  • I've got a humpty dumpty heart
    I've got a humpty dumpty heart
    I fell for you right from the start
    Humpty dumpty, humpty dumpty
    Humpty dumpty heart
    You've got me sitting on a wall
    You've got me sitting on a wall
    Like Humpty Dumpty
    I'm gonna fall
    Humpty dumpty, humpty dumpty
    Humpty dumpty heart
    All of your kissing
    And all of your hugging
    Can't put my heart together again
    Cause I've got a humpty dumpty heart
    I've got a humpty dumpty heart
    A heart your love has torn apart
    Humpty dumpty, humpty dumpty
    Humpty dumpty heart
    Cause I've got a humpty dumpty heart
    I've got a humpty dumpty heart
    A heart your love has torn apart
    Humpty dumpty, humpty dumpty
    Humpty dumpty heart
    Humpty dumpty heart
    Humpty dumpty heart
    Humpty dumpty heart

    My grandmother loved this woman so much that she named her first child after her.❤

    Her up tempo songs were fun, and some were big hits, but her ballads were something else. She had an absolutely fabulous voice! Atlantic records owes her and Ruth Brown more than words can describe!!

    A great song like that should have topped the charts back then. I can't believe it only reached # 71 on the US charts. It must have not been
    played enough on the radio.

    1957 looks soo much different from 1990 yet the year 2000 doesnt look much different from 2021.

      I think it depends on the era you are from. I can't really tell much difference between the 1930s and the 1940s, however I see a stark difference between 2000 and 2021.

    Wow, that's a great clip, nice to see one of the great underrated 1950s singers in such good quality. This and "Tweedlee Dee" are my favorite LaVern Baker songs. The guy introducing her is the "Father of Rock 'n' Roll" Alan Freed (1921-1965) whose career would soon end in the infamous Payola controversy.

      Same question could be asked of many rock and roll songs. For that matter, it could be asked of lots of pop music, too. What's your point- that songs have to have a moral to them? Perhaps you are confusing songs with fairy tales.

      @@richardwarren8138 Songs are not a random string of words. And any song that you thought was, is a song that went over your head. The meaning of this song, for example, is to be careful not to break a girl's heart which is as fragile as Humpty Dumpty.

      Democrats and Republicans owned slaves and both sides murdered Indigenous People, stole their land and put them on reservations. Prisons were created and reserved for black, brown and yellow people. Not racist? Explain what America is if not the worst of the worst ever to exist under the Sun.

      J B blacks started the Republican Party they just don’t put that in the history books

    • @richardwarren8138
      @richardwarren8138 Před 2 lety

      @@leeltd1229 The reason that is not in history books is that it is not true. The Republican party was an offshoot of the Whig Party, created by Whigs who were disenchanted with their party's "wishy-washy" (at best) stand on abolition of slavery and failure to stand firm against extension of slavery into new territories. While it was created by Whig politicians, the faction that eventually became the Republican Party also included members of the Free Soil party and many Northern Democrats who were increasingly frustrated and angered by the influence of Southerners in the Democrat party. This was all before the Civil War and, in fact, the Republican Party elected a president (Lincoln) before the war. At that time, blacks did not even have the right to vote, much less organize a political party. If you have information that any blacks were involved in the formation of the Republican party, you should name those people and cite the source(s) of your information, but, even if you can do that, it will take a lot more than a few names to support a claim that "blacks started the Republican Party."

      Hopefully, with the reality of the last 5 years under your belt, you have, by now, become much more aware of the pervasiveness of racism in the United States. The very institution of slavery in this country and in the Western Hemisphere was purely racist, as were the laws and customs of America in the century following the end of the Civil War. Segregation was, by definition, racist. Congress has passed scores of laws and Administrations have promulgated countless regulations designed or intended to eliminate or, at least, mitigate the blatant racism that has existed in housing, employment opportunity, schooling and virtually every aspect of American life. And for the most part, those laws and regulations have failed miserably to put a significant dent in our racist culture.

      @@JB-pf3fx The United States of America has undoubtedly been profoundly racist from its earliest days. Still, it is no watering down of the American sin of racism to challenge your assertion that the U.S. is "the worst of the worst ever to exist." We have plenty of very worthy challengers for that dubious distinction.
