    Nearly 50 years ago I started going out with a very beautiful girl. Since my name is Robert the others in the shop where she was working started calling her "Bobby's Girl". This became something of a tradition between us. I'd start asking her, "What do you want...?" and she'd launch into the song.
    Sadly she passed away two years ago after a long and happy marriage. Finding this on the net has triggered some lovely memories.
    Thanks. Robert Billing.

    Still a really classy act, still a fine voice. The most underrated of the British 1960s pop girl singers - delightful Susan Maughan.

    Even though I love this song it makes me sad. Bobby, the boy next door to us was 16, I was 14, we went to the same high school, we were really close friends, but I wasn't allowed to date, this was back in the early 70's when a girl's reputation was everything. It was a Saturday morning and I heard Bobby's mom screaming, turns out Bobby had spent the night at his friend's house and on his way home that morning, he was hit and killed on his motorcycle by a drunk driver. This song was playing when my mom came in my room and said Linda needs you, Bobby was killed about an hour ago. Linda was his older sister and my best friend; she was mentally challenged and couldn't really understand what was going on. So many years have passed but I remember it like it was this morning.

    • @andy6576
      @andy6576 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      "brainwashed into liking..." Mmm...Or maybe, just _maybe_ their tastes differ from your own? In much the same way as yours were probably different from your parents. D'you see how this works? I'm 50 and don't like current pop music but it's not aimed at me, or you. Lucky for us we have so much old music at our fingertips, eh?

    I’ve been entertaining in theatres clubs and hotels for forty years. I do a full three hour none stop show , never once used an agent and worked winter and summer at least four nights a week. I have a half hour sixties disco in the middle of the show, I have always always started it with Bobbies Girl, it’s a floor filler. Susan Maughan is class, a beautiful woman who radiates professionalism and vocal talent. I often used to think I would one day meet her, but not to be. Five star entertainer, Susan Maughan.

    Met Susan quite a few times over the year's always such a charming and lovely lady to chat to i was not even born when Susan had her huge hit record Bobby's Girl back in 1962 i just love that song and many other's that she did i think if she had come along just a few year's earlier she would have been a huge star 🌟 to rival the likes of Helen Shapiro etc Bobby's Girl will always be associated with Susan Maughan and still played on radio stations nostalgia programmes all the time not bad for a 60 + year old song ❤❤❤❤

    I can't believe how beautiful she still is. She doesn't look any older than 50, 7 yrs younger than me. I remember hearing this on a double album tape by Arcade with this on.... I was still at junior school or a 1st yr at secondary school!! When was this filmed??? I was wondering, because she'll be 77 in July!
