One of the most influencial song writers and musicians of the rock and roll years. A true gent and a magnificant talent, rejected by America and welcomed by the UK.
I love the song "The Diary", and I love the story about the song. He wrote the song and gave the song to someone else to sing and it was to be on the A side of the record, but they put it on the B side. Neil was upset, and decided to do his own version of the song and put it on the A side and it was a big HIT and.... this started his singing career!!! Neil Sedaka is the BEST!!!
Neils superb talent and a very good vibes when performs his smile that even satan himsel will become an angel again.....his voice tenor type can undergo rnb genra,ballad,classical,rock and even jazz.....i think he can bell out i dont wanna miss a thing and air supply songs....
Neil's songs were known to people all over the world in the 60's..including this southern corner of the Philippines called Jolo, Sulu where I grew up singing his songs. If you dont call that far-reaching and very popular I don't know what is. Put him in the R&RHOF now!!
According to Connie Francis Neil got the idea for this song because she kept a diary every night when she was young and he was writing songs for her. One night Neil came in and asked her what she was writing about and she wouldn't tell him. After he did it several times he gave up and wrote the song.
Yes I agree. He should be in the R&R Hall of Fame. They really are a misguided bunch over there. How can Hall and Oates not be in either. Johnny Maestro, I could go on and on.
What did you have in mind? Should we put "Doo woop", the Beatles etc, in the Pop(Doo woop) Hall of fame? If Beatles isnt a Rock group? I dont know who are?
@@lendrury2771 well life is to short to argue with someone who's opinion will never change ......... like i said he has a wife and two kids ...you can believe what you want .
@@stellertonybeller1972 why would it be necessary for you to change my opinion? You have your opinion and I respect it and I have my opinion. Thats what entitles us to our differences of opinion
@@stellertonybeller1972 i will say this however I worked with a guy for years who had a wife and 5 kids and ultimately he came out of the closet and ended up divorcing his wife and living with a guy . So you just never know. His movements and demeanor were very similar to sedakas
One of my favorites♥️
Such amazing voice. We don't have singers and songs that are written like this anymore.
I was born in early 80s I heard almost all kinds of music but only this song can make me smile nostalgic
Oh wow! Neil was so underrated as a vocalist and writer!! His songs sound as fresh now as they did in 50’s and 60’s Great!!

One of Neil's best songs
Neil is an enormous talent and the amazing quality of his voice persists through the decades!
Zafpra...My wife (R.I.P.) was from the Philippines and knew all of the Neil Sedaka songs.

I forgot I was so passionate (but still am) about Sedaka getting in that HOF! They are really stupid, stupid, stupid! Wayne Arthur
