"I Believe" was performed on a December 15, 1952 episode of the musical variety television show starring singer and actress Jane Froman. The series premiered on October 18, 1952. It was later known as "The Jane Froman Show." This episode is particularly noteworthy for the first performance of the song, "I Believe," which was written for Jane Froman at her request. Who later perfomed it with Chorus and Orchestra conducted by Sid Feller. Release date: January 1953. There were 15 adaptations to this song and 192 versions of it. In my humble opinion..The Young Rascals did the best version of this song ever recorded.

This song by the Rascals makes me cry!

[@billcreighton2839]

The BEST recording of a GREAT song!!!

[@bigaciousg]

One of my faves from the first LP, Eddie always had the best voice!!

[@eighttothebar5339]

Yes! Although the 1st is a Rock'n'Roll/Rhythm & Blues LP, 2 ballads, including 'I Believe' stand out, I think.

[@richylally2479]

This song was the one of the most requested songs no matter what band I was singing with

[@tedfountain6776]

best ever!!!

I was 9yo when these guys hit it big, but because my family sorta knew them (Felix's dad was our dentist), I never really paid attention to any of it. But then, a couple years later,when I saw Eddie sing this song, I fell madly in love with him - just like every other teenage girl in the country - lol! After a lifetime of experience, with a career as a music industry professional and married to a very talented musician for over 3o years, I look back at this and have to applaud Felix for his insight and ability to see the bigger picture. Eddie did nothing but add sex appeal to the band. He wasn't a musician at all - he didn't play an instrument. And, quite frankly, Felix could have sung this song as well, if not better, than Eddie did. Felix sang lead on most of their hits.

[@tapeinosG5011]

Non-sense! Eddie co-wrote with Felix Cavaliere. Ask yourself why would Eddie be chosen to sing and play with The Young Rascals/Rascals? Did you ever see the Rascals live back when they were a solid band making hit records? If you did not then your comment is an insult to The Rascals and Eddie and David Brigati and far fetched. If you care enough? look back at The Rascals history/biography.

The Letterman did this song

[@fvfanmc]

Sorry, but the Earls version is much better

[@Janadu]

Good for you

[@carlosheredia9992]

The Earl's version is very good but it has a faster tempo and lacks the emotional delivery that Eddie puts into it
