When your dad is a Mob member and a Crooner (apparently) who's going to say anything bad? I love this version of this song but I also understand that there is more underneath than on the surface (ask thew titanic about that kind of thing).
What makes this so badass. This is just weird song, that I dont understand how is so popular. She just says something until the tempo goes down and thats why the music does not sound so good, so why this song so popular then?
@@demi12342002 I came to love this song in 1989, thanks to VH-1 - I was 26 years of age then; I'll be turning sixty (60) years of age on March 7th, and I'm still enjoying this song!
Unbelievable. Rare is a child of an iconic artist (Frank) also recognized as a national/international icon and produced classics that are still being played today. Nancy is a great singer in her own right.
this was an entirely manufactured song and performance. great songwriter (Axton), great band and production, best dancers in Hollywood, and an incredibly limited range of notes. it's even obvious that she is the worst dancer on that stage with her limited dance moves. She is so coached. I lived in Vegas back in the early 80's and Frank was totally revered. Justifiably so. Everybody in the business would do ANYTHING for Frank. And if you failed, it was like letting a mob boss down. So she had the BEST of everything. But if you like what was done, that's fair. It is a sound of the 60's.
@@Blueskyfalls frrr she was a real queen so strong a feminine which I love how this song captures that it makes sense that it was her favorite song as this song is also strong and feminine too
Nancy Sinatra was born on June 8, 1940, in Jersey City, New Jersey. On Monday June 8, 2020, she celebrated her 80th birthday. UPDATE: She celebrated her 81st birthday today. Tuesday June 8, 2021
Just imagine your grandma mentioning to you ever so casually she's one of the dancing girls behind Nancy Sinatra in this video wearing nothing but boots, a sweater, and very short short shorts.
Yes, it truly was considered to be naughty, Blaine - it wasn't until the mid-to-late Eighties that this video was shown in the dance clubs, and then on MTV and VH1.
This is still naughty but not because of what they are wearing or how they are dancing. It is still provocative. Compare the lyrics and the melody to "Ex's and Oh's." "Ex's and Oh's" is one of the most sexually aggressive pop songs sung by a female singer in recent memory, but it describes past relationship of using men and then discarding them. In "Ex's and Oh's," the aggression with a sexual twinge is directed at some guy in the past rather than you the listener right now. "These Boots Are Made for Walking" beats it out. In this song, Nancy is saying I'm going to trample your lying cheating ass on the way out of the door.
I grew up listening to this song, it brought such nostalgia. I can't even explain or count how many good times I've had with this song playing in the background. Brings back so many wonderful childhood songs.
oh, my goodness! I just wrote a comment on your Jade Helm vid. telling you how much you remind me of my son who was shot and died 4yrs ago. So i took a look at your channel and subscribed. It made me smile at the many similarities i found. Roland had a few favorite videos on a playlist ( i think youtube was sort of new then) and one of the maybe 20 videos was this Nancy Sinatra video exactly. I just had to laugh at this interesting moment of coincidence. A brief respite from sorrow. It was nice to find.
My brother was de-tuning his guitar and he played the very beginning chords to this song and I swear it was the funniest thing because it was unintentional.
@@seanreynolds1843 Well, Sean, I believe these ladies in the video (other than Nancy) were dancers for such films as this; these ladies in question were wearing V-neck, three-quarter sleeve, pullover sweaters, and also, as part of their wardrobe, high-wasted dancers briefs with rather high cut leg openings, which show just enough cheek to arouse the male of the species. My take on this look is that showing less of the female form leaves more to the imagination, if you catch my drift.
George M why does YT keep removing my comment??!! For the 7th time: George M well said brother, and I agree. I much prefer the days when more was left to the imagination. I was just being funny. lol 😁😇
+dimitra akon Yes, Dimitra - It was released in January 1966, and it entered the Billboard Hot 100 chart on February 5, 1966; three weeks later, this was the Number One song in the country.
@@baby-moon. Nancy also recorded some very good duets with her mentor, writer-producer Lee Hazlewood - songs such as "Summer Wine", "Sand" and "Some Velvet Morning"; be sure to look them up on TH-cam.
no, she is not underrated. the voice is average, the look is average, the moves are below average. but the father was well above average and this explains the average success she had. otherwise she could have been a nobody.
When this song came out I was on the West Coast. I did not hear it out there. Heading eastbound I met a lady in Detroit who mentioned the song to me. We parted company in Des Moines and I continued on to Chicago where stopping overnight I visited a record shop and picked up the record. Arriving back in NYS a few days later I finally got to listen to this song, late July 1965.
I don't think the miniskirts were that provocative in the 60s, literally everyone wore them. My mom sure did and she was a child! And she still wears then today, cause the 60s are always in fashion.
They sure were avant-gardistes and bold, people were not expecting it and a lot of designers didn’t gave a fuck so yeah you could say they were “provocative”, tho this word is kind of dumb it was an emancipation movment in a way.
I had the honor of meeting Nancy Sinatra the afternoon of 02/06/67 at an Army evacuation hospital in Saigon, RVN. She sowed courage and compassion for all the wounded. Franks kid had some guts to go through that place
yall know she was frank sinatras first wife and if you dont know who he is he wrote song (fly me to the moon) and lots more and then they divorced so know i think this song is about frank sinatra or her other husband
Why the heck are you guys arguing. Gonna be honest, I thought these replies would be somewhat wholesome or talking about a different topic. But thats the internet I guess, if you are reading this, thank you for your time.
Lee *was* underrated, judging him on merit. Nancy was overrated, judging her on hers. She was perky and cute, and had a likable personality, but she did not inherit any of her father's standout singing talent. She wasn't the worst, but she was so mediocre, if she hadn't had Frank's name to trade on, with her level of talent.she would never have gone anywhere at all. Lee wote all those hits Nancy had, but he was a fairly prolific Nashville songwriter as well. I think Lee's concerted efforts to promote Nancy got him more mainstream publicity, which may have helped him in the beginning, but later on in Nashville, it hurt him. Nashville is a serious talent- based music city, and not about glitz or Hollywood no talents with commercially promotable appearances. In recent years, it has changed more and more, until maybe one day it might be as full of no talents with expensive breast implants, Davinci poreclain veneers etc, as L.A. (Hollywood). But for now, a lot of the changes are still positive. They're less conservative and narrow minded, which is good, but less apt to fall all over themselves over lousy singing. In Lee's era, Nashville's tight circles of studio honchos began to take him less seriously for promoting an artist with little talent, no matter whose daughter. It was different with artists like Pam Tillis, Rosanne Cash, Carlene Carter. They came along 10-15 years later, true, but the most important difference was they all had a great deal of talent in their own right. They could really sing, and they could write songs.
One more thought. Mentioning those 3 Nashville luminaries, if Carlene Carter's second? husband Nick Lowe had been interested in promoting her (late 1970s) rock career, and someone had asked her to do a cover of These Boots (Were Made for Walking), she would have *owned* it-- made Nancy S.'s version look lukewarm (at best). She could REALLY sing, she was totally red hot, and she always wore killer fancy cowgirl boots. She also had the historical credibilty "street cred" needed to *not* come off as a poseur. And by then--oh, yeah, it would have been a hit in Nashville.
some of yall forget that in every period there is a genre or a behavior that is considered scandalous compared to what society is accustomed to. There was a time when showing your whole bare legs!!11!!1! and dancing like that was considered immoral while for us it looks "elegant" lol
I sing this to my elderly mom when I help her walk with her walker. I say, "Are you ready mom? Start walkin'." We both laugh, and hopefully she doesn't break a hip.
Could you imagine being a teen growing up in the 60's in a conservative America and one day you see Nancy Sinatra and all these other ladies shaking it TV. I'd lose my mind.
That's not the way it happened. First The Beatles came in 1964 and we all went f*** crazy. By the time Nancy came along this was considered campy and funny.
The 60's has had such a huge impact on all decades that have passed after it. Even if people don't realise it or agree with me the 60's was an amazing time and a very special decade [they knew they had something special] and so much of modern dancing and fashion is hugely influenced by the 60's. All I can say is Thank Goodness for the 60's!! Oh and I live for those Bouffants
Can we not turn this into something it's not. My comment was harmless and meant from a good place but already people are turning it into a negative. Why? If you're gona be sarcastic and passive aggressive please start your own thread don't do it on mine. Your words are unwarranted and so is your attitude. Let's not be sensitive about something that was never there.
"Let's not be sensitive about something that was never there."i.e. My original comment was harmless and the response from you was just not needed here. You can have an opinion but make sure it correlates to what is being said before hand. Lastly the 60's was a 'go-getter' decade…..for them it was a liberal time. Don't compare apples and oranges. Have a good day.
+Rebecca L that's fucking hilarious. 1998 is not that far off from the 60's. It's not 100 years ago, it's only 30 years before you were born. You'll be able to put this in perspective when you get to your 20's, then time will fly and you'll be like oh shit! I was being an ignorant piece of shit online. :)
Shit, I was just trying to say that #1. the original comment was correct and factual it wasn't dismissing our generation in any way lol #2. the 60's is WHY women are thriving today (not just the 60's, it started out many decades before that, but read about the history of feminism I won't lecture), that brings me to #3. the 60's, 70's were super progressive decades, NOT conservative AT ALL, 4. Jesus Christ it wasn't THAT long ago!! No need to fight. but please get your facts straight. Look up all the social movements of the 60's and 70's. That'll help! Just be open-minded about it k :) there's no such thing as old people vs young people. We've all been young, and it seems like yesterday to all of us, just not all of us have been old yet.
+Fast Fugu The more time goes by, the better everything from mid-century gets. Nothing in the 21st century will ever touch anything from the 1920's-'80s. Hell, we're 16 years into this century now and have less to show to creatively than 3 or 4 months in (say) 1966 or '67. When it was over, it was REALLY over, obviously.
This was extremely scandalous when it dropped. My grandma can remember the conservatives getting hella mad over this and trying to get it boycotted on radio.
I feel like this song should be the definition of a guilty pleasure
+Sam Feldstein sure is... While remember history class that back in the 60's, listen to this will get you arrested in my country

I don't think the miniskirts were that provocative in the 60s, literally everyone wore them. My mom sure did and she was a child! And she still wears then today, cause the 60s are always in fashion.
They sure were avant-gardistes and bold, people were not expecting it and a lot of designers didn’t gave a fuck so yeah you could say they were “provocative”, tho this word is kind of dumb it was an emancipation movment in a way.
Yes, they were considered provocative, specifically when adult women wore them. That was the whole idea. It was a very different world.
I was a small boy when they came out and I loved them. Who needs biology class when you can see what interests you right there in front of you.
@@FFM0594 Uh sir-
You would understand if you'd grown up in the 30s-50s. Looking back....this was tame compared to LITERALLY painted on clothing today.
I had the honor of meeting Nancy Sinatra the afternoon of 02/06/67 at an Army evacuation hospital in Saigon, RVN. She sowed courage and compassion for all the wounded. Franks kid had some guts to go through that place
What a wonderful person Nancy was (is), and just the kind of dandy day brightener those Army servicemen needed at that time and place.
"One of these days these boots are ganna walk all over you"🙃

I'am a M, you a S, we are a perfect match!
Except it wasn't meant as you pick it up, Feminazi.
"these boots are made for walking", aka Nancy Sinatra dragging someone through the dirt for 2 and a half minutes
Good song,year I was born.
I thought this was Jessica’s Simpson’s song
@La La Land Calm the fuck down
yall know she was frank sinatras first wife and if you dont know who he is he wrote song (fly me to the moon) and lots more and then they divorced so know i think this song is about frank sinatra or her other husband
Why the heck are you guys arguing. Gonna be honest, I thought these replies would be somewhat wholesome or talking about a different topic. But thats the internet I guess, if you are reading this, thank you for your time.
Idk why but this would sound perfect to someone getting really pissed at someone and then starting a bar fight
Search dynasty bar fight lol
look at dynasty
Now THAT would be just perfect for this song!
This one sounds even more perfect lmao

Nancy and Lee = one of the greatest, most underrated duos ever!
Lee *was* underrated, judging him on merit. Nancy was overrated, judging her on hers. She was perky and cute, and had a likable personality, but she did not inherit any of her father's standout singing talent. She wasn't the worst, but she was so mediocre, if she hadn't had Frank's name to trade on, with her level of talent.she would never have gone anywhere at all. Lee wote all those hits Nancy had, but he was a fairly prolific Nashville songwriter as well.
I think Lee's concerted efforts to promote Nancy got him more mainstream publicity, which may have helped him in the beginning, but later on in Nashville, it hurt him. Nashville is a serious talent- based music city, and not about glitz or Hollywood no talents with commercially promotable appearances. In recent years, it has changed more and more, until maybe one day it might be as full of no talents with expensive breast implants, Davinci poreclain veneers etc, as L.A. (Hollywood). But for now, a lot of the changes are still positive. They're less conservative and narrow minded, which is good, but less apt to fall all over themselves over lousy singing. In Lee's era, Nashville's tight circles of studio honchos began to take him less seriously for promoting an artist with little talent, no matter whose daughter. It was different with artists like Pam Tillis, Rosanne Cash, Carlene Carter. They came along 10-15 years later, true, but the most important difference was they all had a great deal of talent in their own right. They could really sing, and they could write songs.
One more thought. Mentioning those 3 Nashville luminaries, if Carlene Carter's second? husband Nick Lowe had been interested in promoting her (late 1970s) rock career, and someone had asked her to do a cover of These Boots (Were Made for Walking), she would have *owned* it-- made Nancy S.'s version look lukewarm (at best). She could REALLY sing, she was totally red hot, and she always wore killer fancy cowgirl boots. She also had the historical credibilty "street cred" needed to *not* come off as a poseur. And by then--oh, yeah, it would have been a hit in Nashville.
"You keep lying when you should be truthin"...... Excellent!
How true,Nicholas - not even Lennon and McCartney could come up with a lyric that good!
@@MegaJustGeorge I'm gonna be controversial and say Lee Hazlewood was a better songwriter than Lennon or McCartney
@@vanyadolly My sentiments exactly!
The entire Sinatra family has to be the coolest people to have ever lived.
HitchensImmortal But sadly, this is the only big hit Nancy really had. But I'm sure she made tons of money off of it.
"Bang, Bang" is a great music
rumor has it that frank used to be buddies with pablo escobar.

This was absolutely my vibe today - got a mini dress and knee high boots with some heavy eye makeup 👁️👁️ will always love Nancy and the 60s!!
Grandma: ugh! These music videos promote sex and stuff!
Also Grandma's hits:
Actually revenge 😂
My Grandma listens to Country tbf she wouldn't know what this is.
@J Ds It most certainly does.
some of yall forget that in every period there is a genre or a behavior that is considered scandalous compared to what society is accustomed to. There was a time when showing your whole bare legs!!11!!1! and dancing like that was considered immoral while for us it looks "elegant" lol
@J Ds actually for their time this would be their WAP, also fuck you you have shit taste in music
I sing this to my elderly mom when I help her walk with her walker. I say, "Are you ready mom? Start walkin'." We both laugh, and hopefully she doesn't break a hip.
You are a good person.
lovely
InsertName125 YEAH,IT WORKS!!!
Play the megadeth version for her
wish there was a hysterical laughter emoji like fb has for this! :D
Could you imagine being a teen growing up in the 60's in a conservative America and one day you see Nancy Sinatra and all these other ladies shaking it TV. I'd lose my mind.
Not sure what you mean, but I also would have gone mad.

That's not the way it happened. First The Beatles came in 1964 and we all went f*** crazy. By the time Nancy came along this was considered campy and funny.

The 60's has had such a huge impact on all decades that have passed after it. Even if people don't realise it or agree with me the 60's was an amazing time and a very special decade [they knew they had something special] and so much of modern dancing and fashion is hugely influenced by the 60's. All I can say is Thank Goodness for the 60's!! Oh and I live for those Bouffants
Can we not turn this into something it's not. My comment was harmless and meant from a good place but already people are turning it into a negative. Why? If you're gona be sarcastic and passive aggressive please start your own thread don't do it on mine. Your words are unwarranted and so is your attitude. Let's not be sensitive about something that was never there.
"Let's not be sensitive about something that was never there."i.e. My original comment was harmless and the response from you was just not needed here. You can have an opinion but make sure it correlates to what is being said before hand. Lastly the 60's was a 'go-getter' decade…..for them it was a liberal time. Don't compare apples and oranges. Have a good day.
+Rebecca L that's fucking hilarious. 1998 is not that far off from the 60's. It's not 100 years ago, it's only 30 years before you were born. You'll be able to put this in perspective when you get to your 20's, then time will fly and you'll be like oh shit! I was being an ignorant piece of shit online. :)
+Rebecca L Yeah, things are getting better all the time. Actually, no. Get a life, Suzy Rottencrotch.
Shit, I was just trying to say that #1. the original comment was correct and factual it wasn't dismissing our generation in any way lol #2. the 60's is WHY women are thriving today (not just the 60's, it started out many decades before that, but read about the history of feminism I won't lecture), that brings me to #3. the 60's, 70's were super progressive decades, NOT conservative AT ALL, 4. Jesus Christ it wasn't THAT long ago!! No need to fight. but please get your facts straight. Look up all the social movements of the 60's and 70's. That'll help! Just be open-minded about it k :) there's no such thing as old people vs young people. We've all been young, and it seems like yesterday to all of us, just not all of us have been old yet.

Yes, indeed - like fine wine, this song gets better with age.
AWE THIS IS AWESOME SONG? AND MY AUNTIE MARY LOVES THIS STUNNING SONG.
Why do I love the “are u ready boots start walking” tho
love this video. these women are healthy and not twigs. Nancy is fabulously beautiful
I HAVE THIS STUCK IN MY HEAD ALL DAY AND IM NOT COMPLAINING
Bro more than 60 years and this song is still amazing. I heard it in the rugrats 2 it's so good
I feel like doing my own remake of this. I love it! The ladies can move!
lol! You just can't please some people :-)
Maybe not...

+Fast Fugu The more time goes by, the better everything from mid-century gets. Nothing in the 21st century will ever touch anything from the 1920's-'80s. Hell, we're 16 years into this century now and have less to show to creatively than 3 or 4 months in (say) 1966 or '67. When it was over, it was REALLY over, obviously.
