Skyliners - Since I Don't Have You

[@howlingwolf9729]

Hundreds of millions of the songs written and performed and this one is, and will always be in the top 10.

I was so fortunate to have grown up during era 50's 60's best love songs, beautiful music, great talented groups, never get tired of listening," Since I don't have you " it's etched forever in my memory, always in the top 10 no doubt.

Me too, boy what a different world we are in today, but at least we're still in the world, we lost most of those wonderful people.

In 1959 i was seventeen I joined the air force the best time of my life. Im eghity two if I could go back in time thats where I would go. Write now, im crying, knowing i dont know how much time i have to live. This music brings be back. All i know is my heat aches. Knowing I cant go back.

[@50sVintage]

You are not alone. I would go back to the 60s in a heartbeat. I'm 71 and worry about those dependent on me as I don't know how long I have either. I'm grateful I grew up in the 50s & 60s. We were taught things that youngsters today cannot conceive - we were resourceful in every way. It came across in the music also. Kids today don't have a clue.

[@John-ob7dh]

I was 18 in 1959 and was the singer in a local 3 piece rock band.I met a beautiful 16 year old that year at a local teen dance. Great days.

[@JimGaltieri]

Brings tears to your eyes. Anyone growing up in the 50s has to have this song in their top five. Beautiful!!

[@humbertomoreno141]

I'm 75 and I always remember this wonderful song by the Skyliners, it's sad that most of its members have passed away.

80 now and it stills gives me what no other song can.....

When I used to babysit my sister's children, I would play this on her record player, it's a miracle I didn't ware out the record. One of my fav all time groups❤ the "Skyliners" 😊

One of the best Doo wop songs ever sung. Cruising in a 57 Chevy. 4 on the floor. Bench seats. Glass pipe muffler. Reverberator hooked to radio. Top down cruiser sound.. u couldn’t buy those times today. It’s world that I lived in and there is nothing on earth I would trade for those times

[@LarsDcCase]

Great song. 😀R I P Jimmy and the rest of the group.

[@Pete970]

He always loved his fans. Was with him in car once just after we recorded an ad for a show at WCBS FM Ron Lundy called him out saying Hey Johnny thanks for stopping by. He then played Worst that could happen. Johnny was jeweled. Made my day too.

[@rockmartinez6482]

Jimmy Beaumont is the greatest Do Wop lead singer bar none. There are many other outstanding voices, Little Anthony, Johnny Maestro, Tony Williams but Beaumont is unique in style and vocal power, just amazing.

[@cynthia6637]

What a way to grow up..... It's such a different feeling with these songs I favor because I was there....Growing up right along with these groups.....It's more than just a song.....It was a big part of my life back then......The Skyliners was right on top of my list.....from 1958.....Bought every song they recorded......

I saw the Skyliners as recently as about 3 years ago at a church bazaar in McKees Rocks, Pittsburgh. They performed for at least an hour, they had a whole band with them, sung all my favorites. I thought it was really nice of them to be there, there was no cover charge so they must have been there gratis. Thank you Skyliners for your wonderful music.

Absolutely beautiful. Form is temporary, class is permanent. 😊

[@darreleggemeyer539]

The girl's voice at the end is unreal !

[@jsusna1972]

Can't be sure, but it looks like she crosses her fingers just before she hits the really high note at the end. I'd say she nailed it.

[@ABfromWindsor]

Always loved Jimmy Beamont and the Skyliners and when songs were about love and romance, what a great time to grow up in.
