MY WIFE'S HEART SKIPPED A BEAT!!! THE DUPREES - YOU BELONG TO ME (REACTION)

[@dianalee8967]

That was back in my time I'm 89 years old and that's one of my favorite songs. The lead singer is Mike Kelly of course he's passed on well I shouldn't say of course cuz I'm still here. But I always thought he was so cute I always had a crush on him and I like to see him anytime and I still think he's cute LOL they had others that took his place after that but it never was the same he was from the 60s to the 70s..😍😍🤩

[@C-Aye-Toldyaso]

I heard it was Joey Vann on the lead

[@M_ondo]

This is definitely one of the greatest songs ever recorded. Mike had such a beautiful voice and also all the singers plus the musicians that made this masterpiece happen!!

[@tombialoglow549]

Mike Kelly was just "lip-singing" to this beautiful song. The voice you are listening to was the late Joey Canzano also known as Joey Vann. He along with Joe Santollo, John Salvato, Mike Arnone and myself Tom Bialoglow were The Founding Members and "Original" Duprees.

[@stevewasham5582]

Yes it is Joey Van singing. Mike Kelly was lip synching to the song.

[@jennhen2675]

My Mom had a beautiful voice. She was always singing these songs. Great memories for me.

[@maryanderson2759]

I remember my mom singing this too. I was maybe 5 and telling her that she should go to Hollywood.

[@autumnamber6849]

I do not know if I could sound as good as your mom, but I sure do love singing my oldies. Glad these are sweet memories for you. You will always have that.

[@catherinebida2531]

Your husband is so romantic, and not afraid to show it. You are so fortunate! So is he!

[@phillipcooper8073]

Jo Stafford sings this song beautifully, check her version out. But I also like this version.

[@ProfessorSnape22]

I love her version better

[@deborahgarard5350]

I also think her version is the best.

[@tarotinthekichen1831]

I also like patsy clines version

[@craigdixon4113]

Joni James does it too.

[@jessicamahoney4610]

Is that the version they use on the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel? It really is beautiful.

[@jjnyc4610]

You have to check out the Duprees “Have you Heard” and “My own true Love” so beautiful!!

[@americanaforever6725]

The Duprees with Joey Vann on lead had an amazing sound

[@Marian92672]

MIKE KELLY

[@lonestarbug]

New Jersey great harmonies. “Have You Heard?”

[@garyvandecar2580]

Mike Kelly is on lead.

[@M_ondo]

A superb beautiful song, timeless , one of the greatest doowop songs ever. The lead singer has such a great voice , shout out to all the singers and musicians.🎉

[@mamb70]

Great Doowop group. One of the greatest doowop songs. Fantastic voice. Have you heard is amazing also. THEN YOU CAN TELL ME GOODBYE by the Casinos 1967 is similar. Fabulous song!

[@oldermusiclover]

oh that song is soo pretty

[@denniswatson5066]

I was fortunate enough to be around and hear these songs as the came out. Was a great time to be around.

[@lukeayuso4075]

I love this song so much and I love this husband and wife team they are just awesome love to see people in love like this 🙏👍👏♥️♥️♥️

[@AnitaLife27]

Yes! One of the most beautiful romantic songs of all time and a great version by the mighty Duprees. So glad you’re listening to this stuff. This is definitely a show stopper! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Happy New Year!!!🎆🎊

[@TinaFahy-jx4om]

Sure brings me back. I'm 74 and love to reminisce. Love your reaction to these oldies.

[@clay1883]

Give the Duprees song "My Own True Love." You'll love it!

[@joevoshalike7114]

I still say you need to hear Jerry Butler, Your precious love

[@franciscocaldas854]

My parents would dance to this when it came on the radio and I would sit and stare. What beautiful memories.

[@user1952-e4g]

Beautiful reaction, you two are so much fun and a great role models for couples (who wish to stay married!) Nice move, Shawn, grabbing Mel's hand! One of the best songs from the do wop era. "Have You Heard" is their other big hit- fabulous similar vocal harmonies. You would also like "Remember Then", the Earls. (Do-wop also.)

[@teresasaponara943]

I love the fact that the younger generation can appreciate the oldies so cutos to you ❤

[@llkid6760]

These songs speak to anyone in love or even those who remember when. I'm 75 and still dance to these songs with my beloved husband of 54 years. True love never dies. ❤❤❤ Blessings.

[@jhonyermo]

I ADORE . . . YOU BELONG to me. Thanks for reaction

[@M_ondo]

@@jhonyermo Jo Stafford had the original in 52,also Dean Martin did a great cover. Both are very good tho I believe my favorite is by Duprees.

[@catmother4214]

I've loved the Duprees for over 60 years. 💖💖💖

[@tombialoglow549]

Original groups cannot be substituted, duplicated, or replicated. So always give credit to the one and only "Original" Duprees. Joey Canzano also known as Joey Vann, Joe Santollo, John Salvato, Mike Arnone and myself Tom Bialoglow.

[@dagmar.6954]

Another one of the doo-wop groups from the 60's. "You Belong To Me" was their biggest hit in 1962. They had a few other songs such as "Gone With The Wind", "Have You Heard?" & "Why Don't You Believe Me". (I think you reacted to this song over a week ago)

[@dagmar.6954]

@Donatella Loncar I think it was as I left a comment about it then.

[@thomastimlin1724]

Why don't You Believe Me was a big hit for Joni James in the early 1950's....

[@victorcowboywest]

The Duprees release "YOU BELONG TO ME "in 1962 it reached #6 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Has some success in the 70's as the Italian Asphalt & Pavement Comp. Other hits "HAVE YOU HEARD (1963),"TOTAL RECALL" (1968) You Belong To Me has also been recorded by Jason Wade(2001), Patsy Cline(1962),Bob Dylan(1994), Dean Martin (1957)and Tori Amos(2001)

[@OldBoiler62]

"Have You Heard" has always been a favorite.

[@edprzydatek8398]

And Jo Stafford I believe.

[@victorcowboywest]

@@edprzydatek8398 you're right !

[@thomastimlin1724]

@@edprzydatek8398 Yes. Most Famous version Jo Stafford, 1952 , but in 1952 Joni James sang it as well. Popular with Korean War soldiers. Have You Heard mentioned above is also Joni James' hit. By the time the Duprees did it the song was at least 10 years old. I Like Jo Stafford's version best, total class and style. Reactors would do well to do the research and hear original versions of these covers and become educated as to the history of American popular music.

[@raelee4550]

Sincerely by the moonglows will melt your heart!!!!

[@raymoles]

These guys sang at my senior prom in 1964 in Phila.

[@irenelopez7555]

Love this song and all like it. ❤️

[@bb89670]

Wow, I love it. I used to listen to all these beautiful oldies.

[@ANNEAVES]

I don't know who gives me cold chills the most the song or you guys. Your reactions are about the most genuine I've seen. You loving these types of love songs I think you would love "HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY" by the Tuneweavers. It's a heart melter

[@senoragreenrouzier2619]

Yes!!! To “Happy Happy Birthday Baby”

[@tombialoglow549]

I Agree. It's a great recording.

[@doowopp45]

"My Own True Love" and Have You Heard" are both great songs by the Doprees.

[@PJMurphyNJ]

My favorite by the Duprees is My Own True Love. I worked for a company that had their hands in many things. They actually had a record label with some recording studio in the next County. The owner/producer was a fantastic singer in his own right. His oldies band always played My Own True Love... The singer was good friends with the late great Johnny Maestro.

[@vixybanker]

This is one of the most romantic songs ever written. Before my time, but I can see four well dressed men under a streetlight harmonize in the ‘ 50’s

[@tombialoglow549]

Make it five and you've got The "Original" Duprees.

[@ivancito1066]

I love this group, my grandmother used to listen to them many years ago and I grew up listening to them, I was so in love with Mike Kelly and his melodious voice, especially when he sang My love my love, I only regret not having been born a long time ago and maybe being able to enjoy any of their live, I am currently 25 years old and I still like them, I will always love them The Duprees were very special from my childhood and especially Mike Kelly, I love him ❤😢

[@tombialoglow549]

Mike had a great lead.

[@starleemartin1961]

My parents are massive Doo Wop fans. Have been since the 50s and passed that love onto me. This music has a way of soothing my soul more than anything and I just melt. Better than any tranquilizer I've ever been prescribed!

[@lesliebblack]

If you loved this, check out ‘The Ink Spots’, same genre, a lot of slow dancing; they did tons of stuff.

[@rosemariediamond7855]

I’ve waited so long for you to hear this. One of my favorites of the time. I can’t stop but sing it when I hear it.

[@clydeb7713]

Wow the love you both have for each other is AWESOME! What great voices The Duprees!

[@jeffclark7888]

Review “Have You Heard?” by the Duprees. Beautiful!

[@liliaalesan8201]

Love your reaction! One of my favorite song! This is a classic!

[@tommydaniels4711]

Patsy Cline does this also. She is great!

[@lauraparker6391]

They did this live on a pbs doo wop special you should see that it was awesome

[@lauraparker6391]

[@miastory247]

it is so nice to see the love between you guys. and i have always loved this song!

[@joeyrobison6629]

In 1962, Patsy Cline released an album "Sentimentally Yours" (the last album released in her lifetime) which included such standards as "That's My Desire", "You Made Me Love You (I Didn't Want to Do It)", "Anytime", "You Were Only Fooling (While I Was Falling In Love)" and this song, "You Belong To Me". I think you would enjoy listening to all these songs, since Patsy put her signature on all of these old songs!

[@ABfromWindsor]

Shawn and Mel, this is another great group from the past that had some great love songs and were classy performers and"You Belong To Me" is a great example of a love song. ❤👍👍

[@lutz1114]

"They don't make music like that anymore, they really don't" You are so right Mel. It was my era. and I am really enjoying your reactions. Try "Have You Heard" by them next.

[@clydehoppers6375]

I love this guys, I haven't heard this one in years.

[@56music64]

Hi Mel and Shawn, please listen to "White Cliffs of Dover" or "We'll meet again" by the wonderful Dame Vera Lynn, she was the soldiers sweetheart during WWII - thanks

[@oldermusiclover]

love White Cliffs

[@loilt5091]

Born at the turn of the magic '60's and all it's glorious, musical promise, my roots are in vintage rock and roll, R&B, instrumental goodness, surf tunes, classic country & balladry. Keep it coming‼️

[@annetterivers2745]

Watching the two of you listening to this song made me cry. God bless you and your family.

Finally a channel that digs into the real oldies. Thank you for this reaction, hope y’all do a lot more, there’s so many great ones.

[@susanthompson8962]

I love your reactions to this. Listen to "Take Me As I Am." By The Duprees. You will love it!

[@rosemariediamond5948]

This has to be my favorite song of the 60’s. Thank you for this reaction

[@russellyoung1262]

You should look for them live in a doowop special when they bring old groups on stage to perform..the one I seen is when they are dressed in Grey suits, and they are like in their 60's...and they sound great

[@tombialoglow549]

They are just a cover group that is licensed to use the name. They never even recorded a hit record.

[@Nanette322]

Every week was another hit to listen to. Our little transistor radios on the beach was all we needed to make us happy.

[@barbaramaxwell908]

Love the doo- wop! Sure brings back memories. Loved dancing to this music.

[@liliaalesan8201]

Thank you for your reactions on all of the oldies but goodies. Never gets old!! Classics!!

[@michaellazzeri2069]

Composed in 1947, as a C & W song, by Chilton Price, Redd Stewart, & Pee Wee King, & 1st recorded in early '52, by C. & W singer, Sue Thompson. Later that summer, Patti Page made a lush, instrumentally strong version. But it was in September of '52, when Jo Stafford, with Paul Weston & his orchestra, made THE biggest recording , going to #1 all over the USA, for a month. Deam martin did a version, & here, The Duprees did it their way. ------------------MJL, 75 y/o

[@tombialoglow549]

Pee Wee King, along with being a song writer was also a musician and a bit player in Gene Autrey western movies. In fact Pee Wee got his name from Gene Autrey since he was a little fella. When we met him in 1962 he was living in Louieville, Kentucky. Tom Bialoglow Founding Member of The "Original" Duprees

[@beeseewill2407]

Hes telling her.Go see the world, but remember I'm right here waiting for you.You Belong to Me.

[@DooWops4U2]

Again nice group to do your reaction. They were phenomenal with a string of hit songs. As a matter of fact we did this song in 1967 at out High School shower of stars and got standing ovation. Now get a chance and listen to the Passions and maybe my fav The Earls I Believe enjoy!!!

[@bobhammon1514]

you 2 are so meant for each other, don't lose that look you have for each other, SPECIAL loves are rare and so fragile, protect it with all your heart !!! Pappa O'GEE !!!

[@camf33]

Trivia guys .. the Duprees established themselves by having the unique characteristics of the big bands coming from the 40s, very subtle in their harmonies but you can still soot the sounds, also they didn't do much of up tempo but they did recorded one particularly very good called 'I wish I could believe you'. Please check it out if you haven't.

[@sarablack2547]

Awe you guys.so romantic.i can picture you two old and grey on a porch swing holding hands listening to this! Rip Betty White the last golden girl 😢🙏🌈

[@DCBIGOSO]

I request to hear that other song from The Deprees. "This is dedicated to The One I Love"

[@CarolynStewart-v5q]

I was 10 when when this song was a hit. But as I listen to it now I think back to my youth growing up in Passaic, NJ, American Bandstand and Cousin Brucie on WABC radio and I get tears in my eyes.

Awesome reaction video! I have loved this song since I was a little girl! My parents always played their music in our house growing up and dancing to this song and others in our living room. We lost my Dad just under a year ago so watching this made me smile. Another incredible song by The Duprees is Have You Heard.

[@Emilyhildegaard1]

My husband was singing alone with this, to me. Soooooo romantic! The old songs are the BEST. True romance, not so sexy.

[@rsherman5993]

This song reminds me of when in 1968 I was stationed at Andersen AFB Guam (B52 bomber base) during the Vietnam war and my new bride was here for my 15 months over there.

From the spring of 1962, this song made it to # 7 .--------------originally 5, here 4, nice Italian / Sicilian boys from Jersey City, NJ. Everyone slow danced to this version. -------------MJL, 75 y/o

[@tombialoglow549]

I don't know if I'll get all the spelling right because I am not Italian. John Salvato I believe was the only Sicilian. Joe Santollo's Mother came from "Barri" so he was Barrez. Mike Arnone was Roman from Rome. Our lead singer Joey Canzano aka Joey Vann was Nablidon from Naples. And Tom Bialoglow was the ringer in the group. He was and is "Polish"

[@tombialoglow549]

That's not true. Check your facts.

[@philly452009]

This was a great written by Country Music legend Pee Wee King, who recorded the original version
