The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. The Ed Sullivan Show is well known for bringing rock n' roll music to the forefront of American culture through acts like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. It also frequently featured stars of Motown such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder and The Jackson 5. The Ed Sullivan Show was one of the only places on American television where such a wide variety of popular culture was showcased and its legacy lives on to this day.

Affectionately called the "Melanie Medley" performed on a Special Edition in May of '71 as the Ed Sullivan Show was coming to end. What a great appearance to not only celebrate the first singles released by this group, but especially to celebrate the TV program that captured our attention for so many years.
Melanie was a frequent guest on the show in the last couple of years of the show and was on the very last episode of Ed Sullivan
@@michaelrochester48 Melanie appeared on two episodes of the Ed Sullivan show in the last year.
Maybe you need to get captured! Garbage music
The matching suits for the blokes and dresses for the lasses must have been a US thing as they never wore completely matching stuff in European concerts - maybe similar or complementary but never uniform. Still, as long as they got paid . . .😀 And Eve singing Beautiful People 😍😍😍
I always loved Melanie. I had the opportunity to interview her and she was very kind and told great stories.
I don't think I've heard that "Nickel" song since it first came out. But I can still sing along with it.
This is excellent. I like music 🎶 like this. It's about peace, love ❤️ and understanding, something the world seriously lacks today. TY for sharing this. God Bless You and stay safe 🙏
The matching outfits are so cute and wholesome, compared to the slop people wear today.
Love this ❤😘
When I hear this song I always think of allo allo tv show
This is the greatest song ever 💕💕💕💕
It's not so much a song but a medley of three...
Yeah, but look what they've done to it. 😉
@@edufau815 totally agree with you on that💕💕💕💕
@@notinmyUSMC oh my goodness 💕
Wow I had never known of Look What They’ve Done until this week while hearing an old radio aircheck with this song on it just this week! Now this pops up on my feed. Weird
Oh blast from the past❤
Excellent.
From the Ed Sullivan special episode hosted by Jack Jones, aired two months after the final Sullivan hosted episode. The New Seekers recording of "Look What They've Done to My Song, Ma", charted at 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 and 4 on the Adult Contemporary chart, "Beautiful People" charted at 67 on the Hot 100 and 11 on the AC chart, and "Nickel Song" charted at 81 on the Hot 100 and 12 on the AC chart.
Love this ❤😘
Also Melanie Safka "The Nickel Song" went to # 35 (Billboard Hot 100) on March 11, 1972. On February 26, 1972 Melanie was in the Top 40 with 3 songs "Brand New Key" at # 24 (former # 1 song), "Ring The Living Bell" at # 34 (both on Neighborhood) as well as "The Nickel Song" (Buddah) at # 36.
sehr schönes Musikvideo ❤ 👍 ❤
I'm in love ♥️
Love this group but prefer when they are allowed to express their own personlities with the fashion
Love disc and parle vous
I like the original Seekers. Georgy girl .
I bet Melanie was at home watching this going 😳
Green with envy at the beauty of Eve Graham and her gorgeous voice - but happily picking up the royalties 😅
Actually Melanie was happy that The New Seekers were successful with 3 of her compositions, it gave her own career an extra boost in Europe and of cause the royalties. She mentioned tat in late interviews
I'll take Melanie's versions , thank you.
Do a little bit of research before you make a fool of yourself.
See what happens when you do drugs!!!
Can you explain .
@@tomc642 she stinks
@@CaptainDarrick your taste is all in your mouth!
Obviously a contrived showbiz act put together by cigar smoking "suits" in the entertainment industry who, in 1971, figured they could cash in on the "youth" music movement. To the kids in the group this was a major gig and must have been exciting. They didn't create their own art and music. Doing cover tunes of other artists they were a "hair and costume" theater arts act. I'm sure they each individually went on to be in other bands and theater arts projects.
Actually the guys in the group did wright and record their own material, featuring on all their albums, although they were a manufacture band this doesn't mean they weren't talented singers and musicians.
They were put together by Keith Potger, member of the australian group The Seekers, after they split in 68. Peter Doyle & Marty Kristian already had success as solo artists in Australia, while Lyn Paul & Eve Graham sang in a Manchester based band, the Nocturnes. And they were very good singers. Not every songwriter can sing, and not every singer can write songs. That's why a collaboration is often the best result, especially when a good musical arranger joins the team. There are too many good composers with mediocre singing skills around
the best thing about this performance is that it is totally forgettable
What did they do to your song? They hacked at it and shortened it so they would have more time to sell soap.....
Then, the big box of laundry soap turned into a little box of laundry soap, for a higher price! Laundry soap companies claimed the smaller soap is more concentrated! I will get off my soap box now.
