[@johnharsanyi8909]

grega1972 love it

[@davidbarnes153]

Damn straight!

[@grega1972]

Yes Arlene is the Original lead But the Real Chantels had a harmony that these girls could Not even think about duplicating ....just sayin

[@timgutierrez2211]

Indeed. What an incredible voice. I loved this since I was a young kid. Incredible/

[@mmg2218]

She's incredible

[@leoclarke8310]

She is the only one who can sing like this. Would love to hear someone on the Voice do this!!!!!!!

[@DorianLS]

Try the Barberettes version of Maybe on KZbin. It is very more emotionally packed. It will bring you to tears.

[@pticalarry8640]

john frusciante maybe

[@kennethpayne9694]

THIS IS PURE GOLD FOR ETERNITY FACT

[@judywagnerbechtold2929]

One of the best songs ever. Best slow dance. Loved the Chantels.

[@johnbrennan3779]

Could not wait till the very end of the dance, LOL, They played this and hold me, thrill me, kiss me and it was a rare chance to get close to a girl, lol.

[@doowoprichie]

exactly and a great song to sing acappella

[@tomcollins3137]

I CAN HEAR HER CLEARLY ; ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE OCEAN ATLANTIC. FROM: COOLAVOOHIG, COUNTY CORK, REPUBLIC of Ireland 🇮🇪. Spectacular!!!.

[@EugeneToth]

What a magical match... the Lou Reed band added that powerful missing bottom end. This was how this song was meant to be.

[@darkfeather6857]

She was beautiful, too, beautiful eyes and hair.

[@DISCODAN1]

This was always one of my favorite 50's songs! There is another rare clip of the original Chantels together on stage from about 2006. She was still belting it out then as well. I love Arlene Smith's voice! These songs remind my of my mom who was always playing her generation's music when we were kids, so I have a real fondness for the early days of Rock n Roll. Beautiful song!

[@the30secondpunny17]

Why RIP?

[@DISCODAN1]

@@the30secondpunny17 oh she's still with us? I know that I read that she had passed! If she is still with us I am so happy to hear it!

[@bobleming5673]

I was there, a great night. Who would ever think I'd see Robert Quine play back up for The Chantels?

[@tommy34442]

She is awesome

[@seldenkid48]

Arlene!! Blessed with that Voice. God Bless You!!

[@kennethpayne9694]

the sad truth is when this song came out these BEAUTIFUL QUEENS had to enter the building through the back door and once they touched peoples souls they were ushered out the back door racism is so ugly and disgusting

[@clivenaicker9010]

Really!!! no!!! sad...

[@michaelcasino4380]

I remember growing up with my cousins and they would make me dance with them to Maybe. It’s not like it used to be.

[@JM-yi4vl]

[@Ed-jv3xu]

To infinity !

[@user-jd1wp5pq3q]

Some 26 years from original recording but, sounds just as good as she (Arelene Smith ) did when she was a 14 year old.

[@camelmovingstorage1978]

I saw her at the bottom line tiny little place lower Manhattan in the village in the 70s voice of an angel a voice That took you out of your seat and took you on a ride

[@gladysrodgers4015]

ARTISTS!

[@mikemoscato385]

My mom n dads song.......

[@grega1972]

ARLENE you are so awsome but she needs the original Chantels cuz the backround vocals cannot be dupped , the original girls still sound like Angels

[@gladysrodgers4015]

I loved the chantels practicing all the time singing it to slow talk about sing though

[@jeffcory1056]

Chantels are wonderful but there is absolutely no Lou Reed to be found anywhere in this video

[@the30secondpunny17]

It was his special.

[@mikegeo76]

Lou Reed's musicians from the Capitol Theatre concert are playing: Quine, Saunders, Ferraro, Wood.

[@michaelmayer8193]

good ass fuck song

[@TartempionLampion]

Why does it say Lou Reed?

[@davidcavaliere3954]

TartempionLampion this was a concert where Lou Reed also performed. I was a young man of about 19. We were so excited to see Lou Reed perform.

[@moonrayz4]

When in tune she was the best, but her going out of tune makes it bittersweet given the high standards she previously set.

[@martyrobinson4474]

I’ve heard her in years since this performance… I think she was having vocal problems on this night. There are a couple times when she seems distressed in her voice, I think it’s amazing she sounded as good as she did. I think something else was going on with her voice that night.

[@acyutanandadas1326]

@@martyrobinson4474 Even when she's off she's ON

[@vicstaniec9615]

even now she was starting to lose it. that's why she was replaced by ami ortiz.

[@doowoplvr]

If it wasn't for the great Arlene Smith, who by the way wrote their first single, "He's Gone" there would be no group period.....and get your story straight the girls had a big disagreement, she went out on her own.....the rest of the girls rode on her coattails for years with HER music....while Ami Ortiz is a fairly good singer, she has since retired from the group and they brought in the daughter of one of the originals....she isn't and never will match the vocals of the great Arlene Smith, the pride of The Bronx, NY

[@kalilsantos1188]

It seems she's out of tune

[@jjsteel43]

no she's not

[@Ccrossjesuswept75]

Nice
