I love Petula. I saw her on Broadway with David and Shaun Cassidy in Blood Brothers. She was great. I always loved her. Don't Sleep In The Subway is my favorite

@Jeff_Lichtman Год назад

Petula Clark started her career during World War II at the age of nine. She was attending a BBC broadcast with her father, but the show was interrupted by an air raid. The producer asked if someone could perform to calm the audience, and she volunteered to sing Mighty Lak a Rose. They asked her to sing it again when the show came back on the air. She went on to perform about 500 times on BBC radio in shows meant for the troops. She's still alive today at the age of 90.

Magnificent vocals and a charming delivery. Let’s have a word for the composer; Britain’s Bacharach, Tony Hatch.

@darrenplumpton3551 Год назад

Petula Clark singing her Anthem. Petula's vocals on Downtown are beyond phenomenal,beyound brilliant and beyound superlative. As crystal clear as mountain water and as pure as real Diamonds Petula records the best song written by Tony Hatch. When Tony first played Downtown to Petula he had only written the music and as he played the piano for Petula she went and put the kettle on. On hearing the opening notes she was estastic and said to Tony "if you can write some lyrics as good as that music I will record it. He did and she did. Downtown is a song that will never lose its appeal and is forever a Golden Great. Petula Clark is THE BEST the best.

As a high schooler/college student, I had a massive crush on Petula Clark. She was a consummate professional. As a youngster, she performed in the Underground during the Battle of Britain. Not many singers have that kind of resume.

@tombidlack5472 Год назад

This was my favorite as a young child in the 60s! My mom said I sang it every time it cam on the AM radio.

@lewiscleale5236 10 месяцев назад

I spent 2 years on the road with Petula as her Joe Gillis in Sunset Boulevard here in the US. She sold out wherever we went. We worked hard for sure, but had a great time. I bought my home with the money I made with my time with her. I refer to it as the house Petula Clark built. We danced, we kissed, we laughed and then she'd kill me. What a way to make a living.

@christopheryochum3602 Год назад

I like "Don't Sleep on the Subway" even more! :)

@KevinRCarr Год назад

This song is one of those that stands out in my memory of childhood. I was very young, 6-7, when this song was popular on the radio. As a self-taught reader, I was fascinated with words, and with the lyrics of songs that I heard more than a handful of times. I had great difficulty then, reconciling this magical place called "Downtown" that she was singing about with what I knew of "downtown" in the village of about 800-900 people in the midst of farms and forests where we lived. A couple of years later when we moved to the nearby "small city" of about 10,000 people, I thought I understood what she meant in the song. Of course, once I was about 10 or so I figured out that there were very large cities that actually had the "Downtowns" that she sang of, and that my earlier ideas about it had been childish. Great song. Thanks for playing it and bringing back the memories.

@craigdoriety9798 Год назад

Same here. I remember seeing her perform this live on one of the American variety shows. May have been Dean Martin. Brings back warm memories of days gone by.

@jeffcarpenter5147 Год назад

Pet Clark has one of the best vocal ranges in the business.

@scottcurrie8002 Год назад

This song is nostalgic for me as well. I was a teenager when this song was released and it was ever-present on the radio. It helped define my teenage experience. I loved your reaction here. Very honest. Your words explain what the artist (here Patulia Clark) is doing technically. Your face tranparently Broadcasts how you feel about the performance. This performance made your smile bright and your face beam because you felt warmly nostalgic and happy. It was fun to watch and it made me feel the same way.

@BeliaR_666 Год назад

I´m 48 now, so this song isn´t really from my time. But this song is so great, if i´m sad it makes me feel better, if i´m in normal or happy mood it makes me feel happier. And i think you feel like me listening tio this song. I think your Emotions in your Face shows that.

Petula, Dusty and Lulu were amazing. Aside from the brilliant vocal performances, I'm into music production and the arrangements and production leaves all the modern computerized and auto-tuned songs for dead.

I remember as a young boy, must have been early 1960's, listening to this song over the audio system in our local Ben Franklin's Five and Dime store (yes, we had radio and speakers back then). It caught my attention even then, and I still think this is a great song. Timeless!

@ElliotNesterman Год назад

This was her biggest hit this side of the pond, of course. But my favorite of hers is probably "Don't Sleep in the Subway." Most Americans being only monolingual, her French recordings never played here. Of those I'm very partial to her recording of Gainsbourg's "La Gadoue." Also, her vowels are strongly RP, which you'd expect from an English singer of her generation. You can hear it especially in her "o"s, as you note. Her diphthong is "eh-oo," rather than today's more usual "uh-oo."

@alpine1600s Год назад

Holy crap, I almost forgot about the Subway!👍

@roli9091 Год назад

I also love "Subway", and she had many more great songs. Check out "Cut Copy Me" from 2012, such a brillant piece of sophisticated contemporary pop done by a than already 80 years old icon.

@lawrencewestby9229 Год назад

Of course, most Americans probably didn't realize what the term subway referred to in Britain.

@davie12 Год назад

I think as a kid she was sent to the Rank Charm School, which developed her then almost RP pronunciation, required at the time for the BBC or films, unless you were playing a working class character. Living in French speaking countries and speaking French a lot of the time, also working in Canada, USA, Australia and New Zealand, among many others, softened the RP. Interestingly, in my opinion as a lifelong fan, her latest album "Vi d'Ici", is her best album ever. She's a genius and there is NOTHING and NO STYLE of music she can't sing

@calebclunie4001 Год назад

The production of the era, is a big contributor in this song, with, clearly a big space, with that echo. This, and "I Know A Place", also by Petula Clark, are great examples. See, the Mike Jittlov video. I've purchased 2 of her albums, in the last half a year. Stellar.

@mwflanagan1 Год назад

Happy to have subscribed just yesterday. I’ve seen several of the family series she made following the war, I remember hearing this on the radio when I was a kid and the song was new, and one of my favorite movies with her is Finnegan’s Rainbow, with Tommy Steele and Fred Astaire. Thanks for reviewing this one, Beth.

@davidkellymitchell4747 Год назад

I remember when that was a brand new record. Good music is like fine wine, it keeps getting better with age.

@peterdoe2617 Год назад

Born in 1960, it's one of those songs I "grew up with". Like I learned to operate my parents dics player by the age of maybe 4. And would listen to Marty Robbin's "El Paso". (Pls try to picture a german 4yr old to sing that ;-) As a fan of rock music: I do have a double CD with songs of Sandie Shaw. And still love 16 tons (much covered. Sometimes very well done). As for "classic hard rock": I think you haven't found "The Warning", yet. "The future of hard rock" or (in a joke about them): "Know, what they can't do? Writing bad songs!" They are amazing!

Gotta shine a light on Tony Hatch, writer & producer of this and many other songs - I Know A Place, A Sign Of The Times, My Love, Don't Sleep In The Subway etc - during Petula's mid-'60s run of hits.

@jbear3562 Год назад

In 1967 when I first heard this song on the radio I was 13 year old boy and I thought I was hearing the voice of an angel. In the more than 5 decades since i have come to realize that I really was listening to the voice of an angel. Thanks for sharing this clip.

@BartdeBoisblanc Год назад

It's really remarkable how a song decades ago allows you to recall where you were and almost specific thoughts. This shows how music can help people who have lost some language facility to recover words from songs in their long term memory.

@nrsvlda70 Год назад

Oh.. you have NO idea how popular this song was when it first came out. I was 14…. From a very small rural community, and it made all of us ‘girls’ believe we might someday be able to be somewhere in a real ‘downtown’!! Thank-you for a wonderful trip down memory lane!!

@FeaturingRob Год назад

I think in the late 1990s, I went to see her perform in the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical 'Sunset Boulevard' playing Norma Desmond. The show was on tour and had come to my hometown of Phoenix, Arizona where I was living at the time. She was magnetic on stage, and very nice off stage as I got her to autograph the Playbill. I had never heard of her or heard her voice before that night...and at intermission, I bought a CD of her most recent album at the time which had versions of the big songs her character sang in the show "With One Look" and "As If We Never Said Goodbye". It wasn't until RU-vid came along that even heard her version of "Downtown"...the only version I had ever heard was Nancy Lamott, a New York cabaret artist who released a few albums, but passed away very young. I love this version of one of her signature songs.

@EconAdviser Год назад

She had a big string of hits and fans at the time were stunned how "old" she was. Reference to Bosa Nova was so big at the time (Girl From Ipanema, Brazil 66, etc.). Teens then were had so few opportunities besides just "hanging out" together on street corners, so going downtown ("cruising" the streets downtown as later glorified in movies about the early 1960s in "American Grafitti" movie nostalgia). U.S. mainstream TV loved to have her as guests because she wasn't threatening like the long-haired Mods and Rockers long-haired Brit bands.

@ThomasTakoda Год назад

FYI - This song was recorded in only three takes, with the second take ultimately being chosen for the completed track. Yes, she was that good. One of the session players on the track was Jimmy Page. Petula Clark had started in the entertainment industry many years before meeting Tony Hatch, though. She was something of an old hand by the time he came along. First coming to the attention of the British public as a child star on radio during the Second World War, by the early 1960s Petula Clark was recording in French, German and Italian, as well as English, and had a UK Number One record to her name already, with “Sailor”, in 1961. Starting with “Downtown”, Petula Clark had 15 consecutive Top 40 singles in the Billboard charts. She was also popular in the UK and across Europe thanks to her ability to speak and sing in other languages. Unlike today’s music which is all processed with added effects, it’s doubtful save a few handful, could ever do a song in only three takes.

@daverigby23 Год назад

Quick story. I'm English living in France since 2006. About 12 years ago I was listening to a woman being interviewed on French radio. After a minute or two I realised it was an Englishwoman, who was speaking perfect french. Then I thought ' that's Petula Clark ' and I was right. She's married a Swiss guy in the 60s, and lives in Switerland. Perfect diction in both languages and a pretty lady too ( those cheek bones ) Keep up the good work, you're cute yourself x

Actually Claude is French. He was working for Disques Vogue in Paris when she was there seeing the boss man... but yes, they live in Switzerland since the late 60s.

@binglamb2176 Год назад

There are some songs that define time and place . This is definitely one of those for me. I instantly visualize me as a young teen in the 60s taking the bus downtown in my Canadian city for an early evening movie with this song playing in my head (before the era of Walkmans and mobile phones).

@ToeTag1968 Год назад

A simpler time with clear, simple voices. Petula is an icon! Beth, I'm super surprised you haven't reacted to any Alison Moyet yet. She half of Yazoo!, a collab with Depeche Mode's Vince Clarke. Her voice is husky and amazing. On the Yazoo! I side I'd recommend "Don't Go." On her solo side, "It Won't Be Long." She's from Essex and would probably be up for an interview if you still do those with artists. :) Take care!

@obbekjaer Год назад

This takes me back to my childhood in the 80s but also to the 2000s when I, my gf at the time and a female friend used to do Singstar battles. I tried singing Elvis - Suspicious Minds but never hit the tones right. For some reason I always beat both of them on Downtown. I sang it perfectly in tune. As a male this irritated me at first but with my self irony intact, I just rolled with it and we had a lot of laughs about it :)

@billmorris8358 Год назад

In 1964 when this was released, I was I was just 7 years old. Pet Clarke and this song was everywhere! Every radio station played it, every tv show featured it. The sound of her voice, her enunciation of every word, and even syllables of the lyrics were just gorgeous. So even at 7 l had a monumental crush on her. Also didn’t help that even then l thought she was drop dead gorgeous!

Top tip Beth. When you have five mins to spare, have a wee look at Petula singing this song LIVE on The Dean Martin Show (early-mid 60’s). You might enjoy it. She also looks stunning. 🥰

Unlike Dusty Springfield who had a strong R&B feel, Petula Clark was very 'European' - a bit of a chanteuse with a strong French audience. She sang in French regularly and made records for the French market as well as the UK. She started as a child star in films and was a staple of British light entertainment tv and radio in the 1960s

A few years ago one of the credit card companies used this song to show women shopping to feel better. It was sung in a slightly different "style" (not sure how to describe it. Niki Harris (one of Madonna's back up singers both stared in the commercial and sang the song. You can hear her gospel roots kick it at times. Niki and Donna Delory still sing together, harmonize like fiends and are so close as friends their babies were born a day apart. They have re-recorded "Rain" that is mostly their harmonies. I love how they have transitioned their careers since touring with Madonna. 💜

Greetings from Nashville. These are fun! Subscribed. With respect to British Invasion artists, how about Colin Blunstone of The Zombies. There's the usual suspects, 'She's Not There' and 'Time of the Season' . Then, there is the amazing album Odessey (sic) and Oracle (where 'Time of the Season' resides). Yes, when their friend Terry Quirk designed the lp cover, he misspelled Odyssey.

It must be said that "Downtown" is just a really great song. It's catchy, singable and complex, all at the same time. And, it paints a picture. Of course, Pet Clark really delivered on this. It must also be said that, among the her many YT vids, it's relatively rare for her to be seen lip-synching', as in this video. She is shown singing live most of the time, for which, I give her kudos.
