Paul was only 17 when he released this song. He's written more than 900 songs. He wrote Frank Sinatra's hit “My Way” and Tom Jones's “She's a Lady” He wrote Johnny Carson's theme song for the Tonight show & "Teddy," for Connie Francis. His portfolio is amazing.

[@MoMoMyPup10]

And I danced with my Mom at my wedding to "Times Of Your Life". Couldn't help but breakdown in the middle of it.

[@giuliogrifi7739]

For "My Way" only the words...the original song was a 1968 french song, sung by Claude Francois (french with italian mother).....title: "Comme D'Habitude".

[@kathyyore309]

I love how much I learn here! Thank you for sharing ❤️

I believe he wrote this song for his then girlfriend, Annette Funicello (the most famous Mouseketeer)

It was always such a great song…a timeless classic…and heck, if a lady can’t get into a song like that…she’s got no heart or soul! Perfect slow-dance tune! And Paul Anka is still around 🙂

[@johnbattles1002]

Legendary Paul Anka will be 81 in July of this year, and is still performing! Beginning in 1955, his career is one of amazing longevity!

[@elizabethgari4909]

I saw him a few years ago in concert. He went into the audience and took a grandma by the hand onto the stage and danced with her as he sang this song to her. He's a wonderful man. The whole audience sang it with him. He took selfies with the fans too.

[@randytorres8211]

Paul had 53 hits during his career. This song was released in 1959. His last Top 40 song was in 1983 which was a duet Peter Cetera, formerly from Chicago. Please react to Hold till the Morning Comes.

[@delorespetree3243]

Love the music back then it was so simple but good

[@michaeldavis5610]

Jr.Highschool dances, this was the song.Great memories.Thank you for this.

Went to see him in concert when I was in my early 20s. He came out into the audience. As he was returning to the stage I was in his path. I stepped to side to get out of his way & he gave me a kiss on the cheek. He wrote the song She’s A Lady, sung by Tom Jones.

Asia, BJ was right. Years ago dancing with your favorite gal…this song was the bomb. Very romantic in the long lost days of my life.

[@teri7398]

He's a well known songwriter too. He wrote. The lyrics for Frank Sinatra's "My Way". Another early hit He sang is "Puppy Love" which the Osmond Brother's coveted in the 1970's. Later I think in the 70's he had another song "The Times of Your Life". Or "Do You Remember The Times Of Your Life"

This is sooo old school, that the Beatles seemed like 'revolutionaries' with "I want to hold your hand, wooooo".

[@aaronstandingbear]

A sweet romantic song from way back. Another from the way back machine that is a number one romantic tune is 'Beautiful' by another Canadian poet, Gordon Lightfoot. Thats two from Canadians and a third from a sweet Canadian Goddess is Shaniah Twain doing 'From This Moment On'. Us Canuks are romantics at the core. Thats why we are so slow to anger, but we are passionate and so when we do get mad look the fuck out.

[@OronOfMontreal]

As he grew older, Paul Anka wrote what would become the signature song for Frank Sinatra: "My Way". But as a teenager in the 1950s, Anka was one of the first teen idols of Rock 'n Roll, when it was new and White folk were just starting to steal it from its Black creators. Paul Anka was born and raised in Ottawa, the capital city of Canada. In the mid to late 1980s, I performed in a few plays at the Ottawa Little Theatre, whose back side was on Paul Anka street - more of an alley, really.

[@lindapowers8592]

Too funny! Important love lessons from Paul and BJ in one segment; outstanding. And how could anyone not love this late fifties romantic classic and sing along with it, "Baa...bbby". Paul is Canadian, of Lebanese ancestry, and performed live for decades. Try "Diana " next. He wrote it as a teen about his pretty babysitter.

Yeah, Asia and BJ, Paul had all the ladies swooning back then❤ He had quite a few hits. Hey BJ, here's a song you can dedicate to your lady by Larry Graham...One in a Million You. Larry performed with Sly and the Family Stone and was founder of the group Grand Central Station. I think Asia will love his baritone voice🎵🎶 He's also the uncle of rapper Drake.

[@dannycasson1551]

My mom’s era..So I grew up listening to this wonderful music.

[@dougsusie2319]

Great one here guys. This was 1959 and he was only 18 here. Definitely a young crooner and he wrote this song. He was the youngest cat in the house here and pretty much could've had any young lady in the audience he wanted. If you pause this video a just the right moment when he's holding the girls hand and singing to the audience, check out the looks on the guys faces in the audience, it's very funny stuff. ☮️✌️💕👌

Me and the wife dance to this every time we hear it even thought it was recorded 8 years before I was born we had the DJ play this at our Daughters wedding we were the only ones slow dancing to this classic song (I was 44 and she was 40 at the time)

[@patticrichton1135]

This came out in 1959 when I was 12 years old. People before me have mentioned other songs that made him popular back then, but he continued on through the years and wrote a lot of songs for other artists. It ALWAYS cracks me up when young people say "you can tell it's old cos it's in black and white" Well, we didn't have color TV back then. As far as MOVIES go, there were movies made in COLOR as far back as the 1930s, so there! LOL!
