This song was written by the great Carole King -- another artist you need to hit on Female Friday. She was a hit writer with her husband Jerry Goffin in NY and wrote for many girl groups. The Monkees recorded her song "Pleasant Valley Sunday". She then got a divorce, moved to CA & became friends with Joni Mitchell, who encouraged her to start singing her own music. Carole's album "Tapestry" is a masterpiece.

[@leefriedman9882]

I’ve been saying this forever. It seems like a conscious choice not react to her yet. It’s not like she’s the most important female singer/songwriter of all time or anything.😬 Actually - you can remove the word ”female.” She’s one of the best- period.

[@kenpaden]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Carole is a legend, I know Amber would love her!!

[@marleneclausen30]

IMHO it is the Tapestry is the best album (tied with Rod Stewart’s Foot Loose and Fancy Free) ever recorded. I have purchased it in every iteration and never, never tire listening to it.

[@thomastimlin1724]

James Taylor also encouraged Carole King to go solo. She played a lot on his first few albums. He did her You've got a Friend song and made it so popular at the same she had t on her first solo album.

[@michaelmacdermott6340]

Yes this is Doo-Wop style, but you referenced The Andrews Sisters. They were not Doo-Wop, they were Swing / Boogie Woogie. Having had their career spanning from the mid-20s to the mid-60s. They were most known for their music during the 40s, which was Swing and Boogie Woogie during World War II.

[@AnnieAnnieBuckwheatCakes]

The Andrews Sisters recorded with many other greats from the time such as Bing Crosby. Great music.

The Andrews Sisters were NOT doo wop. They were much earlier 1940s Big Band sound. Doo wop was late 50s early 60s.

[@avidrdr5640]

Doo-wop started in the late 40's.

[@Diva369]

The Andrews Sisters are "Swing"

[@surlechapeau]

Swing music is a style, just like traditional jazz and bebop are styles of music played by certain groups of musicians at a certain time in history. Big band, on the other hand, is a format, and as such has existed in jazz music from the swing era right into the present. There are big bands who played swing (Count Basie, Artie Shaw).

[@josephmiller8378]

Carol King wrote this and hundreds of other songs spanning several genres of music. From One Fine Day to Up on The Roof to You've got a Friend to Natural Woman to songs she recorded herself.

[@d.j.starling3559]

One Fine Day was written by Gerry Goffin & his one-time wife, Carole King, one of the most prolific & successful songwriting teams of the 50s & 60s. Many varied artists recorded their songs & turned them into hit records. In fact, if you took a list of Goffin/King songs by the artists who made them famous & reacted only to those songs, you'd probably have enough material for a month!! And they're almost all GREAT!!! Regardless of who performs them, or the genre of their choice. In 1970, Carole decided to use her own voice to sing her own songs, & her second album, Tapestry, is often cited as the best album of all-time!! Every song on it is great. I Feel The Earth Move is one of my favorites. And I do believe you will absolutely LOVE Carole's voice when you finally let yourselves listen. I hope you'll give yourselves that gift very soon!

This song is written by Carole King who is one of the most prolific singer songwriters. You really need to listen to her on Female Friday. May I suggest her songs I FEEL THE EARTH MOVE, IT'S TOO LATE, and "YOU'VE GOT A FRIEND, just to name a few.

[@definitelydelish]

Yeah you have to react to Carole King, she wrote so much amazing music for all of these groups in this era and then went on to do amazing solo work on her own.

[@wright1776]

I went to the Broadway show "Beautiful" and it was the story of Carole King's life and I would definitely go again if it came to town. It was amazing how many hits she wrote and her performance is so real and rich.

[@JimiBurleigh]

Right said, well stated. It's hard to imagine that it took until 2021 for her to be inducted into the Rock 7 Roll Hall of Fame as a performer in her own right. She was already inducted into the rock hall as a writer along with her former husband and writing partner Gerry Goffin in the 1990's so this makes her a double inductee.

[@karensilvera6694]

@@wright1776 OMG! I'm so jealous. I had plans but something always came up.

[@karensilvera6694]

I really wish they had a few open comments sections for requests in different genres. Motown, female Friday, 80s, grunge, 60s, etc. Then they could easily see requests instead of trying to find them in other singers reactions. Then they could see how many of us asked for different requests. I know we've collectively asked for Carole King but I don't think all of us did so I'm the same comments. I know I've requested Carole King dozens of times and Rose Mary Clooney's Come on to our house. Now they could do White Christmas from the movie of the same name (from 1954). That rendition has Bing Crosby, Rose Mary Clooney, Danny Kay and Vera-Ellen.

[@bostonvair]

Another request from this era for Female Friday: It's In His Kiss (The Shoop Shoop Song) by Betty Everett. Total fire.

[@daniellecarr5014]

Betty Everett was a wonderful talent, and I just loved her voice. However my very favorite recording of hers was the duet with the great Jerry Butler when they sang "Let It Be Me". Such a romantic blend!

[@justmoose6534]

Lots of "Girl Groups" in this style in the 60s and into the 70s. The Supremes, The Ronettes, The Shirelles, Martha and the Vandellas, The Marvelletes, The Dixie Cups, The Angels, The Shangri-Las, the list goes on and on. Most were Motown artists and a lot of the songs are pretty Iconic. I'd probably try Baby Love by the Supremes, Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow by the Shirelles, Dancing In The Streets by Martha and the Vandellas, Be My Baby by the Ronettes, Chapel of Love by the Dixie Cups. Its a big rabbit hole.

[@tmorris53]

[@kevincaulder9001]

Well, if you wa more how about finally bringing in Martha Reeves and the Vandellas. HEAT WAVE, DANCING IN THE STREETS, NOWHERE TO RUN. And then of course, there are the Supremes. They have a medley on the T.A.M.I. Show that encapsulates some of their greatest hits. Because leaving Diana Ross off Female Friday seems criminal.

[@wallnut6666]

You should react to The Chiffons - "He's So Fine". It was their big hit and is just one of the all time classic songs of that era. Still stands up today as a great great song! Sadly the songwriter (Ronnie Mack) died soon after the song was released. He never got to see his song become the number one smash hit it became. But the royalties from it helped his family pay the bllls for years to come. The song is rated as one of the top 100 greatest songs of all time!

[@willdwyer6782]

The songwriting legend Carol Klein AKA Carole King wrote this song. When she was a high school freshman Carole dated fellow songwriter and high school senior Neil Sedaka. A year after he graduated he wrote and recorded a song about her called Oh Carol. By the time it was released, she had moved on and married Gerry Goffin. Since Neil and Carole were working for the same record company and there wasn't a copyright conflict, Gerry used the melody of Neil's song and wrote a new song called Oh Neil for his wife to record.

[@karendoss6026]

Please listen to the Platters, Smoke Gets In Your Eyes, Twilight Time, My Prayer, Only You, The Great Pretender. They are all great songs.

[@jeffdetmer4681]

The Chiffons, while they got started in 1960 had a bit of a carryover from the great doo wop sound of the 50s. Carole King (world class songwriter) was a teen in the 50s herself. This did have a doowop sound. The Andrew Sisters were actually biggest in the 40s though they did have a career that lasted beyond the 40s. They were part of the boogie woogie and even big band sounds. You really should check out some of the Andrews collabs with Bing Crosby. They did a number of records and movies together, as well as night club performances.

[@teerat8451]

The Shirelles are another all female group from around this time you should check out.

[@johnj2763]

Love it! The Chiffons were sweet, classy and sharp. The Goffin/King song doesn't hurt one bit either. You might want to give a listen to "He's So Fine' too. The song that inspired George Harrison to pen 'My Sweet Lord'. While you are at it take a gander at The Shirelles and sample "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow' , 'Soldier Boy' or "Mamma Said'. Also add The Ronettes to that list with "Be My Baby' and 'Walking in the Rain' and finally, who could ever forget The Crystals and "Da Doo Ron Ron'.

They won the lawsuit, and to me, it was 100% clear that the songs were basically the same thing, with different lyrics & production.

The Andrew Sisters were from the 40s Boogie Woogie sound. The Chiffons are 60s. So no, NOT at all the same. Doo Wop is NOT the Twist

[@robertcherman]

That is the biggest reason, why this is one of my favorite reaction channels to watch. I am a sucker for any music older than the 60's. I grew up in a different world than most people, even a lot that grew up in the music world. My grandpas brother was in a pretty famous Bluegrass band in Michigan, they played on TV almost every weekend. My mom loved Doo Wop, and 50's pop, rock n roll, from that era, and calling it Soda Pop Rock is just fine with me. I think people call it that too. My dad played in a bar band/wedding band. And they loved rock n roll, from hard rocking 70s to even old rock n roll from the 50s and 60s. My moms side was all on the country and pop side, my dad was all on the rock side. And, what does any boy do, but rebel. So, I grew up listening to hip hop. But in high school after my dad died, a friend asked me to join a band because I had my dads bass. I didn't even play at the time. And, they turned me on to 90s rock and grunge and metal. And, now I listen to metalcore. I have just been around all types of music that my taste is very unique. I like almost every song I listen too. No matter the genre, no matter the year. But my guilty pleasure is 50s and 60s music. I like it more than 70s and 80s and 90s. And I was born in 77, so 80s and 90s should be my thing. Which it still is, but nothing compares to that sound of the 50s and 60s. 40s an older has their special sound that can't be duplicated either. Funny story. My grandma gave me a note that said My-Ding-A-Ling, with a string tied to two bells. Because she thought I was too young to know that song by Chuck Berry, but I knew and listened to it all the time. So, she tried to trick me into think that is what it meant. Which it does! Thanks for doing the old music. Shell Gas Station in the mid 80's had this thing going on, that if you filled up your tank you could buy a cassette for a $1.00 that had 10 songs from the 50's era. The first tape you bought you got this book that you could put the tapes into. And, I loved that music as a kid. I think you can even find the set on Ebay.

One of my very very favorite songs from the 60s… The decade that I grew up in and music was so much a part of our lives. Also a lot of songs back in the day we’re about relationships, finding your girl or your guy. That’s what this song is all about

[@jamespasifull3424]

My favourite cover of this Carole King classic is by the young UK singer, Louise Setara, who included it on her debut album, Still Waters, when she was only 17!!! She slowed it right down, & turned it into a real tear-jerker, it's like an entirely different song!

[@MRoyClark]

The Andrews Sisters were from the 1940s and predated Doo Wop by over a decade, really. The song you reacted to ("Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" 1941) was Jump Blues, Big Band/Swing, or Boogie Woogie. When Doo Wop became prominent in the 1950s, it definitely paired with Andrews Sisters (along with Lemon Sisters and other proto-Girl Groups) to be formative influences on what came to be known as "the Girl Group sound". Many of the singers of Girl Groups also point to "Why Do Fools Fall in Love?" by Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers as a formative influence. There were a butt-ton of Girl Groups, though. Some had several hits. Most only had one or two. The Girl Group era lasted from the late fifties to the mid-60s. Prominent acts included The Shirelles, The Ronettes, The Shangri-Las, The Chiffons, The Marvelettes, The Bobettes, The Crystals, and a zillion others. There were also a lot of solo acts that were adjacent to the Girl Group sound, like Dionne Warwick, Lesley Gore, and Mary Wells. In the UK there were Blue Eyed Soul girls like Dusty Springfield, Lulu, and Sandie Shaw who played in the Girl Group sandbox. France had the Yé-yé girls like France Gall and Françoise Hardy. Apart from three or four comely young ladies in matching outfits, there was usually a prominent lead voice/face, simple backing vocals, swinging piano, rhythm guitar, bass, Rock'n'Roll drums, and owing to the influence of Phil Spector, a dense arrangement of orchestral instruments like mellow flugelhorns, twinkly glockenspiels, honking rhythm sax, booming timpanis, and swooping string sections. So, no. Technically Girl Groups aren't Doo Wop acts, but there is some correlation. Doo Wop was largely characterized by minimal instrumentation (often acapella) and near-constant vocal accompaniment, such as having a bass singer sing the bass rhythm instead of an electric bass guitar, and a keening falsetto lead. There was often a spoken breakdown, as well. And interestingly, nobody called it Doo Wop at the time, either. That term was coined by record collectors long after the genre had fallen from the charts. When it was popular, people usually just called it Rock'n'Roll, R'n'B, or Rhythm'n'Blues. Its influence still looms large. Ever since the Doo Wop era, the practice of silly sounding vocal nonsense has been a Pop stable to varying degrees. There was a little bit of crossover with Girl Groups and Doo Wop acts, but they mostly travelled in separate lanes with Doo Wop falling out of fashion as Girl Groups were taking over. The Motown Sound, Memphis Soul, and Psychedelic Funk approach ended up making shooby-dooby Girl Groups sound like an ancient anachronism by the end of the 1960s, though. Most Girl Groups were only around for a couple of years, but with an act like The Supremes, you can hear how drastically things changed between, say, "Baby Love" and "Lovechild", just five years apart.

I love the early sixties music. There was a lot of purity and innocence to much of that music before things went crazy later in the decade, though I must admit I like much of the music later in the decade as well -- The Doors, Jefferson Airplane, etc.

Always loved this song - just wish it went on longer. It was also listed in Rolling Stone Magazine's list of the Top 500 songs of all time.

[@turnerdan53]

Another Great Carole King Song.

[@kimcutts424]

Love love love this song.

[@ralpholson7616]

I can NOT believe you still have not reacted to The Supremes!!!!!!!!

[@williambianchi2006]

Really appreciate you two dipping into the oldie but goddies. Lots of incredible music from back then.

[@EcclesiasticusRex]

The Andrews Sisters were well before DooWop. But you need to hear The Ronettes “Be My Baby.” And then look for a group called The Chordettes and “Mr Sandman,” or “Lollipop.” Cheers.

[@davebronsveld4913]

Great song!! and check out "He's a Rebel" by the Crystals

[@rudyduffy6677]

Yall need to check out "Yakety Sax" Keep the Love Flowin!

[@arcillasteehouwer48]

This song never fails to make me move and smile 💃💖

[@hglick]

You definitely need to hear "He's So Fine" by the Chiffons. It was definitely their best song and it was the first song I remember hearing when I was a kid. It got me started listening to music on the radio, and the 60s was LOADED with great girl groups using the "Wall of Sound" introduced by Phil Spector.

[@victorcowboywest]

Doo-wop is evolution of jazz and blues, it's characteristics by simple syllables, beats, and lyrics often features a cappella and vocals harmonies full swing-like beats in songs. Most of these groups were from 50's-60's. The Chiffons girl group from the Bronx in 1960. They were also known as 'The Four Pennies'.( The Andrews Sisters were a sister act from the (jazz) boogie-woogie, swing eras.)

You guys are dope love your reactions. I would love love love love love love love to see you react to Elvis Presley suspicious minds live in Las Vegas 1970 iconic and right up your alley. This will show you another side to EP and continue your journey which is very very cool. Again love your reaction to this and your channel. This song is very catchy

[@kimbercole2657]

I think these songs are great for kids to listen to because of the uplifting sound and dance ability, i was a kid in the 70's and loved singing and dancing to these albums of my parents!!! great memories for me

[@ProdigyBowlersTour]

Not all ‘60s music was this care-free. There were some very serious songs that took on some tough subjects. Check out Barry McGuire (formerly of the New Christy Minstrels) singing “Eve of Destruction.” A number one hit from 1965. Still as relevant today as it was 56 years ago.

[@MichaelSeymourmjsm]

50's and early 60's is the happiest music, I call it smile music, and yes makes you want to smile and move.

[@andrewcormier529]

The minute I hear that piano intro I truly go back to 64 but I remember being at our camp on the lake in maine I was 5 and all my brothers and sisters and cousins aunts uncles having a blast and living our lifes ..my hair stands up on this song and a wide smile and even a tear but such a time we may never see again good reaction guys.

[@allieren]

Andrews Sisters were 40s and were considered swing :) This is one of my fave 60s girl group songs and, as everyone has mentioned, was written by Carole King who is an amazing artist in her own right. Tossing my hat in the ring for her song “It’s Too Late.”

[@patprescott1818]

Great song and group another one is The Shirelles. Will you still love me tomorrow ✌❤

[@TheToddtw]

It makes my heart happy to see how much you guys appreciate this amazing group.

[@TooDarnSoulful]

Their "sweet talking guy" was superb !

[@sarablack2547]

Chiffon is a light weight sheer fabric that usually gets used in special occasion dresses like weddings.hope that helps you remember the right pronunciation.

[@caravan5557]

60s girl groups so good...always thought this was a blend of doowop and r&b..

[@samolevski1119]

Female Friday suggestions - Etta James singing I'd Rather Go Blind, thought by many to be the definitive version She has a live version Montreux 1975 you need to watch, where she looks off her head on something, but the power and emotion is incredible Yvonne Fair with It Should Have Been Me

[@davidgollop2807]

written by Carole King !

[@brentcox7772]

Love this song!🤘🔥

[@kenpaden]

Great reaction!! Please react again to the Pointer Sisters, with bangers like HES SO SHY, or SLOW HAND, or FIRE, AUTOMATIC

[@Diva369]

"I'm So Excited"

[@cleonmagabeefy8473]

The Shirelles!!!! Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow

[@davidpost428]

Try "Da Doo Ron Ron" by the Ronettes ! Similarly great sound.

[@827dusty]

This song sounds like it could be the theme song for a sit-com like Lavern& Shirley or something. I've known this song for almost 60 yrs now. It's so upbeat and positive. We need more of this music these days.

[@victorduffany7723]

Yes, it is all the history of America and music. I find it fun to sit back and really enjoy the evolution. Some is better now but some is not so good. But it is a lesson music.

[@miamidolphinsfan]

LOVE LOVE LOVE this song !!! One of my favorites

[@mamamac7069]

One of my favorite old girl group songs is And Then He Kissed Me by The Crystal's.

[@SusanBishop555]

Minnie Riperton singing Loving You...LIVE 1975 is great!

[@sazguest]

Minnie Riperton’s voice is insane! I hope they give her a listen one female Friday. Les Fleurs is also a beautiful hippy vibes song.
