[@AD50697]

The amazing thing about this song/performance is that it sounds as if there is a full scale instrumental section playing behind the vocals... but there isn't. There is extremely minimal instrumentation, as the full body of sound is being produced by the four voices. Was never a doo wop fan til I heard this... it is an amazing sound. I heard Dion DiMucci in an interview say that they could not afford musical instruments, so each voice was tasked with sounding like one while they sang on street corners... which is what rap artists did thirty years later. This is a great song, great harmonizing, great singing by the Belmonts and an exhilarating voice in Dion.

[@victoriacunningham5029]

I met Dion way back when I was a kid, but had a lot of his records because of my mom. I have an autograph of this record by him from that day. Love his voice, and still listen to my "Oldies" often. They don't make music like this anymore.

Donald Hall Copy that!

[@fluffy1931]

Donald Hall lol, 'greatest era' in american music also missed the black musicians. And lets not forget the 'payola' scandals that clearly illustrated of where the money went and why records sold. In testimony before a US House subcommittee 'extensive investigation' into Payola 1959-60' -Clark testified that the only reason he had gotten involved with those record businesses were for the tax advantages. He admitted a $125 investment in Jamie records returned a profit of $11,900 and of the 163 songs he had rights to, 143 were given to him. American Bandstand did not have black artist on the show prior to 1960'. In fact, the first black artist to appear was Chubby Checker whose label (Cameo-Parkway) Clark had a stake in as well. Similar to the account of “Sixteen Candles,” Clark played “The Twist” week after week, helping it to soar on the charts, all the time receiving kickbacks from the label.hav a nice day.

[@MrStillwind]

fluffy1931 It wasn't a perfect world then and its not now. It was the birth of R&R and anybody would be crazy to not mention the black artists. They were great and made a major contribution to R&R. Fats domino, Jackie, Wilson, Sam Cook just to name a few. It was also a time of innocents where we dance in the school gyms, and anywhere else, where we drove our parents crazy. That's what I'm talking about. Peace.

I remember this song - it got me into trouble !!!! Between my 7th. to 8th grade, about '57-'58, from elementary school to junior high I spent much of the summer,every Friday night, learnig how to dance on the front porch of a neighbor's home. The girl across the street taught me us how to dance. It was fun.... I was really prepared at the first "sock hop' in junior high. It was called a sock hop because we had to take off our shoes before entering the gym. I was dancing the newest step when a teacher, Mr. Pitts, grabbed me on the shoulder and said: "BOY - YOUR OTTA HERE !!!!!' He kicked me out of the gym, accusing me of doing the "Dirty Bop". That is when you move your feet and body at the same time - it was later called the "Twist" and became popular. Well, I received a lot of attention and over a dozen class mates followed me out of the gym wanting to learn this new dance. Looking back, it was an age of innocence and simplicity, which may never return.

You nailed it ! Back when you needed real talent.

[@robertstorey7476]

What a wonderful pop song and a very charismatic performance. The audience and the group are having a whole load of fun. Dion really was and still is a great star.

This came out when I was 9 years old, and fell in love with Dion ever since. I learned this song"s lyrics in less than a half hour I played it over and over again!

Words cannot capture how great Dion and the Belmonts are in this incomparable appearance. They capture the zeitgeist of that moment so perfectly! Dion was the man!

Brilliant! Takes me back somewhat.

Until watching this video at least 50 times in the past month.. my favorite Doo Wop songs WERE.. Blue Moon by the Marcels and Little Darling by The Diamonds.. Not anymore.. this song is just perfection.. the harmony along with the Bass vocals plus Dion's charisma are just incredible.. I would have loved to have been 17 through about 30 years old back in the late 50's early 60's.. the Music/Clothes/Hairstyles and Cars make this the best time to be young and alive!!

[@canadianeastcoaster5142]

People seem more genuine and innocent back then, a sense of community. Lets bring it back. I know some cities its still going. But certainly not all. Cheers

Oh yeah them boys was smooth

[@rob1tnt]

Doo Wop and rockabilly where my first true passion in music, Im betting i was the only 10 year old in the 90's with nothing but 50's tapes in my walkman haha I still collect, play and hold this stuff very close to my heart. IMO its an era of music thats too often glossed over and spoken of more as a novelty. To me its some of the most important music there is, its a part of history, its the birth of everything we have now.

[@Rasmorak]

Man, Dion's voice is just so good. Something about how sharp and crisp it is I think.

[@kaylathomas6467]

Jester it's freaking amazing

[@bluephalanx]

you should thank carlo,dion adopted his singing style from carlo

[@edfulginiti8798]

How great was our music back then!?!? Dear God...fantastic!!!!

[@arnoldblashak988]

Dion was always cool had a lot of great songs in the 50s and 60s

[@arnoldblashak988]

Doo-wop at its finest

[@timhoovermusicman]

He's still making music... Put out a great album in 2020

[@RG-5834]

Can you imagine growing up in the mid to late Fifties!!! Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, JP “the Big Bopper” Richardson, Dion & the Belmonts, amongst many others! So incredibly sad what happened early Monday morning, 3rd February 1959 😢💔.
