Also note the lyrics were written and sung by Sally Stevens. As a professional, yet not famous session vocalist, her name does not appear in the credits. After 50 years, I finally found this out from reading the Dec-2022 issue of American Motorcyclist. During her career she did back up vocals for Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, Sonny & Cher, Dean Martin, Andy Williams, Nat King Cole, Neil Diamond, Wayne Newton & others. She also sang on many TV shows including; The Simpsons, The Smothers Bros, Carol Burnett show, Love Boat, Happy Days - and movies; Jaws, Indiana Jones, Planet of the Apes, so all of us reading this have most likely, unknowingly heard her voice in other venues. Quite interesting is that she had never ridden a motorcycle alone, only as a passenger. When this project came up, she asked her brother, who owned a bike, to again take her riding so she could "feel the experience, understand the details, and have the thoughts" to put the words on paper. At this time, 12/2022, she is still alive & well, living in LA, aged 83.
For 50 years I wondered who the vocalist was!!! My December issue of American Motorcyclist magazine has an article all about the writer and singer who is Sally Stevens. She touched millions of us. My eyes still tear up a bit when On Any Sunday comes to an end. I might put it in my will that it has to be played when they sprinkle my ashes.
"I only want you to be happier.... I only need you, til I cum..." been singing it like this since I was 14 and first found these guys lol. Thanks Fallon, you used to be a good guy.
still a young person discovering this world, but i'm really glad my dad showed me this movie. despite being a senior, he still acts as young as he did when this movie came out. glad to see other people who enjoy and remember this masterpiece.
I remember going to see this movie as a young kid. It was very cool, and it was all the buzz in elementary school for a little while. And then "Evel Knievel" came out. On any what, now...?
