[Eddieb715]

This man is amazing! I wish I could meet this man! Love his voice!

[noosmum]

Mymost treasured possesions are my 3 Johnny cds and the hand written envelope they were sent in, and the print outs of the emails and fb messages from him, I love this guy so much he is a diamond amongst men xxxx

[annieopp3]

he could sing the alphabet and i'd be captivated!

[notguerrero]

SWOON.

Noun.

a spontaneous loss of consciousness caused by insufficient blood to the brain

Verb.

1. To faint.

2. To be overwhelmed by ecstatic joy.

Yeah, that about sums it up.

[rmeier30]

Bobby Meier, Johnny was the voice that made Sha Na Na so great.

[buddyeagle]

@rmeier30 I need to agreed with you.

[orangehornet57]

He always sounds nice! Is it just me? But those gold lame suits don't even look comfortable. Has anyone here ever worn one? Dirty Dan must have left by then. Screamin' Scott Simon did double duty on guitar and piano. How come no one else got brought in? A guitar player is a must for a 50s group. I know they got one for the road.

[lightninglady1]

He sure is a brilliant singer and musician!!! He is a terrific guy as are all the guys in the group. He deserves the best of success as they all do for always giving more than your money's worth and being such nice guys to just hang out with!!!!Just saw Bowzer's rock&roll show with Johnny singing also and they both look and sound as good as ever!!

[Tonithenightowl]

@lightninglady1 How lucky you were to hear them! If they ever come to my area I will go in a heartbeat. Johnny has a voice that's off the charts and Bowser is a beautiful baritone with control that is amazing.I would love to see them perform.

[Tonithenightowl]

@lightninglady1 Johnny actually answered my message and I almost had heart failure!!! What a nice man. He's going to be posting ( on my request, can you beat that? ) the show he is doing over the 4th of July in Ca. I told him I wish he would post all his appearances so we on the East Coast don't miss out. Well you know him personally so maybe you can take it in stride but I'm flabbergasted. He's just so wonderful. He couldn't be nicer to his fans.

[MyJustified]

This is good but Dottie West's version is best and this is her song.

[ThisOldCubGal]

Does anyone have the tv show versions of the following songs: Sandy, You Cant Sit Down, Peppermint Twist, Only You, Dream Lover and Donna the Prima Donna? Also, does anyone have the Artificial Flowers skit. If so, PLEASE POST SOON!!! THANK YOU!!!

For 65wendym, tuppy20 & SkippyWalls:

How cool! After all of these years JC has a place in your hearts. Some feelings in our hearts grow stronger with the passing of time - sometimes it's nice to get old :-)

[SkippyWalls]

He just had and still has the most beautiful voice and his face isn't so bad either!

[sweetipie1965]

You are so right Skippy...As perfect as a human performer can get,,

[SkippyWalls]

Ain't it the truth!! Did you see all the negative marks I got on my comment on Crying?? Somebody asked if he was Italian or Puerta Rican and I wrote "Who gives a crap" and I got slammed!!

[sweetipie1965]

How stupid... Like why does it matter if he is Puerto Rican or Italian..(.Which people for the record he is Italian) Just enjoy him....He is a gift from the music gods....

[65wendym]

Oh, Johnny! That voice, that face, those hands, those lips, those eyes.... So TOTALLY want you!!!!!

[SkippyWalls]

Get in line behind me sister!! LOL. have you heard of the Contardoholics? You should join if you heven't yet. We are all crazy for Johnny!!

[tuppy20]

I'm in that line too!! Been there since I was 9 years old!! Getting tired - but he's worth it! :0) oops - i'm telling my age.

[SkippyWalls]

Tuppy, you crack me up. Sometimes I make comments just so I can see what you and Foofsmom write back. Love you both!!

[tuppy20]

You know - that adorable, cute, perfect little man - might have his hands full if ran into to us girls!!

[SkippyWalls]

Just go to contardoholics_anonymous and thats it! You will have so much fun. We are a crazy bunch of women and probably a few men. Everybody loves Johnny!!

[65wendym]

Thank you! Who can blame anyone for loving Johnny? LOL! My 18 yr old son is a big fan. He's so smart!! LOL

[SkippyWalls]

Johnny at his finest!!! What a beautiful voice. Deserved much more solo success

[tuppy20]

Johnny, you are the best!

[CountryFan31]

Great song sung by a great artist.. Dottie West also did this song great justice. #1 smash hit in 1980...

[SkippyWalls]

One of the best singers of all time, no doubt!!

[luvcows1965]

Johnny is just awesome, never got the recognition he deserved.

[bikibitr]

I'd be a lot happier if we could get the friggin' DVDs! Come on!!!!!

[spyoe]

I agree! And include the song "I Love How You Love Me".

[phantomangel21]

I flipped out when I heard the beginning of this song because it came from hissolo album, Changeover. As Tommy's love for Laura, my love for Johnny will never die.

[GrannyJuJu]

Happy Happy

Joy Joy

I can't tell if I just had a hot flash because I'm 46 or from Johnny!

[Genkimark]

Johnny Contardo = The Real Voice behind ShaNaNa!

[stripemister]

Johnny, I'm not new to the game of listening to the greatest sound to ones ear. As a young "pup," you could sure sing. We get a little older, but listening to you on another video singing the difficult song to sing "Those Magic Changes," shows that you have the talent that only a few out there have. Johnny, you are part of musical history, and that will be forever.

[rose6072]

I was a young schoolgirl then when I fell in love with you, JC! And now, I still am in love with you!!!

[bikibitr]

Hearing you sing again makes me happy...very happy.

[rockymonroe]

So happy as I watch Sha Na Na ;) Wonderful voice, Johnny. God bless you!

Fantastic Johnny performance, as always!
