This is another group I grew up with in the 60's. They had so many great hits together such as "Sherry", "Walk Like a Man" & "Candy Girl", "Let's Hang On!", "Working My Way Back to You", "I've Got You Under My Skin" etc. When Frankie went out on his own in the 70's, the songs "My Eyes Adored You" & "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" were big hits for him. Also he had a hit with the song "Grease" from the movie. Always loved that he was able to sing in a falsetto voice.
There amazing because it’s Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. One of the greatest groups in history and yes they all sing. Sold millions and millions of records as a group and as a single.
Frankie was looking back at the drummer like "I better watch out for this kid." p.s., the other great song from that album was "Who Loves You" with Frankie back in the Lead.
Gerry Polci the drummer who sings on this went on to be a history teacher. Great drummer and singer along with Frankie! Watch Jersey Boys it’s so good it’s all about Frankie and the Four Seasons.
Love that you keep coming back to the Seasons, luckily they have the hits to explore for a long long time! This is one of the few Frankie does not sing lead.
I have probably been to a hundred concerts from Stevie Wonder to Pink Floyd Led Zeppelin Rolling Stones Etc and I have to admit this was the most fun concert I've ever been to. If you grew up with these songs you know the words and we were all up on our chairs singing. Such a great memory. Check out some more of their songs, almost every one of them was a hit
My favorite Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons song is My Eyes Adored You. It is so sweet and touching. Another favorite from Frankie’s solo career is Swearin’ to God. My husband and I had the good fortune to see Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons (current members, not the original members) a few years ago. He is still one of the greatest performers around and his voice is still incredible. He is currently 87 and still touring doing 2 hour shows with only a 5 minute break to change his shirt. Just amazing!
I remember when this was a new song on the radio….early-mid ‘70s….I was probably 11-12 years old…but Franky Valley And The four Seasons had their heyday in the previous decade…..legendary group.
I have a lot of memories of listing to this song as a kid in the late 70’s. It was for my dad’s generation (baby boomers) the lyrics “back in 63” my parents were about 15-16. It’s cool to realize the generations and the meanings of these songs.
Hi guys, I have been enjoying all the older songs you have been reacting to and would also like to suggest an artist that no one one youtube has reacted to although the artist was a worldwide hit at the time. The artist is Millie Small and the song is My boy lollipop. Keep up the great work 😁😁
There's a few bands out there that got really really great lead singers, The thing about this band is every sombitch in it can sing, each one of them are good enough singers to front their own band, and they're all grouped in the one, oh, fun fact personally in this band my favorite singer is the drummer I think he's got the best voice so I sent him a message on Facebook saying "hey you know i really dig your voice, I think your best singer and in the band" he said thank you, so we talk for about 30 minutes and I sent him a friend request,,,, and he approved it, it's weird we're friends on Facebook, not a whole lot of famous, talented people would have done that, the guy's a class act.
That was so cool! So much talent in that band. Wow! Thanks Shawn and Mel. Please check out "Rag Doll". Cool story behind it. In the 60's, Frankie Valley was driving home from the airport, and stopped at a traffic light and saw a pretty little girl about 9 years old selling flowers on a street corner. She was dressed in rags. He gave her twenty dollars and her eyes lit up in a brief exchange. He drove straight home and wrote "Rag Doll" about her. I love you guys and you really have made my day more than once.
I just realized something, after all these years of hearing this great song... A man and woman could meet, feel the connection and make it a great night... without a song calling her a "h*e or a h**ker or a sl*t. She was still considered a woman, a lady. I miss those days of equal respect given to women!
This is a great, feel good, dance song. Frankie Vallie and Four Seasons are amazing there music covered all kinds of subjects, styles and decades. My favorite song by Frankie Vallie is "My Eyes Adored You". Great pic!
I agree with everyone. Especially the part where u gotta see Jersey Boys. Not sure if u heard "Can't take my eyes off of you" but if not, do. My fav. Saw him in concert couple years back and he was awesome! So entertaining.
I was born January 1964,! Moms OBGYN said I would be born 31 December 1963. Mom said it would be 15January. It was 15 January! There! I've Said It Again #1 One week later the Beatles hit!.. The world changed!!
For those of you who don't know what the song is about let me help you, it's about young man's first sexual experience with a woman, a woman he had to pay for by the way. And as he recalled it ended much too soon, something every man can relate to.
@@briangulley6027 , I have a million times, it's his first time.But I never heard anything about paying for it. I thought you caught something I missed in the lyrics.
@@loriedwards4953 Read between the lines, I think we agree it's about a young man's first time at bat. He says, when she walked me in the room that night, who would walk a young man in a room for sex? A young girl/woman most likely wouldn't so it's either a pro or a cougar. It was common in some circles for a father to pay for his son's first time.
@@briangulley6027, Google the lyrics, He got a funny feeling, when she walked in the room. Lol, I think he came to attention. He had his first time with a beautiful stranger that he didn't even know her name. But, hey I think we both love the song. I just don't think he paid for it. Have a great evening, keep rocking!
Frankie had an original band and then a revival of the 4 seasons with these guys- 29 top 40 hits, 5 solo top 40s for him and 5 number ones- original band members from the late 50s and early 60s are all in the Rock Hall of Fame- the high singing Bass player in this version of the group was married to Frankie's daughter for a while until their divorce
I have an awesome suggestion and hope you can fit her in somewhere…Carly Simon -THAT’S THE WAY I ALWAYS HEARD IT SHOULD BE-1971. Best versus on her YT channel. It will move you when you hear it. Blessings! 🙏

The look on Mel's face when Frankie started singing was well worth it.
❤️
🌹🙏🍒 respect You're
Her expression was mediocre at best!

Every 70s songs deserve dd tto last ATLEAST 7 to 10 minutes instead of 3 minutes which was the rule at that time.
Almost to many songs to mention...
Takes me back to high school, we had the BEST music 🎵
fun fact: Frankie Valli was on Soul Train, he sung Grease (Is the Word) by the Bee Gees
Grease was ung by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. It was not by the BeeGees. It was written by Barry Gibb.
@@tiffanytosh1569 he's an technically an Bee Gee, stop being difficult😁
@@willie417 I’m not being difficult, just overly precise!😂

You guys should deep dive int this group. So many great songs! Sherry, Walk Like a Man, Rag Doll, Big Girls Don’t Cry just to name a few.
Jersey Boys 🙌
back when everyone in the band had a great voice ...even the drummer ! pure gold
The Broadway show Jersey Boys is about this band. Frankie has an incredible voice. He sang the title song Grease for the movie. So good!
I hear you Mel, but anytime is the right time 👍❤
The Four Seasons roots are '50's doo-wop, when everybody sang‼️‼️
Killer, comeback hit...
I'm so glad I grew up with great music like this on the radio. ❤️❤️❤️
Major props to drummer Gerry Polci and bass player Don Ciccone, this epic song would not have been the same without them 🎵🎶
Absolutely - brilliant, both of them. Frankie only did the bridge and he gets top billing!
One of my favorite videos - their voices are incredible - timeless tune !!!
Thank you for this my favorite group.
This is one of my all time, top ten, favorite songs and always has been ❤️
AGREE!!!
These guys, and Frankie Valli on his own are phenomenal. Huge rabbit hole to go down. Whatever you choose, you will not be disappointed. 💙🖤❤🎼🎶🎤
Gerry Polci the drummer who sings on this went on to be a history teacher. Great drummer and singer along with Frankie! Watch Jersey Boys it’s so good it’s all about Frankie and the Four Seasons.
That's strange......in his interview he said he was a music instructor for a middle school for 20 years.
WALK LIKE A MAN
FRANKIE VALLI & THE FOUR SEASONS
Polci's voice just mesmerizing. Great voice. So underrated as a vocalist.
Love that you keep coming back to the Seasons, luckily they have the hits to explore for a long long time! This is one of the few Frankie does not sing lead.
Reminds me of weekends of rollerskating with my friends
This song was played constantly on the Radio , Love it ♥️

I have some good memories brought up listening to this song.
Love Frankie Valli !
Another fantastic group of the 60's and 70's..you would also like ..big girls don't cry...and sherry ❤
Frankie Valli, the lead singer was almost deaf in one ear. He made the most of his talent.
My favorite Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons song is My Eyes Adored You. It is so sweet and touching. Another favorite from Frankie’s solo career is Swearin’ to God.

This song is pure bliss. Loved it when I was 10, love it now at 56.
Me 65 the same

Legend
One of my favorites growing up in California ❤️

Can we Just admit how great a dramer can sing? Thats not easy, i also saw the liive Performance 😮
I seen Frankie Valli in the Broadway theater about 8 or 9 years ago !! He was amazing !!! His voice is incredible

"Who Loves You, Pretty Baby?" followed '63, and smashed too!

I was just a kid when I first heard this song. It's one of my favorite songs. Thank you for sharing
gals. MUSIC OF THE 70S Is indescribable and unsurpassed!
Hi, thank you, cause when you rewind, you are kind. Love this bands story.
I just realized something, after all these years of hearing this great song...

Yes!!!! That is exactly the effect Frankie has......lol!!!
This song was about when Gordy lost his virginity. He wrote almost all their songs
Great song 🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵

Seen Frankie Valli several times. Love him
It's fun to watch you two enjoy music so much. Especially when it's your first time hearing something
It speaks volumes when the person whose name is stamped on the label shares vocals with his band mates.
This is a great, feel good, dance song. Frankie Vallie and Four Seasons are amazing there music covered all kinds of subjects, styles and decades. My favorite song by Frankie Vallie is "My Eyes Adored You". Great pic!

As a DJ in LOS ANGELES CA , i really love your LOVE for music. Your smile and happiness is the reason why I DJ....THANK you
