Ricky Nelson - Poor little girl | REACTION

[@Zebred2001]

Yup that's him Tysheen. He died on the last day of 1985. He had a great hit in the early 70's called Garden Party.

Spring of 1958-----------I was 11 y/o, in 6th grade, & this was My song .

[@JAYJason6666]

He passed away New years eve 1986 in a plane crash, his whole band died with him...He was 2nd to Elvis in the late 50s/early 60s....Your right, he was apparently painfully shy...

[@michaellazzeri2069]

Backing Rick here are The Jordanaires, the same quartet that backed Elvis on his early 50's & 60's hits. --------------MJL, 76 y/o

Thanks Tysheen for bringing back old memories. You know he grew up on TV on the "Ozzie and Harriet Show". I watched him last week in "Rio Bravo" with John Wayne. He was a good actor too. I'm sure he was put in it just for the younger girls but he did good. He was a big teen idol and there are a ton of hit's. But I always think of "Garden Party". It was after the teen stuff was over and his type was out of fashion in the music biz. It's a great song even if he did drop some names.

Around the period where this video shows him with the longer hair. "But no one recognized me, I didn't look the same" - lyrics from Garden Party.

[@JAYJason6666]

Neat stuff....Him and Elvis had the same guitar player. 'Hello Mary Lou' is probably his most famous song...

[@timcarr6401]

Well, not at the same time. Elvis got James Burton in 1969. Elvis used to watch Ozzie And Harriet (as I did) and liked the way James played guitar.

The song's name is poor little fool

Loved Ricky Nelson, his twin sons are very talented.

[@barbaravickerman7520]

I really loved your video.Keep going. San Francisco Calif

[@timcarr6401]

On the tv show Ozzie and Harriet Ricky, starting at age 17 had a five minute part at the end of each show in which he sang.

[@debjorgo]

My favorite song from Ricky is a later song that was a Bob Dylan cover called She Belongs to Me. Great, great song!

[@dichter331]

Hi, late, but: It was even older, it was sung by Jo Stafford first. (In my opinion the best version) Cheers! 🙂

[@debjorgo]

@@dichter331 Not sure what you're telling me. I don't see that Jo Stafford ever recorded She Belongs to Me. She did a song called You Belong to Me.

[@dichter331]

@@debjorgo Thats the same Song. You should have heard it first. 🙂

[@dichter331]

@@debjorgo Or maybe I was wrong, I thought about the other Dylon Song, that was his cover of Jo Staffords "You belong to me" Shame on me than.

[@debjorgo]

@@dichter331 Okay. I'm with you now. I was trying to figure out where you were coming from. And there you have it. Dylan did record Stafford's You Belong to Me. It's just not the song I was talking about. 🙂

[@jayrob280]

Ya that's him he was 45 when he passed in a plane crash in 1985 new years eve.

[@shirleycarr5387]

Used to watch Ricky in Ossie Harriet show.his real family.

[@martinvalentine5596]

ha ha when you seen if. it was. him when older not sure but loveed reaction good gob girl👍💓👌

[@Rebel9668]

The title threw me as I've always known this song as "Poor Little Fool" so I had to listen to see if it was some song I hadn't heard. :) Tysheen, Do you remember a boy band back in the 90's called "Nelson"? Those two boys (Gunnar & Matthew) are Ricky's sons.

[@michaellazzeri2069]

MADAM -----------yes, that is Rick nelson from 1983--------YOU can see this here on YT. --------he died in a plane crash, just like too many others from music have died----------on New Years Eve, 1985.

[@shondell67]

Glad you went back to the Ricky train Tysheen! Believe What You Say is good rocker to react to. Not so serious in that one.

[@dirish709]

I'm sure someone has mentioned it's Poor little fool right?

[@hermanripps3692]

poor little fool, title.

[@hermanripps3692]

he was killed right after that.

[@MrDaiseymay]

THIS IS A BAD CHOICE OF VIDEOS. TOO MANY CUTS AND POOR CYNC'S. BEST TO JUST HEAR THE MUSIC.
