Great song, weird video. Neil looks like a waxwork or a cartoon.

[TheShizue777]

Love Neil Sedaka! I always play this song in February to remind myself that there was a time when we knew how to pronounce February." Thank you Neil "Fe-broo-ary" Sedaka. Happy Valentine's Day!

[Sincopare]

I love the personality of Miss February-June-September.

[FredericaBimble]

@hartmuthackl - One of those is his wife and think it might be Miss August if I remember correctly..They've been married for a LONG time.

[hartmuthackl]

@FredericaBimble - thanks. i rewatched it now and August is January & December with a black wig. But i think Miss March/May/November is his wife Leba.

[vladimirlenin1]

[MrShingalooFilms]

@Johnaxl666 I thought the same, And the dance moves!

[vuacanlong]

@Johnaxl666 he actually looks like Quagmire. Especially singing this song lol

[Miguel53de]

@Johnaxl666 interesting tip. LOL

[andrewstunna08]

[expatted]

[inz50lit]

Beautiful girls! From my point of view, in those times they showed their perfect bodies, don't need a surgeon! Too natural!

[bpoolbry]

god  they will all be shrivelled up now

[PhyscoZombieChickie]

I LOVE August

[FoxPlant2006]

Don't tell Glee about this song. They've ruined too many classics already.

[spcb77]

@FoxPlant2006 I agree.

[vondozify]

[kookooboy]

[TheChuck624]

...and off to Vietnam I went. Jeesh, I'm getting old. Thanks for posting this all the same.

[drewberryphelps]

nice dance move! hehe :)

[radwint19]

the girls in this video are so beautiful!!

[sharms888]

@radwint19 Thats because they're real, not constructed out of silicone.

[jeembomb]

wow some fine fucking ladies here

[lundtoft1]

Early 60s Pop/Rock & Roll music was no different to the late 50s. It wasn't until we got into the mid 60s that everything changed. this video looks to me like it's made in '66.

[TheKat027]

Guys back then indeed looks well groomed,clean and healthy... and also girls don't look slutty and fake.

[chiva21x]

Nice Song, amazing pretty girls!

[fran9860]

neil; classic.

[rancyland]

@killergirls - I think you're mistaken in your identification of one of the dancers as Barbara Eden - take another look and compare a little closer.

[benjamin1cs]

Best. Dancing. Ever.

[LaWoman071]

This is so good : )

Holding hands meant something back then...

[JB0904]

I love this song n video..Neil has swagg lol

[georgesorosisgay1]

american woman are beautiful any time of year

[RolandfionaRuby123]

thats a good song and well done too

[schwebbs84]

When they dance and the set moves ... lol

[syzygywell]

I know Neil is straight.. but sometimes its really hard to believe. Nelly heteros and butch homos tis all good though.

[jenemmamarie]

of course needs a group of bitches in his video lol

[FredericaBimble]

@jenemmamarie - Is that really how you'd like to communicate with the world? Is that how you'd like to appear? I would LOVE to see you in a room full of people over the age of 75 just to watch you grow into a better person as they express their disappointment in you. You see, it isn't "you," it is those around you who have let you down. No one has corrected your word usage.

[NOTgarycoleman]

Masterbation makes you go blind. Quit obsessing about 'Calendar Girls'. Sick! Sick Sickness online ! Pulling pud to this song all day long. Sick!

Yeeh! yeeh!

[mollymitch1]

@NOTgarycoleman What a "SICK" comment. get out of the gutter.

[HappyTheShim]

.............................

[shilohrob]

One of the girls looks like Terri Garr. She is the one on the left in the last scene.

[123IOWNALL321]

Rofl, this is the whitest video I've ever seen.

What a pimp!

[123IOWNALL321]

Rofl, this is the whitest video I've ever seen.

What a pimp!

[90210spaz]

sedaka 1st artist to bring the 7th cord into pop music, also calender girl first color video also a first multi track vocals. lets just say kids sedaka back then was like gaga changing head gear?. the 300 million in the bank singer sedaka still plays music without Lables or fame. He just loves music go see him.no cash no image just 100% music

[powergirl901]

[wolgreth]

Love the March Girl!!!!

[cboncklis]

My sister use to go crazy over his music and I don't blame her. I always loved his style. Fresh, simple and never pretentious.

[keliata]

he's a wonderful, wonderful performer! And super cute! He still is. Look at the joy on his face as he sings, plays the piano and dances along with the girls. Now that's charisma

[smartgirl42727]

@keliata you suck eggs dumb ass

[smartgirl42727]

@smartgirl42727 you are so cool

[keliata]

@smartgirl42727 whatever

[wackokicker]

@auroralight40 of course my horse :p

[jeff62rey]

What is interesting that yes by today's standards this is tame and 'prudish', but the 'times they were already changing." This was done in 1966, and sexual mores were starting to loosen quite a bit. Notice the bathsuit costumes and the sex appeal exuded by the monthly models. This would have been condemned in 1956.

[ellen38muziek]

CUTE VIDEO NEIL!

[horarwgt]

This is NOT a '50s recording. "Calendar Girl," Neil's eighth of 37 career hits (1958-1980), debuted the week of December 19, 1960 and peaked at #4 over a 15 week chart run. Neil's a very nice guy -- I've met and interviewed him multiple times -- and this Scopitone is really quite good and in excellent shape. Neil appears to be miming here to his original hit recording (RCA Victor 7829) rather than tp any kind of remake.

[kangadillo]

Neil Sedaka is so cutesy-wootsy he makes me barf.

[FredericaBimble]

@kangadillo - I think he's totally sexy. There are few things sexier than an intelligent man who is focused on what he enjoys doing with his life. He also - if you're SEEING and not looking to judge with your limited scope of understanding - obviously likes the women in the video and they find him attractive too. What? Do you like your men dull and boring? To each his own, obviously. Leave the Neil Sedaka's for me, please.

[Adoraa1]

auroralight 40 all what you written is absolute true! I salute you!

[TradingTutor]

@auroralight40 Today's society is decadent because of the media, liberalism, multiculturalism... These factors all made this society a decadent one. In the past there were Christian values (not that I'm religious, but I know how Christianity made people have good values), not these decadent liberal values of today.

[CGCupcakes66]

ok i like 50's music but this man is ever so slightly creepy!

[killergirls]

June and September is Definitely the gorgeous Barbara Eden.

[billy1212ist]

@killergirls -NO,it is NOT,Barbara Eden,Google it and see.

[killergirls]

@billy1212ist If it is not Barbara Eden...then perhaps YOU know who she is? There's no mention of her in google...mr wise guy.

[billy1212ist]

@killergirls Mr.Wise Guy ? Well aren't YOU,butch ? Barbara Jean Morehead- is "Barbara Eden",and Google has plenty about her and lots of photos too.Look at Barbara Eden's pictures ,and then this girl in the song with Neil,you will easily see Barbara is allot prettier,well,to me anyway.Who the girl in the song IS,is not the question.Only that,..she IS NOT Barbara Eden.If YOU care,write to Neil's fan club,or something.

[killergirls]

@billy1212ist  OK Billy. Thanks for your input.

[1970Dobby]

@killergirls No it is NOT Barbara Eden, although it looks like the actress who played Carol Post on

Mr. Ed, though I can't recall her name.

[CWA61]

@killergirls Nice call!

[back2backband1]

@killergirls I just noticed that? is that really her?

[portlimon7]

This video is so white and so blond! Yet it is so cute and heavenly done!! It also warms the heart with such endearing lyrics, melody, and virtuosity. Now I see why Neil Sedaka was one of my favorite singers of the musically, glorious 60's, along with Brenda Lee, Nat King COle, Dinah Washington, Brook Benton, and others.

[KingOAnime]

Pure classic!!!

[R0CKGURL]

Neil Sedaka is very talented he writes alot of his own music :D

[MrRanwolfe]

July has the best legs look at the dance in 129 frame Februray is next

[Striker2477]

@auroralight40 I know exactly what you mean why cant things be like the 60's such a beautiful and peaceful time to be a teen growing up!!!

[beatlestoneful]

That one blond looks just like "i dream of jennie"Barbra Eden.

[NoirFan01]

@beatlestoneful I'm pretty sure the blond who plays June/September is Barbara Eden. The timeframe of this song supports that.

[FritzOmnibus]

I love these but do you HAVE to put your obnoxious logo on during the program? --why not simply before against a black background?

[tiekj]

2:35 pervert face expression

[WhitewallProduction1]

I like how his suit randomly changes color three times while he's playing the piano, and then it turns into a tux at the end.

[BobbyR454]

@WhitewallProduction1 - That is a accomplished by multiple recordings of the song during production with costume changes and splicing the different video tapes together in the editing process, thereby having a continuous audio and video playback with him wearing different tuxedos.

Either that or magic. You choose whichever explanation works best for you.

[chicagoSUGANO]

Yikes the rock videos  really were different then. Everyone looked so Well- groomed, Clean & Healthy. Today's perormers look vermin infested.

[MyDreamside]

@chicagoSUGANO i wouldnt say that,yes in the 50's they were well-groomed but then in the 60's they had started to have more the freaky look

[FLResort]

We are thrilled to be having Neil in concert September 10, 2011

[Appleholic1]

Neil was one of the Kings of early Rock n Roll not only because he had a ton of great hits but because he wrote his own music Back then the songwriters of Rock n Roll didn't have a lot of previous Rock N Roll music to influence their music so it was all a purely original sound. Although his music is considered pop rock it is still Rock n Roll and Neil is one of Rock n Rolls creative founding fathers. Neil Sedaka without any doubt whatsoever certainly belongs in the Rock n Roll hall of fame.

[beatlestoneful]

@Appleholic1 HE'S NOT???Thats too bad...he desrves to be there!!!NEIL did alot of what they use to call"ice cream chords"but for him they were new!!

[cioretta]

neil is gorgeous..carinooooooooooooooo­ooooooo ;-* muack

[lazydays11]

neil was married to april in real life

[miguelpajuelo2002]

@lazydays11 are you sure, , the girl on rabbit custome? where did you get that information? and what is her name?

[TWilson6250]

MS. August is HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[triggersshmitt]

@TWilson6250 August è una figa della madonna!!!

[sonnyjim2001]

wtf 0:14  ......................

[tyson55]

They all look like Kate Bosworth!



[IStillLoveLucy111]

How did he manage to change costumes so quickly?

[endymion067]

MS. JANUARY LOOKS LIKE TAYLOR SWIFT!

[FearCorporation]

Omo, this is so cute~! ^^^^^

Lovely voice, and girls so pretty, luv this~!

[atlatahuac]

corny, cheesy, sweet, innocent, rhythmic, witty and utterly and completely DEEEE-lightful. Gadd, thanks Neil. I am going on line to get your greatest hits ... geeze, how many cd's will that be? And those young ladies!!! Beee you teeful eyefuls yet so quintessentially girls-next-door dream boats.

[baldy194859]

i don,t understand it either, banner. he should be right along beside all the other greats.

[AnnaAnecdote11]

I love his dance moves;D

[Melesandro]

And Then?

[LIBERTYTREE98]

I watched this video about 30 times during the last two days.I will never tire of

watching this video!

[LIBERTYTREE98]

The April calendar girl is adorable!

[WizardGlik]

I dance like Neil.

[CDiddles]

@auroralight40 "We didn't put people down"

unless they were black or "communists." Guess people are always awful to each other.

[wackokicker]

@CDiddles lol, or gays... or sons of divorced parents... or jews, catholics or Italians... :p

[fastasyoucan1]

"You're the Easter Bunny when you smile."

[lordarion1]

I love how clean and wholesome-looking everything was. People didn't air out their problems on talk or reality shows. They had enough class to keep it private. I was lucky to be a kid in those days. The "Hippie Counterculture" movement really screwed things up! That was the beginning of the end of Decency.

[LIBERTYTREE98]

@lordarion1,I agree.

[captivatedlady]

wonderful upload, thanks so much!

[hibob418]

Holy shit - I'd heard of this clip but never seen it - made for the Scopitone machines in the 60's. They were jukeboxes that played music off of 16mm films inside the machine, and these clips are the forerunners to today's music videos. They had one at a truck stop we used to gas up at when I was a kid.

Thanks so much for posting.

[MrPinaka]

wow real women, unlike today zzzzzzz

[wackokicker]

@MrPinaka february is the most beautiful

[coomason5]

@auroralight40 Congratulations to you both! It is so refreshing to hear a marriage can still last this long and be still be a 'honeymoon'!

[coomason5]

@auroralight40 Amen to that! You seldom hear good words spoken or read anymore without a lot of four letters words that are not necessary.

[Ray0469]

*sigh*...People always comment about these days and those days...I don't care when a good piece of music is from, I just enjoy the music. And for those codgers who continually rant about the wholesomeness and morality of the good old days check out where neils eyes are at 2:23. Do you honestly think he's checking what colour her eyes are ?

[coomason5]

He's a doll!! It's a shame that because his voice didn't change and get real deep, people around here (where I'm from) thought he was gay. How pathetic!

[baldy194859]

i remember being a teen in the 50s.

[donn409]

Neil is fantastic!

[namroncoka]

JANUARY LOOKS A LOT LIKE TAYLOR SWIFT :)

[tstrahle]

@namroncoka She totally does.

[MaGs138]

i wish i was born durin the 50s era instead of todays

[09bnunez]

I THINK HE WAS LOOKING AT PLAYBOY ..THE ISSUES THAT HAVE THE 60S CALENDERS IN IT

[Gangstrbrt96]

one of the best music video

[ballinfool924]

neil sedaka was a playa haha;)

[lincolnfan539]

the piano changes color

[Geraldon1]

I couldn't stop laughing when his jacket changed.

[Gabsi1414]

I dont really want that christmas gift do you ??? see at 2:07 to 2:12 and tell me !!!

[emncaity]

January--chow chow chow CHOW chowwww

February--chow....

[yankeear]

Too Hip, I really dig that one fingered piano solo.

[Jontenn]

Since he won't go into the dancing hall of fame, maybe we should put him in the rock and roll hall of fame.

[cpufukr]

GAYYYYY SONG..BUT A CLASSIC...LOL...AGAIN..GGGAYYY­YY!!!

[Chronics88]

@cpufukr Ur gay for watching a video that you don't even like~!

[ambotnimu122]

@cpufukr ur'e gay! neil sedaka got great MUSIC.u shouldn't tell dat thing.

i think if your on that stage i bet ur moves are CLUMSY>!

[jpflores67]

I think its adorable. Notice that women back then were considered attractive if they were tan....much like today.

[JayBBluejay]

The song was recorded in 1961, but the Scopitone clip has a 1966 copyright. If the clip was made in 1966, Neil didn't yield to the charms of the ladies in the video. He had been married for 4 years (and is still married to the same woman-2012 will mark the 50th anniversary).

[MonkeeBrett]

Spectacular.....Everyday of the year!
