Back in my youth, this little girl sang out so loud on our AM radio in the Eastern Tennesee Mountains during my summer vacations! Well, I am still loveing that little girl with that biggest voice from the hills!
Even now, so many decades later.....when I listen to Brenda Lee & that signature raspy energy & swing she owned - that btw, paved the way for many styles to come, it (she) warms my heart & puts a humongous smile on my face. What a voice. God bless you Brenda ❤
I was 11 when she sang this on TV. I was in singalong heaven. Thanks, Ms. Lee for making it matter, singing it! Brenda had a little scar between her eyebrows..sometimes I saw it, sometimes not. It was not unsightly, it was part of her character...and while she was a powerhouse, it also made her so real.
best part I can tell them apart. Now my ultimate number one favorite is my beloved Dolly Parton. today I don't know who is singing they all sound alike
This was the flip side to her mega hit, I'm Sorry. It was marketed as the A side. She had just hit it big with "Sweet Nothin's" and they were going to follow it up with another upbeat song. But the DJ's started flipping the record and playing the ballad. What was unique is I'm Sorry went to #1 and stayed there several weeks at the same time this song went to the top ten, peaking at #6. She had TWO songs in the top ten on the same record!
Adoravel Brenda Lee saudades década de 50 e 60, a juventude se encantava e sonhava aqui no Brasil seria impossivel assistir ao vivo Brenda hoje com youtube podemos relembrar e ver e se encantar com nossos idolos, Brenda Lee, Conie Francis, e tantas estrelas que marcou nossa infancia e juventude.
That little gal can Go!!!!!!! Brenda is little Miss Dynamic... in every record she made!!!!!! Check Brenda out here on the TH-cam.. she is dancing and getting down with Clarence Clemons.. performing this same song.... go check that one out.. the women's got soul honey!!!!

Jerry Reed wrote the song
Simple as A .B.C.
Call me! Bill.
b side of I am sorry
WRITTEN BY JERRY REED!
Brenda was an early downsized female rocker, to be followed by downsized male rockers like Eric (the Animals) and Van (Them, from Belfast). All three must have faced at least some peer group pressure from ""the usual gang of idiots" (to borrow a phrase from Mad Magazines). Yet, their jeerers are now mostly dust, but Brenda, Eric, and Van rock on!~
Why she's "Little Miss Dynomite".
wonder if the girls in the audience have seen this
THATS REAL MUSIC NOT NOT THE CRAP TODAY
vrai
Tired but true!
It's not live....why say it is?

Dear Prof. Everett,
You are my musical guru when it comes to descriptive knowledge of the singing voice. I was wondering if you could please describe Brenda Lee's singing voice at the ages of thirteen through seventeen. Some have described it as 'shredding' and 'southern flat'. However, that does not sound like what a professional description would be. Could you please elaborate on it?
Thank you very much for your time. Your book 'The Foundations of Rock' was a great read for me.
Sincerely,

Не жевать жвачку считалось у вас неприличным в то время? )))
very young Brenda , was very cute .original style ,catchy voice, she didnt need to show her bare body ,to gain more attention, like today crappy female singers do
Live???? Uh, not really.
I don't think she's singing this tune! Nice video though!
JR MuscBear This was taken from a recording. I've got it. I loved the song then and still do!
Cómo..conocer un falso profeta.con esta.cancion mentira...y .la nariz...gracias...
