You guys are really getting into the American Graffiti soundtrack!! Watch the movie. You’ll love it. It’s set in 1962. Last night of summer. Cruising and rock and roll

I haven't seen that movie since I was a kid and I'm 46 now. I actually thought about it the other day. Think I'll rewatch it soon.

"When this old world starts getting me down, and people are just too much for me to face." Those lyrics still apply today. Maybe even more so. "I climb way up to the top of the stairs, and all my cares just drift right into space." Perhaps a metaphor for getting the hell away. "On the roof, its peaceful as can be. And there the world below can't bother me." We all need a place to chill like that.

We used to dance "the Stroll" at the sock-hops" (held in the school gym where you had to take off your shoes to protect the floor). It was great because you could ask a girl to dance that you didn't really know (yes, kids, we used to do that - face to face and ask for a date) and she wouldn't feel any pressure.

@Lakeshore14 Год назад

Oh wow. I’m loving that you’re reaching back to the 50s and 60s to react to some of the greatest music ever. Thank you so much. The Diamonds had a few big hits including The Stroll, which was one of the dances popular at that time. Love your channel. 👏👏🇨🇦🇨🇦

@joannevincent2035 Год назад

In this genre -"The Lion Sleeps Tonight" by The Tokens is a MUST HEAR !! Rocketed to #1 in 1961. The lead singer, Jay Siegel, still rocked the falsetto in a PBS reunion concert/program in 2000.

@johntiggleman4686 Год назад

That was a kind of rip-off of "Wimoweh." but I still like it.

Mel's Drive In is from the movie "American Graffiti" a movie made about the year 1962, released in 1973. Richard Dreyfus, Ronnie Howard and host of other stars were in this comedy of growing up and leaving home. Worth a Watch. This song Little Darlin' was really meant to be comical anyway. the whole movie has a fifties and early 60's soundtrack playing throughout, pre- Beatles.

On their last weekend of business, they changed everything on the menu to 1962 prices (because the movie supposedly takes place in '62). My friends and I went there during that final weekend, and totally pigged out on steak dinners for $1.50, cold drinks for 10 cents, burgers for 25 cents, etc. Good times.

I was a teenager in the 70s and there was a lot of 50s revival nostalgia. Of course "American Graffiti" was big but TV shows like "Happy Days" and "Laverne and Shirley" were also popular and we had "sock hops" at school. I had a 50s compilation album with this song on it.

@db4982 Год назад

The 50s was a great time for music! A few of my favorites are 'Lonely Teardrops' by Jackie Wilson and 'Come Go With Me' by The Del- Vikings. I think you'll enjoy the movie 'American Graffit.' Although it's set in the early 60s, the soundtrack includes a lot of the songs from the 1950s, too.

@roypartible9759 Год назад

You guys really should watch "La Bamba" Great movie and great insight into the life of the legendary Ritchie Valens. The concert towards the end featuring Buddy Holly, Eddie Cochran, The Big Bopper and Jackie Wilson, along with Ritchie is amazingly done. And the performances by the the actors playing them gives you goosebumps.

@marinamartinez6886 Год назад

You guys should watch a live performance of this song as the guy with the high falsetto voice is hilarious to watch! Also you might consider "Love Potion #9" by The Clovers, "Stranded in the Jungle" by The Cadets, "Charlie Brown" or "Yakety Yak" by The Coasters or even "Baby Sitting Boogie" by Buzz Clifford. There were so many fun songs back then. Love that '58 Edsel in that picture. I once restored a '59 Edsel myself :) There's also "Please Mr. Custer" by Larry Verne, "Snoopy VS The Red Baron" by The Royal Guardsmen, "Pink Shoe Laces" by Dodie Stevens, "Kookie, Kookie, Lend Me Your Comb" by Ed Byrnes & Connie Stevens, "Along Came Jones" by The Coasters, I could name fun novelty songs from that era all day, lol.

When I was little, I came across a bunch of my mom's old records, from the 50s when she was a teenager (I'm 63). It was a stack of 45 rpm, 78 rpm and 33 1/3 rpm vinyl, and this one was one of my favorites! I'd sit there next to our big cabinet stereo, replaying it over and over, until I had memorized every lyric, every note, both instrumental and vocal. What a song! Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

@kentclark6420 Год назад

One song that really epitomizes the 50s to me is 'Little Star', by the Elegants. 'The Stroll' (also a dance), by these guys was mentioned in the comments, and you can see a scene in American Graffiti of the students dancing to it. Just about every big song from that era was in the film. And Wolfman Jack- the greatest Dj of all time! Some doo wop classics are 'There's a moon out tonight', 'Come and go with me', 'Blue Moon', 'The Duke of Earl', 'The book of love', and 'I wonder why', by Dion and the Belmonts. 'Those oldies but goodies' is another I'm partial to.

@dougellis8904 5 месяцев назад

The Diamonds were a 50's Canadian quartet and had another big hit called The Stroll. I have always believed that John Lennon used the spoken section of this song as a template for the spoken section in his Happiness Is A Warm Gun song.

She'd drag me out into the middle of the living room floor and practice all those wonderful 50's dance moves so I learned them at an early age.

Excellent you are exploring music from that era. Here's a few others to consider: Jimmy Gilmer and the Fireballs - *"Sugar Shack"* ...(This record was produced by Norman Petty in Clovis, New Mexico. He was the man who discovered Buddy Holly) Bobby Darin - *"Dream Lover"* Bobby Darin - *"Splish Splash"* ...(This is early Bobby Darin. It has a more rocking feel than songs he did later in his career) Paul and Paula - *"Hey Paula"* ...(Two friends from college recorded this is a small Texas town. A local DJ heard it and soon became a huge hit for the duo.) Shelley Fabares - *"Johnny Angel"* ...(Shelley was the teenaged star of the "Donna Reed Show" and was Elvis' leading lady in three of his movies.) Nino Tempo and April Stevens - *"...Deep Purple"* (A hit for this brother and sister in 1963. The song was covered by many artists. Music written in 1933, lyrics added in 1938) The Poni-Tails - *"Born Too Late"* ...(This song was actually the B-side of another song. It reached #7 on the Billboard Top 100 in the year 1958. The Murmaids - *"Popsicles and Icicles"* ...(Amber, you'll be pleased to know this is one of the first songwriting successes that David Gates had before his Bread days!) Dusty Springfield - *"Wishin & Hopin'"* ...(An early Burt Bacharach co-write. Dusty is also remembered for her hit, "Son of a Preacher Man") Sam Cooke - *"You Send Me"* The Drifters - *"Save The Last Dance For me"* ...(A much covered song throughout the years) The Chiffons - *"He's So Fine"* ...(This was the song that George Harrison was famously sued for allegedly stealing the melody for his song, "My Sweet Lord") Brenda Lee - *"Sweet Nothings"* ...(Brenda "Little Miss Dynamite" Lee showing her _superb_ rockabilly chops! This is excellent stuff!!) Bobby Vee - *"Take Good Care Of My Baby"* The Shangri Las - *"Remember (Walking In The Sand)"* ...(This song was covered by Aerosmith many years later, Proof the song aged really well) The Lennon Sisters - *"Tonight You Belong To Me"* ...(The harmonies of these girls was simply fantastic and perfect!

Why do Fools Fall in Love by Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers is another great one. Look for a video of them performing.

It's funny Amber mentioned she got an Elvis vibe from this song,Elvis covered it on stage (though somewhat comedically) in the 70s

You should try: Little Eva: Loco-Motion Frankie Avalon: Booby Socks to Stockings Brian Hyland: Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka-Dot Bikini Tennessee Ernie Ford: 16 Tons Richie Valens: Donna These are all from the same time period and were songs I listened to growing up from my mom’s old 45 rpm records.

Give "Cara Mia " by Jay and the American if still doing 50 & 60 music sure you'll like

This was written by Gladiolas, a black vocal group, leader Maurice Williams, inspired by the same girl who was the subject of "Stay" 1960 Williams with the Zodiacs. He says he was madly in love with her, but couldn't make it work.

I was born in the 50's to teen parents so, I grew up listening to this music. This song is my mother's favorite. I remember watching my mom chitterbugging with her sister to all these songs. She's 82 now, and still dancing.

This song was played for years. The Bassman voice was part of lots of songs. "Precious Love" by The Temptations comes to mind.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane. Now age 74, this was the music I grew up with and still love so much. Interestingly, in my teen years, there was a curbside grill that had a bubble on top where the local radio station broadcast from on the weekends. The bubble was overlooking the parking area where we would dance (called the shag) and the DJ would comment on who was there and their dancing style while on the air. It was called Sonny C’s and the DJ was broadcasting from the “Bird On The Curb.” Great music and fun times. It was music performed by pure talent. I have been following y’all for some time and so enjoy all your reactions, especially the stroll back in time. Beyond Motown, may I suggest that you explore some Philly Soul music. You will find it hard to stay still listening. As Philly Soul grew in popularity, it migrated south and morphed into Carolina Beach music. I’m in North Carolina and we loved to shag. I suggest that you check out The Band of Oz (any selection), The Embers, Chairmen of the Board, Bill Dill and the Rondells etc! I have a Pandora station called Carolina Beach Music and when I listen, I’m in heaven. Thanks from a true fan!

God my dad used to play this, was one of his faves, always heard this growing up, brings back good memories, sadly my dad is no longer with us. In American graffiti movie Ron Howard was in it , now a famous director.😎👌 Other great 50s songs are Pledging My Love by Johnny Ace, We belong together by Robert & Johnny, Keep A knockin by Little Richard, Wonder why by Dion & the Belmonts, Harlem Nocturne by The Viscounts (instrumental), Little bitty pretty one by Thurston Harris, Rock 'n Roll is here to stay, by Danny & The Juniors, Bony Moronie by Larry Williams. All awesome 50s songs I think you'll enjoy guys.😎👌🎷🎶

Paul Anka: You are My Destiny Cher: The Shoop Shoop Song The Rays: Silhouettes The Tokens: The Lion Sleeps Tonight Jay Black & The Americans: Cara Mia Shelley Fabres: Johnny Angel The Shangra Las: Leader of the Pack Gary DeCarlo: Na Na Hey Hey (Goodbye) The Penguins: Earth Angel The Capris: There's a Moon Out Tonight The Duorees: You Belong To Me The Marcels: Blue Moon These are all 50'-early 60's oldies/goodies....all were very popular Just love watching all of your reactions, but especially to 50's and 60's music. It really was great music. simple lyrics, to the point and had a great dance beat...you show the joy of it in your faces. When we danced one or two of these Swing/Lindy/ Jitterbug dances we would take a sit down break or dance a couple of slow ( belly rubbing) dances. Either we had a boyfriend or a dance partner that we practiced with for hours to learn routines. You can't really free style this dancing with just anybody. Most of us didn't do the back rolls or jumps or under legs floor sliding. Those moves were saved for competitions. This type of dancing can be as fast as you see here or it can be slowed down for slower fast tempo songs. "Back in the day" we danced as couples, together.

1960/61 was the year of the tragedy song. Dickey Lee, Mark Demming, Ray Peterson, J. Frank Wilson and Thomas Wayne. Pure heartbreak songs.

@charleyfarley1547 Год назад

the writer of this song is Maurice Williams and he wrote "Stay" (Jackson Browne). Maurice Williams and the Zodiacs did the original and BEST version (of Stay)

The amazing thing about American Graffiti is that it came out in 1973, with the tagline: Where Were You In '62? It's hard to imagine making a nostalgia-based film about 2011, but the western world changed so much in the sixties, it was like revisiting an ancient past.
