I am 75 years old. This song came out when I was in the 10th grade. It is my favorite song of all time.
Me too!
Me too. 72 years old.
This song makes me cry everytime I hear it and I'm 74yrs old. Reminds me of my breakup with my highschool sweetie. Will never forget him, he looked like Charlie Sheen didn't act like him though LOL. Thanks again for a memory that is still close to my heart.
It reminds me of my husband that died.
I have one of those memories, too.
To " Kitty hashtag " --------------I too, am now 74 y/o,. going on 75, born 9/24/46. ---------------Spring of '59, this song was THE slow dance number, along with " I Only Have Eyes For You ", & " Put Your Head On My shoulder " ----------------great music, great times, that just went far too fast. --------------------------WolfSky9, 74 y/o
I was surprised as I thought the Skyliners were doing a cover of a 1930's classic song, like the Platters and Flamingos had done. Looked it up and found out they wrote this themselves - very impressive.
Just an old Irish guy that loves your site. Being from Pittsburgh Pa. And growing up in this era I am very familiar with the fabulous Skyliners.
I knew Jimmy Beaumont casually for many years. He passed away a couple of years ago. I saw him perform two years before his death, and his
voice was just as strong as in 1959. Love to you for keeping great old music alive!
I'm also from Pittsburgh and have fond memories of this song being played at those Jr high dances.
I love it when young people listen to and appreciate the wonderful music and talent that I grew up with.
Doo-wap is the genre that truly broke the racial barrier, never knew if who you were listening to was black or white or whoever. I wished it could have lasted longer than it did but the volume of material that came out of that short era is phenomenal.
The sound you were referring to is the piano being used to create the double time, it was typical during the 50's and early 60's Janet Vogel had the range to compliment the song as she reaches high "C' at the end. High "C" is equal the note created by the last key on the piano keyboard which 7th octave of the C notes on the piano. Not many women can hit that note and most were professionally trained to do so. The song is a standard recorded in 1959 by the Skyliners as you have heard it. Never gets old!
Ty, that sound you are referring to is called Doo Wop.
yes indeed now in 2020 we have WAP lol
@@arthurdavis5876 🤣
Try The Platters doing "Smoke Get's In Your Eyes", "Only You", "Twilight Time", "My Prayer" and "Red Sails In The Sunset". Those guys with lead singer Tony Williams were the best of that era.
Everyone who loves this song should listen to "This I Swear " by the Skyliners. Super romantic
This I swear was my wedding song
That song is my favourite Skyliner song.
Both songs are awesome.
Love that female falsetto near the end...it almost sounds like wailing or crying, that complements his "you, you..." BEAUTIFUL.
It makes the song what it is, haunting and beautiful. Janet Vogel was the singer's name.
That "female falsetto" near the end was Janet Vogel, a real female singer..........
That's a woman at the end. MEN sing falsetto. No such thing as female falsetto.
@@veronicadabney1466 I didn't know that. Thanks for the lesson...
I LOVE those Strings in this song. shoutout to the Music Arranger, who wrote those beautiful String Arrangements.
No filters no auto tune just pure voice this guy truly was one of the vocal wonders of that era I still think at some times he sounds like Nat king cole unbelievable
Released in 1958 - 59. I first heard this song on a cassette tape called Oldies but Goodies. The thing that always struck me is that how these doo-wop singers could hit these high notes so easily. The falsetto under his "you...you...you" finish was sung by the female of the group Janet Vogel. Great songs. They are timeless.
Great song! So good...
This is doo-wop music. That's the style you're digging. 😊
I was about to say it, then I saw you saying it. :) I dig that kinda style
yes it is
My favorite type of music.Doo wop was awesome.
Doo Whop the most romantic 🎶 to
slow dance with.
doo-wop is great!
My brother introduced me to doo-wop music. I remember the first one I heard was Little Darling by the Diamonds.
After that I was hooked.
Saw Little Darling, by The Diamonds, on the Ed Sullivan Show. A few years back, children, and I'm 72.
the Skyliners were really classy. I love the famous image, from a record cover I believe, of them posing in front of a Jet airliner. It captured the spirit of their music, which fell somewhere between doo-wop and early 60's pop.
Pretty spot on.
I feel so priveleged to have been around at the time this was new and to experience all genres of music since. What a gift.
Better back then!
Jimmy Beaumont is an underated volcalist. Go and watch his live performances all the way till 2017 just before he passed away in 2017. Even in his 70's he was ripping that high note. Awesome singer.
The high note at the end of the song was the female in the group.
He lost his high notes years ago . RIP Jimmy !
Hey it's the 76 year old grandma, and back in the day honey that was falling in love with the guy your dancing with music. 1950's into the 1960'ssome of the greatest romantic love songs ever. It was a great time to be alive and best of all a teenager, ahhh fond memories.
Amen to that! DoWop was real music--performed by talented singers who just stepped up to the mike and poured out their hearts and souls. There was no auto-tune or other techno-crutch--just talent!
I'm so old, I remember when this song was brand new! I'm so old I can remember when rock and roll didn't even exist! I'm so old I can remember when we beat on hollow logs with heavy sticks to produce rhythmic patterns! every song we listen to here is like music from last week! I can't figure out how everyone else keeps getting younger.
I'm so old I can't remember-------What was I talking about?
i remember this when American Graffiti came out in theaters. hopped in my 64 GTO and went cruzing
I was thinking the same thing. What a great movie.
Song rec idea! Little GTO by Ronny and the Daytonas
@@elizabethcrain5152 I used to woen that one and still listen to it.
I fell in love with Doo Wop music in the 80s from watching the movie Mischief. If you haven’t seen it please do. It’s a hilarious coming of age movie set in 1956 and the soundtrack might just make you fall in love with this type of music as it did me.
And fell in love with Kelly Preston,She was beautiful in that movie:-)
Thank you Ty for this song,, this is why as 70 year old subscribed to you 2 years ago,,you sir are definitely,
"A Renaissance Man", your smart, sincere, honest, and look at people, not for their color, but the content of their soul.
THAT'S THE KIND OF SONG WE LISTENED TO IN THE DRIVE INS, LISTENING TO SOME ELVIS MOVIES, COULDN'T SEE THE SCREEN AS I HAD A PROBLEM WITH MY WINDOWS ALWAYS FOGGING UP! SEEMS LIKE EVERY CAR ALWAYS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM! Must have been lemons, ALL THE SONGS IN THE DO-WOP ERA WERE ABOUT LOVE AS YOU KNOW BY NOW. THESE ARE SONGS YOU NEVER FORGET, AND NEVER FORGET WHO YOU WERE WITH AT THE TIME. Always remember you will always love your girlfriends, all the ones you had, well most of them, love really never fades, and you always hope they had good lives and were happy with their husbands. You will always have pleasant memories of the time you spent with them. growing up with these songs was truly a pleasure. Compare those songs of love to todays. Anyway, I am glad you are enjoying the oldies but goodies of yesterday, I am 76 now and will listen to all the oldies on CZcams and thank all the nice people who download these for us, Have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS to all. Dave
The great thing about these nostalgic songs is, the list is endless. You tap into these for 20 years and still get thousands of views. The music is priceless for many of us.
I know you probably won't see tho a whole year later but you HAVE to listen to "You're Daddy's Home" by Shep & The Limelights, please!?! My dad was a musician & vocalist & he sang this song to me ever since I can remember & tomorrow, May 9th, 1950, would have been his 70th birthday.
P.S., that old white, hillbilly boy could play some "funcked up" bass 🎶☺
A hauntingly beautiful song

the incredible Janet Vogel on those amazing high notes-RIP
Janet's vocals set the Skyliners apart from other doo wop groups. Just a beautiful voice.
That's way before my time, but this song really, really gets to me.
Glad to hear your reactions to the "Oldies" !!
I like this guy’s approach. Direct, intelligent, open-minded, eclectic.
Ty: Still lovin' your videos and your genuine reactions. The Skyliners were an amazing group and when they started, the lead singer, Jimmy Beaumont was amazing. Glad you are diggin' these great oldies. For me, its like getting reacquainted with an old friend. Doc
I love Do-wop!!!! This song by the Skyliners is AWESOME!!!!! Wonderfully performed!!!!! It's sooooo good brings tears to my eyes!!!!!
This was my mom's music. I have fond memories of the two of us dancing around the kitchen singing along to this. Thanks for this! (I'm down the rabbit hole watching your reaction videos. I love that you are so open to new-to-you music. )
At 3:40 you are puzzled by a sound you hear. It is violins being played in "Pizzicato" or being plucked as opposed using the bow across the strings.
I'm in heaven 😻 Thank you! Doowop is the best! Someone finally giving this genre a listen! 🥰❤️
The man to the right rear is Jimmy Beaumont the lead vocalist in this song. The entire Skyliners group, super talented!!
Yes! And I was there! And it was on the radio every 15 minutes and all I wanted was more! Jimmy Beaumont and the Skyliners! Sounds from Heaven!
Oh what a great song, really put me in a nice relaxed mood. The plunk, plunk sounded like the violin being plucked. Great pick, and like you Ty thats going on my playlist
Listening to this great beautiful song 60 yrs or so still get goose bumps
Jimmy Beaumont was one of the greatest singers ever. This i Swear is nearly as good. There's a Moon out Tonight by the Capris is another great doowop song.
If you like that piano intro, check out "Theme From a Summer Place" by Percy Faith. It's instrumental. My memories of this is riding in the backseat of our Lincoln Continental with those oval windows on Sundays headed to The Picadilly Cafeteria from church, and this song always came on the radio at that time. @ModernRenaissanceMan
C Beck I remember the Piccadilly in Memphis over 50 years ago, and Ferguson’s for breakfast ham n red eye gravy mmm
Yep, Piccadilly in Memphis!@@tinypurplefishesrunlaughin8052
You should watch the movie American Graffiti. It is a great movie but also a cavalcade of music of the era, including this. :) It starrs Richard Dreyfuss, Ron Howard, Paul LeMat, DJ Wolfman Jack as himself. You can also spot Harrison Ford in a minor role.
BEAUTIFUL SUCH EMOTION!
I love this song! It reminds me of the film 'American Graffiti'. A movie that is full of great music.
Watch the movie, Tye
Great movie.
'Let It Be Me' by Jerry Butler & Betty Everett, 'For Your Precious Love' & 'Only the Strong Survive' by Jerry Butler and 'I Only Have Eyes For You' by The Flamingos.
I Only Have Eyes for you is by the Flamingos. Great song. I like the version of Let It Be Me by The Everly Brothers. I think that was the original.
@@FFVison Thank you. I'll change the post. The Everly Brothers did a great job on that song but they were great on every song.
@@redneckgirl4116 Cool. Yeah, he actually mentioned Earth Angel in the video. That was by the Penguins or possibly by Marvin Berry featuring Marty McFly back in 1955, depending on your timeline. Also a phenomenal song.
@@FFVison Yes it is.
The Flamingos' 'I Only Have Eyes For You' still gives me goose bumps - it's absolutely ethereal. Peter and Gordon actually did a pretty good 'Let It Be Me' too.
From McKeesport PA. They started out as a street corner do wop group......playing at local high schools and colleges. This was a romantic era where women, unlike today, were placed on a pedestol. Every town back then had groups such as this.....Georgia Goodman and the Headliners, The Jaggers, the Marcels, The Vogues, The Electrons, The Flamingos, .............just a few of the groups that played in and around Pittsburgh. All soul, all do wop.
This song was one of my mom n dad's favorite songs. Makes me cry when I hear it. I'm 60 now and they passed away a few years ago but I still miss them. We were a close family after all.
I'm loving these 50s,60's and 70's reactions. In Australia every Saturday night I remember as a kid in the 80s my parents playing Saturday night jukebox with the 50's,60'sand 70's
Ty, you are so right about that era. The music was awesome and the living was clean, fun and respectful of others. You can now live that time vicariously through the music. So happy you enjoy it and play it for us because your reactions are priceless.
Very nicely expressed! Clean fun and respect for others made people much happier than they are today.
I love your reactions.
They really cheer me up.
Gorgeous voices and a wonderful song!
The female vocalist with the amazing range is Janet Vogel.
Check out "I Only Have Eyes for You" by the Flamingos. I love this era as well.
Chip DaMutt, I asked for that Flamingos song months ago, myself. It’s definitely one of my all time favorites, even though I wasn’t even born in that era.
Add my vote for "I Only Have Eyes for You"...and almost anything from the DoWop era.
@Chip DaMutt...Always loved this song as well as their song This I Swear but I almost wish I had not Googled this group and not done some digging into the death of Janet Vogel because I now know how tragically her life ended when she was only 37.
@@9284vr I read about that a few years ago and it broke my heart.
U should listen to “This I Swear” and “I’ll Go My Lonely Way” by the Skyliners.. this is my era of music and I have a whole library of the “oldies” called doo-wop! I love it. There’s nothing like it!
6/8 time became popular in the late 50s/ early 60s. Always loved that time signature.
Yes, love it so much I had to join an oldies group on FB. We share all these kinds of songs, from actually, 1940 to 1969, It is so much fun.
Classic Doo Wop from the Spring of '59, I was 12 y/o, in 7th grade. RIP, Jimmy BEaumont, & Janet Vogel, & any other Skyliners who have passed. ------------MJL< 75 y/o
Lol! Half the fun in watching these reaction videos of yours is not only because of the great music, but your reaction to them. Simply priceless!Hard to believe you never heard some of these songs. 😊Yep, you're feeling what what we felt, those of us from that time in history.
Those were the best days of my life...born 1950 in Brooklyn, New York. You have no idea how great it was growing up at that time. Love your channel and God Bless You pal!
Those high notes at the very end were produced by Janet Vogel, in her full soprano voice!
The song is even more amazing because Jimmy Beaumont, the lead male singer, was only 17 when he and Joe Rock wrote it. Janet Vogel was 15 when she and the guys sang it. The group were friends from the Pittsburgh area. Jimmy lived in McKeesport, PA. All generations and people love this song as soon as they hear it. It was a far better time back then.
Please Love Me Forever by Cathy Jean and The Playmates. My husband played this song for me when we first met over 50 years ago.
Great harmony and sick crooning! Thanks for getting to this one! Some of my other favorites from that era that I’d love for you to react to are One Summer Night by The Danleers, Since I Met You Baby by Ivory Joe Hunter, I’m in Love Again by Fats Domino, My Prayer by The Platters, The Great Pretender by The Platters, and These Arms of Mine by Otis Redding!!!
“The Dupree” you’re going to like the Dupree if you liked this. The song is “You belong to me.”🤙🏽
YES!
@@sisuboy also "Have You Heard"..by The Duprees.... my favorite.
Love this song ❤️ I'm sure you will as well Ty 👍👍👍
The Skyliners came to our hometown when this song was popular and we went crazy! I was a teenager and they asked my best friend and I to go to their hotel room. My sister's boyfriend was in a rock and roll band and he heard them and he put a stop to that in a hurry!!!
3/5/21 New Orleans
OMG one of my favorites back then. Love dancing to this. Glad you enjoyed your oldies! This is why we enjoyed Oldies But Goodies! You're so right. I lived that era. Still do today!
Request:
Since I Met You Baby is the song
Love this song !! ... They also have another great song called "This I Swear" ..... it's used in the movie "La Bamba" About Ritchie Valens
Didn't know you had reacted to this, probably before I found you.. So happy I stumbled across it tonight, I love the Skyliners, but I', hoping to find something to make people remember Janet Vogel. She was so incredibly talented and had such a hard life. But if you listen to the song all he way through - it belongs to her. When she hits that note on the end --
Janet Vogel provided the coloratura soprano vocal at the end.
Johnny Maestro and the Brooklyn bridge "Sixteen Candles and also Worst thing that could happen"
Awww, my music 🎶 I grew up on these great songs with people who could actually "sing" no need to use all the latest gadgets to make them sound like they can sing. The voices were so clear & I love these oldies too. The Platters had my heart as a kid 💝💝💝
YAY! 😀👍 It's going on your playlist 🤗 so happy,I like that kind of music too..I was a little girl in the 60s so you have an idea of how ancient I am 😂 a nice reaction Ty 👍👍👍
This is one of the greatest songs of all times. It was released in 1958. I was in the 7th grade. The home of the Skyliners was Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. I grew up in Pittsburgh
so the Skyliners were a local group. Everything they touched turned to gold. Try reacting to "This i Swear". Also a great sound!! The voice of Jimmy Beaumont is hard to match.
I had the privilege of knowing Jimmy. Unfortunately Jimmy died a couple of years ago. Until the end he continued to appear and he sounded exactly like he did in 1958.
janet Vogel had that sensational female voice in the group. Sadly She passed away from suicide. Thank you for being so attentive toward to the golden age of music. The 1950`s
Love all of your reactions. Hail to Pittsburgh and the Fabulous "Skyliners"!!
'OLDIES RULE'
Youd love some Cruisin' Oldies.
When singers actually knew how to sing ,long before the invention of Autotune. When Jimmy Beaumont bumps his vocals up several octaves on the last full verse it sends chills down my spine every time I hear this song , and I’ve been hearing it since I was seven years old. I’m 69 now.
this was a great song a fun era i was there a city boy exploring the music at that time i love all your work my support for moe ..thanks jovan east coast
You've got to check out "Twilight Time" by the Platters. . .
Heavenly shades of night are falling, it's twilight time
Out of the mist your voice is calling, it's twilight time
When purple colored curtains mark the end of day
I'll hear you, my dear, at twilight time
Deepening shadows gather splendor as day is done
Fingers of night will soon surrender the setting sun
I count the moments darling till you're here with me
Together at last at twilight time
Here, in the afterglow of day, we keep our rendezvous beneath the blue
Here in the same and sweet old way, I fall in love again as I did then
Deep in the dark your kiss will thrill me like days of old
Lighting the spark of love that fills me with dreams untold
Each day I pray for evening just to be with you
Together at last at twilight time
Classic Doo opp
My prayer
This song is a rarity because it went higher on the R&B chart (#3) than it did on the pop chart despite that the group was white. Great harmony. Lead Jimmy Beaumont died last year (2020) and all of Pittsburgh was saddened by his passing. Pitt remains the national center for group harmony oldies and the Skyliners was their most famous group. Sad to say, Janet Vogel, who hit the extraordinary high note at the end of the song, died by suicide. Pitt tradionally had no tolerance for silly racism and two of that city's most popular groups, the Del-Vikings and the Marcels, were racially integrated, which was something you seldom found at that time except in the Bronx (e.g., Robroys) and Brooklyn (e.g., Crests) boroughs of New York City.
I totally loved his facial expressions from 3:05 - 3:15. They reminded me of a vocalist who was slipping into his muse....totally in the moment.
Another GREAT ONE, you are hitting home runs tonight. Now this song brings back memories of when I was in elementary school and my grandpa would drop me off at my favorite movie theater, it was my favorite because for about 10 to 15 minutes before the movie would start they played 50s and 60s music and I LOVED IT! sometimes a song got cut off because the movie was starting and get mad because I didn't get to hear the rest of the song
I love your reaction to this song. It makes me happy that you like it. You said you wished you lived at that time. Luckly, I did. I'm 71 now. I was born in Pittsburgh, PA and the Skyliners were from Pittsburgh too. This song came out in 1958 and because the were a hometown group, they played this song on the radio a lot. I still love it. And it really was a great time to be alive.
Good one man!.....And I love the way you let it play out before giving your assessment.
I'm from the same time period as that song, and it's nice to see a younger generation's reaction.
My man you ask what can I say ? Here's what I can say..........this is one of the greatest ballads in popular music EVER !!;!!!!
The Brian Setzer Orchestra did a really good cover of this song.
Amen, amen man!
This right here is my Mom & Dad's music. Both of them of them are gone. But I know that they up there dancing so it's ok. Great song. Take care and stay safe 😷
Great! It was my Moms era. It was a great dance song they played at the dance halls.
Love this song.
Ty. I grew up on this music (and sang it) and it's good to see young people today digging it. This is a doo-wop ballad under the umbrella of R&B. Other doo-wop were uptempo. But if you dig this kind of sound, man, there were ten thousand R&B doo-wop vocal groups who recorded from 1953 to about 1964. That comes to 100,000 recordings. You, my friend, have an entire world of songs waiting for you.
Reminds me of my youth . I think I was 16 or 17 years old then.
We had some of the best music back then
Oldies but goodies
Love this song!! I can remember my dad playing it on his old stereo record player.
Sounds like a clarinet in there....nice tasty add in the mix.....loved this!
A lot of the old music was great. Still worth looking up. And listening too.
Brings me back, way back, when I was a kid. Wonderful
As an afterthought I thought might like this song from the era of a few years before doowop. It was written in 1953. This live version by Lorrie Morgan was recorded 50 plus years after it was written Apparently in 2008. Or at least posted on youtube in 2008.
Jimmy Beaumont RIP.
Wish we can bring that back again. Love this song, of course.
I only remember these songs from the 50's because I had an older sister. Oh the days of the 'can cans' and penny loafer shoes. I'm glad I got to experience those through my sister. Thanks for the memories Ty! :)
omg great sing along music.. takes me back
SMOOTH as warm butter.
Love that your open to all era's of music
So true that era had fantastic music just love it!! Thanks for another great song and another great reaction!!!!!
