These ladies make me miss a time I was never even a part of.

The McGuire Sister's were so Wonderful, I am only 60 years old but My Beloved Mother, and Grandmother' would play their albums for me and I love them both so much for sharing incredible Music with me....

rock and roll and Elvis and the Beatles were great but this kinda of music did not deserve to be buried.I said it and I feel better.

I think it's just more that everything has its heyday, even rock, which is pretty out of fashion now.

Total class-----------the likes of which, we'll not see or hear, ever again.

[@colinpurssey9875]

Lyrically, one of the best songs ever , and done justice by the McGuire Sisters. Great !!

Late to the party but glad I got here. This type of harmony is amazing.

The McGuire Sisters are an example of vocal greatness. The talent is obvious. I think I'd like to hear Phyllis McGuire's solo records to hear vocal on its own and see how it stands up. I had seen a clip from the mid 70's when she sang on I think it was The Tonight Show and she had a great vocal as a solo artist. The best clip I suggest is the Arthur Godfrey Talent Show clip where a gentleman from the Van Cleve Hotel in Dayton, Ohio, introduced the McGuire Sisters because they sang regularly at his hotel. They were mind slowly great and impressive for their initial appearance on national television.

McGuire sisters were from my hometown of Middletown Ohio.

The McGuire Sisters. No other comments are required.

[@rd4429]

pure dancing - no acrobatics...

[@mkptrsn]

I wonder what show this was. Great harmonies!

[@Nunofurdambiznez]

My own guess would be The Perry Como Show.. they were on his show a lot back in the late '50s and early '60s.

[@youminholastransit3218]

Phyllis only one living!!!

[@summermen]

What show is this and who did that fab choreography? Answers, please!

[@kerryincolumbus]

with as fabulous as the band is here, my guess would be this is the Perry Como show - his TV band was always very good! I looked up the Perry Como episodes just now and he did indeed have the McGuire sisters on his show at least 3 times in 1959, so I'm going to definitely go with the Perry Como show.

kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqTGk2ujoZJlgac Click on the link for the entire show. Don't know who did the choreography, but an article with photos in the March 17, 1958, edition of Life magazine shows them being coached by June Taylor. So whoever crafted their dance routine was top notch.

Arthur Godfrey Maybe?’

[@johnmeyer2781]

@@ronniebishop2496 Let's give a shout-out to Johnny Burke's dynamic lyric and Arthur Johnsto'ns catchy, bouncy melody!

[@Nunofurdambiznez]

@@kerryincolumbus I'd have to agree.. was most likely the Perry Como show.
