Its not obvious, but what Bobby Darin did starting in about 1966, was ballsy. Total transformation in his style. He probably pissed off his older mainstream fans with this kind of material. But he really clearly did not care and I admire the hell out of that.

A local DJ friend took me out to the Flamingo Hotel to Bobby's dressing room and introduced us.Bobby went to LA and recorded 18 Yellow Roses. When he came back he came to where my band played, Twin Lakes Lodge. He sang this song that night, the first time it was played publicly. He was the nicest person you would ever hope to meet. He was like an old friend. He is missed as a performer and a great person.

I don't care for any of today's music. I saw on utube that he did a rap song so I had to listen to it. It was way before all the current rap artists. "Me and Mr. Horner Standing on the Corner". Guess what I have listened to this one more than a couple of times.

It's incredible. His "People hear what they see" idea really worked. Bobby was booed off stage when he first sang his protest songs, wearing jeans + a mustache! As Bob Darin. They wanted their old Mack-the-knife-Bobby back! He didn't know what to do, so he combined it. Put on his tux again, sang a few of his old songs + some of his new material. These songs meant a lot to him. And suddenly the audience loved the protest songs,too! It was basically the same set list, he just looked different.
@The22on3 жыл бұрын
Good explanation! I heard the audience booed him off the stage when he changed from his big band style to the protest style. I didn't know Las Vegas audiences accepted him when he put on a tux. By the way, he looks and sounds super laid back in this video. I guess he was so sick. He didn't have the energy. But that worked for this song. The straight ahead style is better than the brassy style of his earlier days.

Bobby Darin is truly one of our musical icons and his really caring deep side I don't think showed much on the performance circuit. I don't think I heard this song until I saw the movie beyond the Sea. And the dramatization of this song will never stop moving my emotions. And as others have said it is still very relevant today. Tragic that he had to have and go through the rheumatic fever -a deadly disease. My mother had it and a good friend of mine her mother had it. pm destroys the heart valves, and my mother literally died of a broken ❤️ figuratively and literally when they aorta broke as well and my friend's mother died also from the plastic replacement valves she obtained through surgery and they finally wore through. Bobby's music will be remembered forever and I hope his soul is soaring to greater heights and maybe he'll come back and reincarnate and bring help and energy to get us through this mess we r in right now!

Hey, there, mister black man, can you hear me? I don't want your diamonds or your game I just want to be someone known to you as me And I will bet my life you want the same. Come and sing a simple song of freedom Sing it like you've never sung before Let it fill the air Tell the people everywhere We, the people here, don't want a war. Seven hundred million are ya list'nin'? Most of what you read is made of lies But, speakin' one to one ain't it everybody's sun To wake to in the mornin' when we rise? Come and sing a simple song of freedom Sing it like you've never sung before Let it fill the air Tell the people everywhere We, the people here, don't want a war. Brother Solzhenitsyn, are you busy? If not, won't you drop this friend a line Tell me if the man who is plowin' up your land Has got the war machine upon his mind? Come and sing a simple song of freedom Sing it like you've never sung before Let it fill the air Tell the people everywhere We, the people here, don't want a war. Now, no doubt some folks enjoy doin' battle Like presidents, prime ministers and kings So, let's all build them shelves Where they can fight among themselves Leave the people be who love to sing. Come and sing a simple song of freedom Sing it like you've never sung before Let it fill the air Tell the people everywhere We, the people here, don't want a war. I say … let it fill the air … Tellin' people everywhere … We, the people here, don't want a war. play.google.com/music/preview/Tqxf63x6n5kfzl4xpmtk3vgoc7e?lyrics=1&pcampaignid=kp-lyrics&u=0#

Dit is gewoonweg een zeer mooi en bijzonder nummer en zal, dat moge duidelijk zijn, altijd actuele waarde blijven hebben.

I used to try and hide the am radio from the kitchen under my pillow when songs like this were on the charts. I always got caught, LOL.

(Canadian here) On Remembrance Day (Veterans Day in USA), my wife & I were listening to a special satellite radio music program from San Diego. 4 hours of ‘60s music honoring the Veterans, but I didn’t hear this song. As Mr Dave Harper commented here a few years ago, it’s as relevant today as it was initially recorded. Hmmm. I wonder what would happen if someone updated the names to be more current and re-recorded it?

This song is appropriate today as it was when he first wrote/sang it. Love what it has to say...very honest and straightforward. More people in government and leadership should listen carefully to the words.....

Absolutely. There is more happening ‘out there’ than the news tells us. We have to bELIEVE that things ARE improving. The Universe will not let us suffer this time around. Mother Earth WILL survive also.

Gary Watson Yes.. The Oneness IS happening. When more of us come together & accept one another, as The Ascended Masters,do, we will really move into Higher Dimensions. And that means no judgements, no attachments, no confrontations. All that is related to inner fears. We are only here on this, our Mother Earth Plane, for a short time, in each life-time, and the better we can be as humans, the more quickly we will evolve. The Universe is totally with us. So keep up the great work, friend, pass on the Love & Light to all whom you meet in your daily comings & goings. If we can have an open Heart daily, this will be as Magic and it will encourage others. If those around me complain, I usually say, Be Grateful for the moment (this is all that we have). And those in the western world have plenty- althou', too much is often not the best. Bobby D. was, as I see it, A Light Worker. We all plan our time b/f being born & know how long we’ll be here, as well as our assignments. I knew at 7 years of age, my direction. I was in the play yard of my junior school, and said to myself, I wanted to teach. I really loved children so much. That had to have been from past life influences, I’d say.. LOL. Keep up the GREAT work. We WILL, we ARE improving. Don’t watch too much news :).Namaste.

I think a lot of the regular people he was singing to need to hear the message too. Seems a lot of people hate messages of peace more than they hate conflict.
