I'm So Young (The Students) by Kayla Stockert

originally done by the Students in 1958, written by William H. "Prez" Tyus, Jr. This is by far, one of my favorite songs of all time. This is live in the studio.

[@richrejtmar466]

I'll bet the student hear this song and smile. Great young woman

[@johnfrancesconi5102]

Bring back those oldies and multi talented youth. Doo Wop forever.

[@fcolon187]

kayla is just what we need to show the youth what real music sounds like .

[@DoowopLover]

WOW....I'm an old doowopper from way back when. This young girl has one hell of a voice.

[@dalehood1846]

You should listen to "Kid Kyle" also. Heard him at oldies shows when he was 12 or 13, what a voice! He's grown now. Have a listen. All the best and may God bless.

I Was A Teenager in the 60s Great to See the Music Still lives on in the Youths❤

[@lorisommer2088]

I’ve listened to this song my whole life because of my Doo Woo loving Dad ❤️

[@jameslee3881]

Just why today's teens are not like that? Kayla you are great!

[@GM8101PHX]

This girl knocks the songs out of the park, my Lord she is beyond good! I love hearing her sing!

[@SamuelKeala-j7q]

Absolutely agree😂🎉🎉❤

Saw Kid Kyle at Benedum Center in Pittsburgh at oldies shows. Absolutely great. We need these young people to sing these songs and keep them alive. All the best and may God bless.

I am a 67 yr. old man and I grew up in Boston, Mass. I have been listening to Gospel and rhythm and blues since I was about 7. Back in the day I was called many names, including "n-lover" for listening to the Students, Wrens, Magnificents, ElDorados, Crows, Nutmegs Robins, Cadillacs etc, etc. The dee jays that I was raised with were Ken Malden, Symphony Sid and Bill Marlowe. Considered some of the best. Whites were not encouraged to listen to "negro music", let alone sing them in public. It was suggested that we listen to Doris Day,Pat Boone, Guy Mitchell, etc,It is so refreshing to hear this young lady sing her heart out. Keep em coming baby. Peace, Richie

[@jimmig8542]

WHAT A SAD, SAD STATE OF AFFAIRS. THIS IS SICKENING TO EVEN SAY, LET ALONE THINK THAT STUFF.

[@Jimfromearthoo7]

richard flamburis Richard I was born in Brooklyn. The Paramount, The Fox, The Albee. The valentines, the turbans,The g-clefs, The Diablo’s, the cadets, the clovers,Stevie wonder, the orioles, the moonglows, The heartbeats, the 4 deuces, etc. So I know what your saying. That was music.😎

[@chatman2a]

richard flamburis Boston was one of the most racist cities that I ever resided in. I am an American (black American) who was born in the Deep South in the early1950s; I attended college in Southern Cal in the early 1970s; then I went to grad school in Boston in the mid 1970s. During my years in Boston, I was chased by a mob of racists (while waiting for a train at Boston U), had a gun pointed at me near Fenway Park, and was assaulted by a group of racist thugs near the JFK Library. When I completed my grad degree in 1977, I left Boston as quickly as I could. Richard, I can fully appreciate your experience in Boston. During that time, the city was fraught with racism. I’ve lived in cities on the West Coast, the Midwest, & in the Deep South. Boston was far & away the most blatantly racist city that I lived in.

[@peterullmann8093]

lived in harlem sang with only black groups music just better

[@soupdee]

Richard guess we're about the same age now, i grew up in northeast jersey, passaic (home of The Shirelles) i was about 8yo when i first started listening to the radio stations at the end of the dial (black stations) thank god i did too, listened to Dr Jive (Tommy Smalls) Georgie Hudson, Jocko Henderson and you get the picture, So as a young boy on saturday mornings remember hearing The Personalities, The Laddins, The Cordovans and all of those you also mentioned. This girls version of "I'm So Young" is very good, this song seems to go on forever so many different versions of it out there and to think the original was done was such a young group from of all places Cincy, Ohio the guy that wrote the song who was just as young as the members of the group The Students, Prez Tyus what an incredible song and he wrote the other great Student songs My Vow To You and Everyday of the Week and of course That's How I Feel, amazing song writer at such a early age.

Qué hermosa voz

[@tintomara6209]

Her voice is perfect for this kind of material, being that idiomatic blend of innocence and yearning that so characterised much of doo wop music.

[@mysterytrax]

Great attention to detail Kayla.....you tore it up. You gave DooWop it's PROPS here.

[@doowopsoulster3141]

You absolutely killed this you left me crying thank you for bringing back memories of my high school years when I was with my ex

[@estelapanaifo8352]

ES HERMOSA VOZ

[@ihbarddx]

Nicely done. You forget what the song was about when old men sing it.

[@sandyreyes-z6q]

such a beautiful and talented singer her voice is amazing.

[@Geoffrey2410]

Amazing. I so love the older songs that are still alive because the kids find them!! I did when I was young and I guess they still have meaning. Sweet really. Rock and Roll Forever.

[@KIZERVONZINGER]

She has the perfect voice for this song! Well done!

[@rjb073]

She would have been an instant hit back in the 50's or early 60's.

[@hotdogkid1]

You hit this one out of the park. This was a 500 foot home run. This one will stand the test of time.

[@erikhora9321]

Great job l am a young generation doowop fan and a activist to keep the music alive l am writing a TV show that takes place in the catsills during the hotel era

[@gipseyrose1]

Beautiful . Please continue to keep OUR MUSIC alive .

[@rjb073]

Had she been around singing in the 50's and early 60's she would have set the world on fire with her voice. She was born to sing Doo Wop! Of course, today she is six years older and I have not heard her sing lately, but she has the voice of a Doo Wop angel in this recording.

[@johngiovine8792]

WOW, and she's only going to get better and better!

[@carminesemonella5423]

absolutely unbelievable, would love to hear her do At Last by Etta James

[@MrViejo67]

Kayla.....Your Version Of "I'm So Young" is FANTASTIC !!!!. You are the reason why classic Doo Wops will last forever !!! Please Consider The TV competition " The Sing-Off" on NBC... but remember, Stay In Your Genre (Doo Wops)!!!! That's how you will win !!!.

[@roccalumera1294]

Best teenage cover of this song I've heard.

[@victorlapides]

She's super. But listen to Kid Kyle and the Students "So Young," posted by the Tone Poets (get the right one), 2:35 minutes. He was like eleven years old and will blow you away. Guaranteed.

[@70CobraJet429]

Kayla, you leave me speechless! When you started singing I just froze and stared in total awe at the screen while you belted out a perfect rendition of a 50's classic, like it was 1958 again. I was just a toddler then, but I relived the fifties with my family at Saturday cruise nights in the early 90's, and you would have been a huge hit! As Bobby stated, you're perfect for this genre, and just what it needs to make a comeback.

[@TerryHarrisontbh]
