Gold wrote that this song was "sort of dedicated" to his musical partner Brock Walsh and his manager Norman Epstein. The song was later re-recorded by Cynthia Fee to serve as the theme song for the NBC sitcom The Golden Girls - XO
Andrew Gold passed away in 2011, wrote this, he an extremely talented individual, multi instrumentalist a producer. He was Linda Ronstadt’s Lead Guitarist and Music Manager. Listen to ‘Lonely Boy’
His mother is Marni Nixon, a wonderful famous singer who dubbed the songs for many lead actresses in musicals whose voices weren't up to par. This was a fantastic musical family.
I became an ardent fan of Andrew Gold many years before this hit song was chosen to be the theme for The Golden Girls.
So so underrated is Andrew Gold
Lonely boy was a big hit of his in the 70s and i LOVE it! It should be next by him! 💞
Fabulous song and television series. Golden Girls originally aired from September 14, 1985 - May 9, 1992. Rest in peace Golden Girls and Andrew Gold.
BUT the song was RELEASED IN 1978 ...
This song was on Andrew's 1977 LP "What's Wrong With This Picture?", which featured his hit "Lonely Boy". This was long before the "Golden Girls" were around, but Andrew made a fortune in royalties from them.
As a huge fan of The Golden Girls since my teens, I'm in shock that I never knew this original version existed. I kind of choked up from the nostalgia hearing it, I never missed a show back then.
Song was written several years before Golden Girls, and is such an amazing message.
Always loved this song!!! It keeps me appreciative of my great friends!!!
Per Songfacts Seven years after this song was a hit for singer/songwriter Andrew Gold, it became the theme from the NBC sitcom The Golden Girls, which ran from 1985-1992. A jingle singer named Cynthia Fee sang the TV version.
With lyrics about a friendship that endures into old age, the song is remarkably appropriate for the show:
And when we both get older
With walking canes and hair of gray
Have no fear, even though it's hard to hear
I will stand real close and say,
"Thank you for being a friend"
And when we die, and float away
Into the night, the Milky Way
You'll hear me call, as we ascend
I'll say your name
Then once again
Thank you for being a friend
A beautiful song to dedicate to any friend who has been there for you
Jesus Christ Can be the best Friend you will ever have. HE DIED FOR ALL YOUR SINS Past present and future. When you realize that he did that for you personally HE WILL CHANGE YOUR HEART FOR EVER...
The looks on y’all’s faces when u realized what it was, was absolutely priceless….I rewound and watched 10 times 😂 I swear I love y’all
My group of girlfriends and I used to sing this together in elementary school when it first came out. It became our theme song for every party, sleepover, get together, and our class even sang it at our prom. Best memories ever! ❤
Andrew Gold did not make this for 'The Golden Girls', this song came out in 1978 and 'The Golden Girls' debuted in 1985. This song is bitter sweet for me. I had a friend who use to say that this song made her think of me, that the words in it, is how she felt about me as her friend, I had considered her as my best and only TRUE friend, then she decided being friends with me was too much work, that is thanks to my first husband, so much for that, huh? I still like this song anyway. Thanks for this video reaction!
Hi Shawn and Mellllllllll 🎶🎶🎶😍😍 I had a big smile on my face watching your reactions!!
Please react to Andrew Gold's song "Lonely Boy" sometime - I think you'd really like it!
I am obsessed with the Golden girls!❣️❣️❣️ they are my absolute favorite show ❤ I have their Christmas ornaments 😆 👏🏼👌🏼
Andrew Gold was a singer, songwriter & record producer of pop/soft rock music in the 1970s. Gold played on many records by other artists, most notably Linda Ronstadt. He had some good songs on his own such as "Lonely Boy", "Thank You for Being A Friend" (theme for "The Golden Girls"), "Never Let Her Slip Away" etc. He died in 2011 at the age of 59.
Love you 😍 both and I as a Central American (Guatemala 🇬🇹) guy will always support you both!!!
Love your reaction to this song, such great memories 💕🤗 thanks for being kind friends!!!!😊
I happen to be in love with Andrew‘s song called, lonely boy. It’s so so good to me! Take care, Shawn and Mel!
Golden Girls came out in the 80's.
Song was written in 1978.
Thank you..from the depths of my soul.. for reacting to this song.
Only 2 Reviewers..posted this song .
One of my all-time favorite songs.
Brought me such joy to watch you enjoy it.
xo
Oh my, the countless times I've watched the whole seven series of 'The Golden Girls'. At one time, years ago now, here in the UK you could only buy - and I did - the last two series for the German market with German subtitles! That opening section of the series with the music, clips, and the exterior of the house....damn, I so wanted that house! Thank you, darlings, for bringing all that back. Robert, UK.
Fun trivia: Andrew Gold is the son of actress-singer Marni Nixon. You may not recognize her name or face but Marni Nixon's singing voice you might recognize. She dubbed the singing voices for Natalie Wood's songs in 1961's "West Side Story" and for Audrey Hepburn's songs in 1964's "My Fair Lady" and for Deborah Kerr's songs in 1956's "The King and I."
My favourite tv show too and now I AM a golden girl!!! 🖖🏻🇨🇦❤️
Love Andrew Gold. He wrote this song himself, and released in 1978. Other great songs by AG are (imo)
"Lonely Boy" 1976
"Never Let Her Slip Away" 1978
"How Can This Be Love" 1978
❤🎶🎼🎙
Now I hope enough people tell you about Lonely Boy! You will love it also!!
Andrew Gold also produced Linda Ronstadt and plays the mean guitar solo in "You're no good"
Gold’s biggest hit was Lonely Boy
You guys need to check out Andrew's other song "Lonely Boy" which was a hit too.
Lonely Boy Andrew Gold had a band with Graham Gouldman called Wax UK...and had a couple hits, "Right Between The Eyes" and "Bridge To Your Heart"...
Love the Golden Girls and this song. So impressed he knew the song first! Good man lol
This song from the 70s Golden Girls in the 80s. Andrew played in Linda Ronstadt's band for many years. Piano and Guitar. Helped arrangements some. They were good friends. Not her manager though as some have said. That was Peter Asher for most of her career.
Besides his solo material, for a short time, Andrew Gold was also a replacement member of 10cc, when their original core members Kevin Godley & Lol Creme, left the band to make their own albums and direct music videos. It was after the whole band broke up that Gold and Graham Gouldman got back together to form Wax UK, which other people have mentioned in these comments.
Thank you Shawn and Mel- for being our friend ♥
Andrew Good was instrumental in the success of Linda Ronstadt as multi-instrumentalist and arranger on a number of her 70's hits.
The Golden Girls came out in 1985. They used this song, but it was first done by Andrew Gold back in.... '78, I think?
I loved ur faces when it started sounding familiar!❤️❤️❤️
Hi guys, I believe if I remember right this song came first. I remember hearing it on the radio all the time and was surprised when I first watched the Golden Girls and heard it being used as the theme song. I had a sweet elderly friend that used to tell me jokingly when I was young: "Girl, I have forgotten more than you have ever known". I am starting to get to that "forgetting part". :) Sometimes I think I remember something from the past and I am so certain, and then I am proved wrong. I should probably just Google stuff more and not rely on just my memory.
The song did come first . A dark story about this song is it was used at the end of a tape recording sent by a hoaxer to police who were investigating a UK serial Killer called the Yorkshire Ripper . I am an Andrew Gold fan . He also had hits with Never Let Her Slip Away , How Can this be Love and Lonely Boy . He later collaborated with Graham Gouldman of 10CC and formed a group called Wax and their biggest hot was Building a Bridge to Your Heart .
Biggest hit .
The Golden Girls first aired in 1985. Two of the actresses were on the TV “Maude” in the 70’s.
When Shawn dedicated this song to Mel..I cried.
I love that you talked about your Grandma, Mel. Sweet memories❣ When I was a little girl, I used to watch Sanford and Son and Chico and the Man with my great grandmother in littlebitty Clayton, Oklahoma.🙂 love you and Shawn and your reactions. ❤❤
Perfect song for "The Golden Girls". He had other very nice songs, as well.
Andrew Gold's mother was singer Marni Nixon. Marni did overdub singing for Natalie Wood in "Westside Story", Deborah Kerr in "The King and I" and Audrey Hepburn in "My Fair Lady". She also played Sister Sophia in the 1965 movie musical "The Sound of Music ". She was the go to person when producers needed to replace the singing voices of actresses whose singing abilities were not up to par.
Produced and written by late Andrew Gold and Brock Walsh. Suggested video 📹: Lonely Boy. RIP Andrew Gold.
A number of other TV 📺 shows have popular songs. Bosom Buddies used My Life by Billy Joel. Dweebs used You May Be Right also by Billy Joel. Greatest American Hero used Believe It or Not by Joey Scarbury. Friends used I'll Be There for You by The Rembrandts, late Allee Willis, Danny Wilde, David Crane and Marta Kauffman.
RIP Allee Willis. Back in 1980, she and Bryan Adams wrote Wait and See, which appeared in his debut album. Willis was a co writer of September for Earth Wind and Fire 🔥 and wrote What Have I Done to Deserve This with The Pet Shop Boys.
WOW!
Love this song...especially the extended tv version of the show...
You should also listen the song NEVER LET HER SLIP AWAY also by Andrew Gold.
My favourite Andrew Gold song and a beautiful love song .
Played guitar with Linda Ronstadt
Try "Lonely Boy" by him
Great story song
GG was 80's- this was 70's. Love you
Mel's shirt of The Golden Girls is amazing.Tony
Rewatch your reaction to Linda Ronstadt's Tracks of My Tears and you will see Andrew in the band.
Nah this was a hit first, then it was used for golden girls. It reminds me of a lot of good times.
Best show ever - GOLDEN GIRLS
Your response is awesome
This song --> 1978
Golden Girls --> 1985
This song came out in the 70s and the Golden girls started in 1983
My 8th Grade Class Song in 1978
Check out Lonely Boy by Andrew Gold too ..a masterpiece ❤ also Never let her slip away ❤
This song came out, in probably’78, and Golden Girls came on in about ‘85 or ‘86.
♥️ this song. ♥️ The Golden Girls.
This was released about 8 years before the Golden Girls
this song was out in 1978
Was this a recording from the Gilbert O'Sullivan show because he's providing keyboard/backing vocals here? Gilbert O'Sullivan would be another artist to react to - I think you may have done 'Alone Again Naturally' already but there are many others as good.
It preceded The Golden Girls
👍👍👍
I never knew that the TV show wasn't the original until last year. I thought it was just a short song for the openjng credits of a TV show,, like Different Stokes, Perfect Strangers, Full House and other shows had. Even I like the original, I love this original version better.
The Golden Girls was on in the '80s
You should check out Nicolette Larson singing Lotta Love I think that she was married to Andrew Gold
Shenandoah Violin Solo - Mairead Nesbitt
I always loved this song but as I'm in my 70's now, I seem to be losing my all friends, one by one.
Golden girls is from the 1980's to early 1990's
You should react to "Lonely Boy" by Andrew Gold one day! It's a great song!
Golden Girls came out in the 1980s; ended in the early 90s.
No....The show, The Golden Girls" adopted it.
And The Golden Girls was from 1985 to 1992....not the seventies.....this song was released in 1978...I hope that clears things up for you, haha!
As long as we're listening to "oldies", and while I'm here, I'm requesting a female vocalist I'm sure you have not yet reacted to. I was reminded today of a song I haven't heard in literally decades -- "Put A Little Love In Your Heart" by Jackie DeShannon (link below). You will love the message. It's still as relevant today as it was in 1969. This song was released in 1969, and today is Jackie's 81st Birthday! Thanks! 💙✌
Put A Little Love In Your Heart - th-cam.com/video/NTxxEdBIL6Y/w-d-xo.html
The Golden Girls started in 1985.
Andrew GOLD on the GOLDEN GIRLS (well who would have thought ) ?
This came out in 1978
IS THAT GILBERT O SULIVAN ON PIANO ?
Golden girls wasn't in the 70s . It was early 80s. I get it though
Juice Newton had a hit with this onw.
