTER DISCHARGE FROM THE US NAVY. BUT I FOUND SOMEONE MORE SPECIAL AND EXCEPTIONAL THANK GOD! BEST WISHES
I was deeply saddened when I learned of Mike Kelly's passing, he truly had a wonderful voice. I have been a Dupree's fan all my life and, Mike's passing was very hard to hear. God Bless you Mike for all the Doo-Wop that you gave us, you are in all your fans prayers.
Mike Kelly was my number one favorite of the Duprees. Years later I liked Richie Rosato. But I liked all of the others too and was sad that some of them died very very young. RIP. ♥️♥️♥️
The game Mafia 3 got me loving this song! Every time it comes on in game on the radio I make sure to listen to it in full. And this coming from a guy who likes heavy music like Slipknot and Killswitch Engage. Lmao. What a timeless and beautiful song!
Love this song, I remember dancing this with a special guy at a Dance and he had his own band there that night and he surprised me with a dance. Will never forget him or that dance...
this was my grandma & grandpas wedding song. it means so much to my family and my grandma died october 22nd 2014. everytime i listen to this song i feel so upset. i love & miss you everyday grandma
Love it, this is when music was meaningful. The singers dressed nice and the words to the songs were decent. Also the harmony was great. Thank you for posting this.
This was the group as I remember them. The one and only. Not the current groups that try to act like they are the originals. Don't represent yourself as an original group if you don't have original members
I can barely focus on the song because I get lost in the look and smile of Mike Kelly he really was so handsome and his original voice was even more beautiful I love my love my love performed by this wonderful singer, I wish it had gotten all the recognition it deserved. I love it The Duprees, Mike Kelly my favorite, the best voice ❤❤❤
In 1963, single performers or groups, with number one hits, performed at after prom parties. Can you believe that? All white North Allegheny High School, north of Pittsburgh, booked the Platters for our after prom party. A higher power in the district nixed the all black group coming to the school and another group was booked to perform. It was the Duprees. The original four guys seen this video, are who we watched, listened to and danced to. With my memory fading, I believe it was May, maybe June of 1963. Fifty three years ago. WOW.
OMG. WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SONG. SUNG BY THE BEST. RIP MIKE. WHAT A GORGEOUS LOOKING GUY. WOW. AND THE VOICE TO MATCHM SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG. WISH THEY HAD SONGS LIKE THIS NOW. BUT FORGET IT. THISE BEAUTIFUL SONGS R ALL JUST MEMORIES. WISH WE COULD GO BACK. RIP . .🥰😇😥😥😥👏👏
The voice you hear is original lead vocalist Joey Van . The person in the video is Mike Kelly lip-sinking to Joey Vans record with the Duprees hit, You Belong To Me. Mike was not very happy about it at the time as well. Tommy P
Recorded in July, 1962, the Duprees were from Jersey City, NJ. Joey Canzano (i.e. Vann) was the lead singer and one of the very best. This is a remake of a Jo Stafford hit from 1962. The flip side of the record was Take Me As I Am. Joey Vann died at age 41 in 1984.
1952 to 1962 to 2007 - great songs are forever - love this song and came here because of Jo Stafford & Rose McGowen - thank you for posting this video AND song - Cheers, DAVEDJ
Im cousins with Joey Santollo, my dad tells me the stories of how he would drive down to jersey from Yonkers and have dinner with them and my aunts and uncles and how my aunt would always say how their manager was a bum, good times
I hired the Duprees for my Senior Prom in 1965 and they made it a night to remember. Didn't know how to book them so I looked up all the J. Santolla's in the Jersey City phonebook and cold-called him. I got him on the first call. I fhad ound his name on the flip side of one of their 45's.
I close my eyes, and I can forget about everyday stress. I really like the lyrics of "Fly the ocean in a silver plane..." Mike Kelly was a great singer. RIP
A nice fall evening in Central Jersey parked alongside the canal running the kength of the Black Horse Pike. Sandy in my arms with this particular song playing on the radio. Oh what a night shouldv'e been the next disk to be played as it sure was one I'll never forget.
Most , if not all american artists struggled or died off during the British invasion. A sad time in our music history. You are the 1st person who EVER agreed with me on this subject. Thanx for your comments...Johnnie
Mike Kelly - April 19, 1944 - August 7, 2012. The Best! For those in doubt: 'No man can judge another, for no man truly knows another, nor yet himself' Religio Medici.
You Belong To Me Duprees See the pyramids along the Nile Watch the sun rise on a tropic isle Just remember, darling, all the while You belong to me. See the marketplace in old Algiers Send me photographs and souvenirs But remember when a dream appears You belong to me.

My condolences on your loss. When my parents were married in 1953, only the instrumental version of this song was available, but my Mom always referred to it as their wedding song. I made sure the DJ at my Dad's 80th birthday party had the song…ands he told the world in general that it was not the same version to which they danced on the night they were wed. - Dr Joey
IT IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG AND THEN MIKE KELLY 'S VOICE IS SO BEAUTIFUL AAND THAT PRETTY SMILE MAKES IT JUST AWESOME! WOW! THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER GROUP LIKE THE ORIGINALS.
These songs are, were real music....I was born in 65 but grew up with these and never get enough.....and nothing like hearing these songs in Brooklyn NY....Bensonhurst, Bay Ridge, Sheepshead Bay, these are the places/the fans of such music, that made these songs such huge hits for the most part...and still do.
I love this. No war, drugs, sex. Just pure soothing sounds.
The 60s Were Pure Sex And Drugs, Well That Was 1962, A Few Years After Things Started To Be Like That.
Favorite Doo woo song for on your car and drive-in favorites
Nothing wrong with war, drugs or sex as topics in songs if used for engaging and constructive purposes.
War , drugs , sex exploitation unfortunately imposed on general population by those elites who can not feel satisfied by any level of wealth or power.
You hit the nail right on the head brother. Can't wait until summer to go to a car cruise. ❤
My husband passed away two months ago. This was OUR SONG
Had them at a high school dance in North Bergen NJ. They were great. That was back in 1963.
They played at my high school prom in '67 . Queen of Peace HS in North Arlington, NJ
I heard that they practiced in the beginning in the Jersey City parks men's rooms to get that echo sound.
They played at my high school prom in Fair Lawn, NJ in 1964.
My grandmothers prom was the Beach Boys. You guys got awesome bands :(
"You Belong To Me" is one of the most beautiful songs ever written and recorded!!

Georgette Serio Jo Stafford had a huge hit in 1952 with this song, way before The Duprees recorded it. Look her up here in TH-cam.

An All-Timer, for sure. The harmony is just terrific.
The Duprees are one of my all-time favorite groups!! I love every song they recorded!! Beautiful sound!!🎶❤️🎶

thank you tomi i knew lip-sinking was involved thought it was mikes real voice.
As I have noted, you Tommy are a wonderful continuance of the marvelous group, the Duprees.
Thank you, Tommy. We've thoroughly enjoyed your recent performances. On which songs can we hear Mike Kelly's lead voice?
My Love My Love, Let them talk
Mike Kelly was a great singer!
I almost thought the singer was a younger version of you, Tommy! He lifts his right eye brow just like you do!
Loveeeeeeee❤❤❤
Nostalgic & beautiful!

RIP Mike Kelly love is music and his smile...
RIP Mike Kelly
That's Joey Vann singing & smiling & looking a dream

One of the GREATEST of that era, when music still had melody. Once you take the melody out it is no longer music....
1952 to 1962 to 2007 - great songs are forever - love this song and came here because of Jo Stafford & Rose McGowen - thank you for posting this video AND song - Cheers, DAVEDJ
Im cousins with Joey Santollo, my dad tells me the stories of how he would drive down to jersey from Yonkers and have dinner with them and my aunts and uncles and how my aunt would always say how their manager was a bum, good times
Glad u mention Joey because some think this is Joey voice but u see here again others say this is Mike Kelly singing?
I hired the Duprees for my Senior Prom in 1965 and they made it a night to remember. Didn't know how to book them so I looked up all the J. Santolla's in the Jersey City phonebook and cold-called him. I got him on the first call. I fhad ound his name on the flip side of one of their 45's.
Can't get much better than this, wonderfull old time music, Mom&Pop era but 'timeless'
Amazing upload, thanks so much, stunning👍
One of the best vocal group records of all time.
My great uncle Joe is one of the original members!

the lead singer is so so so easy on the eyes.
As long as I live, I will listen to this beautiful song, gratitude to whoever posted this video.🏵
It is a great song and these guys do a great job singing it.

You Belong To Me
Duprees
See the pyramids along the Nile
Watch the sun rise on a tropic isle
Just remember, darling, all the while
You belong to me.
See the marketplace in old Algiers
Send me photographs and souvenirs
But remember when a dream appears
You belong to me.
I'll be so alone without you
Maybe you'll be lonesome too---and blue
Fly the ocean in a silver plane
Watch the jungle when it's wet with rain
Just remember till you're home again
You belong to me

I would love to know who he is looking at that is making him smile so beautifully while singing. I adore this song.
40 years later and they can still do it....
Funny truth, you where just happier back then. You smiled, held the door for women, to where a polite man then, unlike now.
Great to see the original Duprees. Much better than the present group.
Вспомним !!!

This was real love music, wow
This is such awesome music. It's way better than what's out there today, love it.
...a lot of GI's were motivated by tunes such as this.
I wish I had known this guy..amazing..melts me..
