A few years ahead of you here in the UK; loved this disc, along with SO many when the hit parade was full of great songs week after week in our music papers New Musical Express and Melody Maker.
I was born in 52, and I agree. The music, even Big Band and Doris Day, and all the wide scope of it all was amazing. I love listening to any and all of it.
I was born in the 60’s and grew up in the 70’s and 80’s. Whenever I’d see anything from the 50’s, I’d tell my parents I wish I grew up in the 50’s. Now my kids see film of our time in the 80’s and tell me they wish they grew up in the 80’s. We sure had some good times back when!
I was born 1970 and would never change growing up in the 70's and 80's for anything. Every era/decade had great music/movies/culture etc that people either loved or hated.
Roger Zimet Get over the dirty words. We're NOT all baby boomers. I'm Gen X, so the kid of baby boomers. We were sick of all those "rules" & also sick of treating women as playthings, objects who were stuck in the kitchen.
@@seanhunter4297 bruh the boomers were the ones who skyrocketed women's lib. Your thinking of the parents of the boomers. Boomers were teens/young Peeple in the 60s n 70s
What early years? LOL. Okay, it was the late 50s, early 60s, and this was a style called "Doo Wop." It began on the East Coast in NYC, and NJ, mostly. Explore Doo Wop a bit. There are a lot of beautiful, romantic songs of that time.
@@williammorrill946 - Wishful?....But so many people do think those times were "good times," simpler times....." especially compared to the ensuing 50 years that seem to put people at a distance. "Those times" offered hope, whereas now.......the opposite seems to be prevalent.
The Diamonds were a group from Toronto, Canada, one of whom was a sound engineer for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. They achieved 16 hits on the Billboard charts and were inducted into the Doo-Wop Hall of Fame.
Something happened along the way. Something very profound and sad between the 1950s and 1960s. The music that both kids and their parents enjoyed together suddenly changed and separated the two generations. It was closely followed with the Vietnam War which did irreparable damage to the country. I lived those years and truly miss all those great songs.
We,were soldiers once and young!The upbringing,we had,from,WW2,and Korean War Veterans,instilled in us love of country!Is there anything wrong with that!Thomas A.Filipiak! Viet Nam! 1967 1968!
This was released when I was 13 years old. Yes I'm bloody old. This was the age of crooners and then suddenly there was exciting music and girls, oh yes the girls in their wonderful dresses and beehive hair. Where are they now ? Life is so short. Live it to the full or you will regret it later.
I grew up listening to this song along with tons of mid to late 1950’s songs at my grandparents house ever since I was a toddler. Sadly my grandfather is no longer alive, he passed away back in September unexpectedly to a stoke, but he introduced me to some great catchy timeless tunes. :’) (This was one of his top favorite songs.)
maybe you will remember this...this song was done by the diamonds, one of the members was David Somerville...he went on to team up with Bruce balland of the 4 preps (26 miles/Santa Catalina) they did a comedy/folk bit...here they are on the Johnny cash show th-cam.com/video/qL9AdmfbkJ4/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=TheFourPreps
Yeah, I long for the days I have never lived through. Especially because it was much less progressive and minorities were more often than not segregated away. Homophobia and racism is really missed by some.
@@jackgibsxxx0750 I think it said in the caption that it was "Peyton Place" from 1957. I remember the movie from those years although I was only seven when it came out. The movie title became a scornful cliche in the religious communities any time they wanted to comment on any kind of "adult" behavior in the neighborhood. Even for many years after.
The 50’s were incredible. Full of post-war optimism and people wanting to have fun and enjoy life. The cars, the fashion and the music were all about unrestrained joy, colour and creativity. The perfect antidote to the grey, destructive and ugly years of WWII. What a great decade 🏆👏👏
Chez Mcewan Yes, for the WHITE MEN. Women could hardly EVER get a job. You see on "I Love Lucy" that women were treated as brainless kitchen slaves. As a man, I find that highly offensive. While I liked this particular song--- most of the 1950s is full of "hokey" music....60s were better.
It was great for only America. It prospered after the war as it suffered no destruction, bombings or persecutions. Europe was devastated by allied bombings of both military and civilian properties. Displaced refugees were left with nothing, cities were completely ruined, food and housing shortages were everywhere. Everyone in Europe suffered after the war. While America grew and prospered. It was a terrible decade for others!
@@bonjourpierre4778 - I get your point, but that’s only half true. The USA helped Europe recover from the war with the Marshall Aid Plan. Germany used the money well to invest in its industry and experienced the economic miracle of the 1950s with high growth rates. France likewise. Socialist Britain wasted its gift of Marshall Aid in building a wasteful welfare state, but still experienced decent growth rates. So yes - much of Europe did lay in ruins after WW2, but it did recover pretty quickly. Mind you, Britain only paid off its war debt in 2016.

What an amazing trip in time! Thanks to my mom, I grew up with this awesome song and many others!❤ How the years have gone by! To all those amazing memories and the days we thought would last forever!❤
This is a movie so the girls are going to look like models. In the real world, the girls in the 50s looked just like the girls today, but they did wear more skirts and they were thinner. The obesity of today comes from people having more money to buy food and doing less physical labor due to automation.
I look at the old man with the little boy strolling down the sidewalk at 1:00 and think, this movie came out in 1957. Imagine all the changes and developments that old man saw within his lifetime.
Fine example of Early Rock and Roll and the Doo Wop Area. Not sophisticated just a good moving beat that was great to dance to. I was 14 years old when this song was a big hit. To young to appreciate it then but now it causes a pause and a lump in my throat, my how the time goes by.
Boy, you don't know how the mind works. If you can imagine it, it still exists. There is no world out there from its own side. Everything depends on the mind.
Well we can't go back. But I did buy myself a 57 Speedster and listen to 50's music while cruising. (I grew up in the 80's) and yes girls were still thin. We called them skinny. I married one and she is still skinny!
Clear sound and lovely images from Peyton Place. This looks like it was from the 1957 movie, not the popular television soap opera. The pretty blonde featured in most of the shots must have been Hope Lange. Most of the exteriors were shot in mid-coast Maine -- Camden, Belfast, and Rockland. Although this doo-wop classic fits the clips well, the film had its own award-winning score.
My God, women were so beautiful in this era. 🔥💖
Mark Fizz The men were handsome too, professional looking & treated the women properly (for the most part). Now we face OLD men dictating to women what to do with their pregnancies.

And so slender.
They were movie stars in the video. Lana Turner, Diane Varsi, Hope Lange, Terry Thomas. Their entire lives were about being beautiful.
So beautiful, so cute
Females now days have NO idea how to dress OR behave ....
I'm 18 years old and I would listen to this music over any of the new crap.
It takes some courage to say that, especially among your peers, but I know that you are not alone - not by a long shot. Stay strong.
👏👏👏👏👏 Brazil needs help. A thief'$ tryng to stole our country, our souls and our children. His name'$ lula 🙈
Good for you !
May the younger generation call this music schmaltzy but I still like it.
That time was the best ever....I was born in 1946
Being born in 1947 i was there for all of it. What a time to be alive.
And imagine all the cool cars you’ve seen & bought

can you tell me the name of the movie in this clip TY

Pense era el unico laope que escuchaba esto. Saludos de un pana en Toronto.
Back when men were gentlemen and women were ladies. Too bad America is a degenerate cesspool now…
The song, the thin/tall females, the cars, the clothes, all strike a nostalgic chord in my soul.
April 1946. Makes me 78 in three months. Remember this song from high school.
One of the greatest hits of the early years, great voices!!

Unless you were black
The Diamonds were a group from Toronto, Canada, one of whom was a sound engineer for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. They achieved 16 hits on the Billboard charts and were inducted into the Doo-Wop Hall of Fame.
Little Darlin was one of 1957's biggest pop hits. Another major pop hit that year was Diana by Ottawa's Paul Anka.
Loved learning about the group being from Toronto. As a motowner we listened to CKLW in Windsor along with the 3 or 4 hip motown stations.
82 in 24 and still rocking! Remember the 50s very well..
this song came from the age of great music and I was blessed to be young and experience this type of music

Marxism and LBJ happened
That is nothing compared to what happened between the 1950s and now. The entire world now exists in separate little pockets of dysfunction.

Miss the "Baby Boom" years of my youth - the '50s, '60's had the BEST music. Early '70's was good until Disco came along and spoiled it all.
Exact, ce fût le début de la fin de la vraie musique, dont il ne reste que de vagues souvenirs, sauf chez ceux qui ont vécu l'époque, comme nous...
You're right. Disco was garbage.
Was für eine schöne Zeit das war. Schöne Frauen und Männer, wundervolle Autos und wunderbare Musik. Ich liebe es!
Remember the movie. The music, the artists from back in the good old days when we had these classics. Love it. Thanks for sharing. 🎶🩰❤️
Those were the best yrs ever. Glad I was a ternager then. I dancex to it all. Wonderful. Forever in my heart and so. Best times ever.
Smiles, hi Sheri 🤗

A música americana é plena, rica e versátil. Eu gosto delas todas. Sempre fui fã e sempre serei.
What a beautiful time in America. ❤️🇺🇸👌
MAGA! 🇺🇸
I hope. 🤠🇺🇸
If you were a straight, white men. Not so great for everyone else.
It was a lot better back then in New Zealand as well , I was born in 1964. 🙂
Wow a medal to whoever remastered this to stereo. One of my favorite oldies. Thank you.
Wish I could go back
Playing this over the movie footage was just perfect. Actually inspired. Well done.

Solo lo mejor de los años 50.. fabuloso
I grow up in the 70s. But mom dad played 50s. 6os. I still love the sound .
The best of times. Bobby socks, blue jeans, music, cars, and the drive-in.
Smiles,hi Suzie 🤗
I sometimes feel that I was born to late but on the good side I can still enjoy the 50s cars and music along with the 70s music.
Those were the days!!!!
Smiles,hi Susan 🤗
Movie is Peyton Place.Lana Turner, Hope Lange, Russ Tamblyn, Arthur Kennedy w/the ladder.
Thank you!
Absolute epic of our time.
fantastic video !
The castanets, cowbell and harp alone make this a gem. One of the top five doo-wop tunes. Loved it when I was ten, still love it at seventy-seven.

The best music. Love this era!
The World Was A Much Different and Special Place
Do-wop was just a little before my time, but I came to appreciate it in my sixties. Sha-na-na,s interpretation of the era, was great !
When you close your eyes and can be transported to another world, even thougth you know you are just dreaming.
Wonderful music and great accompanying video, well done! A time when many women had naturally slender figures and naturally beautiful.
Thank you for the lovely sharing, my friend 😊
@@clip-nt3ds You are most welcome, my friend 😊
It's been a while since I watched "Peyton Place." It's a great movie.
Wow, I'm 83 and remember the very day I heard this song and watched CIB pound out an interpretation -[10-10-57].
A MASTERPIECE OF THE DOOWOP . GREAT SONG BYY A GREAT GROUP
What an amazing trip in time! Thanks to my mom, I grew up with this awesome song and many others!❤
How the years have gone by! To all those amazing memories and the days we thought would last forever!❤
That was a great time!
it's been years since I heard this song, WOW!!
I was 11 when this came out . Happy days ❤
What happened to United States. l used to travel for a vacation in the 80's and still was not so bad as it is today. I still missed those days.
Excellent pairing with Peyton Place. Well done!
What movie is this from on the video?
@@mbar3336 Peyton Place. Lana Turner, Lloyd Nolan, Diane Varsi, Hope Lange, Terry Thomas.....
@kat35lulu88 thank you!
Rewatch the movie, its very "dark"! NOT sure about that "excellent".
@@isitrachelorj3953 Yes it does stress some serious issues..... abortion, economic class, and especially incest. And moral standards of the 40's.
Miss the REAL SONGS and MUSIC 😢❤
That distinct 1950s chord progression I-vi-IV-V (one-six minor-four-five, as in C-Am-F-G). Almost every song. Simple, but wonderful!
That right. Makes it easier to play.
Good to hear this again
🙋♀️❤️❤️❤️🎶🎶❤️❤️❤️
So ein goldiger Song 🎶 🥂
People dress so nice back then. The age of innocents.
Women actually wore dresses back then? Today's women dress like men. Ah, what memories, what memories.
"i-n-n-o-c-e-n-c-e"
We had actual "dress codes" in school. Girls had to wear dresses and boys shirts with collars and buttons. Till '69 or '70 where I was.
Also the age Jim Crow and segregation
Look at the clean streets! Amazing!
I love the song "Little Darling" by The Diamonds.
I'm amazed and attracted by this song.
How can one not smile when this song starts? Always makes me feel better !
Wow! Sure brings back pleasant memories
My friend and days yonger years . Best memories
Bring on the oldies to rock and go on forever!
Back when thin was in and America had beautiful girls.
Thin was in everyone had a pocket full of speed
I don't see any correlation between a certain era and beautiful girls.
This is a movie so the girls are going to look like models. In the real world, the girls in the 50s looked just like the girls today, but they did wear more skirts and they were thinner. The obesity of today comes from people having more money to buy food and doing less physical labor due to automation.
Same here in the UK just tattoo's, nose rings and pumped up tit's and lips, I'm 77yrs old now and yearn for the 50's 60's and 70's 😢😢
I look at the old man with the little boy strolling down the sidewalk at 1:00 and think, this movie came out in 1957. Imagine all the changes and developments that old man saw within his lifetime.
I was 6 yrs old in '57..have no memory of it back then. But..now I do..

Fine example of Early Rock and Roll and the Doo Wop Area. Not sophisticated just a good moving beat that was great to dance to. I was 14 years old when this song was a big hit. To young to appreciate it then but now it causes a pause and a lump in my throat, my how the time goes by.

Good life for a white guy

The music from the past is wonderful! Other times... Thanks for the post.
Such a great song thanks
The 60’s ruined everything and we’ll never get (Little Darlin back)😢or that time!
You want to undo the civil rights movement and go back to segregation ?
Boy, you don't know how the mind works. If you can imagine it, it still exists. There is no world out there from its own side. Everything depends on the mind.
If you're one of those who feels the liberalism of the 1960's ruined things, that's your point of view.
Korea 1950-1953. You are not forgotten.
1956.
Back in the day.
Just, growing up!
What an era
TUDO ERA LEVE E SOLTO VIVÍAMOS SEM MEDOS NESSA ÉPOCA
I wish more women would dress like that now ❤❤❤❤
Excellent!
Well we can't go back. But I did buy myself a 57 Speedster and listen to 50's music while cruising.
(I grew up in the 80's) and yes girls were still thin. We called them skinny. I married one and she is still skinny!

This is filmed in Camden, Maine. I recognized the town before I saw the name of the movie. It looks very much the same. A few changes, but not many.
