Now you know why most older aged people don't like or understand the music of today. The artist of yesteryear needed talent as there was no computer or autotune to enhance their voices
Listen ing to todays rock music, is llke getting root canal!
Spot on Debi 🌹
There is nothing better ❤️👍
I I'm so glad to hear positive comments on The skyliners music. They were a group from my hometown, Pittsburgh pennsylvania, and they were very big there. But the assessment of this I swear is right on
Listen to their "Since I Don't Have You" and the last high note by Janet Vogel---fantastic!!!! They are one of the great vocal groups of all time!!!
I have been pleasantly infected with that "earworm" many times over the many decades.
Jimmy Beaumont had one of the greatest and most beautiful voice ever. This is as good as Since I Don't Have You. Janet Vogel came in big guns with her fantastic falsetto in both songs. RIP to both Jim and Janet!!
I had Donna Groom but you may be right. Janet Vogel was the first.
They just don’t make love songs like this anymore. Thank you for the reminder of when love was what music was all about.
I am just an old white guy that loves you both. Thank you for keeping Doo Wop alive. I was in the 7th grade when this song and "Since i Don`t Have You" were popular. I love when you play songs from that era and give them the respect they deserve. I grew up in Pittsburgh and the Skyliners were a local group. The Skyliners used to play all of the Pittsburgh Clubs and performed as recently as a few years ago. The lead singer was Jimmy Beaumont and his sterling voice remained just as pure in his 70`s. Unfortunately Jimmy passed away a few short years ago. Now Jimmy, with that Heavenly voice, performs for Jesus. Thanks again
It doesnt get any better than 50's 60's and 70's
So right!! Best Classics from 50s to 60s. Thanks for the video reactions!!
OKY, your at a school dance, rapped in arms with your best crush, the lights are low, and you start to melt like butter to the sky liners This i swear is true! welcome back to the 60s. Thats great music, thats true love!
She's singing throughout the entire song -- in the harmony -- then at the end goes high soprano. Her name was Janet Vogel. She took her life in 1980. There's a movie about her.
She was only 17❤️
Our Pittsburgh group❤️
Yes! Do you know how long we've been wishing to "bring this music back"? The music industry is run for its young fans, and today they have their own music, if you want to call it that.
I was 15 years old when that song came out. I'm 78 years old now, it has been one of my favorite songs of all times. It's on my playlist l listen to it EVERY DAY !! CHECK OUT the Drifters, Powerful Powerful. Hail to the Fifties, bring back the GOOD MUSIC we need it !!
Thank you for listening to this beautiful song. 💖💥💫💖♥️
Janet Vogel's voice was backround. She is the falsetto at the end. perfect pitch even at that high register.
The Skyliners are an American doo-wop group form the 50's-60's. They are best known for their 1959 hit "Since I Don't Have You". But they had other good songs such as "Pennies From Heaven", "It Happened Today", "Close Your Eyes", "Comes Love", "This I Swear", "Where Have They Gone?" etc.
Absolutely right sir
Google search ahh comment
This music takes me back to the greatest times in my life. I'm so happy that you are enjoying this great music of those times! We have to bring back this music that had so much meaning to one another....
The human voice is the greatest instrument when it’s done right 👍😊
I've always loved it, Rock n Roll music. Doowop Rock n Roll beautiful, it's the most to romance a lovely lady to those gorgeous love songs.
This song was played for years by DJ s once it came out. My home town had an oldies station and they played all the old great romantic songs every Friday and Saturday for date night. Who didn t love hearing this type song with their beautiful date?
Need to bring that back!
I am truly blessed because I was born in the mid 50's and my older brother use to take me for rides in his car and this is the music that played on his radio. I got my kids into this music and I hope that when the day comes they will show this type of music to their kids. This is truly timeless and all before auto tune and computers just pure talent .
This song creates an almost religious experience and especially the high notes at the very end.
all I can say is Friday Night Dances
Jimmy beaumont was 18 when he recorded this and sadly passed away a few years ago and janet vogel committed suicide very sad but they left us with an outstanding memory
Just as good as Since I don't Have You. Jimmy Beaumont had one of the most beautiful voices ever similar to Bobby Hatfield of R.Bros. Janet Vogel did the high notes in both songs. Love this group!!!
They were similar to the legendary "Platters." With one woman and four men. Their styles were also the same. This song "This I Swear" came out in 1959. It charted on Billboard at #26 and did better at #20 on R&B Charts. They had a great sound. Awesome!
Things went wrong when the money became more important than the music. It wouldn't bother me if this music style made a big comeback.
Miss dancing to this beautiful old music.
My man Shawn!! You got the point!! Thank you for the reaction!
Larry Graham - One In A Million You
LOVE your show! So much truth in wondering where the fork in the road was. Positivity can, and will, put us back on the righteous path.
Yesss... Please react to this song... Larry Graham is the founder of the band: "Graham Central Station" although they mainly played "Funk" music. He also has a beautiful voice beside playing Bass Guitar. This is one of my favorite love songs. Thank you for your wonderful reactions and listening to all the various genres...
@@m.frazier9952 Thanks for the Graham Central Station info. Maybe that can spin off into George Clinton / Funkadelic / Parliament Funkadelic.
And please bring some My Girl - The Temptations (1964) (HD Quality)
Shawn and Mel, I love your reaction. It is real feeling.
This song and Jimmy's voice are so fire and his runs are so simple but impactive, that it breaches, cross, and incorporate all color lines. How can you not thumbs up this?
By the way, this kind music is fantastic played on a stereo system & filling the house up with beautiful sounds.
nothing better than this song a the time. It makes me so sentimental and man do cry!
Yes. It’s ok. We did go wrong. And yes. We need to get back to this music and culture that created it. Poodle skirts, sock hops, and malt shops. Morals. Clean honest feeling music.
And segregation, what fun!
boyz to men are also an excellent choice for the 90s
Smooth!!! You will notice that many songs in this period hsve the piano as one of the primary lead instruments but string arrangements are also prominent. Background music was very beautiful in this era.
“I Only Have Eyes for You” by The Flamingos is a song that I know you will love!! I wasn’t born until the 70s, but it’s tied for my all time favorite song! That’s how amazingly beautiful it is!! 💁🏻♀️
Yes baby that was Janet Vogel at the end hitting those high notes. Another great Skyliner song. Jimmy Beaumont was another one with a great voice and so distinctive you knew it was him. You might want to hear Janet singing “I Can Dream Can I,” you’ll love it.
Listening to this in the back seat of your 59 Chevy Convertible, this song was responsible for most of the Baby Boomer's being here😍
The girl is singing throughout the entire song. She's at the top of the three-part harmony when not doing her soprano high C notes. Her name was Janet Vogel and a movie was made several years ago about her tragic life
This one is my fav song This I Swear
Great channel guys! There is nothing better than slow dancing to a beautiful song like this with your best girl. We’ve lost that. Thank you for bringing it back today.
CLASSIC DOO WOP -----------REAL HARMONY, NOTHING FAKE.
I love all the oldies you guys react to. My Mom and Dad brought us up listening to these awesome songs.
The strongest lyrics ever guys. "My love for you will last,....till time itself is through"...."my heart is yours my dear, there will be no one new"...so glad you guys are loving this music (and it is so clear you love each other)..:) Good music is good music. You will know it when you hear it, no matter when it was recorded. Doc
SPRING OF '60, i WAS 13 Y/O, IN 8TH GRADE. RIP, Jimmy Beaumont , Janet Vogel , and all other Skyliners who have passed. ---------------------MJL, 76 y/o
Shawn & Mel, I have heard both songs by Jimmy Beaumont and The Skyliners, "This I Swear" and "Since I Don't Have You" and they are both great and thanks for sharing these fantastic songs from the past with us. ❤👍👍
It's those little guitar fills on the second verse that tugs the heart. ❤ Jimmy and Janet's voice contrasting were out of this world amazing.
You guys are listening to the best of my era and I can guarantee you there is nothing close to this in the last 40 years this era along with the motown era was the greatest in musical history it was a miracle what Barry Gordie did with motown and what these groups like the skyliners and so many others were able to put together thank God I came from that time.
I can see how I’m love this couple is ❤️✊🏾
Actually, as I recall, this is from early, 1960 ----------in the photo, 17 y/o Jimmy Beaumont is to the LEFT of 16 y/o Janet Vogel ; Jimmy sang lead, Janet was a pure Soprano, & yes, that's her voice hitting that high C , at the very end. They were from Pittsburgh PA, & from 2 local groups, they came together, recorded in NYC with Lenny Martin's 21 piece orchestra, which included, 10 stings : 6 violin, 2 cello, & 2 viola . In Denver, on 1630 AM, KOSI, this song was in the Top 10, for weeks & weeks , & became THE #1 wedding -dance song of my generation ! ----------MJL, 75 y/o
Love how you guys found the SKYLINERS!!- Big Pittsburgh group
Love it! Reminds me of my wife! This I Swear for her I care! Jimmy Beaumont and the Skyliners along with the high pitched lady (Donna Groom) are just too much!
I'm sure through your journey you both realize why we fell in love with songs/music back then. Also
we havent forgotten them or the lyrics. I was around 7 or 8, so growing up with the good music became the soundtrack of our lives which includes the 60' & 70's.
Picture yourself sitting in the back seat listening to this with your girl, but first, turn the fan on-it helps to keep the car windows from fogging up! Now you need to hear a bit of 60's doo wop-try the Duprees "Have You Heard" and "You Belong to Me"
I didn't need to picture it happening, it did! Ahahaha 😀😍😘
❤🎶
great song "since i dont have you" by them is there best. the flamingos "i only have eyes for you" for reaction ; )
The ladies voice at the end is the late Janet Vogel.
This is my all time favorite song by this group. It makes me ugly cry most of the time. I told my late husband this was a song that reminded me of us, but he just laughed it off. He wasn't into music like I was.
-Shows how the resurgence of harmonizing today, back thru the 90s 80s & 70s was deeply inspired directly & indirectly by the real nice sounds of the 60s & 1950s doowop harmony group sounds from those years. A lot of younger people today would be surprised how nice it really was. From back before studio synthisizers & auto tune could make a bad singer sound good.
I have loved this song for so many years !!! To have a love like that is precious ❤
Chicos presentadores de esta pajina me gustacomo ustedes disfrutan alo maximo esas joyas de ayer lo viven lo sienten que bello
They were fantastic. Out of Pittsburgh, PA. Listen to Since I Don’t Have You..
Same vintage, 1958 maybe, "Who Wrote The Book of Love?", The Monotones.
The DooWops what can I say.... well they are about " Love & Passion " so many ballads out there representing these two words
Greatest lead singer Jimmy Beaumont, may he rest in peace. Such beautiful harmony.
Old school romance here. No Tinder or any internet, no hooking up, no WAP, no booty calls. Guys had to work hard to romance a girl back then.
One of my favorite groups. Song written by : JAMES BEAUMONT and JOSEPH ROCK
THEY SURE WERE SMOOOOTH AS SMOOOOTH CAN GET. THE LADY CAN SURE MAKE A ENDING GREAT.
Come on now guys. Get up and slow dance to this....
Janet Vogel and Donna Groom were the highest of the high end on a song.
That's my friends family , from McKeesport,Pa, outside of Pittsburgh, cool as shit yea
My favorite oldie
Best ever, great music great times 😅
The chord progression in "This I Swear" is similar to "Since I Don't Have You". Now this is Doo Whop at its best and the Skyliners mastered it!! Thanks for revisiting the great Skyliners!
I would say that the greatest moment in Doo-Wop history is the 1961 hit record "My True Story" by The Jive Five BUT how long will it take ANYBODY to react to it?
I always loved Them in concert!
Another group that is in the same mood Ruby and The Romantics from the early 1960's,check them out.
Wow!
Janet Vogel’s highs were the best of the best, her finale on this track is haunting and unparalleled!!!!
As a boomer from Pittsburgh, the home of the Skyliners, this brings back great memories. I love that they resonate with the younger generation. I agree with the lady about keeping their music alive. And yes, they ruled slow dancing!
Jimmy Belmont at his best RIP Jimmy you were one of a kind!! I would like to thank my parents for raising me on great Doo Wop and awesome oldies music.
That whole album of the skyliners is great!
This i swear is like pure nature~~and harmoney i love this my lips this
I always thought this would be the best first dance at a wedding.
On the internet under Pittsburgh Music History I found the following very sad details about the tragic ending of the beautiful female singer Janet Vogel: "Unbeknownst to her band mates Janet's life at home was unhappy. She was trapped in a tumultuous marriage and suffered from depression. Janet and her husband Kerry Rapp clashed over her career. Kerry, an ex-Marine and tough street-wise Pittsburgh cop, was described by his son Gavin as selfish, overbearing, and controlling. Janet was emotionally fragile and may have suffered from bipolar disorder. She sank into a deep depression that worsened over the years. Deeply in despair she wrote notes on the insides of dresser drawers such as 'Help me. I can't live like this. I can't take this" according to her son Gavin Rapp.
On February 21, 1980 Janet was to receive an award recognizing her achievements with the Skyliners. She packed up her car with Skyliners memorabilia to take to the awards ceremony. But she never made it out the garage. Depression overtook her. She committed suicide by carbon monoxide poisoning. Janet was 37 years old. She left behind three young children."
A very sad ending for a wonderful singer ... Depression is a terrible thing... R.I.P. Janet Vogel..
@@m.frazier9952 I agree and the mistreatment she suffered at the hands of her husband (according to the son) was even more terrible.
The best music era
