Thanks to Sarah Collins; a generation of young people can be exposed to some beautiful music of the past I enjoy visiting "Flea Markets" and "Garage Sales" I'm always amazed at discovering "ancient" 45 RPM and 33 1/3 vinyl recordings - a tattered old album that contains great songs: Spanish Harlem There Goes My Baby Save the Last Dance for Me This Magic Moment Stand By Me Under the Boardwalk Sand in My Shoes Beautiful melodies, great harmonies, wonderful lyrics! Thanks Sarah for treasuring some musty oldies. I think it would be fun to know some children who may be wide eyed discovering grand dads record player and LPs. It time for a generation of children to experience MELODY and HARMONY and wonderful lyrics!
Sarah, If I were forced to choose between being "up on the roof" or "under the boardwalk", I think I would pick the former. Your cover singing simply makes the roof mystique, (which, as you know, I've painted), all the more vivid, dreamlike, yet somehow grounded. It takes a magician of a singer to pull off something like this, Sarah!! xx.
Thank you so much Sarah I had a really bad day with some bad news and with your smile and beautiful singing you put a little sunshine in my life today! Thank you gorgeous and very talented woman
Hi Sarah, Thank you for sharing a sweet oldie. It brings back memories of the 60's. You did a great job, and bringing it to a newer level. I look forward hearing more of your songs. Bob : )
Another Golden Oldie for me to sing along with . Nice rendition by you although I can't say the same for me but I have great fun singing. Regards, Jim in NI
STILL carnt get this song outta my head brilliant sound sarah just keep banging motown and northern soul sounds out . brilliant girl go get em im a northern lass threw and threw .
Hi Sarah. I am hooked on your videos. I play them often. You are awesome. They always bring a smile to my face. True feel good music. Keep them coming.
When this old world starts getting me down And people are just too much for me to face I climb way up to the top of the stairs And all my cares just drift right into space On the roof, it's peaceful as can be And there the world below can't bother me Let me tell you now When I come home feelin' tired and beat I go up where the air is fresh and sweet (up on the roof) I get away from the hustling crowd And all that rat-race noise down in the street (up on the roof) On the roof, the only place I know Where you just have to wish to make it so Let's go up on the roof (up on the roof) At night the stars put on a show for free And, darling, you can share it all with me I keep a-tellin' you Right smack dab in the middle of town I've found a paradise that's trouble proof (up on the roof) And if this world starts getting you down There's room enough for two Up on the roof (up on the roof) Up on the roo-oo-oof (up on the roof) Oh, come on, baby (up on the roof) Oh, come on, honey (up on the roof) FADE Everything is all right (up on the roof)
Miss Sarah, I finished another wood working project a couple hours ago so I have been sitting at the computer with head phones on listening to your great songs and playing sudoku. I love this song. Great cover. All of your great songs put a smile on my face and make me feel good. Thank you for singing so many great songs for us. We love them.
It's me I just keep loving your music keep on singing girl it's kind of late for me over here it's like 2:00 in the morning and I'm still listening to you just can't stop I'm addicted to old school music that makes sense so you keep on singing girl love you peace out
Fabulous cover of this beautiful Carol King song. I've been searching for a great version of this song by a female, and I've found it! Better than Carol King's original version. Well done, Sarah!
Another great song! I love your song choices. You must be enjoying yourself when you sing? (just like me). :) Your Christmas tree is really pretty. Well what can I say but I wish you lots of enjoyment with your beautiful singing. I'll surely come back again to listen in more..and thank you for sharing you songs with us.. BW, Carol

Been away a few days and catching up. And real glad I caught up with a wonderful cover from you Sarah. Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas friend.
THANK'S SO MUCH FOR your respoce-as far as lou rawls goes i can't touch him he is so great! nina is a class act! we were in the movie upgrade neither of us had a speaking part i'm in it 28 times i think!
I'm a nurse, and I was told to go to tell a consultant some results were through. I walked to his office and I could hear this song playing, I knocked but got no answer. So I sneakily opened the door to see him in his scrubs dancing round his office. He had his back to me and I watched for what seemed like ages. Then he noticed me. All of a sudden he coughed and said "Ah yes Michelle, those results back are they?" I couldn't stop laughing, he could certainly bust a move. I don't think he's made eye contact with me since ! I have shown him your videos and he thinks you're great too.
I HAVE TO SAY sarah finding you on fb is better than anything . id love to chat to you sometime ive been into northern soul motown disco for many yrs . iadmire you and what youve been threw . YOU ARE RIGHT UP THERE with big names keep the faith my friend.x
You sure do justice to all of your covers by The Drifters! A classic song and a magnificent rendition!! Very well done my lovely Sarah!! 🥰😍😘💘💗💓💞💕❤👍🎶🎙
omg just found this girl I love this kinda music she has an amazing voice great covers
A great song I'd forgotten about. Your voice really suits the song just the right tone of world weariness and happiness in those high notes.
I've watched this performance countless times and just noticed I've never commented but I wanted YOU to know I LOVE this video!@!
Thanks to Sarah Collins; a generation of young people can be exposed to some beautiful music of the past
I enjoy visiting "Flea Markets" and "Garage Sales" I'm always amazed at discovering "ancient" 45 RPM and 33 1/3 vinyl recordings - a tattered old album that contains great songs:
Spanish Harlem
There Goes My Baby
Save the Last Dance for Me
This Magic Moment
Stand By Me
Under the Boardwalk
Sand in My Shoes
Beautiful melodies, great harmonies, wonderful lyrics!

When this old world starts getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face
I climb way up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares just drift right into space
On the roof, it's peaceful as can be
And there the world below can't bother me
Let me tell you now
When I come home feelin' tired and beat
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet (up on the roof)
I get away from the hustling crowd
And all that rat-race noise down in the street (up on the roof)
On the roof, the only place I know
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Let's go up on the roof (up on the roof)
At night the stars put on a show for free
And, darling, you can share it all with me
I keep a-tellin' you
Right smack dab in the middle of town
I've found a paradise that's trouble proof (up on the roof)
And if this world starts getting you down
There's room enough for two
Up on the roof (up on the roof)
Up on the roo-oo-oof (up on the roof)
Oh, come on, baby (up on the roof)
Oh, come on, honey (up on the roof)
FADE
Everything is all right (up on the roof)
OMG.. love your voice. Keep the tunes coming. Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Oh, bellissima! One of my favorite Drifters tracks, now with Sarah Magic! I love your covers! Every classic song you sing, you make better!

Fabulous cover of this beautiful Carol King song. I've been searching for a great version of this song by a female, and I've found it! Better than Carol King's original version. Well done, Sarah!
Although King/Goffin wrote this. It was the great Drifters version, that catapulted this song into the stratosphere, back in '62.
Just brilliant 😀👍👍

I'm a nurse, and I was told to go to tell a consultant some results were through. I walked to his office and I could hear this song playing, I knocked but got no answer. So I sneakily opened the door to see him in his scrubs dancing round his office. He had his back to me and I watched for what seemed like ages. Then he noticed me. All of a sudden he coughed and said "Ah yes Michelle, those results back are they?" I couldn't stop laughing, he could certainly bust a move. I don't think he's made eye contact with me since ! I have shown him your videos and he thinks you're great too.
great talent
❤️
VERY NICE 👏👏
