But it is not underrated. How come you insult Dion this way? He was and still is very much appreciated. This album is a master piece. This song is classic!
I am a 81 year old teenager, I still listen to this music at least you can understand what they are singing about, the Everly Brothers once said you will never grow old with Rock n Roll....they were good years and they still are! Bless you all.....
This black woman of 76 always loved this record I loved all of his music all dowop those days were magic piece happy ness wish we could go back to then and everyone could come back and it would be like it was back then I can dream can't. I love you guys
2023 and here I am. 41 year old Boy, Son, Brother... Listening to this song today, remembering better times, much better times. The 80s. No Internet, listening to my dad bang out tunes like this, feeling grateful to be alive, even at 8 years old. Folks we gone too far... Just too far... Time to wind it back abit
It's 2023, Im just 30 years old but love this Kind of music! This rythm makes your leg stump even when you don't want it! :D Sad there's lack of such talent these days, and at the same time pride having such a music going through generations ❤❤
I saw Dion when I was 15 at Manatee Civic Center in Bradenton, Florida. It was the late 80’s. I had fun but I appreciate that memory a lot more now. I didn’t realize I was witnessing a legend at the time. Now I’m a child of the 70’s who loves this genre of music. Thank you for the post!
Whats really crazy is Dion probably never imagine a 32 years millennial dude like me would be listening and absolutely loving his performance in 2022! Thw internet can really be a beautiful thing.. What a great era you lived through! The women are so gorgeous all the men suited up. I was born in the 90s. Just wild that I enjoy this music bro than all the gatabge released these days from most.
this young man is a credit to his nation and his family have played this song so much just love his voice 76 now but my god can he sing wow wow wow wow love him just so relaxing god bless you my man legends don't die they live on and on.❤❤❤❤🎉🎉
@Jay Dee That’s just your taste, it doesn’t mean music today is pure shyte. Maybe stop being entitled and so close-minded because you’re one of the reasons why people can’t even appreciate music anymore.
@Jay Dee Ha! People like you make me laugh. Funny how you don’t understand what an opinion is, and that neither is right or wrong. And again, music has not turned to pure shyte as there are many great songs and videos explaining songs with great qualities in them. You don’t have to like them, but that doesn’t mean it’s all bad. But alas, if I would agree with you, I would be stupid. And even calling you stupid is an insult to stupid people. ;)
@Jay Dee Don't worry bro, these people condemn themselves by their own words. See how in order to finally win, he has to belittle you, yet, hypocritically, plays the "cool and non-judgemental" dude when it comes to the music. He's rather judge you, a fellow human. You are right, he has much to learn about life. Beginning with the meaning of quality. But, as he is the one who has to learn, be gentle with people like him, they lack, being less mature and more thoroughly tainted by the world's filth, which is why they can't differentiate things in the way you are speaking about. They need to learn, so you must explain to them what they are blind about, that they might begin to see. And in the process of helping another, you yourself grow. ;)
One of the best songs ever created.. there are a few and this is up there on top ... genius .. What really makes the song is the brilliant is the backing harmony singing over dions voice .. comes together to make something very special
This wasover 50 yrs before my time but these are the days when life was best I think EVERYONE who gets asked if they had a time machine which decade n its always this gen ❤
That really takes away from the experience of hearing it because you get to hear it as many times as you want as many days as you want and it gets to the point where you get bored of the song.
That's a pretty good observation. Maybe today's music is shit but we live in an age where we can find and listen to anything we want. Hell, 10 years ago Shazam wasn't even a thing
@@elsaportillo6479 I'm 59 got three months hit that big 60. Grew up with the music since my dad raised me to the music..said that this type of music is better than the devil music.
I'm 44 and my mum and the wanderers movie got me Into Dion. I love this track and can never get bored of it ! Wish I was in the 60s just for the music ! Can't get songs like this nowadays. 😢
This era of music makes cleaning your house or any chore like putting together furniture a breeze. It's near impossible to listen to this stuff and not have a pep in your step!
I was 8 years old when Runaround Sue came out. WKIX in Raleigh was the only rock and roll station we could pick up in 1961 and of course it was all AM back then. I love it as much today as I did all those years ago ( I'm 70 now) Greatest music ever!!
Perhaps one of the greatest pop songs of all-time, in my opinion. I remember where I was and what I was doing when I first heard it on the radio when it had just been released. Listening to it takes me back to that happy moment.
Im going to cry. And that dosent happen verry often my father died march2007 My father would play this for mother sue. Im so happy i fount this little jem. Theres nothing like a good old song. Thanks for sharing ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ cant erase thease numbers at the end
Dion DiMucci is 83 as I'm writing this, I believe he's still performing & sounding great. My (professional musician who have some connection) friends showed me some footage of him from the last couple of years, with recent songs, & his singing is still excellent, for someone of any age. The man is a Cat!
This song NEVER gets old! I just have 1 question..... how in the hell do all those people sit there and not even bop their heads? Lol I'm dancing and jumping all over the house to this song!
Because that's how people behaved back then. A couple went to a nightclub. They ate, they drank, they danced, they watched a show. What's wrong with that?
@@davidwesson9277 because how could you not move to the rhythm of these songs?? that's physically impossible for me because music is supposed to move you especially UPBEAT music
This sound paints me a picture. A picture of a cold winter night, a drum with a fire burning, a cardboard box, a wooden crate, Belmont Avenue street corner in The Bronx, and three talented young men wrapped up in long jackets, outside the local store, do-wopping this song. The place where real talent is born…….Thank you Dion and the Belmonts. …………..Young people take note!
11 11 i totally agree. i would have loved to experience the 50s-60s firsthand. people say they were terrible times but, really, aren't we in terrible times now, and every other time? it doesn't take away from the culture and important societal changes that made it so special!!
Damn good question, I do feel a nostalgic feeling, happens to me a lot, as if I am remembering abother life... Probably part of it has to do with hearing them as a kid, but I will listen to an old song I never heard before and like it, and feel the same way towards it
This is one of the most adorable songs ever written and performed. Simple, basic, and beautiful. No dirty, garbage lyrics cluttering up a simple meaning. I LOVE YOU. One of the prettiest love songs you'll ever hear. Peter Noone stripes it. As a side note, if he didn't have "The Baby Face of the Century?!!" Wholesome, clean and as far away from toilet groups like the Rolling Stones as you can get. Amen to that.
I love this one so much, I literally can't get enough of it! It brings me so much joy that the moment he starts really to sing I am instantly twisting, jumping, goofing and dancing around 🤭🤸🏽♀️ So sad that today they don't do music like this anymore, such a pity.
I love this guy, i played Fallout 4 the video game and his song the Wanderer is in the game, now im listening to all his songs and he just so so so good! Old school swagger
My best friend of over 40 years passed away on August 27th 2019,,He was an old school rocker and I Ioved him like a brother,This ones for you Mike Hopper,,I hope youre still rocking with the Angels.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS SONG ‼️‼️I became a fan of this song when I was a child and still am a fan of this song and "DION"!!! THIS IS A GREAT SONG AND DION SANG IT GREAT‼️‼️‼️It was before my time and when I first heard it I instantly loved it and still sing it to this day‼️‼️🔥🔥👏👏⭐️🏆❤️🤍❤️🙂
What a damn hell of a voice! I remember my grandparents dancing to this at their 50th anniversary in the early 90’s not realizing they were pro winners once gramps came back from France. I thought the dance looked silly (I was 5) but now I tear up….not in a bad way, I just wish I would see it in person again one day! 🙏🤞❤
There's no use in acting like you were "born in the wrong generation". This is the music I like, and if it's the music you like, go out and make more. No reason the modern era can't enjoy this anymore.
Oh, I love all music! I wasn't born in the wrong generation! My Mom played Guitar and her brother the banjo! I have danced and loved Music all of my life!
I’m only 15/16 and 50s 60s & 70s music is all I listen to I love to change the channel in my parents car to this music and can sing along to most of the songs, I don’t really like the modern music because of the themes but this music is pure and I think Dion is the cutest person back then lol -edit- Here I am lol almost turning 18 still rocking with this music~ I still adore Dion to death and I actually got some records of Dion! It’s crazy how this music still plays a huge role in my life and I’ll never let it go :D
Do people know that see this-- this was the Bronx… yes man. Belmont to Fordham road. Still rocking to this and understanding from your time to 2023. That voice…. Love you Dion.
How often do I need to say this? What you're looking at is the scene from a movie. The "dead" audience is a bunch of extras. Notice the change in camera angles during his song. Floor cameras were on rolling stands and weighed a ton. Upper shots would have been "boom" cameras. The "number" was clearly edited, as in (ready) a movie! So the people likely didn't even hear the song. (Same with "The Wanderers.") If that's not enough, note the Sax player. He isn't even keying the Sax. It's-a-movie, my friends. Ghostbuster.
Thank you for all the memories Dion. Love your R&R, DooWops and especially Abraham, Martin and John that doesn't really fit any category. It's fun to watch your face light up when you do harmony Doo Wops. Everybody should have a job they enjoy that much.
I’ll never forget this one girl that absolutely took my breath away and gave me true happiness. I don’t care what she did to me. I just want the second half of my heart back from her. I miss you dolly. You completed me 😔💔
This is remeiscent of a time when caucasians actually had soul and expressed real talent. Every time I watch this video I end up with this song in my head all day.
@@SirMKeehl What thing are you referring too? I was two years old when Dion recorded this song naturally I grew up hearing it often. I liked it then and love it now, dude has soul, people of that era just could not or were not ready for it then.
Into the early 200’s is about when music started to suck imo. Always play ed the old music for my kids when they were growing up. Now at late 30’s and early 40’s they now play it for their kids. So my two grandkids know the oldies as well as us who heard it when it was new!that excites me. My two grandkids know the oldies Music well. Even my two dogs have a favorite song each. One loves sugar-sugar. My one pops her head up when I play sugar!!then gets up on her hind legs and jumps like a kangaroos until I pick her up and dance with her around the room. She’s a Pom so her mane is flooding all over the place while her tail is wagging like crazy because she is so happy to be dancing to her song with her mom! Her sister then jumps onto a recliner and starts waving her paws to let me know it’s her turn now. She loves money/money and she waves her paws like crazy until she is picked up and danced with. It’s as if she says, my turn! My turn as she barks non stop until in my arms, then at times she looks at her sister with a snobby look that says, haha! It’s now my turn. I have her now. She’s my bully so not surprised she is so conceited about having her turn and gloating about it after she has gotten her way! She’s one spoiled little girl along with her sister!. Their vintage music loving Poms! Just like the grandkids who both are the same! Four babies who love to dance to the oldies! A fun house when all four are having a great time together with grandma! I only have two grandkids and will be no more, so I take full advantage to these times, just as I did with their parents when their were little! My husband claims we drive him crazy www have the music pumped up on top volume! I make the windows rattle on the first floor of our house! It’s fun! The kids love hearing their favorite music loud and I love watching them be so happy! !! Can’t replace these times!!
I wasn't around when this song came about, I'm a child of the '70s. But this song is timeless, and Dion's vocals were perfect. God bless you, sir. CENTO ANNI!
I saw this song performed in a black and white film, I saw when I was fifteen, and it brings to me so many remembrances of those times. Really good to hear again.
Ahh the 60s. When I heard the song, I closed my eyes and thought back in time. I wasn't lucky enough to spend my youth in this decade, let alone experience anything of it (born 99), but I imagine it to be just like in the movies. Of course it's only the films from which I get my idea. But what would I give to just spend one day and one evening in this era. Everything seemed so simple and straightforward back then. I would be in college with my friends, help out in my uncle's workshop in the afternoon and in the evening drive my Ford Mustang to the annual barn festival and drink the best beer there with my mates and just dance until the morning to this song and others .
One of the most grossly underrated albums ever. What a wonderful voice.
Those are pipes that's all we know for sure
But it is not underrated. How come you insult Dion this way? He was and still is very much appreciated. This album is a master piece. This song is classic!
He has a bit of rasp to it, one talented vocalist.
I have the vinyl album.
wouldn’t say the album is very good but there are some standouts on it like this one
Dion is 84 and still on tour in 2024
What a legend 💕
Love it!!
Wow 😮❤
Is that true?
@@bernardoquiroz4197 yes. Just check on google
There you can also find his tour dates
I was in 8th grade. Glad to know he's still performing
He's 83 years old now what a singing legend rite here in 2023.
Still releasing music too!!!
I hope that he knows how much he's loved and this song being used in every dancing event ❤
I am a 81 year old teenager, I still listen to this music at least you can understand what they are singing about, the Everly Brothers once said you will never grow old with Rock n Roll....they were good years and they still are! Bless you all.....
To you as well friend
A 79-year-old teenager here😂
that's so wholesome! always keep listening to music you like no matter what!
I hope I’m still a teenager if I live to be in my 80s.
Happy age
I'm 70 years and still love this song. Also fun to dance too

Just turned 70 myself. Makes me feel 21 again.
I hope I can get my brother and friends in the band to play this at the Legion. I think we will have everyone on their feet.
I'm 41 and love this song

What a blessed life we had eh grandma? 😁love you too gran❤
His voice is amazing. What a performance. How can all these people sit there so calmly, this song begs for dancing.
I know. Every time I listen to it I just want to get up and dance to it and all that crowd are Just sitting there like zombies.
Read the first comment, it explains it.
Maybe it was proper ettiquite at that time.
That's the way that adults viewed music. The young women look enthralled.
Wiseguys
2024 and this still absolutely packs the dance floor everytime, full time dj here! What a Gem
TIMELESS!!! Don’t know why this isn’t one of the top songs still today. 👌
It is in my heart.
it is as far as I'm concerned
it should be considering how much more loose women are today...
This is one of the best…. Iconic
I feel that it still is, MANY young people LOVE it.
Dion is probably one of the best singers ever. I'm surprise he hasn't been given more recognition.
Seriously. I'm less than 30 and listen to everything from King Von to Micheal Jackson and Dion is absolutely on my top 5 of all time.
Ah...... he's in the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame! If that isn't recognition.... I don't know what is.
@@dhutch71 LOL Sick burn.
I named my second son after him.

That's how people behaved back then in a nightclub during an act. The idea was to sit and enjoy the entertainer, and not distract them.
They're all dead now so it makes sense

A picture of a cold winter night, a drum with a fire burning, a cardboard box, a wooden crate, Belmont Avenue street corner in The Bronx, and three talented young men wrapped up in long jackets, outside the local store, do-wopping this song. The place where real talent is born…….Thank you Dion and the Belmonts. …………..Young people take note!
Over fifty years later and we're feeling this more than the original audience
That's exactly what I was thinking. How can you be so stiff when hearing this song?!? Great song!
I think the video is older than 50 years, maybe nearly 60.
Omg, imagine what they'd think about all this hook-up and baby daddy culture going on now!!!! 😬
I get so homesick and get to missing my dad, I'll accidentally discover songs like this and it makes me feel at home with my dad. I love you dad.
☺️👌🏻
Touching comment
I love you too baby
What a talent and an iconic song.
why is it that we all have the same nostalgic feeling for these times, even though most of us never even experienced it ? it's so magical
11 11 i totally agree. i would have loved to experience the 50s-60s firsthand. people say they were terrible times but, really, aren't we in terrible times now, and every other time? it doesn't take away from the culture and important societal changes that made it so special!!
Damn good question, I do feel a nostalgic feeling, happens to me a lot, as if I am remembering abother life... Probably part of it has to do with hearing them as a kid, but I will listen to an old song I never heard before and like it, and feel the same way towards it
Michael Samson tell em!
11 11 the good certainly does not “out-weigh” the bad
Being white helps a ton
This is one of the most adorable songs ever written and performed. Simple, basic, and beautiful. No dirty, garbage lyrics cluttering up a simple meaning. I LOVE YOU. One of the prettiest love songs you'll ever hear. Peter Noone stripes it. As a side note, if he didn't have "The Baby Face of the Century?!!" Wholesome, clean and as far away from toilet groups like the Rolling Stones as you can get. Amen to that.
Runaround Sue is one of the greatest vocal performances of all time.
No kidding!
I love this one so much, I literally can't get enough of it! It brings me so much joy that the moment he starts really to sing I am instantly twisting, jumping, goofing and dancing around 🤭🤸🏽♀️
So sad that today they don't do music like this anymore, such a pity.
🔥
I loved watching my parents dancing to this in clubs and disco's.
I love this guy, i played Fallout 4 the video game and his song the Wanderer is in the game, now im listening to all his songs and he just so so so good! Old school swagger
... si, muy bonitas canciones y también jugué y estoy jugando Fallout 4; lo que me gustaría saber, es el nombre de la chica del 1:50 minutos...
I'm 41 and I love this song. I love so many oldies. I love everything about this era
My best friend of over 40 years passed away on August 27th 2019,,He was an old school rocker and I Ioved him like a brother,This ones for you Mike Hopper,,I hope youre still rocking with the Angels.

I'm so sorry. May his memory live on through you.
Sniff, sniff.....what great memories you must have !
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS SONG ‼️‼️I became a fan of this song when I was a child and still am a fan of this song and "DION"!!! THIS IS A GREAT SONG AND DION SANG IT GREAT‼️‼️‼️It was before my time and when I first heard it I instantly loved it and still sing it to this day‼️‼️🔥🔥👏👏⭐️🏆❤️🤍❤️🙂
No soy de esa época, pero ame el estilo y la voz excelente 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍💕💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
What a damn hell of a voice! I remember my grandparents dancing to this at their 50th anniversary in the early 90’s not realizing they were pro winners once gramps came back from France. I thought the dance looked silly (I was 5) but now I tear up….not in a bad way, I just wish I would see it in person again one day! 🙏🤞❤
I am 16 years I love listening to this kind of music.
YOU'RE RIGHT!!!!
So good
You love this MUSIC, WELCOME HOME
There's no use in acting like you were "born in the wrong generation". This is the music I like, and if it's the music you like, go out and make more. No reason the modern era can't enjoy this anymore.
Oh, I love all music! I wasn't born in the wrong generation! My Mom played Guitar and her brother the banjo! I have danced and loved Music all of my life!
Love this song...Great melody...Great voice..Pure rock and roll...Never get tired of hearing this song...
I’m only 15/16 and 50s 60s & 70s music is all I listen to I love to change the channel in my parents car to this music and can sing along to most of the songs, I don’t really like the modern music because of the themes but this music is pure and I think Dion is the cutest person back then lol
-edit-
Here I am lol almost turning 18 still rocking with this music~ I still adore Dion to death and I actually got some records of Dion! It’s crazy how this music still plays a huge role in my life and I’ll never let it go :D
I was just thinking something right along these lines right before I saw your comment!
I love old rock
Do people know that see this-- this was the Bronx… yes man. Belmont to Fordham road. Still rocking to this and understanding from your time to 2023. That voice…. Love you Dion.
Merci ❤
Thins song was way ahead of its time. Truly a groundbreaking song. Still hits home even in modern times
This guy is killing it and the audience is dead.
literally
They might be wax
You have to take the venue into consideration, this was the way to act in such a venue, sit and listen
@Spicy Señorito I was gonna comment that just looked if anyone commented cuz I don't want it to seem like I'm copying
How often do I need to say this? What you're looking at is the scene from a movie. The "dead" audience is a bunch of extras.
Notice the change in camera angles during his song. Floor cameras were on rolling stands and weighed a ton. Upper shots would have been "boom" cameras.
The "number" was clearly edited, as in (ready) a movie! So the people likely didn't even hear the song. (Same with "The Wanderers.")
If that's not enough, note the Sax player. He isn't even keying the Sax.
It's-a-movie, my friends.
Ghostbuster.
That girl in the very front with darker hair, (when they first pan at the audience) looks pissed lol. I think her name is Sue.
That woman is Sandra Dee who becomes his wife later on
@@Tripsix47 Okay I just looked this up and you're bullshit his wife is some other bitch. 😂🤨
@@peenus6952 no you ducking idiot that's who he marrried
@@Tripsix47 Sandra Dee married Bobby Darin
Never mind her, check that blonde out, she's sex on legs 😁
Wow - this music from the late 50s and early 60s was ground breaking and timeless - doesn't get much better than this.
Belated Happy 80th birthday to you Dion. Last week, I believe!
Dion's 80th birthday was July 18th!
Happy Belated Birthday, Dion🌺🤩✨🙌💋
What is it with these old songs , that give you goosebumps❤️
Sometimes the pacemaker does some unusual things!
I was Between 5--10 years old, this music meant something, special moments special time, great dancing tunes life was a pleasure back then wholesome .
An amazing and wonderful generation!
Just listened again, wow fantastic music Dion and thank you! bless you....
Thank you for all the memories Dion. Love your R&R, DooWops and especially Abraham, Martin and John that doesn't really fit any category. It's fun to watch your face light up when you do harmony Doo Wops. Everybody should have a job they enjoy that much.
I was born in 1953! I grew up with so many good songs! I was born in the right generation! Got to love all kinds of music!
memories love it
Me too - 1953 is the year I checked-in! HS Class of 1971.
@@stringalongmike1953 Yeah, I graduated in 1971, too!
Still love these songs but love all the music that followed! Ended up loving Country the best!
A very handsome dude in my teenage years. Love all of his music...
I’ll never forget this one girl that absolutely took my breath away and gave me true happiness. I don’t care what she did to me. I just want the second half of my heart back from her. I miss you dolly. You completed me 😔💔
This is remeiscent of a time when caucasians actually had soul and expressed real talent. Every time I watch this video I end up with this song in my head all day.
Except for the ones in the audience @1:00
@@HaleStorm49 True! They were unimpressed simply because that style of music was deemed unacceptable for that time.
what a thing to say
@@SirMKeehl What thing are you referring too? I was two years old when Dion recorded this song naturally I grew up hearing it often. I liked it then and love it now, dude has soul, people of that era just could not or were not ready for it then.
@@HaleStorm49😅
2023 and im banging this out!!! What a tune!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊
1955 to 1970 golden years in American music....
Absolutely.
Into the early 200’s is about when music started to suck imo. Always play ed the old music for my kids when they were growing up. Now at late 30’s and early 40’s they now play it for their kids. So my two grandkids know the oldies as well as us who heard it when it was new!that excites me. My two grandkids know the oldies Music well. Even my two dogs have a favorite song each. One loves sugar-sugar. My one pops her head up when I play sugar!!then gets up on her hind legs and jumps like a kangaroos until I pick her up and dance with her around the room. She’s a Pom so her mane is flooding all over the place while her tail is wagging like crazy because she is so happy to be dancing to her song with her mom! Her sister then jumps onto a recliner and starts waving her paws to let me know it’s her turn now. She loves money/money and she waves her paws like crazy until she is picked up and danced with. It’s as if she says, my turn! My turn as she barks non stop until in my arms, then at times she looks at her sister with a snobby look that says, haha! It’s now my turn. I have her now. She’s my bully so not surprised she is so conceited about having her turn and gloating about it after she has gotten her way! She’s one spoiled little girl along with her sister!. Their vintage music loving Poms! Just like the grandkids who both are the same! Four babies who love to dance to the oldies! A fun house when all four are having a great time together with grandma! I only have two grandkids and will be no more, so I take full advantage to these times, just as I did with their parents when their were little! My husband claims we drive him crazy www have the music pumped up on top volume! I make the windows rattle on the first floor of our house! It’s fun! The kids love hearing their favorite music loud and I love watching them be so happy! !! Can’t replace these times!!
I'm 82 and love Dions music
Omg! One of my favorite songs! Listened to this all the time in the 70's for me & TODAY!
I may be an 80s child but Dion's music has always spoken to me. Dude has soul!
I wasn't around when this song came about, I'm a child of the '70s. But this song is timeless, and Dion's vocals were perfect. God bless you, sir. CENTO ANNI!
Great memory. Love the song, it was and still is my favorite.
Great performer! So charismatic! I always come back to see this video again and again. It makes me want to sing and dance!
How do i not see people's head moving with the rhythm this is a BANGER
They're actors! Although the couple at the upper left seemed to be tapping table.
Right??
Bc it was not in their culture at that time/for that part of society
It wasn't In the mafia to applaud someone they thought below them, it showed weakness! what a shittty rule
Class that’s why
61 years later and the song Is still popular at car shows ! I'm sure Dions music was rockin the dance floors back in the 60's ..
Yep, we were twisting the night away!
Awesome looking fella, talented n knows his music ❤❤❤
I saw this song performed in a black and white film, I saw when I was fifteen, and it brings to me so many remembrances of those times. Really good to hear again.
love Dion, i remember as a young boy growing up at the time, my dad would tell me these are those who sing for their dinner, I was definitely willing
These old remastered videos are amazing. I just love music from this era and it makes my day to see material from those days.
I’m a lover of hard rock & Metal but you just can’t deny the classics like this. Fantastic !!
Ahh the 60s. When I heard the song, I closed my eyes and thought back in time. I wasn't lucky enough to spend my youth in this decade, let alone experience anything of it (born 99), but I imagine it to be just like in the movies. Of course it's only the films from which I get my idea. But what would I give to just spend one day and one evening in this era. Everything seemed so simple and straightforward back then. I would be in college with my friends, help out in my uncle's workshop in the afternoon and in the evening drive my Ford Mustang to the annual barn festival and drink the best beer there with my mates and just dance until the morning to this song and others .
