people voted for Sonny as Mayor of Palm Springs and in retrospect I gather his early demise was due to having to deal with the housewives of Palm Springs
Sonny is such a sweet and introspective young boy, then he is a young man, then an old man and then he is dead. Thank God, thank God, we still have Cher. She was Cher then and she is still Cher now.
shez to good for him in real life he only cared about himself and the money he made and the buisness thats y cher left his srry ass i lov cher she a beut.
@peacock9757 In the beginning Cher needed Sonny, without Sonny there is no Cher. Confidence in who you are is a big step on the road to stardom. It's that kick in the ass we all need to reach the next plateau! Where's my Sonny Bono! Instead I choose to drink and dream of what! Ambition is a bitch!
@peacock9757 Sonny loved Cher very much. He was a very talented songwritter. Niether of us can talk about thier MARRIAGE as we didnt know them and have no clue what did or didnt happen in THIER relationship. Maybe your just jelious Cher once loved him and he had her and you never will.
@nirvanajam2210 Agreed! Music is such an abomination with Gaga, Nicki Minaj, ETC...so tired of these artists trying to out do the old generations! And what pisses me off is when they cover songs from the 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s...ugh! It infuriates me to see good music 'remixed'.
@pbrick6301 Well, she wasn't 11...LOL. She was underage though. However, she lied to him about her age for a while. She told him she was 18, when in reality she was 16 when they met.
I had heard at the time when they first broke into the Biz. Cher claimed to have hand sewed the clothes her self! That was in the media at the time I remember. Does any one else remember?
@TheGB1950 They had a couple of girls who worked for them that made their clothing in the early days. Cher designed the outfits, and the girls made them.
Cher had plastic surgery.. (teeth fixed, etc.) after this... as you probably can see the difference... She DIDN'T take it too far... maybe after 50 or 60, but earlier she just had the things she didn;t like about her face done... and everyone has their teeth fixed.. (well most people... she eventually had a few other things done... but it was not exaggerated. just saying!!
one of the things that almost killed their career was that sonny bono was very anti-drug use......he even made public service announcments for TV spots. Not a popular thing to do if you are in the music business during the drug drenched hippy era
Ça tranche avec la dégaine hippy de Sonny et la coupe sexy de Cher... Mais ça swing, c'est in et il y a du beat ! Simple et efficace. Ça nous changeait de Johnny et Sylvie ou Dutronc à l'époque....

Que bonita pareja cuando se iva a imaginar Sonny que despues ella iva hacer mas famosa que el. Me encanta esta mujer como canta y como baila ricooooooo ... Gracias por compartir estos bellos recuerdos!!!
@smackdaddyken Since th song wasn't recorded until 1967, 1967 would be correct. The year I was 3 years old. After it was released, from examing Billboard magazines later, the song quickly went up the charts.
@z2153 I disagree, Sonny wore those kinds of clothes all the time. I don't think he would have if he were embarresed by them. The fur jackets and vests were his trademark. Cher looks totally cool. The hair and the overdone eyes are great.
1997Roscoe since nobody answered your question but just put you done for asking it I thought I would.The man in the beggining is speaking French not Spanish as and they are probably in Montreal I am guessing.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@1997Roscoe Are you a real fucking idiot! Listen to the dialect hes speaking in. Get off youtube and cock sucking every now and again and get some god damned education!
I just saw Cher live in Las Vegas at Caesar's. It was actually pretty cool the way she did this song. Cher sung the live parts, and they had a big TV screen with Sonny singing his lines. It came across GREAT! The funny thing is, I'm really not a Cher fan, however, I have now paid big bucks TWICE to see her in Vegas. Her show is *that* good.
love these two!!
Grew up watcing Sonny and Cher--loved it!!
