I was born in 1959, and this is the kind of music I grew up on, not only better music, better times, glad I got to enjoy that buzzing Frisch's with my friends without worry from bullet spray...this is a hard tune to get out of you head when you hear it.
One of my best buddies would play this song all the time on the juke box. He died two years ago from cancer. He was a Marine stationed at Camp Lejeune in the 70's when their water was tainted with carcinogens. This song brings back memories of Dan. RIP.
My daughter's husband was a marine stationed there at one time and when my wife and I came to visit them on base, we were told not to drink the water....
Energy is never destroyed only transformed. Consciousness is eternal. Friends and family are always around us even after they pass. Or else what meaning would there be to life if everything ended when physical life expired?...
OMG I haven't heard this song in years it reminds me of my sister playing the 45 over and over!!!! I was 7 and she was 17. she was in a car wreck in 93.I cry when I hear it
Brian Hyland was born in Queens, New York City on November 12, 1943, therefore he is celebrating his 77th birthday today November 12, 2020. He is an American pop singer and instrumentalist who was particularly successful during the early 1960s. He continued recording into the 1970s. Allmusic journalist Jason Ankeny says "Hyland's puppy-love pop virtually defined the sound and sensibility of bubblegum during the pre-Beatles era." Although his status as a teen idol faded, he went on to release several country-influenced albums and had additional chart hits later in his career.
10 too. I am amazed at how young I was and appreciated good RocknRoll. I always thought that I was 12-13. I think my very groovy Aunt influenced me. But she only listened to AM rock. Then FM became available and I learned what great Rock was.
In 1970 I was 14yrs. old. I was madly in love with this cute and adorable girl named Nancy Malin. We grew up in Littleton,Ma. She was my Gypsy Woman and I never told her. I was just to damn shy. I will always love this song and it will always remind me of Nancy. In Oct. 2022,--53 years later I looked her up, rode my Harley 1.5 hrs. to her house in NH and said Hi to her. I might of scared her at first. She said I was an infamous Hells Angel from Ma. She was even more shocked when I told her how much I adored her when we were young! She is still my Gypsy Woman only now she knows it!! The smile gave it away! I guess you could say "mission accomplished"! Jeff Dusti Shirley,Ma. age almost 67
@@xSTARR999 Well, Thank you for the nice reply! Just look for the other Gypsy Woman video. It,s on You Tube, you can,t miss it. I did a much better version and replied to several people! You will get a good laugh. Thank you again, Jeff Dusti
I love this song! Definitely a classic! I grew up around this kind of music because my parents played it all of the time! I just turned 38! Thanks mom and dad for introducing me to such great music!
Saw Brian live in my Hometown of Manchester UK last Sunday. He still has the voice and he sang Gypsy Woman a song written by the late Curtis Mayfield back in 1961 . Brian recorded it a decade later. Great song.
I'm also 64, it's first song on my playlist. Love the way he closes his eyes to certain lyrics. Back when a singer was real. Glad I lived 60's, 70's, people were real.
Yes Curtis and the Impression,s Bob Marley and the Wailers where very influenced buy them . listen to early wailers and you will here many of same harmonies !!!
Didn't think I could love this song anymore than the first time I heard it when I was just a teenager. LOVE it even more....I have it on repeat and can't stop listening to it.
I was 15 when this was on my transistor radio. I listened to WLS the windy city Chicago or on weekends it might be KOMA Oklahoma City. I loved this song. Michael Jackson and the Jackson 5 had just started singing, they were too young for me, after all I was 15 Michael was about 9. ha ha Saw Brian Hyland at Branson, Missouri about 6 years ago he still sounds great. Wonderful memories.
@Karen Tidwell I, too, listened to WLS as a kid growing up in the sixties & seventies ... but across the lake, in Michigan, between South Haven & Holland. You must remember DJ Larry Lujack, too!
OMG, This song just brought me to tears,😢 it just touches me so much. I too cannot get it out of my head. I love his voice n the words he sings about the gypsy woman. It reminds me of a Friend I had in elementary school, ❤️ I will never 4get her. GOD BLESS her wherever she is 2day, ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SONG 🎵 ❤️ 🙏
The 60s in the early 70s man with great times for music I really dug highland he was a good singer and the song he knocks it right out of the ballpark baby where did the time go over the music today just one big amazing shit storm
Great arrangement of a wonderful song. Pensive beginning with night time depth and flickering fire light illuminating into strong melody stirrings. Underrated.
There would not have been an America without the greatest generation WW2 Veterans. I have many relatives who have served WW1 , WW2 , Korea , & Vietnam . I’m a veteran myself. If we didn’t have freedom there wouldn’t be wonderful music like this!!!
Great song,even today! Back in 1970 I was a 15 year old listening to all these hip songs,Now I'm 56 years young and they all still make me smile:) Thanks!!!!!
+BlankUberEverybody Isn't that true I graduated in 1975. DJed at our local roller rink. Still a mobal DJ today at age 58. Very hard to find music for Brian Hyland.
only1barbi Nah, man, that little pud wacker has his room in the crawl space under his gramma's trailer-he has to stay down there most of the time cuz granny gotz to do bizness with her gentlemen friends so she can pay the rent.
I heard this for the first time when I was spending the night with a friend in Junior high, all along while she was kissing a new boyfriend. That excited me as much as this song playing at the same time. That was some 40 yrs ago. still one of my favorites
Never gets tiring. I grew up in 70's and remember....I'm 53 now. My dad use to sing it to me because I'm half Hungarian on my mom's side. My Great parents were actual gypsies that traveled in caravan all throughout Hungary.
Was 10 years old then... oh my, still Mesmerized and believing love can be just this simple in the complexities of life... God Gave a beautiful gift... love and music.
Love this Song, I danced on Skates to this Song When I was Fourteen,....Oh how I Loved those Day’s❤️❤️❤️That was the Best day’s Of My LIFE😃❤️❤️❤️ Texas Lady😃

Still listening and enjoying this song in 2023☺️ I remember when it first came out. Just got out of the service.

What a voice. He sounds like he is heartbroken.
Yes, he sounds like he has no chance with the gypsy woman.
@@Araconox
No, we none of us did. It's a song of longing.
Heartfelt
Maybe they didn't pay him enuff
Ah! Yes! That is familiar. Have not we all been there playing the love game?
Hard to believe that 10 years earlier Brian Hyland sang 'It was teenie weenie polkadot bikini."
He redeemed himself with this song :)
I played this record over and over and over and over and over and over....
Marilyn Demrow Marilyn, I love this song too,
Marilyn Demrow i love super great song from the seventies super hit
Me too. And I'm in my 60's now. Good times. Wonderful music from my era.
Same as me.. reminds me of the golden times in music filem and football.
So am I...
I am 46 and today this song popped in my head and would not get out. I played it several times in a row. A classic.
OMG I haven't heard this song in years it reminds me of my sister playing the 45 over and over!!!! I was 7 and she was 17. she was in a car wreck in 93.I cry when I hear it

This is one of those songs you never get tired of listening to it
Possibly one of the greatest 'remakes' of a popular song that ever existed....
Brian Hyland with chops that prove why this was a 1970 Rock Radio piledriver!🎸🎹🎤❤B.W.

A real classic in the production and the arrangement. His voice and that song really was magic and lasts until today. Audiences love to hear it
produced and arrangement by the one and only Del Shannon , class!!!!!
Funny, my exact words I just commented 🤣 Love his voice n the words GOD BLESS 🙏
@@chazmork8265 thank you, I was wondering if it was the Wrecking Crew. Timeless Classic.
Fantastic rendition of a Curtis Mayfield classic. Brian had a lot of talent.

This song is pure magic from a magical music time . I was a teenager . Perfect age to experience this
Remember going into the living room and finding my mum in tears playing this song

Saw Brian live in my Hometown of Manchester UK last Sunday. He still has the voice and he sang Gypsy Woman a song written by the late Curtis Mayfield back in 1961 . Brian recorded it a decade later. Great song.
