You could honestly pick any generation of music and be happy with it. There is something for everyone. but the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s were definitely my favorite. My dad ALWAYS had them on in the garage while he was building little projects for the house. I’d sit and watch and eat popcorn and occasionally help him hold something. It’s weird seeing these music videos. My imagination as a kid pictured a totally different image, from the singers to the scenery. Thanks to all musicians and producers who put this together…and to the uploaders to who brought it to us on RU-vid!
I grew up listening to Country in the 70s and 80s, and Classic Country remains one of my favorites. I didn't like 80s Pop at the time, but I started listening to 50s-60s Rock/Pop/Doo-Wop around the age of 10. I later came to appreciate 80s music after college , but there was less and less on the radio that I wanted to hear. Country died around 1995 and then everything turned to sh*t in the 90s and into the new millennium, so except for Classic Rock, I don't turn the radio on anymore. If I wasn't a Chiefs fan, I wouldn't know Taylor Swift from Rip Taylor.
@davidrogers6287 No, it was the America I grew up in which doesn't exist anymore thanks to china joe and the Berlin DC nazicrats sanctioning Invasion USA.
@@davidrogers6287 In the late 50's and early 60's I used to camp out on the Mexican beaches all of the time. Today I would need to take a reenforced rifle platoon, with me, to do the same. Some things, not all, were better then. Speeding tickets were treated like parking tickets. Pay the fine, no such things as points on your driving record. My last two years in high school auto shop I built, with the help of the teacher, a 1923 bathtub Ford Touring hotrod. Had a big Chrysler engine. Could burn rubber in all three gears. My mom paid for the insurance. For one year, seventy-five dollars. I had friends that built hotrods and custom cars in the street in front of their house. Try that today. I could go on all day, but I think you get the picture. No need to live in Disneyland in those days.
I had the honor to play my guitar on the stage of the VA at Tuskegee and I was so proud to see my nurses and fellow Veterans enjoy my performance and no matter what anyone says I have that memory no one can take away ❤ Mac, got it on video as well...
Década del 60, una gran película, un elenco maravilloso, y una banda de sonido inolvidable. Il Sorpasso, fiel representante de la mejor adolescencia que tuve.
Class of '62 here. You said it pal. The 2020s are a "drag" "man"! Dragstrips, drive ins, there's not many left. Social media, insane people, crappy lookin crossovers...the list goes on. The 50s- early 60s were the best time to be a teen/20s.
I so remember silencing to Radio Luxembourg with I single ear piece in a cheap wireless when I was supposed to be asleep. Why did we get 30 seconds of great reception and 30 seconds on static? Such memories.
Сиквел (1979 года) фильма "Американские граффити" 1973-го года. И в нём нет грязи, насколько мне известно, как в израильской "Горячей жевательной резинке". Это светлый и приятный фильм.
На самом деле, видеоряд на эту оригинальную версию песни очень хорош и к месту, лучше в сто раз, чем сам фильм. Клип похож на какую-то приятную, светлую мелодраму (а не тупую комедию) про влюблённость в молодости и зарождение возможных крепких отношений. Прямо юность в душе пробуждается. Автор молодец, умница)
The video clip is from the 2nd movie of "More American Graffiti when the gang from the 1st movie are out of High School. Some pursued their careers got married and raised families. John Milner was racing on racetracks hoping to hit the big time and Toad joined the Service went to Vietnam and later went MIA. That's from where the movie came from and both American Graffiti movies are worth watching. This one is the 2nd movie.
@@joegongora2200 Да, благодарю за отзыв. Первый я смотрел давным-давно, второй тоже, но только начало -- эти фильмы прародители ретро-волны кинолент 1970-80-ых, типа "Горячей жевательной резинки". Мне понравилось, как именно здесь, в этом клипе сделали, вместе со знаменитым шлягером -- стало больше походить на какую-то лирическую мелодраму юношеских отношений...
Just been to last show of their last tour .frank and john ( both in this clip.) still with band after more than 60 years. Both over 80 they were brilliant.❤
This is the video of the 2nd movie of "More American Graffiti". When the gang was already out of High School and some married and raised families. John Milner was racing on racetracks Toad went to Vietnam and later went MIA. A good song such as Runaway had been picked for the video clip. Of course it's Del Shannon that's singing but this version of Runaway had been recorded in 1982 for KTELL Records. I had this song on a cassette tape along other updated songs with other artists. Del Shannon's voice is different than the original 1961 version of Runaway. Max Crook still sat in with his Musitron on this updated version of Runaway. Justice was done to the song when modern recording equipment was used on this updated version of Runaway. When Del Shannon started recording in the early 60's record companies always watered down his sound. Del Shannon had been an influenced on other performers and Rockers. His music will always live on.
@@symbiosisai in the movie like it was done throughout the 60’s John Milner had died. When they showed him racing on racetracks than it was 1964. He died on New Years Eve 1964 when he was killed by a drunk driver he didn’t make to New Year’s Day 1965. When they showed events of the others it was later events of the 60’s. Events like being involved in protest marches and Toad fighting in Vietnam. Yes you were right because John Milner had died but the sequel is worth watching. It’s entitled more “More American Graffiti”.
Yes that’s so true the people and the music was so awesome you could walk down any street any time day or night good old days 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Growing up in old bethpage long island as a teenager we would park our car and just drop the keys on the floor mat. And your car was still there in the morning. Lol 😆
In every age " The good old days were just a myth " No-one ever thought they were good at the time . For every age has had hardships that seemed intolerable to the people who lived through them ! 😢
According to the text at the ending credits of the first American Graffiti, John Milner was killed by a drunk driver. The ending of Graffiti II showing the car headlights on the wrong side of the road implies that is what is about to happen to him.
I was a teenager during the last real years of Hot Rods. 57 chevys , 72 Roadrunners, 66 Malibu's, 32 Roadsters Graduated Gr 12 in 1979 had a 1967 Ford LTD Dr Hardtop, Gregers, Blue Bottles, Holly Carb, 4 barrel. 390cu. These young guys today, make me laugh Nowadays its loud Honda Civics etc,....... Really?
As I walk along, I wonder A what went wrong whit our love A love that was so strong And as I still walk on I think of the thing's we've done Together, while our hearts were young I'm a walkin' in the rain Tears are fallin' and I feel a pain A wishin' you were here by me To end this misery And I wonder, I wa wa wa wa wonder Why a why why why why why She ran away And I wonder where she will stay My little runaway My run run run run runaway I'm a walking in the rain Tears are fallin' and I feel a pain A wishin' you were here by me To end this misery And I wonder, I wa wa wa wa wonder Why a why why why why why She ran away And I wonder where she will stay My little runaway A run run run run Runaway
He may have been humble, and I sure did and do like him. I'm very glad to find out that he was the kind of man he portrayed on screen . That makes my copying him a good thing, but. He was a body builder, and like all the body builders I ever met, all you have to say is they are looking a little soft, and it's off to the gym where they work out like maniacs. Works Everytime with every body builder. Would I have done that to him, you bet.
Good clip from MAG. Which could be Maga. More American Graffiti Again. Milner was cool. Guess they didn't do polls back then about popularity. They would have done a third ala the Ballad of John Milner. More interesting than a Will Smith movie
