I had heard a few songs but really discovered the genius that is Bobby Darin 4 nights back and since then, I can't get enough. I'm a massive Elvis fan and was remembering him Aug 16th. On a phone call my sis mentioned a friend at work liking Bobby, I recalled Elvis and Bobby meeting so was searching for the pictures and came across If I were a Carpenter. I was reduced to tears. I played it over and over again thinking it was the best recording of a song I had ever heard. Since then I'm re-working all my rules, he's tearing up everything I know. I'm so glad to have met Bobby Darin albeit in precious clips like this. I haven't been able to stop smiling at the sheer joy from watching and hearing this force of talent. He is now simply a part of each day. He provides a masterclass with each genre he sings, swing, smooth, country, rock n roll, blues, soul, folk, he plays instruments and then he dances and boy can he dance, then there's comedy and impressions and somehow fitted in acting and by all accounts, a truly decent human being too. And if I can add, is very sexy throughout. Midnight Special is probably the single best all round performance I've seen. Midnight has become Bobby time. I'm not sleeping until I've heard the songs, watched the performances, smiled with him because he has a look as if he's singing just to you. I was 3 when he died.

He’s the greatest of all time for my money. He could do everything, and he did it all so brilliantly. Love my Bobby.

His best is a debate....A SIMPLE SONG OF FREEDOM, or LONG LINE RIDER......those were his, and his alone. He sang, he danced, he wrote, he arranged, he acted(pretty well) His talent was FAR FAR, FAR under-appreciated for most of his time - and continues to this day.

I am 68 years of age, and have loved Mr D since the late 50's when Australia somehow, aired shows with Bobby performing..with his superb Two Step at the end of Look Out Old Mackey Is Back!! He dropped that routine from his performance...I don't know why...Others have praised him here..far better than I can express!! I have what is purported to be his final show, on DVD...and,after playing Splish Splash, he gets up..thanks the audience...and leaves the stage, for the final time. If you look closely at the expression in his eyes, you can see him..not soaking the pleasure up at their marvelous response..but the knowing look that he will never experience this moment, again. Bloody hell I miss you Bobby!! I know exactly where I was when I heard the news on the radio....I cried, Bobby D...I cry still. Catch him on an LP singing with Johnny Mercer, if you can..Special!!

Marilyn Stevenson, well said! I'm about the same age as you now, and I have loved Bobby forever! I did not know until after he passed, that he had an incredibly high IQ and was part of Mensa organization for "High IQ intellectuals" and that he could play any instrument and as Sammy Davis Jr. said once that "Bobby Darin has a black man's soul and rhythm in "a white man's body"..so true he had this natural rhythm anyone could see. Multi dimensionally talented, in singing, writing songs, playing many instruments, dancing and his acting was also incredible. Watch the movie "Pressure point" with Darin and Sidney Poiter. Bobby plays a very sick twisted "Nazi sympathizer and sociopath" in prison, where Sidney is the psychiatrist and tries to help him and figure out how he came to be such a messed up man. They go back over his childhood and it was horrible, and that is where Darin does his incredible acting chops!

Quel artiste !!!!!!!!!! 👍👍👍👍C'était. À défaut d'une vie longue et paisible , il a consacré le relativement peu de temps qu'il avait et savait à vivre à la musique. Sur ce titre il démontre tout son talent de chanteur et de showmen qui était incroyable. Chapeau et salut l'artiste au paradis des hommes bon.

Творчество Бобби Дэрин дорогого стоит. Гармонично все в нем. Большой талант с большим сердцем. Его слушать и смотреть - одно удовольствие. Как жаль, что так рано покинул этот мир.😢😢😢 Любим, помним.. ❤❤❤

Quel talent et quel dommage qu'un tel artiste est disparu si brièvement. Toute sa vie qu'il savait courte due à sa maladie, il se consacra à la musique. Sur ce titre il démontre tout son talent de chanteur et de showmen. Avec un ❤️énorme. Il se donne à fond pour son public. Chapeau l'artiste et que ton âme reste à jamais éternel. Salut Mr bobby Darin

Pure talent right there! Saw Bobby at The Regal, Edmonton, c1959. He was amazing then and on this song he is really giving it his all. Sadly not long before he died, December 20 1973. :-(

Not "just" one of the best crooners ever, but a versatile, all rounded artist and performer. He could sing just every genre of American music of his era with the same, perfect results 😍 Totally underrated

My mom said Bobby was a genius & could play many instruments. Now I know what she meant. Bobby was exceptionally talented; no one comes near his level even today. His videos show how he fully loved life & performing! What an awesome man & a true legend 😊😊😊
