I met Pat today at a book signing (he signed for over 600 people!) and he was incredibly kind and personable, I talked to him about the whistling solo, he attempted to whistle but had a dry mouth, so I whistled it for him and he totally lit up with a huge smile, it was one of the most wonderful moments of my life, I'll never forget it. God Bless Mr. Boone!
I always liked how Pat Boone sang so naturally without screaming or forcing his voice which was so great to hear. I was 12 when I first heard this song in 1958, I recall I was on a beach lying down enjoying the sun and this song played in Mother's transistor radio.
Great songs , so romantic and full of joynis. I m 36 years old but we need this kind of music back . We need more love Letters agains war and hate . God bless all
I'm using my wife's account to comment. I'm Bill. I'm a ballad singer and could once whistle like that. Now it comes and goes. I learned to whistle from my Dad and uncle both of whom were great. Also good singers. The singing part is much easier than the whistling.
That was wonderful. Pat Boone had the boy next door kind of image. He had such a good voice, he was handsome, and always well dressed. He also sang really good songs. What more could we have asked for back in the late 50s and early 60s when he was very popular. He also sang really good songs.

On a day like today We passed the time away Writing love letters in the sand How you laughed when I cried Each time I saw the tide Take our love letters from the sand You made a vow that you would always be true But somehow that vow meant nothing to you Now my broken heart just aches With every wave that breaks Over love letters in the sand Now my broken heart just aches With every wave that breaks Over love letters in the sand

I listened to this music when I was learning english when I was a teenager in 1975. My teacher was a Boone fan and played this music in our class. I had never seen him on video.
Hi John! Good, Very good to listen to Pat. I'm a Boone fan. He's the best! In fact hei is! Listining to him, reminds me the good times when I was only a boy!
Pat Boone got to bother the rockers and rollers when, in his records sang true Rock 'n' Roll, Rhythm & Blues, Rock-A-Ballads; and, when he sang on TV programs, he softened them. "Tutti Frutti", "Love Letters in the Sand" in his discs are true rock 'n' roll and rock-a-ballad, respectively. I prefer to hear his rock and roll and rock-a-ballads in his recordings - never live on tv.
On this day in 1957 {Oct. 3rd} Pat Boone performed "Love Letters in the Sands" on the premier of his ABC-TV program 'The Pat Boone Chevy Showroom'. Five months earlier on May 6th it entered Billboard's Top 100 chart; and on June 10th it peaked at #1 {for 5 weeks} and spent well over a half-year on the Top 100 {34 weeks}. The record's B-side, "Bernardine", also charted, it reached #14 and stayed on the Top 100 for almost a half-year {25 weeks}. Both songs were featured in the movie 'Bernardine'.
No karaoke version of this can even come close to his whistling, it was fantastic, not to mention his version of this great song. But his whistling is something to behold, a talent that is off the charts!

Aloha Pat Boone and John1948NineE !!! Thanks for posting this masterpiece of "Love Letters In The Sand." Growing up as a teenager, your song was one of my favorites and I still try to sing along with you on RU-vid. Take care and God bless !!! Robert S. J. Hu August 26, 2020.

This was a hit song in the 1931 and I like weird music like this. I'll never forget the time all the power went out in the summer and this was on a cassette in my car and I thought "what a perfect song for folks going nuts".
One of the best male voices in the fifties. Elvis was good and had charisma but for me Pat's voice is better. And this song is so tender and brings to me so many remembrances of that year I was 12. I graduated from Elementary School then. Nice remembrances.

Not only am I madly in love with his music, his conservative values also make him extremely attractive to me. He seems to be a very educated and handsome fellow, even nowadays
I don't know what your professor hates about Boone but most people denigrate him for being a less than rocking rocker. Well, Pat wasn't a rocker. He was a crooner who was trying to make the best of the transition from the old style singers to the new rock and roll. He was kind of caught in the middle. Boone was much better than people give him credit for.
