hey it's the 78 year old grandma, it's because of groups like this and music like this that most of you are alive and breathing on planet earth today, as your parents or grandparents feel in love slow dancing to this kind of music back in the day. We had the best of the best.

Tony Williams is an all time voice. He could be a lead in any era.

You got that right!

Tony and rudy Lewis of the drifters God given vocals .Amen

[@davidpeters3857]

Tony Williams is the best male vocalist in history

[@dagmar.6954]

This is another fabulous group from the 50's-60's. This was the time of classy romantic heartfelt songs. Sadly they don't make music like this anymore. They had so many great hits such as "Only You", "Enchanted", "(You've Got) The Magic Touch", "My Prayer", "Twilight Time", "Harbor Lights", "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes", "The Great Pretender" etc.

[@kolomo44]

Let's not forget...."Roll With Me Henry" and "YOU'LL NEVER KNOW"

[@ithilnin123]

They’ve reacted to “Only You,” “Smoke Gets in Your Eyes,” and “The Great Pretender” within the last 2-3 weeks, if you want to go back and see those. 💁🏻‍♀️

In 1958 "Twilight Time" went to #1 on the Billboard charts for "The Platters." They were one of the greatest groups to come out of the 50's. There's no school like old school.

The Platters were the biggest selling black group in the 50s that crossed over to white radio......endless hits......a group that i dont think you have featured yet are The Flamingos they were a close 2nd in popularity behind The Platters.......The Flamingos "I Only Have Eyes For You" is a MUST HEAR AND SEE (performed on American Bandstand)......The Flamingos have some of the most beautiful songs you ever heard

[@rog2849]

Classic song pure class

[@joannevincent2035]

"My Prayer", "Harbor Lights", "Only You", "(You've Got) The Magic Touch" - all classics by the Platters! You'll be delighted and amazed.

[@patriciaotoole5930]

I was 18. Then. And at 81 still love them. Takes me back ty. We lived in a more romantic time music wise. They were a class act

The Platters are timeless, such great songs and delivered so beautifully. Pleaase do my fav. "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes".

[@johnbrookes3261]

Platters rank among the all time greats . There is so much good music from back then but they are there at the top so talented .

[@russelljoslinjr4387]

This group is so smooth!

[@kayeruss7313]

When songs had melodies, clean lyrics and were sung by people who could sing beautifully.

[@db90990]

Other excellent songs by them: ONLY YOU, THE GREAT PRETENDER, MY PRAYER & THE MAGIC TOUCH 🎶🎼🎵

[@danielstorm8931]

My parents were married in 1952 and I was born in 1960. The Platters were the center piece to their record collection and during the house parties we had at our house they all danced to the songs and sounds of the Platters. Great memories from my childhood.

[@PapaEli-pz8ff]

I was born in 1950 and listened to so many of their records from my mother's collection 🎶

[@rosemariediamond7855]

My heart melted! Love the oldies from the 50’s and 60’s.

[@rebeccarockchik6704]

This is such a classic song!! ✌❤

[@raenellefisher8514]

This was my first favorite song. I was eleven when this came out. "I fall in love again as I did then."

[@TomGorham]

One of my favorites. I remember when it was new and I could sing it word for word with him to this day.

[@barnaby5548]

Me too.

[@patrickwellington4214]

Magnificent my friends,this group was the biggest group from the early fifties to the middle sixties.They were the forerunners to the Motown and Philadelphi groups,the lead singer was Tony Williams.The man was so classy in his singing, he pronounced every word.When he sang it was like a poem accompanied by music, which is what a good song is. This man sang like a classical tenor, I always believed that he came from a classical background.He hardly ever sang falsetto,he used his natural tenor instead.Make sure you listen to Harbour Lights, To Each His Own and Remember When A.S.A.P.

[@richardhenderson9767]

"Ebb Tide", "My Prayer", "The Magic Touch", "Red Sails In the Sunset", "You'll Never Know", "Harbor Lights"...❤❤❤

[@PapaEli-pz8ff]

Don't forget Sleepy Lagoon 🎶😊

[@FEFE0611]

Oh my goodness! The voice of the lead singer is beyond exquisite! I absolutely love the true talent of this group. The Platters are the epitome of what true talent is all about.

[@dianethompson9210]

I grew up listening to all this music because of my mom, aunt's, and uncles, grandma too! In between the Mexican ballads and Mariachi music, we always had the oldies as part of every gathering. Miss those days.

[@lauren92355]

The Platters Music Is A Series Of Masterpiece’s! One Of My Favorites Of Theirs Is My Prayer

[@BeHappy-cp4fv]

That was such a beautiful song. I'm so glad Mel and Shawn reviewed it.

[@9284vr]

@Shawn and Mel...Since you and all your viewers love the Platters so much, I think you should now post a prominent photo of them on the wall behind you perhaps to the left of your own neon sign.

[@jameshicks3046]

Love this song, brings back memories when my grandmother played this on vinyl when I was a young kid.

[@chemquests]

I appreciate you featuring so many songs from the early 1900s; they’re undervalued nowadays

[@carolinegoss856]

One of the most beautiful songs ever!

[@56music64]

this was the courting song of it's era, how could any girl resist a man that either sang or liked this song. Dreamy. May I suggest another great song, "I remember you" by Australian Frank Ifield

[@alanheath7867]

I was hooked on the platters from the first time I heard them. I was only about 5-6 at the time!!! I begged the babysitter to play their record EVERY time she was there. Young, but I knew what I liked. Mid to late 50’s and early 60’s was what I fell for. As I grew up everything else was good, but just STILL doesn’t compare to that music. BTW I’m now 65, and STILL love that time period. Nothing compares today.

[@hardtask8267]

man you guy are hitting the great singers and groups!!! glad ur finding them.

[@normweldon9852]

I'm so glad to see someone reacting to music from the 50's. If I may, I'd like to recommend "My Prayer". It's my favorite Platters' song.

[@MrPete60441]

I wish we had more of this type of music right now... Doesn't get better than this...Also Shawn and Mel I love your channel... Thanks for being positive...

[@JuanRamirez-lp5uu]

Tony Williams one of the best singers ever, a class by himself a phenomenon, you will never hear a voice like that today, the ability to start at a low point and then change effortlessly to a high tone without crackling, smooth, silky, amazing.

[@nkcbrazil]

Tony Williams voice was so amazing and so effortlessness. If you haven’t done it yet wait till you hear “My Prayer” His voice OMG!

[@davidpeters3857]

💯❤️❤️

[@Barb5001]

BTW, back then a vinyl record was sometime called a "platter" for an obvious reason. One has to assume that is why they called themselves the "platters".

[@cindyphifer970]

I have a greatest hits album by them that is wonderful. The Great Pretender is a must listen to by them

[@patriciadewitt3427]

They were great. Thanks for watching this one - my all time favorite song.

Jose Feliciano also did a beautiful version of this - a little hidden gem on his album - he was not known for this song. But you'd love it!

[@victorduffany7723]

[@lindastarr4699]

This music, his voice just takes you to a place that feels special and dreamy. I love the Platters.

[@johngiovine8792]

Simply magical to this very day...

[@rcinsley]

The music of the '50s and early '60s was very special. In addition to memorable tunes and lyrics, a song of that era had to be dance-able.

This is another favorite of mine from the platters. Mel’s gonna love this one!!

[@williamstlouis3368]

Love the Platters. Take a listen to the Dells. More beautiful SOUL. Peace out.

[@wendynorton9465]

I was about 12 when this song came out and was a teen when a lot of the other songs you have reviewed were new in the early 60s. I love that you have gone back into the archives and revived some of the old stuff. The Platters have so many great songs to review. Some of my favorites are "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes", "My Prayer" which is especially lovely, "The Magic Touch", "The Great Pretender", "Only You" and so many more.

[@A1since1976]

Such talent / such poetry / such romance ! Gone so long ago ! I can remember the Platters as a young child ! I didn`t know much about the lyrics , I knew they were amazing ! creme de le creme ! Their music brings me back! It`s timeless! I still get chills !

[@edcastillo9342]

[@garrymoore2161]

I'm 67. Y'all take me back more than five decades where I cannot help but smile as I listen.

[@Blondemom2855]

Kathy here - I grew up listening to their music when my parents would have parties back in the day. Daddy would put on their album, slow dance with me standing on top of his feet, and then me and my sister were sent off to bed. What memories their music brings back for me. I am 68 years old and could listen to their music all the time! Thanks for the review.

[@johnmeadows5645]

I only have one thing to say about this group, classy. There were none with more class than them.
