The Lennon SIsters - Unchained Melody

[@donnawatkins4796]

I'm always amazed at how young and small Kathy was when they started out. She has such a good, strong alto voice, it seems impossible to come from one so young.

[@dl4475]

The small one is Janet; Kathy is on her right.

[@DarkFlower012]

I think she means because Kathy was the one who sang the alto part, even though she wasn't the youngest, still very strong singing for that age.

[@KrakFire]

@@dl4475the one in the right is peggy

[@FrettieFingers]

i met them when i was very little, my Aunt Rose did their hair/wigs for the show. I didn't appreciate how good they really were at that age.

Gosh u must be old. No offence. Ur lucky tho

[@lily1998]

[@Imissthepostoffice]

I only wish they would have met the men as great as them. They had to go through some hard times. And what happened to their dad was .. so very unspeakably sad. Life isn't easy. Just what a joy to hear them singing together ; so truly beautiful.

[@paulmanansala665]

Back to those days when singing was a pure talent.

i wish music was still enchanting like this

[@pedrovictor8694]

Oh, my love, my darling I've hungered for your touch A long, lonely time Time goes by so slowly And time can do so much Are you still mine? I need your love I need your love God speed your love to me Lonely rivers flow To the sea, to the sea To the open arms of the sea Lonely rivers sigh "Wait for me, wait for me" I'll be coming home, wait for me Oh, my love, my darling I've hungered, for your touch A long, lonely time Time goes by so slowly And time can do so much Are you still mine? I need your love I need your love God speed your love to me

[@infamous8181]

i wish music was still like this……: ( i really do, everything,,, nothing past the 60's is so enchanting, everything after that was mostly corrupted by people being un natural …it's really frightening to think what it is going to be, even what it is like now. think about it people, lets bring this music back!! WE HAVE TOO

Most songs past the 70’s are bad. Music is slowly getting better, though, in my opinion. Less really fast useless talking about how fun a drive-by shooting would be, more meaningful lyrics.

Same here. When I was a kid the Lennon kids were another reason my Mom tied-up the TV for an hour on Saturday nights. ha Just recently I have started listening to them via youtube. Great harmonies and flat out good looking women.

[@kavic1234]

The Lennon Sisters and later Anacani are the main reasons that I continue to watch the Lawrence Welk Show on PBS, plus its the only good music left on TV

[@donnawatkins4796]

I wonder if Kathy had to learn not to turn her head while singing. She definitely favors one side. Loved them all back then, and still do today.

[@fordman4444]

The very best in entertainment with these 4 lovely girls !!!! How precious!

[@emojiji2024]

This is so wonderful. The blending the harmony. Just wow.

[@MAKEOVERGUY]

I gotta say....I agree. Respect and appreciation and charm. Lost.

[@earltrombley7646]

Fabulous. I still watch Welk sometimes on PBS. There were hundreds of great moments on this show.

[@elliebrannigan9584]

I think Kathy is the prettiest out of them all but the eldest Is the best singer

[@Target_Buster]

I agree with Kathy being the most beautiful hands down. I think she's the best singer too, but when they all come together it's beautiful.

[@vikkibyington989]

[@liwmld]

what a lovely rendition of this old song. of course they would do a fabulous job, but it's even better than i expected. they just sing so beautifully together. God bless you and your families, ladies.

[@Tonithenightowl]

My grandmother loved Laurence Welk and I spent many a Saturday evening watching this show with her. The Lennon Sisters were my favorite part. They had beautiful harmony due to the fact that they were related. I have heard wonderful harmonies from diversed people but it just isn't quite the same thing as when its done by siblings. That kind of harmony is in a league of it's own.

[@najafa3520]

Yes, siblings, when they can sing, have such similar voices they blend beautifully and seamlessly, very tough to replicate in nonrelated groups!

[@c.hundley9714]

That was a whole can of pure talent.

It wasn’t better. People were racist, discrimination against people who aren’t white. Get some facts straight. Not everything is good.

@john1948eighta Heck yes lol. Bee Gees, Osmonds, Sly and the Family Stone, Cowsills, The Walker Bros., McQuire sisters, Nancy and Frank Sinatra, Neil Sedaka and his daughter, Billy Joel and his daughter. We have a local band with father, son and daughter vocals and they can send chills up your spine. I think it's just in the genes lol. If you can think of others please let me know lol.

You’re correct. Their children are extremely talented, but the boys you mentioned are their younger brothers. It’s one big talented family.

[@judyroyal3577]

...and Don & Phil Everly - possibly the best of the family groups!

[@tommyp48]

The girls do a great job but it seems an odd choice of material for kids to sing. Maybe it was because "Unchained Melody" was a popular song on the radio about that time. The song came from a B-movie called "Unchained." It's about life in a prison.

[@cocoaorange1]

Ingles Corner I was thinking the same thing. But then again, the Jackson 5 were singing romantic ballads when the 2 youngest were just kids as well. I use to watch this show as a child in the 70',s

[@najafa3520]

Yes, Michael Jackson blew Smokey Robinson out of the water by singing 'When I had You' at 10, and he had NO romantic experience yet!

[@fionamargaretwraith6]

This a lot better than ‘Tonight you belong to me’ which they also sang. That seemed very inappropriate to me.

[@dancebandleader]

The girls were very young when the did this. Even so it's miles ahead of the dreadful Righteous Brothers version with it's echo chambers, and phony soul music type accents (bet they didn't speak that way at home) presenting the melody simply and without gimmicks is still a good approach. I don't think the girls recorded this (every song they did on the show did not always have a record release) Remember folks, the toughest thing to do is the least tricky and the least gimmicky !

[@Fool3SufferingFools]

Yeah, if you only ever heard the Righteous Brothers’ version, you wouldn’t know the melody of the song at all because it takes a back seat to all their vocal noodling.

Definition of lady...polite dignified woman: a woman who behaves very politely and with dignity. You're right...social graces are no longer taught by parents or schools. Definition of gentleman...polite and cultured man: a cultured man who behaves with courtesy and thoughtfulness. Same applies for how boys are being raised. We must be careful not to confuse strength and independence with the inability to be a lady. You can be a female soldier carrying a rifle in fatigues and still be a lady.
