  • 1963....#1 U.S. Billboard Hot 100, #12 UK Singles Chart, #3 Canada, #1 New Zealand
    Original video edited and AI remastered with HQ stereo sound.
    "Walk Like a Man" is a song written by Bob Crewe and Bob Gaudio and originally recorded by the Four Seasons.
    The song features the counterpoint of Nick Massi's bass voice and the falsetto of lead singer Frankie Valli. It was their third number one hit, initially reaching the top of the Billboard Hot 100 on March 2, 1963, remaining there for three weeks. "Walk Like a Man" also went to number three on the R&B singles chart.
    During the sessions that produced the hit recording, the fire department received an emergency call from the Abbey Victoria Hotel (the building that housed the Stea-Phillips Recording Studios). As producer Bob Crewe was insisting upon recording the perfect take, smoke and water started to seep into the studio; the room directly above the studio was on fire, but Crewe had blocked the studio door. He continued recording until firemen used their axes on the door and pulled Crewe out.
    The song "Walk Like a Man" is part of The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll list.

    Walk, walk, walk, walk
    Ooh-wee-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
    Walk like a man
    Oh, how you tried to cut me down to size
    Tellin' dirty lies to my friends (ooh-ah, ooh-ah, ooh-ah, ooh)
    But my own father said give her up, don't bother
    The world isn't comin' to an end

And Elvis Presley "Suspicious Minds", and Hall and Oats "You've Lost That "Loving Feeling". And Probably my very first '45 which I won in Preschool, the "Beatles "Got to Get You Into My Life". Yes, I'm starting to feel old now, and darn proud of it too!
