      My favourite of course is this group and Little Anthony if you can still sing it in the same original key then the song is truly yours again this is a very much covered 60s song Cilla Black and Petula Clark giving it their magic, a truly timeless song.

  • @daveconleyportfolio5192
    @daveconleyportfolio5192 Před 6 lety +26

    The first oldies revival concerts were in the early 70s, and even then a lot of groups couldn't cut it anymore. But for five decades AFTER that, Anthony and the Imperials defied time... not only staying in good voice, but committing emotionally to the songs. They never mailed it in.

    Often wondered how this song could be approached in a live setting.
    The band did a wonderful job with the song -- A song (by the way) that has such a rich orchestration in the original.
    -->Amazing how the little 'kick' by the drummer during the first 'chorus' just added
    and moved the band.
    Anthony's voice still sounded quite 'pitch perfect'.....
