The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. The Ed Sullivan Show is well known for bringing rock n' roll music to the forefront of American culture through acts like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. It also frequently featured stars of Motown such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder and The Jackson 5. The Ed Sullivan Show was one of the only places on American television where such a wide variety of popular culture was showcased and its legacy lives on to this day.

the fact she sounds better live than on her recording of this song is unreal
well this was probably pre-recorded N she lip-synced but she was still amazing
@@alexisturner8102 nah u can see her lips and it doesnt look like shes lip singing
@@ccoolgru well they practiced heavy back then but maybe maybe not haha
You'd be surprised how many artists out there can actually really sing and should be considered performers and not just singers. The industry standard is to retouch everything, which sort of devalues people who have real skill. I wish more people were recognized as singers for their singing and performing and not just what they can do after a million takes in a studio and post production!!
@@alexisturner8102 Actually it was a rule on the Ed Sullivan show that you have to sing live back then, same for Shindig and Hullaballoo
She was SEVENTEEN in this performance. Absolutely incredible.
Wait? What? I thought she was in her 20's, maybe 30's
Wow people looks much more mature back in the days
omg i thought she was in her 30s
@@valelaval4986 I don’t think people look more mature, but the hairstyles and sense of style that we associate with older people happened to be hip when they were young, they just never stopped wearing those clothes
@@valnerei9067 the true , I didn’t think of that tbh
2024 and im still here. Also can we talk about the fact the camera quality is just awesome.
CZcams is truly a Time Machine. I feel like I’m in the past watching this video.
The line "but hes supposed to be mine" sounds so childish and innocent. Its my favorite line
IKR LIKE ITS SO INNOCENT AND YET SO DARK
I think she was talking about Judy
@@jakefromstatefarm3179 yeah..
@@ckydafm Actually, she didn’t write the song. I think she didn’t even know she was lesbian at that time
@@Ap-kx4og wait she didn’t write the song???!?
"and i cry if i want to" her face while singing this: 😁
This was her very first televised performance, and she was only 17 at the time.
In the 2001 documentary, she said that she was very nervous and about being terrified because she was inexperienced about performing in front of a lot of people. She said that she thought she threw up for almost 3 months before she did this performance.
I think she did a great job.
There was a lot of expectations because she was the most popular singer at the time after It's My Party became #1 in both the Billboard and R&B charts.
She had to smile tho
@@fomalhauto thankyou, this is so interesting to read!!
I'm the 1k like lma
Why you mad he's be mad at the cat
I never realized how pretty she was. Natural talent, great voice, great stage prescense. An american original. Wow how much the recording industry has gone down the toilet since then. I remember listening to her on cklw in detroit on a transistor radio. She was a hit.
She was Swedish and came over when she was 16 or 17.
@robertbennett848 nonsense, born in Brooklyn, and lived in New Jersey, she was 16 when this was released.
@@dodgysai666 Thats what I thought, that she was originally from NY.
Wrong! Google her and right off the top it says she is a Swedish - American actress.@@dodgysai666
@@dodgysai666 I was talking about Ann Margret.
She was an amazing woman !!! One of my favorites !!! She was so beautiful and talented !!!
She was a very classy and talented woman I believe she was only 17 years old in this video
She was. She don’t even look 17. Shocking!
They were really raised like adults back then, I mean look at the high school photos of that time, they look like little adults
Probably why Johnny didn't want her, he was 18, she was underaged
@@tylerdurden4 she’s a lesbian lol
@@tylerdurden4 she’s lesbian
The fact that this song is so boppy and cheerful sounding, but it’s actually about her boyfriend asking out another girl during her birthday party. Like damn girl I would cry too
@@shyrusackerman1384 I know it’s not about Lesley herself, I meant the subject of the song
@@jackandthebeanstalk4253 I don't think the guy was her boyfriend, he was just the boy she was in love with, but she just found out he was with Judy at her party because of the ring and the fact that they left the party together, because if he was her boyfriend she would not be left wanting the moment he breaks up with Judy to get her shot with him.

@@warrobotsstriker3667 I don't know, she never said that he is her boyfriend
@@karentorresalfaro3371 *we will never know*
The thing that i love about song in 60s and 90s is that you can hear the lyrics clearly
Something about the way she smiles while she sings is captivating
She looks just stunningly beautiful here..
She sure is 💗
I agree, I love how she looks in her first couple of years performing, then she got that nose job and after that just looked like a common cheerleader type.
No
Susan Kennedy She looked beautiful with her nose, a natural beauty - with the wrong kinda possibilities she must have gotten pressured into having the nose job (which I didn’t knew about!) we love her anyway! For her voice and talent!
@@LightnessOfTheLife how would you even know she was pressured
How is her voice so much clearer here than in the official recording??? Man I love this
In the recording it’s a double recording, so it’s her singing the song twice in the same key overlapped with each other, a technique her producer Quincey Jones perfected in the late 50s early 60s. It really has a 60s feel, and I feel Lesley’s voice was perfect for it.
@@millers3888 Ooh, I was wondering about that cuz the original recording sounded overlapped sometimes. I prefer the clearer live version but that's interesting! Thanks for the info :)
Shitty producers lol
@@millers3888 so is she lip syncing?
@@wisecatlady No this is live. For confirmation watch in the beginning for her finger snapping. You can hear them if you listen closely. She had a terrific voice.
17 year old girl watching another 17 year old girl, both from completely different worlds yet so relatable
I love the woah-ah-woah at 2:10 such talent.
Her eyes were mesmerising even in black and white! Love listening to her songs a lot. Can't help not to feel joy every single time!
No comments?
Agreed, she has a sparkle in her eyes even in black and white 😊
She was so beautiful and such an awesome person and she deserves way more recognition
Yeah her eyes are ethereal
@@celiap4122 I love what the legendary soul-singer Martha Reeves said in her intro for Lesley Gore: ''...how about a nice round of applause for a wonderful, beautiful lady with DANCING EYES, my girlfriend, Ms. Lesley Gore.'' And Lesley Gore replied: ''Was she great. Was she fabulous. Martha Reeves. Thank you, baby.'' :)
PS: Omg 5.2K likes. Last time I checked it was only abt 600 and by then, I was already blown away. Not that Iikes really matter to me, but it's truly fantastic seeing this much love for Lesley Gore. :)
It’s great that this song is getting popular again, Lesley was a very talented and an amazing artist. Not to mention that all of her songs are absolutely great :)
YESYES

Yessssss
This song is not hers tho, the original is in swedish
@@Don_edgar_corleone Really I didn't know that?? Could you link the video if you have time to find it?
Anyone 2024?
for people who think this song is about her liking Judy:
It's a real story and It's not hers, the song is a semi-true story based on one of the co-writers’ daughter’s birthday parties. Seymour Gottlieb's daughter's name is judy, his daughter is straight and her boyfriend cheated on her on her birthday.
That story is not about Lesley being secretly lesbian, because It's not her story.
who said its about her being lesbian? the song clearly says she has/had a boyfriend and Judy was the other woman
@@cloudyxsxies583a lot of people
@@cloudyxsxies583so because you didn’t know she had married a woman later on in life and people were thinking that this was a secret coming out message or something but it’s really just a song
Thanks bro. I appreciate you correcting this.
Yuck.
RIP Leslie. She was a knockout, and what a voice.
Singing live,what a concept.👍
I remember this performance on Ed Sullivan I'm 68 year's old and our family when I was a kid never would miss an Ed Sullivan Show
@@songwriterfortruth4601 My family always watched Sullivan too. I'm 54, so I don't remember much from those days. I was only 5 when he was cancelled.
She was my heartthrob when I was young .♥️
@Larry W Her beautiful eyes!!
She died in 2015, I wish she got to see her song become so popular again after so many years (was #1 in '63) this is an iconic masterpiece.
It wasn’t her sing she just sang what she was given but she would still be happy cause she’s singing it
"She died in 2015..." You would cry too if it happened to you.
Oh, I didn't know. Thanks for sharing.
At the Mel create the pity party same day to
I cried
Her songs "I struck a match", "time to go", "that's the way the ball bounces" and "something wonderful" are criminally underrated‼️‼️
you’ve got good taste Christopher.
Singers were built different back then. They always killed their live performances
Many of the live performances in the 50s and until the mid 60s were pre recorded due to them not having the technology (they did technically but it took so much time to set up and was very difficult). In the late 60s they eventually just started using backing tracks so the singers could sing along so it wasn’t as awkward.
I do think singers then had far more talent as you had to be amazing to even get discovered in the first place but yeah the live performance probably might’ve not always been so flawless if they were actually live if that makes sense?
she had a crush on judy, that’s what this song is hiddenly about. she was married to a woman for over thirty years and needed to be closeted because of the culture of america at the time
you can understand the emotion in her eyes so much more after knowing this
But she says “he’s suppose to be mine” she’s talking about Johnny there
@@mrmister4795 yes that’s because she was closeted when this sing came out, but she was talking about a girl in her mind, if that makes sense?
@@mrmister4795 she was closeted she had to put jhonny on that spot so no one would be suspicious about her
she didn't write the song
Just look at her.. The charisma she holds, the magic her voice holds.. She is literally a legend....

Such a special talent.
Charisma! 100%
She had such a clean gorgeous STRONG voice! Great range too! Also quite beautiful!
Okay, is no one going to talk about the FACT that she is soooooooooooo stunning and gorgeousssss
love how Melanie incorporated that small verse into Pity Party, its actually lovely to see where some of her inspiration comes from
Finally someone said that omg
I just found out that part from pity party was inspired from here dang now I have two bops to listen to 😍
Yeah that song was my first experience with the line. I didn’t even know it was sampled 😅
@@marquistf1996 same! Found this out like three days ago.
She sampled the actual music as well, it's fantastic. As well as the plot for Pacify Her being the same as She's a Fool
how can i feel nostalgic to this songs if i don't even was born in era ??
Certain specific chords that evoke nostalgia 🌠💫 Manily the maj7's

Same I feel nostalgic to this song even tho I wasn’t born a long time go
Yall probably reincarnated lol
its called anemoia, for some reason, when i listen to california dreamin or i was only 19, i get vietnam flashbacks when im 10 fucking years old from the middle east
Just a pre-teen boy in those days. Had a crush on all the female singers of that era even though my taste was with the British invasion. Remember stuff like this on my AM transistor radio and the fact my sister's and mom listened to Leslie and the rest. Kinda like I am hard rock/metal guy but in secret behind closed doors admitting you like some of Abba's stuff....girls again 😁. Such a special time compared to the world now. Just read where Leslie was only 17 in this vid.....wow....R I P. to Leslie and my childhood.....memories for sure
Lesley was an excellent business woman, she owned her publishing and was able to make a nice living unlike many artists in those days.
Quincy jones produced this no.1 hit
Colonel Tom Parker took half of Elvis' money
Sorry, unfortunately none of the above is true. Was taken advantage of by Mercury Records, etc.
@@marknewcomedy1 Thats right, and she was one of the lucky ones, she said herself
What? Maybe early on, but Leslie passed away with $50k to her name. "“I haven't really taken care of myself financially and that's one of the things I regret most.”
"You would cry too if it happened to you". That line will hit you hard if you ever went through a heartbreak before. The song is simply soulful.

Oh it hit hard :/

Im from leon gto Mexico listening and it feels like I’m a reincarnated soul that live in those day in the USA . It comes to my mind things that happened decades ago
This indeed was live. That girl could sing.
With a live house band and house singers. What a treat. Nice clean piece of black and white tape, too.
Was it really though? Where’s the mic?
@@Tupapinati The Mic is above head and the orchestra at floor level , with the background singers over to the right. I've seen them pan out over the audience and then back over the stage. That's the best description I can give. But its live.
@@Tupapinati The boom mic would have been just above her head. This is live all the way even the house orchestra and backup singers.
i have to say, from someone who used to listen to melanie a lot, both of these songs, lesleys and “pity party” are both very beautifully sung and well written with flawless meanings.
she got the chorus from this song

To the people saying she was secretly singing about Judy. She wasn’t. She didn’t write the song. She just sang what she was given.
Walter Gold, John Gluck Jr., Herb Weiner, and Seymour Gottlieb wrote the song.

Y’all this song isn’t gay, she stated in an interview she didn’t realize her sexuality until her early 20s. She’s only 17 in this video.
yknow people can have feelings before realizations
@@spitgorge2021 she did not write the song
@@spitgorge2021 that's very true, but she didn't write this song. most artists in this era didn't write their songs. even if she did write her songs, she would've had to write them from the perspective of a straight person anyway.
@@xtonibx5770 exactly! Not to mention back then being gay wasn’t normalized and was frowned upon, so even though she was lesbian she probably was in denial because she felt something was wrong with her.
Dosent matter anyway
She was so beautiful. I love the line “you would cry too if it happened to you”
When she was attending Sarah Lawrence College in Bronxville, NY I was in high school and worked at Steinman’s drug store in town and had the pleasure to serve Leslie on a couple of occasions…quite a memory for me!
Any specific memory related to that? A comment she said etc?
It’s so sweet how she smiles through the song and gives little smiles after each line ☺️ its really fun to listen to older songs and experience the different style of them!
That’s a good singer
For real, no one can sing with such grace anymore
Quincy jones the legendary producer produced her songs 60 years ago!
Old songs feel true. The songs we have now is ok. But nothing beats old music like this
it's not sweet when you're made to do it. it was funny this went out of vogue in the 70s but other countries kind of lag behind, for example abba was still doing this when they got famous in the late 70s. this was also still done into the late 80s in japan and is even done today sometimes. it's wild how exported american and western culture got
Imagine if she decided to change the lyrics into "when she's supposed to be mine" AAAAAAAA
no
@@chumbucket1280 she's lesbian so I mean...
YES
I think we’re moots 😭
like on tiktok lmao 😭🏃♀️
My great great grandmother has always listened to her and she is still listening sometimes. I can say that she is the only one who has reached my grandmother's heart.
She was born in 1911 and still lives at 111, outlived 4 monarchs, World War I, World War II and lived to see 10 Popes in her lifetime.
She feels very good and has all the comfort in the world, I visit her as much as I can. She is the oldest person in Romania and the second oldest person in Hungary, although she is not confirmed yet.
She told me so much about her life and how she went through all the hardships ever since, I wrote in a journal everything I learned from her.
She had 4 siblings and they all passed away,her husband died 21 years ago at 91. She has been through so much but we who are from her generation we care for her and that she never misses love from us.
wow! 111? that’s amazing! I wish her great health ❤
My great grandma died a few weeks before her birthday, and seeing how your’s lived past 100 made me really happy.
Wow, that's amazing!! So cool you're writing her story, too! Maybe she'll end up the oldest person on earth!! ☺ Cherish her ❤
Wow... Wishing your grandma happiness 🤗❤️🎉
That's crazy. Thanks for your story.
I wish Lesley were alive to see again how much joy her beautiful voice has brought to people again after all these years!
everyones going on about how due to the fact that she's a lesbian she is clearly singing about Judy, y'all are aware she stated in an interview that she wasn't aware of her sexuality during this time right? She came out and realised she was a lesbian well after the 1960s, this song was most likely performed as your average love song with no other intentions behind it. Her later version of 'You Don't Own Me' in the 1980s has much more power, typically I put this down to the fact that she has realised her sexuality at this point and channels this into the performance. At least that makes far more sense than any of her other 60s performances.
I think she was 16/17 maybe a bit older when this happened but realized she liked women when she was I think 20 so thank you for having your facts straight
People like to make shit up to sound intellectual
she can’t be singing about Judy, if she didn’t even write the song? She just is the singer
@@maxstanko I mean if you were a song writer who would you give your song to sing? I know I'd give it to someone who can give it life even if she didn't write it as a song writer you're gonna want to give it to someone who breathes life into the music and she does there is a point though you as the singer would need to put your meaning behind it as well to be able to put emotion into it

Love “It’s My Party” but when she sings “She’s a Fool” at 1:14 I’m just so impressed by this 16 year old girl from NJ. Lesley Gore is a legend.
She wanted Judy all the time I you know how look at her life story up she didn’t live in a closet the woman she lived with for about thirty years she made it plain that was her lover I could careless I loved her music you would think a real fan would know this
Yes.
Yea
She is a lesbian anyways so yeah
So... Was she lying to herself? Why would write songs about wishing a male was hers then?

@@mm4843 says u
The way she says "Judy's wearing his ring" just scratches my brain
What an incredible voice, it really shines live
Shortly after Gore's death, Judy Solash, the daughter of the hit's songwriter Seymour Gottlieb, told the New York Daily the story behind the song's catchphrase. It was actually inspired by a tantrum Solash threw before her own Sweet 16 party.
Apparently Solash's parents told her her grandparents had to be invited to the party and she didn't want them there so she started crying and her father told her to stop. Her response was: "It's my party and I'll cry if I want to."
Quite a funny origin for such an iconic catchphrase😂
I saw her perform about 16 years ago in San Francisco. She was promoting her new album and was wonderful. I got to meet her after the performance. Lovely human being. It was a huge thrill. I went with three friends--all of us were big fans of hers. A memorable experience!

She belongs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Not to have died in NYC with 50K to her name after selling millions of records and empowering women worldwide. If you want to know what young girls in the early 1960s were thinking and feeling, listen to this lady's greatest hits.

well thank god she wasn’t, because she has true talent, unlike the new artists today lmfao, anybody could be a fucking singer with the right tech. also with modern tech it, it wouldn’t really be her true voice, they’d just add stupid fucking sounds to it like all songs these days.

Nah it wouldn't be the same
@@beccataylor5147 blame it on the sound engineers, bruhv. They're the ones that fix and polish the voices of today's generation. Well, partial blame on the artists as well but some artist don't use technology and just let their voice crack and do it's thing - they're just not as popular as others (best example, Jack Stauber, Mitski, Wilburr Soot, etc.)
They don't have talent like this these days. Thanks Leslie for you wonder contributions to music!
14 when I saw Leslie on the The Ed Sullivan Show. Yup she was electrifying.
If none of this performance was pre-recorded, that was a heckuva live presentation. Vocal, custom arrangement, live orchestra and mixed chorus- they came loaded for bear on that one!
Playbyplaymedia Thats how Ed Sullivan and Variety shows did it. Pit Orchestra, and vocalist backups. Quite live. You can see Leslie, pressing her tongue against her teeth. while enunciating her very clear letter, 'L,' in 'fool.'. She was so very talented. If you ever watch the 60's Batman show, she played a mouse costumed character, with Cat Woman on an episode. They have her song, CA nights, on it.
@@ivangranger8494 If there wasn't a pre-recorded track she was singing live to (and it sounds like the Ray Bloch orchestra is live), I wonder where the backup singers were and why they didn't show them. We also rarely got to see the Ray Bloch orchestra. On Sullivan, many solo artists like Leslie here, didn't hold a mic, or stand near one. It appears they used an overhead microphone here.
Shave- a-thon The same reason why we do not see the Orchestra, probably. The focus is on her. Ed Sullivan was a perfectionist, with a huge sense of humor. Did you get to see the one 'Whats my line, when he is the secret guest and wears a monster mask, so when they take of their masks, they must have gotten quite a jolt. The more I think of it, the same must go for commenters with my chosen face identity. " I am not the man, in the picture.". 😅
Ed Sullivan was such a perfectionist and looked down on prerecorded singing, that when an artist requested not to sing live he would ask the label to send out a four track copy of the master tape from the studio, and they would mix reverb and microphone feedback into the mix to make the audio appear live. He would also turn the live mics on so even when they were singing to a track they picked up their voice too. You can hear that clearly on all of the Mamas & Papas performances.
@@benkleschinsky Where did you read the bit about the 4 track master? The board for audio that CBS was using in the Sullivan control room didn't have the facilities to even play back a four track master, unless you're intimating that Sullivan's people sent out the tape to dub in reverb and then mix it down to one track and keep the mikes open for a live ambient sound while the band did the lip syncing. After 1965, alot of bands were lipsyncing on Sullivan with some singing live over audio instrumental tracks.
Lesley & the music: 😄🥳🙌🧚♀️💃💛💗
the lyrics: 😭😢🥺💔😫☹😒😠
I was like whut the whole situation in the song is so sad and she has the happiest face ever like wow 😆
Don't know why but listening to this song puts an instant smile on my face

It's unbelievable how she was singing literally live and it sounds so frickin good💫✨
She was amazing 🤩

If I were her Johny, i'd never leave her. Look at her, this is pure angel
trust me he found better i’m right next to him
So cute and simple and true lyrics ❤️Unlike today
Years later, The Science and Power of SNL located her and found out she's a variant of a powerful superhero who has a movie not a lot of people enjoy.
NAUR NOT BRI LARSON 😭
@@minniemoore266 HELP

The fact that I know exactly what you're talking about 💀💀
wabble de wabbling
She had a smile that would knock your socks off
I was a little girl when this song came out. It is so sad that today’s generation and future generations will never understand the simplicity of the time. What a difference. It seems as if it was only yesterday!
Im from Gen Z. I love this song so much! It’s way better than it’s sings today to be honest 🙂
You guys were lucky. Things are getting worse!
I’m 13!! I love this song so much!!
Awesome ... it sure beats today's cRap noise that gets produced.@@StarPlatinum7912
It's my party! 🥳
Judy watching this and seeing herself being called a fool with extra background singers:
👁👄👁
LMFAOOO yess
🤣🤣🤣🤣💀😭
😭😭😭
Nice in these older videos you don't see 500 cuts! They actually hold and let you see them perform without constantly switching angles every two seconds.
Very true
Good point!
IKR????
What a beautiful human being.
Alwayz loved that song...like it’s my birthday and I can do whatever I want ..have a good time or a bad time 🎉 classic
She was so nervous about this performance that she threw up regularly in the months leading up to it 🥺 she had really bad stage fright in the beginning of her career and even had hypnotherapy for it. Shows what a professional she was as it never showed! 👏🏼
She's a great performer! A lovely voice, and she's lesbian, at a time where the civil rights movement was just starting. Another example that I love is Paul McCartney of The Beatles. He has told stories of him literally shaking and saying(I'm paraphrasing here): "This is terrible! Why am I doing this to myself?" There's a really funny story about their performance also on the Ed Sullivan show, a sound engineer asked him "Are you nervous?" He replied: "No." The sound guy then replied "Well, you should be. There are 75 million people watching!"
Yes, Lesley stage fright. Her career took off quickly and she was not prepared for it. Marvin Hamlisch and Dick St. John helped Lesley with her "live" shows.
@@you_tubeslonelyheartsclubband I didn't know she's a lesbian. It's proudly to say that she's one of the best singer in her era. Sadly she past away in 2015 .
She looks so happy and relaxed, I love her
Saw Lesley Gore (2) times at the Detroit Fox Theater and she sang her songs there as good as this recording! Excellent singer with a strong voice!
i love this song
